“Enough!” a middle-aged man shouted from near the bed. He was a senior of the West family and Irene’s eldest uncle. Besides Lucius, he was the one who could call the shots. Clark did not dare do anything after hearing him shout. “Connor, this punk is too arrogant! He doesn’t have any respect for the West family at all!” Clark found the whole thing very unfair. “Shut up! How much more do you want to embarrass us?” Connor yelled at him. Clark did not say anything further, but he remained outraged. “Young man, my brother was very rude to you. Please forgive him.” Connor got up and bowed to Dustin apologetically. Dustin let out a huff but did not attack. “Right now, my father is in a critical condition. Once he gets better after the treatment, we will make it up to you.” After that, Connor urged Irene to talk to Dustin. However, Irene was very worried about Lucius and did not leave the room. After a moment, someone led a middle-aged physician into the room. “Dr. P
Dustin had not intended to intervene. He did not care as long as Ryan could wake Lucius from his state. Whether Ryan managed to cure Lucius was none of his concern. However, when he saw the way Ryan planned to treat Lucius, he could no longer stay quiet. If Ryan killed Lucius, Dustin could not find out about the past. “What did you say?” Ryan glared at Dustin. He looked extremely displeased. He was a renowned top grade physician. He could not have some punk question his methods while he was trying to treat a patient. The members of the West family watched in confusion. How could this punk be so bold as to say such a thing? “No matter what you do to treat Mr. West, he will die,” Dustin said flatly. “What nonsense!” Ryan’s face darkened. He was outraged. “Do you know who I am? Do you even know who my teacher is? Who do you think you are to question me?” he spat viciously. “In all of Lovellia, no one other than the enigmatic Medical Sage has the right to ques
“Um… I…” Ryan could not even get a full sentence out. His face was pale, and he panicked. He had not expected this to happen at all. “That should not have happened… My teacher’s treatment has never failed before!” He was still very confused. To this day, he had never seen the treatment go wrong. This was the first time that the treatment… had failed. At this point, the members of the West family were crying. Connor was demanding an answer from him. Meanwhile, he was completely at a loss. He did not know how to respond. “Dr. Parker, you must give us an explanation! Save my father right now! If you don’t, I’ll bury you along with him!” Connor said threateningly. Ryan’s face twisted in anguish. He wanted to cry but could not. “He’s already dead. How am I supposed to save him?” he gasped. “What did you say?” The members of the West family glared angrily at him. They looked like they wanted to eat him alive. “Mr. Fox…” Irene suddenly had a realization. She quic
Dustin said it very casually. It was as if bringing a dead person back to life was nothing difficult. That was enough to give hope to the members of the West family. “If you have a way to do it, Mr. Fox, please save my father! The West family will forever be in your debt!” Connor said solemnly. Seeing that Clark was still standing in the corner in disdain, Connor angrily got up and dragged the other man to the floor. “If you can bring a dead man back to life, then that would be no less than a miracle! It’s impossible!” Ryan said darkly. Without explaining further, Dustin moved to the bed. Ryan huffed coldly and moved away without being asked. He did not believe that Dustin could perform miracles. He was waiting to insult Dustin after he failed. When he got close to the bedside, Dustin took out a portable electrotherapy device. He started putting the electrodes at key locations on Lucius’s body. “Electrotherapy!” Ryan’s eyes widened. Of course! But that was not
Dustin injected some sort of medicine into Lucius. In this way, he could get rid of the poison in Lucius’s body. The Life-giving Touch was a gentle cure that could get rid of poison or viruses and stabilize the heart of nearly dead patients. After a few minutes, Lucius suddenly let out a heavy breath. The ECG machine by the bed started showing a heartbeat again. “He’s alive! He was really brought back to life!” In an instant, everyone in the West family became excited and cheered. Ryan’s eyes nearly popped right out of their sockets as he stared in bewilderment. The Life-giving Touch was real! This punk had really used a mythical medical skill and limited equipment to bring a dead person back to life! As a renowned top grade physician, Ryan suddenly felt like his whole world had been turned upside down. “Amazing! This is a miracle!” The members of the West family could not stop singing Dustin’s praises. They were impressed by Dustin’s miraculous skill. Dusti
After thanking him again, the West family led Dustin to the living room for some tea. Dustin did not have time for all these niceties, so he looked straight at Irene. “I came here because of the Fox family’s martial arts manual. When are you going to hand it over to me?” he asked abruptly. When Dustin said that, every member of the West family was stunned. Connor’s face turned grim. “I knew you had some hidden agenda! So, you’re here for a martial arts manual!” Clark sniggered. “The West family doesn’t have any martial arts manuals of the Fox family. All we have is one of our own.” Dustin’s gaze turned icy. He looked at Clark levelly. “Irene, did you promise Mr. Fox something?” Connor asked. “Uncle Connor, I only promised the martial arts manual as a reward because I was desperate. I told Mr. Fox that we would give him the manual if he could save our family…” Irene said uneasily. “What’s the point of holding onto that manual if the family is destroyed?” Connor he
“You, the West family members, are really naive…” Samuel mocked before his face turned stony. “Doesn’t matter. I’ll kill this haughty kid right in front of you. Then, I’ll kill your whole family!” After that, Samuel made his move. The Five Venoms Sect was a dark cult. They had unusual skills and were very hard to fight. Samuel conjured some illusions and shocked the members of the West family. His evil aura terrified them. How was a young man like Dustin supposed to handle this, especially when he was only an eighth grade fighter? Irene looked extremely worried. She kept staring at Dustin. Dustin was unmoved. He was not affected by Samuel’s actions. To him, it did not matter what kind of illusions Samuel used. Dustin could see through all of them. Faster than anyone could see, Samuel approached Dustin. His vicious face was filled with murderous intent. His hand shot toward Dustin’s face. It was the same powerful move that had poisoned Lucius. Connor opened h
“Mr. Fox, thank you so much for defeating the West family’s enemy!” Connor, along with the rest of the family, bowed to Dustin. They were very respectful toward him. Even Clark, who had clashed with him before, felt scared and bowed. Who could have thought that Dustin was this powerful? If Dustin decided to settle scores with him, Clark would not be able to handle it. “Enough chit-chat! I want the Fox family’s martial arts manual.” Dustin was beginning to get impatient. He made it seem like he was willing to use force if the West family did not hand it over. Connor looked troubled. “Only my father knows where the manual is. Don’t worry, Mr. Fox. Once he wakes, I’ll ask him where it is,” Connor said with another bow. “You may have killed Samuel, but the danger has not passed. You may not know this, Mr. Fox, but one of the branches of the Five Venoms Sect is hiding in Lannopolis. Samuel was one of the sect’s important members… “The Five Venoms Sect will definitely aveng
Everyone instantly fell silent and stared. That necklace was not fake? Luna was stunned. Her face was a mask of disbelief. “As for the amethyst on the necklace, it’s a perfect specimen. I have never seen such a perfect stone in my life. It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that it’s priceless! This necklace is the real Luxuria!” Dennis’s voice reverberated through the room and practically echoed. Everyone in the room was delighted. Luna could not believe her ears. The necklace was real? That flea market piece of junk was real? How was that possible? It was impossible! She refused to believe it! Luxuria was a piece of jewelry that even the Queen of Irkland could not get even though she offered an exorbitant price for it. How could Dustin compare to her? How in the world had he gotten his hands on it? “This is really a priceless necklace?” The members of the main Langley family were stunned. The necklace was not something a member from a branch of the Langle
Everyone looked toward the source of the voice. The speaker was a chubby middle-aged man in a pristine suit. He carried himself with some charisma. “It’s him! It’s the King of Jewels, Dennis Copper!” someone cried out upon recognizing the man. It was clear that Dennis was someone who was very well-known. “The King of Jewels!” Luna was taken aback. Dennis was a big shot in the jewelry business in Hattan and indubitably its top jewel magnate. His jewelry business had reached every corner of the country, and he had stores everywhere. That was why he was called the King of Jewels. Dennis was a very important person in Hattan, with a high standing in their society. Dennis was the leading authority when it came to jewels. “I can tell with just a glance whether a jewel is fake. Since we have such a lively crowd here, how about I authenticate that for myself?” Dennis said with a smile. “Mr. Copper, this is a piece of junk that costs only ten dollars. How can we bother yo
“A cheap fake necklace from the internet?” The socialites frowned. “How can you say my necklace is fake? This is an engagement gift from Dustin!” Simone said angrily. “That explains it,” Luna said with a smug look. “With a fiance like that, how could he afford the real thing? You really think too highly of him.” Simone’s face darkened. She did not know much about the necklace. But since it was a gift from Dustin, she liked it. She thought it was very beautiful and decided to wear it today. “Do you even know what the real one looks like?” Luna looked at her with mockery. “The real version, ‘Luxuria,’ was just released by the world’s top jewelry brand. The chain alone is made of 108 top-quality diamonds. Each diamond is worth millions!” Luna spoke proudly. She was pleased with her knowledge on the necklace. “The pendant is a purple gemstone that was mined from beneath an ancient iceberg in the far north, where it has been for millions of years. Its size and purity are rare,
They arrived at Glory Hotel for the press conference. The launch of the longevity pill and the beauty pill was a big deal, and it shook up the entire pharmaceutical market. With Skyler in charge, these pills had become famous across the country and even internationally. Many people were excited and eagerly waiting for them to be released. Because of this, many people wanted to get the rights to sell the pills. Simone had expected the event to be busy but was still surprised when she saw the crowd. Every person there was a well-known figure in the industry representing a powerful pharmaceutical company. At first, she thought only companies from Hattan would be competing, but she was wrong. Here, apart from a few top companies, almost no other pharmaceutical companies from Hattan were considered important. Pharmaceutical companies from all over the country had sent representatives to the event. “Wow…” The main Langley family was surprised when they entered the venue
“The car is worth nearly 10 million dollars. You must have paid a lot for that thing, right? I wonder if you’ve made enough money in the past few days to cover the cost,” Luna said with a smug grin. “Don’t get too confident. You think stealing our formula will destroy us? Keep dreaming. Once we get the distribution rights for the longevity pill and the beauty pill, Dusmone Pharmaceuticals will be nothing compared to us. Even the biggest pharmaceutical companies in the country will have to step aside! “You think you can still compete with us then?” “You haven’t gotten the distribution rights yet,” David shot back. These people were celebrating way too early. “Ha! Do you think you can even imagine the kind of connections we have?” The Langley family smirked and were even more arrogant. Thud! Thud! Thud! Suddenly, a large group of law enforcement officers in uniform stormed into the underground parking lot and headed straight for them. “What’s going on? Are they here to ar
At 6 p.m., the main Langley family gathered at Conan’s request and headed to Glory Hotel for Foxtin’s press conference. Archer, who had not shown up in a while, made an appearance with his noticeable blonde hair. “How could I miss a moment like this?” he said with a grin. Not long ago, Dustin had broken his hand, and it was still in a cast. It was not fully healed. Still, this was a great chance to be seen, and he did not want to miss it. The main reason was that he wanted to show off his luxurious Rolls-Royce Phantom. His father, Orion, took the luxury car from Dustin, and he was really happy about it. His old Porsche was not even worth a million, so the two cars were on completely different levels. “Archer, your hand isn’t healed yet. Let me drive,” someone said. The Rolls-Royce had everyone in the family jealous. It was worth tens of millions, after all. “No need. I can drive it with one hand. I’ll just go slower if I have to,” Archer firmly said. “Archer, I’ll
Conan’s face was grim. His expression was so dark it seemed like a storm was brewing. They could lower their prices, but Dusmone Pharmaceuticals could do that as well. The real problem was that their drugs were not as effective as Dusmone Pharmaceuticals. They were bound to lose this price war. “When will the new drugs be ready?” Conan demanded. “The R&D department says, even in the best case, it’ll take at least a year for the new drugs to be ready,” someone said softly. “A year?!” Conan snarled. Everyone fell silent. Could Sunrise Pharmaceuticals last that long? With Dusmone Pharmaceuticals’s targeted attacks, it would only take a month for their company to tank, let alone a year. “Maybe we should talk to David?” someone said. “Give in to them? No way!” others immediately retorted. The main family had always looked down on the branch family and could not bring themselves to lower their pride. “Have you heard the big news in Hattan?” Luna suddenly asked. Ever
“What did you say?!” In the Langley family villa’s living room, Conan slammed his hand on the table. He was shocked and angry. “This can’t be possible! How could they do this?” The other Langley family members were also shocked and could not believe it. They were reacting like this because one of their family members had just brought in the latest news. Dusmone Pharmaceuticals had just been set up, and they had been keeping a close eye on them. The person had brought back news about Dusmone Pharmaceuticals, and it shocked everyone. “They’re selling all the same drugs as Sunrise Pharmaceuticals, but theirs are much more effective?! That can’t be true!” The Langley family members could not accept it. “It’s true! Their prices are much lower than ours,” the person said seriously. Hearing this, everyone was worried. Not only were their drugs more effective, but they were also cheaper! It was a huge problem. How could Sunrise Pharmaceuticals compete with them? It was
Thinking about Simone’s request, Daniel sneered. “As long as the Wilder family is in Hattan, you’ll never succeed in the pharmaceutical field!” … Sunrise Pharmaceuticals was the Langley family’s pharmaceutical company in Hattan. It was well-known in Hattan’s pharmaceutical industry. Normally, Luna’s family ran the company. Darren was the general manager, and Luna was the department manager. “Ms. Langley, bad news! You need to see this!” a subordinate suddenly said. Confused, Luna stepped outside and saw a new company across the street having its grand opening. “Dusmone Pharmaceuticals…” She stared at the name and was speechless. She also saw Simone and Dustin cutting the ribbon on stage. “Opening a hospital wasn’t enough, and now, they’re starting a pharmaceutical company right across from us? This is a direct challenge!” Luna had a hard time breathing because of the anger she felt. Dustin had once said he would beat them in their strongest field. At first, the ma
