Chapter 2

Author: Shrimp in Trouble Waters
Quinn stared straight at Chase. There was an arrogant look on her face.

Her secretary, Elaine Parker, looked at Chase in disdain. How could a penniless man like him be good enough for their CEO?

“Sure.”

Chase replied nonchalantly, “Although, that won’t be up to you to decide. This marriage was decided by your grandfather. You can wait until I’ve cured your grandfather so he can dissolve this marriage personally. If he's willing to do so, I will honor his decision.”

Quinn felt even more disdain for him when she saw him refusing to give up. “I’ll be in charge of my own marriage. Also, I’ll figure out my grandfather’s situation. There is no need for you to worry about it.”

She quickly scribbled on a check. “Here's a check for five million. If you’re willing to dissolve the marriage between us, this money is yours.

“Five million is nothing to me, but for those in the lower tier of society like you, it’s enough for you to survive your entire life. I believe you won’t reject my offer.”

A sarcastic smile appeared on Quinn’s face. She looked like she was donating money to a beggar.

Chase replied nonchalantly, “You can keep the check. I may be poor, but I never accept money I don’t deserve.

“I’ll say this again. I’m fine with dissolving the agreement, but Charles Norris has to be the one to do it.”

After that, Chase pushed the door open and left. He was decisive about it and walked off without looking back.

“Miss Norris, that man has no idea what he’s talking about. Why were you so polite to him?” Elaine asked angrily.

“He’s just acting out because of his pathetic pride.”

Quinn bit her lip and said furiously, “It'll be difficult for him to survive in South River City without money. I bet he’ll be back within three days.”

“Let’s stop talking about him.”

She shook her head and said, “By the way, Elaine, help me make an appointment with Sam Collins.

"I heard that he was suffering from the final stage of cirrhosis five years ago and the hospital informed him that he was as good as dead. But he was cured by a miracle doctor called the Medical Saint of Hell’s Gate.

“If we can manage to get this doctor, there'll be hope for Grandpa. Let’s see what Chase Collins has to say when Grandpa personally dissolves the marriage agreement between us.”

Her eyes were blazing fire when she said this.

Chase was headed toward a taxi by the roadside. He looked around the familiar street. There was determination burning in his eyes. “I’m finally back, my sisters. Your Rocky has returned to avenge you!”

There was a cold expression on his face, and he looked like another person.

Chase had grown up at an orphanage before he was 11. There were seven girls who had grown up there with him. The youngest of them was only a month older than he was. The oldest of the girls was five years older than Chase.

All seven of them treated him well, and they were very protective of him. He was the first person on their minds whenever they had something nice they wanted to share. They even promised to marry him together after they grew up.

Unfortunately, a fire broke out at the orphanage when Chase was 11. Everything was burned down, and none of them were able to escape it because they had chosen to save Chase.

That was how Chase managed to get out alive while the rest of them died in the fire.

After that, Chase was saved by an old priest who taught Chase everything he knew. Before he died, Chase inherited the moniker of the Medical Saint of Hell’s Gate from him and was given the task of protecting the children of the old priest’s past lover.

Chase had come down the mountains to fulfill the old man’s dying wish and take revenge.

He wanted the murderer of his sisters to all go to hell!

    Half an hour later, Chase found the Turners’ Residence according to the address given to him by the old man.Henry Turner, who was close to 50, smiled as he finished reading the letter given to him inside the living room. “It’s true. It’s the writing of that esteemed man.”“Now do you believe who I am, Uncle Henry?”Chase asked, “The old man told me that you asked for his help right before he died. He requested that I protect your family. Can you tell me what happened?”Henry sighed. “It’s like this, Chase. A business competitor wrote me a letter anonymously to tell me that he would kidnap my daughter.“I’ve hired five bodyguards for her, but she has been spoiled by me since young. All five of them have been chased off by her.“After giving this thorough consideration, I decided to ask for your master’s help.”Henry smiled at Chase. “Your master has given me the solution in the letter you brought me. You need to be my daughter’s fiancé. That will give you a good reason to protec

    “If that’s what you think, you can go ahead and buy what you need on your own.” Riley left after saying this coldly to Chase.Chase shrugged and walked away to hail a taxi by the road. “Take me to Emgrand Group.”Riley entered a Starbucks and sat down. The more she thought about it, the angrier she was. She took out her phone and sent a message to her chat group: [This sucks! This really sucks!]There were only five people in the chat group, and they were all colleagues who got along with Riley.It was not long before a woman named Anna Clayton replied to her message: [What’s wrong, Riley? Who upset you this time?][My dad found some random country bumpkin and made him my fiancé.] Riley finally found someone she could vent to.[What?][Woah! Are you for real?]The group chat immediately became active.[Why would I lie to you?]Riley typed angrily: [The worst thing about this is that my dad is making me get him a job at our company. My dad claims that it would be easier for hi

    “Sir, the Quaids had their eyes on the land of Green Hills Orphanage 12 years ago. They tried everything they could to convince the orphanage director, Gideon Hills, to give up the orphanage, but he wouldn’t budge. "In the end, they burned down Green Hills and grabbed the opportunity to take the land…“The Quaids later became one of the five elite families of South River City because of that land!“I’ve received information that the Quaids will be attending an auction three days later to bid on an emerald. Rumor has it that the emerald is a remnant from Green Hills Orphanage that is supposed to be magical.”Chase looked like he was ready to murder them. Sam felt as though an invisible pair of hands was strangling him, and it sent chills down his spine.“The Quaids have to pay for this!” Chase smiled, but there was a chilling look in his eyes.They had murdered 108 people in that fire for a piece of land.He immediately instructed, “Make preparations. I'll attend that auction in

    Quinn’s pretty face lit up. “Mr. Collins, I’d like to find out if the miracle doctor is as good as you say. Is he able to treat ALS?”She had asked this question because her grandfather, Charles, was suffering from ALS. It was known as one of the top five terminal illnesses in the world. ALS patients normally would only have three to five years to live.The symptoms included muscle atrophy, stiffness of limbs, and paralysis. It even affected the respiratory muscles, which would cause the patient to die of respiratory failure.Charles' condition was at the late stage, and he could die at any moment.“ALS?”Sam was taken aback. He replied seriously, “If it was some other doctor, there might not be hope, but it shouldn’t be a problem if it's the miracle doctor who treated me five years ago.”Quinn felt as though something had gone off in her mind, and her breathing got a little more ragged.If it were someone else, she would not have believed it. She might even think she was being

    “Huh?”Quinn and Elaine were taken aback at first, but they later laughed out loud in unison.“I didn’t hear that wrong, did I, Collins? You’re saying that you live here?”Elaine laughed in great exaggeration. “Do you know how much a villa is worth here? It can easily go up to 30 or 40 million. A bumpkin like you can work hard your entire life and you won’t even be able to afford a bathroom here.”“Oh, I can’t take it anymore. You’re making me laugh too hard.”Her hands were clasping on her tummy, and she could not stop laughing.Quinn had an angry smile on her face. “Tell me, which is your house?”“It’s at the peak. I think it’s called Imperial Dragon Bay Villa No. 1 or something,” Chase replied casually.Quinn laughed sardonically.If he had mentioned another random villa, she might have believed him.However, Imperial Dragon Bay Villa No.1 was the address of the Medical Saint of Hell’s Gate. Why would this country bumpkin be staying there?She looked at Chase sympathetica

    Everyone looked toward the voice’s direction and saw Chase standing at the door.“Who are you, young man?” Dr. Strickland’s face fell as he asked unhappily.“You don’t need to know who I am."Chase took a step forward and sniggered. “The old man in bed has two years more to live, but you’re claiming his time is up. That’s disregard for human life.”A stranger’s death had nothing to do with Chase, but this person had belittled the old man, and Chase had to do something about it.It was because Chase’s master had gone by the moniker of ‘The Medical Saint of Hell’s Gate’ when he was traveling the world, and Chase had inherited this title. He had the responsibility of defending the honor of this title.Dr. Strickland was enraged to hear Chase claim that he was disregarding human life. “What did you just say, you rascal?”Everyone turned to look at Chase coldly.The doctor’s name was Elijah Strickland, and he came from a family that had been in the medical industry for hundreds of y

    A silver light flashed in his hand, and seven silver needles appeared.“Go!”Chase waved his arm, and the seven silver needles pierced into seven acupoints on the old man.Dr. Strickland was startled by this and exclaimed, “Did… Did you just move the needles through the void?!”After the seven needles pierced into the old man’s acupoints, a white light suddenly flashed from them, and the needles formed into the alignment of the Big Dipper. It was dazzling, looking like the starry sky.“Inscription for 10,000 years on your back, inscription for the seven stars on your chest. The Grim Reaper welcomes you now, but I can keep you here with us.“Awaken! If not now, when?!”Chase chanted those words. It sounded like they were the key to controlling life and death.The moment he finished the words, the old man on the bed who was supposed to be unconscious suddenly threw up blood that was black. After that, he began coughing violently.Everyone was silent.They were thunderstruck and

    That man had been telling the truth since the beginning. He really could save her grandfather.Unfortunately, she had treated him as a con man.An employee of the Cooper Corporation took a deep breath and said determinedly, “From now onward, every one of us will search for the whereabouts of this miracle doctor even if we have to overturn the entire South River City. Don’t come back without finding him!”The next morning, Henry called Chase again. “Where are you, Chase? Riley is taking you to her company for an interview. Give me your address and I’ll get her to pick you up.”“Alright, Uncle Henry.” Chase sent him the address for Imperial Dragon Bay Villa No.1.Downstairs at the Turner household, a young woman in a black, professional suit was standing next to a white Benz C260. She looked at the time and said impatiently, “Riley, that country bumpkin fiancé of yours isn’t respecting our time. We’ve been waiting for him for quite a while.”“Stop it, Anna.

    Cyril approached Garth, who was lying on a stretcher on the floor. The crowd opened up a path for him. When he spoke, there was some sort of authority in his tone.Chase smiled and shook his head when he saw this. It looked like Cyril was the key to getting past this level. If things went according to plan, Cyril would soon cross paths with a notorious party. That would be the boss they had to defeat to get past the third level.Cyril opened his yellow bag while the crowd watched curiously. He took out a set of silver needles."That's quite a decent quality!" Willow could not help exclaiming.Medical and poison skills were similar. As a poison expert, Willow had pretty good medical skills. She could tell if a set of silver needles was good quality. Moreover, Cyril's technique was excellent. Willow could not help clapping.The passengers around her jumped at the noise."Why are you clapping when he hasn't even saved the patient?"A sleazy-looking man complained. His breath smelle

    "Ms. Worthington, your grandfather has been suffering from this illness for years…"Lourde was not comforted at all by her comfort. He took off his glasses and wiped away his sweat. He began to tremble as he spoke."Don't worry. Everything will be fine. I hired Dr. Clef specially to treat my grandfather. Nothing will happen."The tall Tia Worthington was confident with the doctor's medical skills.Chase started to wonder about this. "If she has gotten a doctor to help her grandfather, why would the staff broadcast for help?"Willow and Walter realized the same thing when they heard Tia. However, they held back their thoughts when Chase said nothing.A young man of about 20 suddenly appeared. He was dressed simply and had a yellow bag on his back."Where's the patient? Let me have a look!" he yelled out.If he had taken time to dress up, he would have looked as handsome as Chase. As for his current situation, anyone who saw him thought that he was ordinary."Where did this bump

    "Lastly, if I'm right about this, Carla should be here, but she's stuck on a random level. We'll definitely see her then.""Huh? Really?"Barnabas found this incredulous at first but later thought it made sense. Most importantly, he would not be able to convince the Supreme Elder otherwise even if he did not believe it. All Barnabas could do was agree.Sykes had an even more blunt personality. He would follow whatever the Supreme Elder said.The only thing Sykes cared about was finding a breakthrough to peak martial god.That was when he spoke up, "Should we go in now, Elder Ricky?""Go ahead."Ricky gave an exasperated reply and stepped into the teleportation door.Barnabas and Sykes looked at each other and followed suit.…On the third level of the Dark and Light Mineral Ore, Chase and the others appeared in a plane cabin. He was relieved at first. Chase channeled his vital energy and realized there was also a seal here, but it was a higher quality seal than before. It was

    Both sects had always been at loggerheads over resources and power in the past. It was difficult to sort out the feud they had.However, things changed in this generation when Carla led her sect to the top to be on the same level as the Nefarious Deity Sect. She did it all with her own capabilities.The other sects in the nether realm were also hungering for an opportunity to move up their rankings, so both sects came to a temporary compromise.It was because of Carla's feelings for Fallon that the relationship of both sects improved slightly.Dominic and Ricky were elders from the older generation who had handed over their power to the next generation, which was why their fight was not as intense as before. However, they would still taunt and insult each other in every other form possible.When Dominic heard this rumor, he assumed that Fallon had Carla wrapped around his finger.In other words, the Nefarious Deity Sect would soon own the Evil Shadow Sect. He was particularly del

    However, the Dark and Light Emeralds' quality was clearly better on the second level than on the first level.If the rumor about this place having nine levels were true, how much more powerful would the Dark and Light Emeralds on the ninth level be?As for Willow and her little gigolo, were they in a hurry to get to the next level because they knew a secret about the ninth level?Ricky's question made him think about this thoroughly.He was impressed.No wonder Ricky was a Supreme Elder. He had such acute observation."Do you mean to say that Willow is in a hurry to get to the ninth level?" he asked the question carefully."Haven't any of you explored the Dark and Light Mineral Ore?" Ricky frowned when he asked this."It's because the Dark and Light Emeralds we found here are only suitable for low-level cultivators, which is why…" Barnabas was embarrassed when he answered."All of you ignored the facts in front of you—the Dark and Light Emeralds, the teleportation doors, and t

  • My Seven Gorgeous Women   Chapter 1865

    Ricky had another thought. It seemed that Willow and the others were in a hurry to get through the teleportation doors. The locations they were sent to were different as well. There was no guarantee that they would arrive at the same place as Willow and the others. Besides that, every level seemed to become increasingly difficult.On the other hand, they had no idea how many levels there were after this. They did not know how many teleportation doors they had to go through.Ricky was hesitant as he looked at the teleportation door that was glowing mysteriously."Why aren't you going inside?" Dominic hurried his old nemesis when Ricky refused to budge."What do Willow and the others want by coming to this place?"Ricky was thoughtful and looked at Dominic to ask the question."What? How would I know? Let's just get this done with. Aren't we here to take the Dark and Light Emerald Lotus? Even if we can't get it, it's also worth it to take his skills and techniques. I'm estimating

    "Kill them? No, no, no. I'd never dare do such a thing." The dark sorcerer quickly denied it. He thought that Barnabas and the others were Chase's family and friends when he saw the shocked looks on their faces.No one knew what might happen to him if they mistook him for their murderer."They aren't dead?"Ricky used his consciousness to sense the area. He used his vital energy to pick up the bones and rotting flesh from the ground for closer inspection.The remains looked like they had been there for years. There were also no signs of cultivation on them. Most of the bones and rotting flesh were from the corpses of common men.Dominic inspected them as well and came up with the same conclusion."Tsk… See how much you scared him, Ricky. You shouldn't be so sharp with your questions. Come here, my friend. Tell me where they went."Dominic said to Ricky sarcastically before putting on a friendly face to ask the dark sorcerer.The dark sorcerer looked at the big, plump man and fo

    The dark sorcerer began to squirm like a long snake. He had thought the blade would be powerless against him. The dark sorcerer would counter-attack after that and summon the legendary Flame of Destruction to burn those three strange infiltrators to death.Unfortunately, things did not work out the way he planned.Greedy Wolf slashed him at the waist. The dark sorcerer was like a deflated balloon as his black robe fell to the ground. The black silk covering him fell as well, and black smoke wafted from it. His eyes were the only two bright spots left."How is this possible?"The black smoke's form was like the undead they had met before except it was not translucent and had a dark color. It was almost solid.The dark sorcerer's voice was not a sound that was heard in the air. Instead, it reverberated in the minds of Chase and the others.What kind of existence was he?Despite their astonishment, they were not too surprised. Besides the rotting zombie, the undead, the old hag, an

    Willow could not let that happen. She forced herself to calm down while pushing it out of her sea of consciousness with great force. She became dizzy and felt like throwing up. It was a similar feeling to getting car sick.She bled from the nose. Her attempt at attacking the tower had caused some damage to her mind and soul."I can't do it. This tower can defend itself against consciousness trying to inspect it," Willow said breathlessly. "Give it up. I'm invincible here!" The dark shadow spoke up once more. Unlike before, his voice seemed to connect directly to everyone's minds.Chase felt a headache. This was only the second level and things had become complicated.He was suddenly impressed by the two people who got to level seven."Stop playing tricks, Dark Sorcerer, or I'll blow up your sorcerer's tower," Chase said grimly. He used the Passive Concentration Technique and the Light Deity Technique to broadcast his words.This dark sorcerer was inclined to use unorthodox te
