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!

  • My Seven Gorgeous Women   Chapter 2842

    Everyone knew that Immortal Swordsmen had the weakest defense.Dave, the number one in swordsmanship among martial god kings, struck with his full power, yet he failed to break through the defense of Dorian, who was also an Immortal Swordsman!Dave was momentarily dazed, but Dorian's sword would not give him this opportunity.In battles between Immortal Swordsmen, life and death were decided in an instant.In that brief moment of distraction, everyone saw a column of blood shoot skyward as Dave's head flew into the air."In the third round, Dorian wins and becomes the new arena master!"After a long while, the referee announced the result while looking at Dorian with amazement. Jaxon of the Great Emerald Empire and his four princes, especially Jasper, were beyond shocked to see Dave beheaded by Dorian in just three moves.In their hearts, Dave was the undisputed number one swordsman throughout Earth Emperor Heaven.Dorian was merely an oddity, an Immortal Swordsman from the Pat

  • My Seven Gorgeous Women   Chapter 2841

    Dave realized this would be a tough fight. His opponent possessed sword intent similar to his own but more refined, plus cultivation one stage higher.His only advantage was more extensive experience.He did not hesitate and struck again. One of the true essences of swordsmanship was speed. Fast enough, and even the most sophisticated techniques and higher cultivation became meaningless.This was Dave's new insight after hitting a bottleneck with Green Snake Sword Intent. He launched his newly mastered Swift Sword Intent. His blade light cut through the air like lightning. By the time one saw the flash, it was already the afterimage.Dorian never anticipated Dave's sword would be this fast. Unable to dodge in time, he took several sword strikes directly.Fortunately, he wore Chase's defensive talismans. These sword strikes only tore his outer garments.This also reminded him that a slight advantage was only temporary, not true dominance. He could not get too carried away.Dori

    This felt oddly similar to Dave's own Green Snake Sword Intent.His Green Snake Sword Intent, which matched its name perfectly, embodied a viper concealed in grass. Hidden yet deadly, striking without warning.Dorian's current sword draw looked completely ordinary and unthreatening on the surface. Yet Dave felt the opponent's sword intent already pinned him down completely. One tiny slip and that blade would go straight for his throat.The refinement actually exceeded his own original Green Snake technique. That was not even the main problem, though.As a stage-five martial god king blade master, Dave initially felt absolutely no pressure facing Dorian, who supposedly never broke past martial god sovereign. That confidence was why he started trash-talking immediately.This single sword draw, though? It made him realize his opponent definitely was not stuck at the martial god sovereign realm anymore. The pressure rolling off him actually topped Dave's own.Dave, a stage-five mar

    Seeing Dave, Earth Emperor Heaven's former top fighter, take the stage, everyone from the Path Seeking Sect felt exceptionally thrilled.He was practically a legend to them, after all. However, he was still stuck at stage five of the martial god king realm, so he no longer looked all that formidable.The Path Seeking Sect's side alone boasted dozens of experts at stage five of the martial god king realm and higher.Among them was sword genius Dorian, who also held the dubious distinction of failing to break through to martial god king more times than any other Path Seeking Sect disciple.However, in these past months, he successfully advanced to martial god king and shot straight up to stage-six martial god king with the help of Chase's 14 Path insights. He was now exactly one level above Dave."I'll take this one!" Dorian volunteered enthusiastically.Otto considered briefly, then glanced at Chase, silently asking his thoughts.Chase knew Dorian through and through.He had als

    'What just happened?' Karl wondered.How did none of his protective talismans activate? How did Willow subdue him so easily?In the Great Emerald Empire's eyes, their strongest Talisman Master, Karl, was taken down by Willow, who was supposedly the weakest member under Chase!If word of this got out, it would be absolutely shocking."First match goes to the Path Seeking Sect. Willow wins!" The judge on stage announced the result.Everyone on the Three Army Coalition's side looked stunned.They all believed Karl had this match secured when they confirmed that the Path Seeking Sect was sending out Willow, the weakest cultivator under Chase.How could a female martial god sovereign possibly match Karl, a stage-two martial god king Talisman Master?Yet Karl's frozen, stiff body toppling over told them plainly that Willow won!Jaxon and his three princes immediately stood up seeing this. Zeno rushed up personally in a panic and carried Karl back down.After examination, Karl had s

    Next, both sides started deciding who would compete and in what sequence.The minimum requirement for entering the arena was obviously martial god king level.Between both forces, there were nearly a hundred martial god king fighters. If they started from martial god sovereign, this tournament would drag on forever.A short while later, the arena matches between both sides began.As hosts, the Path Seeking Sect transported several blocks of incredibly durable ancient granite and built an arena roughly half a mile in radius.Both sides then deployed their Water Mirror Techniques, projecting the arena action onto the sky for spectators.The Three Army Coalition initially talked about holding back strength, yet they still deployed one of their top ten Talisman Masters—a stage-two martial god king named Karl Stonewall, the Misfortune Priest.They remained worried about having gotten zero intel from the Path Seeking Sect these past two weeks and feared the opposition might spring som
