Chapter 2

Author: Lorelei Thunder
"She's late?"

Woody was a little surprised to see an empty road ahead of him. The scenario that he had expected didn't happen.

Pamela had promised that she would be there to welcome him and give him a warm embrace the moment he was released. But she wasn't there.

However, Woody didn't mind it. He'd rather she drive slowly and stay safe. So he stood there and waited in silence.

It wasn't until the sun had set and a light shower began drizzling down that a car slowly drove toward him from down the road.

When the car pulled up beside him, Woody quickly hurried over. However, the person who got out of the car wasn't his wife, Pamela. Instead, it was her best friend, Miriam Warren.

"Miriam, why are you here? Where's Pamela?" Woody was surprised to see her.

Miriam walked over indifferently with an umbrella in her hand. "Ms. York isn't here today. I'm her secretary. She wanted me to pass this to you."

She opened up a document file and showed it to Woody. He was greeted by a jarring header. It was a divorce agreement!

Caught off guard, Woody chuckled. "Quit fooling around. Come on, tell Pamela to come on out!"

A contemptuous look flashed across Miriam's face, and she said coldly, "No one's fooling around, Woody! Society isn't as you think it is anymore! You're no longer good enough to be with Ms. York!"

"What's that supposed to mean?" Woody looked straight into her eyes.

Miriam continued flatly, "You and Ms. York are now of entirely different social standing. She's now doing amazing in the business sector with a net worth of at least several billion dollars. They call her the prettiest CEO in Tiusto City!

"Your background will affect Ms. York's reputation and company, so if you know what's good for both of you, you should take the initiative to stay away from her. Do not be a hindrance to her!"

"And what background is that?" Woody asked.

"You're an ex-convict! Ms. York is an up-and-rising star in the business sector, and she's got all eyes on her! She rides sports cars and lives in lavish hotels, and she has connections with all the rich and famous in the elite circle!

"And look at you! Wake up! Do you think you're good enough for her?" Miriam huffed in disdain.

Woody tried his best to suppress his anger as he countered, "Are you not aware of the reason I ended up in prison?"

Miriam scoffed and answered meanly, "At the end of the day, all you're after is money, isn't it? How much do you think you're worth? Name your price. Ms. York has no lack of money now."

Woody's gaze became increasingly cold. "Get Pamela to talk to me. In person."

"There's no need to bother Ms. York over such a small matter. She's a busy person with important people to meet."

"So you consider divorce a small matter? So trivial that she doesn't even have time to meet me? How arrogant of her!"

Miriam was instantly angered. "Woody Henderson! You'd better know what's good for you!

"Many things have changed in the time that you were away! Things far beyond your understanding. So what if she meets you? Nobody can change Ms. York's decision!

"If you agree to the divorce, you will be getting a house, a car, and an additional three million dollars in cash! This is Ms. York's repayment for you. Even if you do not agree to it, nothing will change. The outcome will remain the same.

"To tell you the truth, the scion of Donnel Corporations is wooing Ms. York, and she's ready to accept him."

"Donnel Corporations? You mean Kurt Donnel?"

"That's right! It's him. I'm sure you know very well how the Donnel family always gets what they want. You know what's going to happen to you if you keep hanging around Ms. York," Miriam threatened.

Woody clenched his fists so tightly that his knuckles turned white.

Kurt Donnel was the scumbag who had barged into Pamela's dressing room back then. He was the reason why Woody ended up in prison for four whole years.

    The fact that Pamela was going to accept Kurt was such an irony. The next moment, a Mercedes-Benz pulled up beside them, and an attractive figure came out of the car. Her features were well-defined and alluring, and her branded professional attire showed off her shapely figure. The most eye-catching of all was her long, slender legs.The regal presence that she gave off was breathtaking. The four years that had passed left no trace of time on her face. Instead, it only added the matureness of a successful woman to her."Pam …"Woody broke out in a smile and approached her.Pamela reflexively backed up. Her gaze flickered. "Sorry for being late. I had some business to take care of. Ms. Warren, have things been taken care of?" She looked distant and unwelcoming.Miriam looked flustered as she hurriedly went over to Pamela with the umbrella. "I'm working on it … Right, Ms. York, don't you have a date with Mr. Donnel? Why are you here?""This won't take up too much time. I'll go for the

    They were finally divorced! But somehow, Pamela noticed that she wasn't as happy as she thought she'd be.Still, she maintained a strong attitude and said, "Only the weak regard their worthless pride and ego so highly. You will definitely regret rejecting all these."I'll save the things for you. Anytime you change your mind, you can contact Ms. Warren."Thoroughly disappointed in Pamela, Woody turned to leave.Pamela felt a sharp stab in her heart as she watched him leave. With complex emotions, she asked, "Miriam, is what I'm doing … wrong?""Of course not! Only by kicking away this stumbling block will you be able to attain your goal of becoming the most successful businesswoman. "Woody is destined to be a nobody who's never going to be good enough for you. He'll only hinder your success," Miriam affirmed with confidence.Pamela didn't answer her. Instead, she stood there staring off into space. She felt like she had just lost the most important thing in her life.Seeing her in suc

    Helen was about to cry her heart out. Teary-eyed, she said, "Ever since you saved him last time, my father changed his ways. He abandoned all those unrighteous dealings he had in the past and does only legitimate business now."He forks out ten million dollars every year for charitable causes, including building orphanages and schools in rural areas and helping the poor and those who cannot afford medical help. He even intends to increase the amount annually. "My father has truly turned over a new leaf! Please save him, Dr. Henderson! If you're willing to help him, the Cartwright family will give you a millennium-old Panax root!"Helen had spent a huge fortune seeking help for her father for the past few days but had ended up in a wild goose chase.Then, one day, she suddenly recalled how her father's condition had taken a turn for the worse three years ago. But the odd thing was that he went out one day and returned in perfect health.Mason had claimed that he had been in luck and th

    "What? A presidential suite that costs over ten thousand dollars a day? How dare that son of a bitch spend so lavishly? He doesn't see an issue with it because he's spending out of somebody else's pocket! "Seems like he's ripped off quite a fortune from your sister!" Trudy was furious."Exactly! I've never even stayed in a presidential suite before!" Brutus huffed.The two then got up and hurried over to the hotel in a rage.Back in the suite, Woody opened up his canvas bag. There were over a dozen top-tier black cards from various banks.When the rich and powerful came to him for medical help, they had to give him half of their assets as payment. Woody only kept a tenth of what he received for himself, and and he donated the rest to charity. Even so, he managed to save up a sizable amount for himself. All Pamela needed to do was say it, and he could give her an extravagant life fit for royalty. There was such an easy path laid out ahead of her, but she insisted on taking the hard w

    Considering that they had been family in the past, Woody held his anger at bay and forced himself not to retaliate. "Mom, must we make things so ugly between us?""Hah! Who's your mother? Take a good look at yourself. Do you think you're fit to call me Mom?"Brutus raised Woody's stack of black cards and mocked in disdain, "What a fucking joke! I've never even seen such cards! They must be fake! And this … What trash is this?"He picked up the deerskin needle bag and took a brief glance at it, thinking it was just worthless junk."Give it back!" Woody was infuriated.But not only did Brutus not give it back, he even threw it to the ground and stomped on it. "Trash! Just like you, you ex-convict!"Woody could no longer hold back his anger. He clenched his fists so tightly that his knuckles popped simultaneously."You asshole!" A slap landed on Brutus' face, sending him crashing to the ground with a loud smack. One of his cheeks instantly became red and swollen. "You ingrate!

    With a crack, both of Brutus' legs were broken at a grotesque angle. The bones pierced through his flesh and skin, and blood began flowing immediately."Ahh! My legs!" Brutus' agonizing shrieks reverberated in the suite.Trudy swiftly went to check on him, shouting, "You madwoman! How dare you do this to my son?"She pulled out her phone as she shouted, about to get some backup. But one of the bodyguards slapped it out of her hands and sent it crashing to the ground in pieces."Mind you, Mr. Henderson is not to be insulted. If you want to seek revenge, I'll be waiting. My name is Helen Cartwright!"Helen's words were cold and hard as she said, "Throw them both out! No one is to kick up a fuss in this room!""Woody Henderson, you bastard! How dare you just watch my son's legs be broken without doing anything? You're both done for, you wretched couple! Our family will not let you off! Just you wait!"The bodyguards ignored their screams and forcibly escorted them out.The room qu

    "That's nonsense! I've never heard of a hospital's wards being closed off! Come up with a better lie next time! How old do you think I am? Three?"At that moment, Dickson York came rushing over with several of his men. When he saw his son lying on a stretcher and his wife all bruised up, he exclaimed in astonishment, "How come the two of you are hurt so badly?""It's all thanks to that son of a bitch, Woody Henderson! He instructed a bitch to beat us up! Do you even know how brutal they were? It hurts to high hell!" Trudy began complaining amidst sobs.Trying to suppress his rage, Dickson said, "Don't worry. I won't let that bastard off easily. But right now, you both need to get treated first. Why haven't you been admitted yet?"Trudy immediately began explaining exaggeratedly and sarcastically. The doctor-in-charge was so frustrated by what he heard that he rolled his eyes."I'll contact the director of the hospital. With our family status, I refuse to believe we can't even get somet

    "I don't even know him! How could I possibly have contacted him?"Helen's eyes widened as she quickly explained to Woody, "Mr. Henderson, please trust me. This has got nothing to do with me!"Asking for help from two different people for the same matter wasn't too nice of a thing to do. Since she'd already asked for Woody's help, naturally, Helen wouldn't have asked another person to get involved. That would show that she didn't trust Woody. Helen would never do something so childish."Huh? Then, who is he?" Clement was dumbfounded. "He followed us in when we carried Mason into the ward earlier. I had assumed that you had sent him here, Ms. Cartwright."Right then, a group of doctors in white coats came in through the doors. At the forefront was the director of the hospital, Dwayne Maxwell. Behind him followed a group of specialists."Ms. Cartwright, please allow me to make some introductions. This is my senior, Dr. Kevin Barker, who's one of the most knowledgeable people in the whole

    In the darkness, countless shadows darted back and forth.When they clearly saw that the gateway, which symbolized the Martial Arts Union, had been destroyed and was now nothing more than a pile of rubble, they were immediately filled with rage."Who dared to be so bold and fearless!""How dare you tear down the Martial Arts Union's gate? You're asking for trouble.""Whoever it is, they're definitely not a good person. Let's deal with them thoroughly first and ask questions later!"A crowd filled with anger saw what appeared to be a figure standing in front of the ruins."Hey kid, did you see who did it?"A sharp-eyed person noticed that the figure was a young man and immediately started questioning him."I'm warning you, this situation is serious. You need to tell everything you've seen, or else you'll face the consequences."Woody stood calmly and said, "I saw it.""Come on, who is it?" a group of people demanded in unison.Woody said calmly, "That's me!""What?!"The gr

    To be honest, Woody was quite intrigued.Every time he got into a scuffle with the underlings, he couldn't help but deeply miss Alexia.The esteemed Princess of the Epochal Realm was clearly being used by him as a henchman.The key point is that Alexia wasn't upset at all; instead, she was quite happy to help."No way."Reason overcame impulse, and Woody frowned as he said, "You have to stay at home. Only then can I be at ease."Alexia's expression fell. "Alright then!"Woody laughed and said, "You're being so obedient, I must reward you for that.""What kind of reward?" Her ears perked up with excitement, and her eyes were sparkling.Woody pulled a serpent's core of his pocket and said, "I promised you a gift earlier, and now I'm making good on that promise."Alexia's eyes lit up with excitement again.

    Edwin was, of course, unconvinced! As the teacher, he had failed, but the student had succeeded on the first try. If it wasn't sheer luck, then what was it? Woody didn't respond and picked up a second heavenly crystal. Moments later, he succeeded again! Edwin's eyes widened in amazement, as though he witnessed something truly extraordinary. Meanwhile, the admiration on Alexia's face skyrocketed. "Try it again!" Edwin was still unwilling to accept it. This time, Woody didn't humor him and directly put away the remaining heavenly crystals. "What's the meaning of this?" Edwin widened his eyes. Woody stood up to leave and without looking back, he said, "Thanks!""Wait, are you sure you've fully mastered it?"Edwin hurried after him and said, "What if something goes wrong? I can help you figure it out!""No need. If my master believes he's fine, then he's definitely going to be fine," Alexia said, blocking the old man and speaking with solemn assurance.

    Edwin stiffened his neck, trying to maintain a normal expression to cover up his embarrassment as his earlier demonstration had ended in failure. Although he knew the method, his lack of practice over the years had led to a mistake, which was understandable.""Ha..." Alexia let out a big yawn, her eyelids feeling as though they were weighed down by a thousand pounds; she was getting sleepy!Edwin's lengthy lecture had successfully bored her into a drowsy state. As for the later parts of the lesson, it didn't register in her mind at all; everything he said went in one ear and out the other, leaving no trace behind. "Carry on…"Alexia stretched lazily signaling for the two of them to continue without being affected by her. This left Edwin feeling utterly defeated! He felt as though he had been slapped in the face! Putting a student to sleep was already embarrassing enough, but to make matters worse, his demonstration had also failed. "It's fine, let me try."
