"Your entire family are ungrateful bloodsuckers. You're worse than beasts!"Pamela was taken aback. "What do you mean they cheated your family's money? What nonsense are you spouting?""Don't tell me that you don't know about this. But that's possible as well. After all, it's not entirely impossible for your parents to hide something so shameful from you," Sasha sneered.Pamela turned to her parents. "What happened?""This is no time to be incited by outsiders. Let's bring Brutus to the hospital, quick!" Dickson exclaimed, feigning anger.Shamelessly, Jeremiah chimed in, "Yes, Brutus' Injury is more important now. Let's leave this place first."Jeremiah then picked up the unconscious Peter while the advisor and the others left the place with their tails between their legs. Pamela nodded at him and threw a look of hatred at Woody before leaving.Outside the club, the Yorks entered Jeremiah's car. Then, Jeremiah glowered at the entrance of the bar and growled, "Don't worry, it w
"That's enough. Get up now," Woody said.Helen took a step forward and helped Clement up together with Melissa. She said, "Mr. Henderson has told you to get up. Hurry and get people to clear up the place. We're here for fun."Clement nodded. "You got it." After he gave out the instructions, his men started frantically cleaning up the place. It didn't take long until the place was clean again. Soon, new tables and chairs were placed, and fresh drinks were served.The club quickly returned to its original atmosphere too.Initially, many timid guests had wanted to leave, but because Clement had announced that all expenses would be waived for tonight, they immediately changed their minds and stayed on.…Meanwhile, Brutus was at the hospital. "Brutus York, why are you here again?"The doctor looked at his medical records and exclaimed with wide eyes, "Last time, you broke your legs, and this time, it's your arms. What's happening? Do you like coming to the hospital this much?"
With Jeremiah's support, Pamela felt more confident and nodded in agreement. "Yes, you're right!"Since Jeremiah had turned the tables in her favor during the trial, then surely he was an important enough person who could influence Miranda.If Pamela mentioned Jeremiah's name, then Miranda would do definitely do her this favor."It's still not too late yet. Hurry and go now," Trudy urged. Initially, Pamela had wanted to suggest going the next morning. But when she saw how pathetic her brother seemed, she finally nodded and said, "Okay, I'll head over to Ms. Miranda's hotel then."Half an hour later, Pamela knocked on the door of a hotel room in Hillside Hotel. After she was allowed in, she found Miranda all washed up and dressed in her nightgown."I'm sorry, Ms. Miranda," Pamela apologetically started, "I shouldn't have come to disturb you so late at night.""It's alright."Pamela was relieved at Miranda's magnanimous attitude. But unbeknownst to her, if she wasn't Woody's ex-
Pamela widened her eyes in shock. "What?"Thousands of possibilities on who the owner of the cream was had gone through Pamela's mind. At one point, she'd even accepted her parents' ridiculous guess that Samuel was the owner and that he had given it to her because he was interested in her. But the one person that she didn't connect to the cream was Woody. How was this possible?Pamela couldn't bring herself to believe it. "Please don't joke with me, Ms. Miranda."With a serious face, Miranda answered, "Do I sound like I'm kidding?""But… H-How could it be him? That's utterly impossible!" Pamela loudly refuted.Miranda sniggered. "If it wasn't for Woody, do you think that I would've let your company off so easily? Why would I withdraw my lawsuit when I had absolute confidence of winning?"Once again, Pamela's eyes grew to the size of golf balls. Wasn't Jeremiah the one who'd gotten someone to put in a good word for her? How did it turn out to be Woody?"Since we're already
Pamela's heart sank. This situation seemed familiar to her.Previously, Kurt had gained her trust the same way by repeatedly lying to her and shamelessly taking credit for things that Woody had done.This was the same tactic too! Could Jeremiah be a jerk as well?Pamela refused to believe this. After all, Jeremiah had caught Kurt and recovered the Yorks' money. Just this point alone set him miles apart from Kurt.Pamela's heart beat wildly, and she had on a complicated expression. Upon seeing this, Miranda's assistant said, "Ms. York, it's getting late. It's time for Ms. Miranda to rest. Please leave.""Okay. I'm sorry for holding you up for so long Ms. Miranda. I'll take my leave now." Pamela then stood up and dejectedly left the hotel room. Pamela was like a soulless corpse as she walked in her daze. When she finally got into her car, she didn't even remember how she got there. Just to be safe, she decided to call Samuel. "Mr. Hills, I must be bothering you by call
"You don't have to do that." Jeremiah shot down her idea right away. "I've done him a huge favor before, and he's merely returning me the favor."Compared to what I've done for him, he's the one who gained a huge benefit. So, you don't have to thank him, much less buy him a meal. He should be the one treating me!"Pamela's eyebrows furrowed tightly. But still, she calmly said, "Since that's the case, okay then."Now, it was proven that Jeremiah and Kurt were the same. But the reason why Pamela didn't expose Jeremiah was because she didn't want to make it awkward for him. Moreover, she had other uses for him too. So, having a complete fallout with him wasn't the smartest thing to do."That's right, Pam. Kurt kept insisting to meet you." Ever-skilled in the art of manipulation, Jeremiah mentioned Kurt to remind Pamela of how he'd caught him. Jeremiah continued, "I think that you don't have to waste your time on scum like him. There's nothing to say to him. But he was very persi
Woody could only helplessly chuckle at the situation. He had actually considered administering acupuncture on each of them to instantly sober them up. However, that would defeat the purpose of drinking to relax. So, Woody decided to give up on the idea and not rain on their parade.They were constantly under a lot of pressure. So, it was important to have fun since they rarely hang out together too.After all, with Woody—the miraculous doctor—around, they wouldn't get into trouble regardless of how much they drank. As for whether or not they would regret it once they start feeling sick after drinking was a question to consider later.Soon, it was past midnight. As their colleagues started to leave one after another, Clement specially assigned his men to drop them home.Helen then declared that she had to hold out until the end because she was the boss, and her two best friends of the night decided to stay by her side. In the end, all three of them passed out in a drunken
The next morning, the curtains automatically drew back, and a ray of light shone through the windows and onto the huge bed.Calla opened her sleepy eyes and was immediately shocked by the scene before her. Where was this place?Hurriedly, she pulled her sheets away. At the sight of the complete pajamas she was wearing, she breathed a sigh of relief. But a question surfaced in her mind—where was this place?Calla scrambled off the bed and rubbed her hungover head before heading for the door.But right when she opened the door, she saw a familiar face. "Is this your place, Sasha?"Sasha had dark circles under her eyes, and her hair in a mess. With a confused look, she answered, "Yes. But what are you doing here, Calla?"Calla was puzzled too. "I also don't know!"Just then, the door to the master bedroom next to them swung open. Dressed in silk pajamas, Helen stood and stretched her hands. Her perfect figure was on full display, and it filled the other two girls with env
Solomon didn't dare to resist and could only comply.By the time everyone arrived at the back of the mountain, the sky was already starting to lighten.Directly ahead lied a deep canyon with steep cliffs.Woody tied one end of the rope to the bridge pillar, slung the coil of rope over his shoulder, and nodded to the people around him."Is there something wrong?" Woody asked the battered elder.The elder quickly responded, "No problem!"Woody pushed off with one foot, launching himself into the air toward the other side of the cliff.While Woody was halfway through the flight, his body began to plummet downward.From this angle, he didn't stand a chance of making it across.At that moment, a giant eagle swooped in from the side.The elder stood at the edge of the cliff and blew the eagle whistle.The giant eagle spread its wings, and with Woody stepping onto its back, they instantly shifted from falling to ascending.In the next moment, he landed steadily at the edge of the
Woody's bold statements echoed throughout the entire Martial Arts Union Headquarters.In the past, if anyone dared to speak to their union president like that, Solomon wouldn't even need to say anything–the followers alone would leave the person questioning their life choices!In front of the Headquarters, how could he be allowed to speak recklessly?The current situation was that Woody not only said something, but also tore down their gate and injured dozens of their people.Of course, this number wasn't set in stone.If anyone else dared to step up, Woody certainly wouldn't hold back and was more than willing to help the Martial Arts Union continue increasing the number of casualties."You... have quite the attitude!"Solomon, being the union president of the alliance, held a certain standing and position, so it was unlikely for him to just back down easily.In reality, he had been feeling extremely anxious for quite some time.The eight seasoned elders teamed up and still c
He didn't want anyone to mention it, especially in public."Where are the eight elders?" Solomon's eyes were filled with rage as he shouted loudly."Here!" The eight elders spoke in unison, giving their response."That person destroyed our place and harmed our followers; he should be struck down on the spot to serve as a warning to others," Solomon said through gritted teeth.The eight elders responded in unison, "Yes, sir!""Attack!"The eight of them were all masters of martial arts who had reached the Peak level.They had impressive performance!At the headquarters, in terms of both status and strength, they were second only to Solomon.Even the legendary Martial God wouldn't stand a chance against the combined strength of these eight individuals.They coordinated seamlessly, surrounding Woody and launching a flurry of fierce attacks from all directions.If it were someone else, they would have been torn apart by them.Woody remained calm, letting his mind wander for a m
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
Rudolf immediately became anxious. He shielded his granddaughter, Penny, while loudly rebuking, "Mr. Edwards, is this really how your Martial Arts Union treats guests? If word gets out, we won't be afraid of becoming the laughingstock of our peers in the martial arts community!"Solomon was completely unfazed. "You think you're worthy of being called guests?"Faced with a large group of people who were eyeing them aggressively, the three of them were no match at all.It was quickly dealt with!"Solomon, aren't you worried that Mr. Snider's disciple, Woody, will come looking for trouble if you do this?" Rudolf shouted loudly while struggling.Solomon couldn’t care less. “If he dares to come, I will make sure he gets a taste of being a prisoner! The person you were taught by is no good, so it's likely you won't be any better. It's fitting that you pay off your teacher's debt. Let both the old man and you face the consequences together!"What's all the fuss about Woody? He's just a
Solomon was using very offensive language.Miranda had a cold look on her face, but since she was on someone else's turf, she couldn't act out.Jaycee was actually Solomon's sister, and there was an age difference of over twenty years between them.After Jaycee was born, her parents passed away due to illness. Before their death, they entrusted her, still an infant, to the care of Solomon.Solomon had a hard time raising his younger sister by himself. Now, as he watched her grow into a beautiful and talented young woman, she was becoming increasingly admired by people in the martial arts community.There were so many people trying to arrange marriages with the Edwards family that they practically wore down the doorstep from their frequent visits.Solomon was overwhelmed with options, dreaming of his sister marrying into a wealthy family and securing a beautiful marriage.Dreams shattered!Jaycee, who was as fresh and naive, ended up being paired with someone considered old and
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. "The serpent's inner core!"In the past, she would not have paid any attention to the inner core of this quality.Every extra look is an insult to the title "Princess of the
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. At that moment, Edwin's
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." Woody volunteered.
