Raphael, who had been quiet all this while, immediately got up. If his master had shown even a hint of displeasure, he would immediately put down the old man without the need for Jason to do anything. The scene was quiet as everyone was stunned at the ordeal. Even Silas was cautiously examining Jason’s expression. Under everyone’s gaze, Jason only smirked. “Close it down? That’s good! If you close down the medical center, I’ll focus my efforts on formulating cosmetic products for my wife.” Seeing the response, everyone took a sigh of relief. Aklos grunted coldly. “How frustrating.” He kept quiet after that, feeling unwilling to give up. He knew that it was not a suitable topic for him to bring up due to the occasion today. Although he had not planned on causing trouble today, he knew that what he said would greatly inconvenience Jason since many guests were present. The truth is that Jason had not minded what happened. If those words were spoken by someone else, they would have
The relatives naturally followed along. They did not dare to leave since Jason had not dismissed them. They looked pitiful with their cautious and humbling demeanor, but they had more or less deserved it considering what they had done. Of course, Jason had not purposely antagonized them since they would not affect him anymore in the future. Jason would consider them to be lesser than animals if they were not Madison’s relatives. He knew that he did not need to torment them further as they were already embarrassed enough as it is. Yet, Jason had underestimated their shamelessness. Since they even wished to make connections with the affluent people by using their relations with Jason. Jason had not commented, but Icy already spat out her thoughts. She had been harboring her anger since this morning, waiting for this moment. “Eh, what was the thing that you said before? Isn’t Jason a dog that your family reared?” Icy had cautiously glimpsed at Jason as she spoke those words. Seein
Sadly, no one could answer her question. During the evening, the medical center was not open for business. Madison had not returned to the beauty salon either, and she went home directly. The whole family was enthusiastically opening red packets. Of course, Miranda was not included as she had been studying abroad. “One hundred and twenty million dollars. Wow, you should do another opening ceremony soon!” Madison held the cheques with joy and excitement in her eyes. Jason could not help but chuckle at her expression. “Fine, I’ll do whatever my wife says.” “Nevermind. As if we aren’t rich enough.” She pouted in frustration. The in-laws could only chuckle dryly on the sidelines since they had no share of the money. Since it was their daughter’s money, she would give it if they asked for it. Jason had not cared about the money; otherwise, he would not have given it all to Madison. At this moment, the mother-in-law had come to a realization that the love Jason had for Madison wa
After Chris left, Blaker showed up in front of Elder Greene. “Elder, what do you need?” Blaker asked Elder Greene. “Useless son-in-law?? Unbecoming?” Elder Greene smiled spitefully at the respectful-looking Blaker. The next moment, he repeatedly smashed the well-polished walking stick towards Blaker. He was angry before, but he could not lash it out against Chris. If Blaker had not affected his judgment back then with those comments, he would not have been this extreme towards Jason. “Elder, it’s my fault. Please spare me.” Blaker knelt on the ground and cried out to Elder Greene. He had served the elder for many years, but it was the first time he had seen the elder being this angry. Thus, he did not dare to dodge the strikes. It was a sad sight to see as he looked at the elder with a face full of wounds. “Fault? You know what you did?” Elder Greene grinned. Blaker started to sweat. He was unsure which aspect he had done wrong, so much so that it caused the elder to be thi
The next day, Jason went to the medical center as usual. It was quiet compared to yesterday’s celebration. There were only three people in the medical center, Icy, Dustin, and Jason. After Jason had offered guidance to Dustin once again, Dustin joyously occupied a corner of his own. As for Icy, she still looked at Jason unhappily. Jason had not paid it any mind since he knew that she would at least defend his honor when it came to it. He also did not mind offering guidance to her. She held goodwill towards him, even though she did not express it. Many people had started to take notice of Jason’s medical center because of yesterday’s opening ceremony. There were much more patients today when compared to the past. The visitors came for both gathering prescriptions and meeting the doctor. It was a good sign for his business. Since his medical skills were good enough, he was only waiting for the reputation to grow. Once it did, more people would naturally come. As for now, Jason’s re
The business in the afternoon was not as busy as it was in the morning. There were a few patients, but they just had minor issues. There were no diseases that had intrigued Jason as he wrote their prescriptions after the appointment. Although it was a quiet day, it was not an unproductive day as the news of a divine doctor presiding in the Stardust Clinic had spread out. The rumor was that the doctor could identify all symptoms just by reading the pulse. Out of curiosity and need, many visitors came. Jason felt that most of the people that came were only here to investigate the claim. At night, the visitors somehow increased. All the people that initially distrusted Jason’s abilities were all impressed when they left the medical center. It was because that Jason could accurately identify all the symptoms of each patient. Of course, all the visitors only had minor diseases since those with major diseases would not visit this place. At sunset, Jason left work as usual and went to f
They stayed silent for a while in the car. “Right, you have any ideas on the new product that I asked you to formulate?” Jason was silent. “Hey, I’m talking to you!” Madison angrily pinched Jason’s shoulder. “Didn’t you told me to shut up?” Jason said. “Fine, I’ll allow it. Are you going to ignore me if I tell you not to speak?” She whined coyly. “I’ll need more time to research it. Massaging is the best way.” Jason blinked. “Scram.” She was exasperated. She could never accept giving massages. Jason rolled his eyes as he thought she was not easily satisfied. They returned home and ate dinner. Somehow, the atmosphere was dull and silent, perhaps because Miranda was not around. The old couple was enthusiastic as always, especially since Madison had given them two million dollars. Likely because Madison was unwilling to leave her parents out of her earnings. She had mentioned it to Jason, knowing that he would not be such a petty person. Regardless, money was something tha
“Jason,” Madison called out to Jason cautiously. “It’s nothing.” Jason shook his head and smirked. He could not believe that he had lost his composure despite having lived for 5,000 years. He was unconvinced there were no solutions to his problem since he believed that when there’s a will, there’s a way. He had seen all of the great monarchs of the ancient past. He knew that they were chosen by the Gods or fated to be kings were nothing but fabrications and claims. He knew it was only some people’s deluded convictions as no one was born unique. They achieved their accomplishments due to their unmoved determination. “Let’s go home!” Madison pouted and whispered after seeing that Jason was unhappy. He looked at her wronged expression and smirked. He felt that the expression she made was really adorable. After pinching her puffy cheeks and saw her grew annoyed, he laughed. He then held her thin waist. “Let’s go.” She pouted and lowered her head. Meanwhile, a light smile had ap
