Chapter 119

Author: Only For You
Harvey scoffed. "As if our prestigious family would need to borrow any money. The very idea is laughable."

"Actually, Harvey, Nelson did mention you owed the bank money," Christina said. "I was planning to discuss that with you."

"Christie, do you really think that's possible?" Harvey smiled.

Irene jumped in and defended Harvey. "That idiot Nelson deserved to get fired for spreading such lies. My future son-in-law could easily pull out 150 million or even 1.5 billion if he wanted to."

Harvey waved dismissively, exuding poise and confidence. "Mrs. Stevens, you must be joking. A few hundred million, or even billions—that's a big deal. But to owe just a few million? Please, I wouldn't even bother with something so small."

Andrew stood up, clearly done with the conversation. Christina frowned and asked, "Andrew, are you leaving already?"

He replied flatly, "If I stay any longer, I'm afraid my intelligence will take a hit."

Christina's face darkened. "Fine, Mr. Lloyd. Don't l

    Jerome let out a hearty laugh. "Everyone fears death, and I'm no exception. Please, Mr. Owens Senior, enlighten me." Koda's greatsword strikes were overwhelmingly fierce, and Eric supported him with Phantom Mirage to create distractions. Mikayla was just half a step from the martial emperor level and had mastered the true teachings of the Owens family, making her combat power close to that of a martial emperor. However, the disruptions from Phantom Mirage were extremely deadly. Mikayla often felt as if her mind and body were being torn apart, pulled in two different directions. This made her increasingly wary, both shocked and furious. Unknowingly, she shouted in frustration. Hearing Mikayla's voice grow increasingly strained, Lorenzo could no longer hold back and directly attacked. Jerome shifted his stance, ready to meet Lorenzo head-on with his full strength. Meanwhile, Andrew retreated to the back, observing the entire battlefield. Under Lorenzo's orders and the urging

    Koda stood there with his massive greatsword resting on his shoulder, his expression cold and unreadable. "I'm giving all of you three minutes to decide. From this moment on, you either follow me and prosper, or fight me and die." The elders of the Advanced Medical Institute stared at him in disbelief while the apprentices all took a step back, their faces filled with fear and confusion. None of them could understand how Koda was still alive. Mikayla gritted her teeth and snapped, "There's no way you're Koda…" With a sharp whoosh, the heavy blade on Koda's shoulder shot toward her like a bolt of lightning. A fierce glint flashed in Mikayla's eyes as she raised her palm and smacked the sword aside as if it weighed nothing. Many apprentices who had been worried she would get hurt were stunned, especially since she had just knocked away Koda's massive sword with her bare hand. Everyone at the Institute knew exactly how powerful Koda was. Andrew chuckled. He said, "Well, Mikayl

    Lorenzo forcibly suppressed his urge to kill. With a darkened face, he walked out of the room. "Koda is already dead, so let's see who's playing tricks here." When he saw Andrew, he immediately sneered coldly. "As I thought! I knew it was you, refusing to give up your ambitions." The Advanced Medical Institute apprentices and elders who followed him all began rebuking Andrew one after another. The apprentice from earlier announced loudly, "We have already decided to nominate Mr. Owens Senior as the director of Advanced Medical Institute." Mikayla was incredibly smug. "Andrew, don't you think you're here a bit too late? Did you hear that? They all want my dad to be the director." Andrew shrugged. "Mr. Owens Senior, your ability to manipulate people is truly impressive. You killed Corbin, then framed Lennox for it. You killed this father-son pair in succession, then staged a fake sympathy play." He continued, "That way, without lifting a finger, the Advanced Medical Institut

    A junior apprentice suddenly spoke up, his voice shaky as he said, "Elders, Mr. Owens Senior, Ms. Owens, I-I have an idea. I think the position of Director should be given to Mr. Owens Senior, at least for a trial run." The moment those words landed, Lorenzo immediately shut it down. "Absolutely not! I am unworthy, and besides, I am not even an official member of the Advanced Medical Institute, so this young man's proposal must not be taken seriously." The elders looked awkward, as though they wanted to speak but held back. The apprentice said respectfully, "Then may I ask, Mr. Owens Senior, what level is your strength?" Lorenzo let out a regretful sigh and said, "I am incompetent and only reached the martial emperor level." The room instantly fell silent, so quiet that you could hear a pin drop. Lorenzo's humble bragging hardly needed any explanation, as it stood on its own. Martial Emperor was already far above anyone in the Institute, and even Quentin had never reache

    Lorenzo immediately spoke up. "I was just an outsider, and the only reason I came to Advanced Medical Institute was because I was ordered to and because I felt indebted to Mr. Livingston. I already did everything I could, yet it feels like fate was determined to punish me." He looked up and let out a long, frustrated sigh as his fists tightened, as if he was cursing the heavens for being unfair. Mikayla's eyes reddened instantly as she said, "Dad, please don't speak about yourself like that. None of this should fall on you. You've already done so much for the Advanced Medical Institute, and I think at this point, you should reveal your other identity." Lorenzo shook his head. "Mikayla, there's no need for that." Their father-daughter exchange left the disciples confused. One elder asked, "Mr. Owens Senior, do you have another identity? What is it?" Lorenzo let out a weary sigh. "Since you all ask, I won't hide it. I was actually Mr. Livingston's external disciple." He th

    The sudden burst of destruction and agony almost made Lennox pass out on the spot. The veins on his forehead throbbed violently as terror, despair, and hatred flooded his eyes, and he glared at Mikayla without blinking. "You bitch! You venomous, poisonous bitch! I hate you, Mikayla… I hate that I ever trusted you!" Mikayla sighed softly and pretended to look heartbroken. "Lennox, at this point, nothing you say matters anymore. You almost sound like you're blaming me. Mr. Corbin was such a kind and wise man. Without him, how would we have won today? But you… You used such a disgusting tactic to poison him." She continued, "Lennox, he was your father, your real father. How could you bring yourself to do it?" Hearing her false sympathy, how she deliberately twisted the truth, and her shameless accusations, Lennox was enraged. His energy core had already been destroyed, so he had no strength left to fight, yet her cruelty pushed him past the edge. No one knew where the strength c
