Liam frowned and asked him, “What’s the matter, Mr. Smith?”Smith bit the bullet and said, “Mr. Weaver, it’s like this. I gave my son the medicine that you gave me and now, my child’s condition has improved significantly. So, I wanted to ask you, if my child were to take one pill a day, how much can his situation improve? In addition, I want to ask you if this medicine can cure cancer completely or not?”Liam said, “I can’t give you a precise answer because the effect of using this medicine varies with different conditions. However, no matter how serious the cancer patient’s condition is, as long as he or she starts taking the Apothecary Restoration Pill, their condition will definitely keep improving. Even if the condition is very serious, it can surely be cured after long-term use.”After saying that, Liam then added, “I would suggest that you observe your child’s condition with the medication first and see how much your child’s condition will improve after taking this box of Apot
Liam was enlightened upon hearing Charlie’s words.He hurriedly smiled and said, “Master Wade, you’re indeed still the most resourceful when it comes to dealing with such people! If I leave now, I think that Smith will definitely want to chase us all the way to Oskia, then!”Charlie laughed and said, “He can come here if he is willing to do so, but you should not entertain him even if he were to come. Don’t pay any attention to him either if he comes to meet you.”As Charlie said that, he then added, “By the way, didn’t you have to look for a public relations company and spend a lot of money just to meet him? Make him look for a public relations company to meet you too.”Liam laughed and said, “Master Wade, we do not have such a company in Aurous Hill.”Charlie laughed in turn and said, “It does not matter. Just let Albert come out and do it part-time, then.”After saying that, Charlie said, “By the way, how much did you spend in order to meet that guy named Smith?”Liam hurried
Smith hurriedly said, “There is a significant improvement, and the doctor said that he is temporarily out of the life-threatening situation.”Liam asked, “How many pills have you given him?”“One!”Liam then said, “There are no side effects with our Apothecary Restoration Pill. If his condition is critical, you can give him more of the pills. He can take one pill every half an hour, and he can just take all seven pills today so that it can be guaranteed that he will not be in a life-threatening condition for at least the next two or three months. Otherwise, if his cancer cells continue to spread and grow, he might fall into a critical condition again soon.”Smith hurriedly asked, “If we finish all the pills today, what about tomorrow, then?”Liam said, “I’ve already told you that if he finishes all the pills today, it can at least ensure that he can continue to live for another two or three months. If his cancer cells are well-controlled, it might not be impossible for him to live
Very soon, Jimmy’s ward was filled with a large number of doctors in white coats.All the top oncologists in the entire Mayo Clinic were gathered here.Those who could enter the ward were without exception all the heads of departments and the big shots in the laboratory, whereas those with a slightly lower rank could only stand and watch in front of the large glass window outside the ward.Everyone had heard that there was a huge miracle in the ICU and that the FDA executive, Smith’s son had actually gotten a huge therapeutic effect because of an Oskian traditional medicine. It was also said that he would be monitored as he continued taking this medicine. Therefore, no one wanted to miss out on this opportunity to either witness a miracle or a rumor. At this point, Jimmy then swallowed a pill in his mouth with his mother’s help.The pill melted in his mouth once again, and Jimmy was surprised as he said, “Mom, the pill just melted in my mouth... It melted even faster than cotton
“Really?!” When Jenny heard this, she was ecstatic, and her tears fell one after the other.Although she was not a doctor or an expert in the field of medicine, she was still a top student who had graduated from the Ivy League, after all.She knew that the reason why her son could not see anything was because his optic nerve had been compressed by the tumor.So, now, she knew very well that since her son was gradually regaining his vision, this proved that the tumor that was compressing his optic nerve had, in all its probability, gone into remission!She choked up and said, “That’s great! That’s really wonderful!”The strength in Jimmy’s hands had also improved greatly and so, he struggled to lift his right hand, which had the IV infusion tube and the blood oxygen monitoring probe attached to it with great difficulty as he gently wiped the tears off the corners of his mother’s eyes and said, “Don’t cry, Mom. You should be happy that I’m getting better!”The fact that Jimmy was a
Very soon, the doctors and nurses wheeled the young Jimmy to the nuclear medicine center. After being injected with the contrast agent, Jimmy was then taken to the CT room for a full scan.Half an hour later, the scan results came back, and a large group of doctors gathered in front of the computer to review Jimmy’s latest CT images. The attending doctor simultaneously opened the images from half a month ago, and upon comparing them, he exclaimed, “This is simply too unbelievable! A large number of lesions in Jimmy’s body have actually shrunk substantially!”Since Jimmy’s cancer had already reached the end-stage, there had long been multiple metastases including tumor lesions in the lymph nodes, bone, liver, and lungs, and all of them were not small in size. The largest of them was even as big as the size of a baby’s fist.Due to the exhaustion of treatment methods, Jimmy’s cancer cells had been spreading even faster and faster, and the tumor had been growing. According to t
So, she could not help but ask Smith, “Honey, you have to find a way to get another box of the Apothecary Restoration Pills for Jimmy today! Based on the current trend, he should already be able to go home and recuperate if he takes another box of the medicine!”Speaking of this, she could not help but choke up again as she said, “Jimmy has not slept at home for three years now...”Ever since Jimmy had entered the critical stage, he had not been released from the hospital’s twenty-four hours supervision. Even when he had gone to Europe to receive treatment, he had also been sent directly from the hospital to the airport before taking a special medical charter plane directly to Europe. So, for Jenny, she would really love to be able to bring her son home.In her opinion, as long as they could ensure that her son could take the Apothecary Restoration Pill, he would certainly be able to get out of the hospital and recover properly at home.After all, to her, the credibility of the A
At this moment, Smith simply did not know that Liam had not even left him with the opportunity to kneel and grovel to apologize to him.Meanwhile, Liam was already on the flight route back to Aurous Hill.Although the speed of Charlie’s private jet was not as fast as the Concorde, the interior decoration in the private jet was not any worse than that of the Concorde. Right then, Liam was resting on the plane that was more luxurious than a five-star guest room, and he did not suffer any hardship or toil on the journey back at all.On the other hand, Smith had started utilizing his connection in the Washington Police Department early in the morning to begin investigating Liam’s place of residence. As Smith only knew how to pronounce Liam’s name without knowing the proper spelling, it took a lot of trouble for him to find it.Later, his friend from the police department then used the screening method to collect the statistics on all the Oskian male travelers who had checked into Was
Yolden nodded slightly. "He does.""My gosh…" Matilda murmured. "That's too much… Ashley's son? A member of the Acker family and the Wades?!"Pausing, she then asked in confusion, "Wait, if Charlie has so much power and influence, why would he permanently reside in Aurous Hill… No, why would he be content as Jacob Wilson's son-in-law? Does Jacob know who he really is?""Definitely not," Yolden shook his head. "There were some compelling circumstances, and his identity is a sensitive one. That's why I'm asking you to tell no one except Paul—and even then, you should only tell him if he can keep the secret."Matilda was sharp enough to pick up on the reasoning, too. "Charlie's hiding because of his parents' accident, isn't he?""Yes," Yolden sighed. "He has his plans, but I didn't pry since I can only do that much, let alone help him on that.""Got it," Matilda nodded repeatedly. "Don't worry. My lips are sealed… And you just said you're resigning? Are you going to help with this e
"That would be Ashley Layna Acker," Matilda replied without hesitation. "She was our age, as well as a major investor in Silicon Valley, while we were only starting to get our first clients. It's no exaggeration to say that she's the shining example in many case studies when it comes to business."Pausing, she then continued, "And she used to be your classmate, right? I remember you mentioning that in our conversations before.""Yes," Yolden sighed emotionally. "She was a classmate and the star of our generation."Matilda nodded but soon shook her head, "Wait, weren't we talking about Charlie's car company? What does that have to do with Ashley Acker?" "Here's where I let you in on a secret," Yolden said. "But first, you have to promise me that you won't tell anyone except Paul."Matilda nodded without hesitation. "Don't worry—if it's a secret, I won't tell Paul either."Yolden scratched his head. "Actually, Paul should know. We are going to marry soon, and he's my stepson, lega
In fact, the legal department of major enterprises covered many responsibilities, the chief of which concerned intellectual property, which was why veterans were needed to lead.Additionally, Charlie trusted Matilda's accomplishments in the legal field, especially since she had worked in the United States for years.With Curtis Autos' intended expansion worldwide, that meant the legal department should also know the laws of countries abroad, ready to file or respond to lawsuits at any time. After all, competitors may use the law to impede their growth, along with the government applying unfair policies to impede their development and impact on local businesses.Moreover, Charlie considered Paul young and therefore lacking in experience, not to mention that it was not likely he would abandon his family's law firm. As such, the ideal solution was to poach Matilda for now.As for Matilda, she was still in the dark and had no idea what she was in for, asking Charlie in confusion, "Lega
Later, after Charlie told Jeremiah over the phone about the joint venture with the Ackers to establish Curtis Autos, the old man was awash with tears, especially after Charlie told him that it was Keith who suggested it. After all, Curtis was his favorite son whose death he could never really get over. Moreover, he once believed that only his family mourned Curtis while the Ackers never did, and he held a grudge over his son's passing. As such, he was surprised that Keith held such great respect toward his late son and didn't hesitate to say yes when Charlie invited him to Aurous Hill to sign an agreement with the Ackers.Still, Charlie wasn't in a hurry to arrange for a specific time, and he was going to let the Ackers sort out the human resources of Godot Autos over a few days. It still wouldn't be too late by then.Moreover, he was keen to allow the buzz to have time to grow so that the automotive industry would be astounded by the joint project between the Ackers and the Wade
Christian was the first to exclaim in approval, "Yes! Curtis Autos sounds wonderful! It has my vote!""Seconded!" Kaiden nodded, pumping the air with his right fist. "I've looked up to Curtis the most, and I absolutely agree with naming the company after him!"Jaxson was nodding too. "Me too!""Yes!" Lulu chirped.Yolden couldn't help agreeing as well. "Curtis Autos is definitely a good name!"Merlin raised his hand gingerly as well. "Quit it with your flattery already," Keith chuckled, and he turned toward Charlie solemnly. "In the end, Curtis is Charlie's father, and the final decision goes to him!"Charlie's eyes were welling up with tears—his parents had been gone for almost three decades, yet he had never thought of dedicating anything to their memory.As such, Keith's suggestion to use Curtis's name for the car company left him thrilled. After all, wouldn't his father's soul be honored if Curtis Autos rocked the country, maybe even the world?With that in mind, he nodd
Charlie also had to agree that this was an opportunity to formally reconcile the Wades and the Ackers.While he couldn't reveal himself just yet, the Wades and the Ackers had been in-laws for years. Even if they had had a dispute for the longest time, restoring good relations made sense now that the Ackers had come to Oskia, and it wouldn't arouse any suspicion.That was why Charlie agreed to it without hesitation, even making a mental note to invite his paternal grandfather, Jeremiah, to Aurous Hill.The old geezers could meet up and clear the air while deciding on the partnership.Yolden was prepared to resign as a professor as well so that he could help the Ackers and Charlie fully develop their automotive company.With a general direction planned, he asked everyone, "Since we're creating a new brand, has anyone come up with a name?"No one was feeling inspired at that moment, but that was when Lulu, who had been silent throughout, said, "Since Charlie and our family are worki
Neither Charlie nor the Ackers expected Yolden's insight to cover all corners.In fact, it felt like the man had a blueprint ready and was only waiting for the time to put it to use.That was why everyone was immensely approving of Yolden and wanted no other man for the job of CEO.Kaeden smiled, "Well, since everyone has agreed, let's put this to rest as soon as possible—this will be a joint investment between our family and the Wades, and Professor Hart will take the post of CEO. Let's all do our best to make this a good one!"Yolden also made up his mind, deciding that he didn't want to let slip a chance to realize his ambitions. "I'll resign from the university after my honeymoon trip. It probably shouldn't be long, and I can get involved in early preparations via teleconference."Charlie nodded. "Then, we can have Uncle Kaeden stay on schedule while I'll ask the Wades to send a representative over to sign a memorandum for the investment."Keith smiled and nodded. "You should
Charlie hadn't been born and raised in Aurous Hill, but he still started living here at the age of eight and was more attached to this place than Eastcliff.If he was going to take part in this automotive investment with the Ackers, he naturally found Aurous Hill the ideal location.Not only would it create a huge number of jobs for Aurous Hill, but it would also rake in much economic flow for the region.Yolden also nodded at his suggestion. "If the first plant is meant to cover the demand of the entire local market, there's no reason for a coastal plant. Aurous Hill stands at an intersection between the north and the south, so transportation is convenient. It's also killing two birds with one stone, as Mr. Wade is fond of the city."Charlie couldn't help but agree. "I won't lie—Aurous Hill has been good to me, and I hope to give back. Nothing's better than succeeding in that respect."Yolden spread his hands, "Heavy industries are certainly ideal to contribute to Aurous Hill's e
Yolden had actually been researching new energy for a while—in fact, it was when Tesla's first car models were produced.He was passionate about the subject and had his own opinions as well as ambitions, but he was busy teaching, so he couldn't realize any of it.But was this not a golden opportunity tailor-made for him?Seeing that Yolden was clearly interested, Charlie turned toward Kaeden, "Actually, the professor is getting married soon. There's no way we'd split up newlyweds so soon after the wedding, right? So, is it possible to set up base in Aurous Hill instead?""Not a problem!" Kaeden replied without hesitation. "Our family is planning to return to Oskia anyway, and everyone knows about Ashley and Curtis. So, why don't we invest in this enterprise alongside the Wades and have the base set up in Aurous Hill? And then bring Godot under as a subsidiary?"Turning to Yolden, he continued, "By the way, Godot's plant is already in the province—barely 100 miles from Aurous Hill,
