I unplugged my phone and looked. It was already past four in the afternoon.

I knew Mr. Kurt Thompson, Emma's grandfather, didn't like me, but regardless, he was still my wife's grandfather, so I had to attend his birthday party.

I hurried home to change into the new clothes I had just bought and then rushed to Tadich Gill restaurant.

The restaurant was about half an hour away from where I was, but the city center was often congested, especially at this time when everyone was leaving work, making the roads even more crowded.

As the rush hour approached, I worried about getting stuck in traffic, so I decided to take the subway.

Although it wasn't yet time for people to leave work, the subway was already packed with commuters. All the seats were taken, and a few people could only stand.

I stood near the entrance and just as the subway started moving, my phone rang. I took it out and saw an unfamiliar phone number on the display.

"Hello! Who is this?" I asked.

"Good day, Mr. Edwards. This

    [Ding! Master, you just rescued a beautiful girl, increasing your attractiveness value by 2 points! Experience value increased by 5000 points!] As the subway train just departed, the rich son-in-law system transmitted a reminder sound. [Ding! Congratulations, Master! The rich son-in-law system has been upgraded to level 2, and you have also received a lucky red envelope!] [Master, would you like to open the lucky red envelope immediately?] "Yes!" [Ding! Congratulations, Master! You have gained twenty million dollars!] Upon hearing this, my eyes immediately lit up. "Ting ting!" Soon after, my mobile phone notified me of a text message. I clicked to open it and indeed, my bank account had been credited with an additional twenty million dollars. I never expected that simply helping someone would also earn me rewards. "Ting ting!" The mobile phone once again transmitted a notification sound for a text message. I clicked to open it and saw that it was a message from the bank. T

    At present, there are only three porcelain items in the world called "Sangkhalok." I can't be completely certain if this is a genuine ancient treasure at its true value, but based on the knowledge I've acquired, its worth is extremely extravagant. It can be said to be a priceless treasure! I carefully wrapped the ancient porcelain item and held it close to my heart before entering the restaurant. As I stepped into the VIP room, I noticed everyone presenting birthday gifts to Mr. Kurt Thompson. The esteemed members of the Thompson family had already presented their gifts, leaving only a few grandchildren who hadn't yet given their gifts to Mr. Kurt Thompson. "Grandpa, this is a gift from me to you," Emma stood up with a bright smile and handed a golden box to Mr. Kurt Thompson. Mr. Kurt Thompson happily accepted the box and opened it in front of everyone. Immediately, a sparkling emerald ring appeared before Mr. Kurt Thompson. "I know you have a passion for collecting gemstones,

    "Hey! Andrew, what do you have in your hand? Is it a birthday gift?" Mike looked at the box in my hand. "Everyone, look, there seems to be a fast delivery invoice sticker on the box!" A customer exclaimed. "Fast delivery?" Mike acted as if he had discovered something new and said, "Did you buy the gift online?" "He couldn't afford to buy a gift. So, of course, he had to buy it online," Mrs. Laelia mocked. "That's right!" Mike chuckled and nodded. "You're right, I bought a gift." Seeing them looking down on me like that, I decided to give the antique bowl in my hand to Mr. Kurt Thompson to make those who looked down on me feel ashamed. "Did you really buy a birthday gift online?" Emma frowned unhappily and glanced at me, asking softly. "Yes!" I nodded seriously. "I told you that I would prepare a gift, so why did you ruin it?" Emma blamed me. She, like the others, felt that the gift I bought had no value and that giving it to Mr. Kurt would only make me lose face and feel em

    Emma's expression was extremely unpleasant to look at. Mrs. Brebeca glared at me with anger in her eyes as if she wanted to devour me alive. "A dog's mouth can't speak human language!" I coldly retorted. "Who are you cursing?" Mrs. Laelia lowered her face. "I'm cursing all of you ignorant fools!" "You..." "I'm telling you that the bowl in my hand is an antique porcelain bowl, the Sangkhalok blue-glazed bowl!" I said. "The Sangkhalok blue-glazed bowl?" Suddenly, an old man sitting to the left of Mr. Kurt Thompson spoke up. This old man's name was Cuthbert Rodriguez, he was a friend of Mr. Kurt Thompson's and also one of the most famous antique appraisers in the world. "Mr. Cuthbert Rodriguez, what's the matter?" Mr. Kurt Thompson immediately asked. Mr. Cuthbert Rodriguez didn't answer Mr. Kurt Thompson but stood up and walked in front of me, asking, "Is the bowl you're holding a Sangkhalok blue-glazed bowl?" "Exactly!" "Can I see it?" "Sure, but you can only look, not touch

    They couldn't understand why I possessed such a valuable antique bowl."Andrew, show me your antique bowl," suddenly said Mr. Kurt Thompson, laughing at me.Anyone with a clear mind could understand that Mr. Kurt Thompson wanted to take possession of my antique bowl."Grandpa, didn't you just say that my bowl is trash? If it's trash, then you don't need to look at it or touch it, to keep your hands and eyes clean," I sarcastically replied to Mr. Kurt Thompson.Mr. Kurt Thompson frowned, his veins pulsating on his forehead.Others were taken aback, not expecting me to speak to Mr. Kurt Thompson in such a manner.I approached to congratulate Mr. Kurt Thompson on his birthday, but he treated me just like any other member of the Thompson family, considering my gift to be worthless trash.If Mr. Kurt Thompson looked down on me, I had no intention of giving him the satisfaction.The more Mr. Kurt Thompson desired the green porcelain bowl, the less I wanted to give it to him.Revenge is a di

    I saw Emma holding a box of fried noodles in her hand."Just now I noticed that you didn't eat anything before leaving, so on the way back, I bought a box of fried noodles for you," she said. Emma smiled and handed me the box of fried noodles.I took the box and politely said, "Thank you.""Come to the dining room and eat, your parents have also returned, and they have something to discuss with you," Emma said with a smile.I knew right away that if there wasn't something they needed help with, Emma wouldn't be so kind to me. I nodded in agreement and followed Emma to the dining room.As I appeared, Mrs. Brebeca nudged Mr. Axel, who was sitting next to her. Mr. Axel cleared his throat and said, "Andrew, come sit with me!"I nodded and then sat across from them, placing the box of fried noodles on the table without opening it to eat immediately.Before going to my wife's house, I had returned to my parent's place and hidden the antique bowl there. Conveniently, I also had two plates of

    Today I made Mr. Kurt Thompson unhappy, and if Emma and I still want to get a divorce, he probably won't give much of his assets to her family in the will.Mr. Kurt Thompson had emphasized that anyone who wants to inherit from him must be married, and if they are the son-in-law of the Thompson family, they must accept their role as a son-in-law.Emma sighed, slightly calmer, and then said, "Andrew, don't forget that you already signed an agreement with me. Do you want to divorce me? It won't be that easy!""That's right!" Mrs. Brebeca chimed in, adding to Emma's words, "If you want a divorce, you'll have to compensate for the agreement!""If you want compensation, I will compensate. This is just a small matter!" I replied with a nonchalant tone.Mrs. Brebeca and Emma had planned to use the compensation money from the contract to control me, but they didn't expect me to ignore it, so they didn't know what else to say."Alright! We're family, let's not rush into a divorce because of a f

    Harris nodded, she seemed to trust me a lot.I reached out and gently held Harris' shoulder, then lightly touched it.My movements were gentle, but Harris let out a slight cry of pain.Seeing that, I said, "Just bear with it for a moment. Your arm is dislocated, and I need to reset it for you.""Or we could go to the hospital..." Before Harris could finish speaking, I swiftly and deftly twisted her forearm outward and then inward.The joint in Harris' arm made a sound, and she was in such pain that she broke out in a cold sweat, continuously moaning in agony.However, because my actions were too fast, she only felt the pain for a moment."You should try moving your arm now." I let go of Harris' hand and smiled.Harris cautiously lifted her left arm. After confirming that her left arm was no longer in pain, she felt confident and vigorously moved her arm."Wow! My arm is moving! And it doesn't hurt anymore!" Harris was excited, her smile blooming, and her eyes filled with astonishment.

    "Besides the pain, do you have any other adverse symptoms?""It seems... there's nothing else. I just had nausea and diarrhea. But... after resting, I don't feel nauseous anymore.""If you were no longer in pain, why didn't you tell me earlier?""I... after experiencing nausea and diarrhea, I felt really tired and didn't want to talk.""I understand. Rest a little more then."Mr. Dylan Dragon turned around, glancing at me, and said, "Has Jason's condition improved?"I didn't answer him directly and instead asked, "Mr. Dragon, do you still trust me?"Mr. Dylan Dragon hesitated for a moment, seemingly trying to figure out my intentions."If you still trust me, then let me continue treating your nephew," I continued.Mr. Dylan Dragon felt that I was no ordinary person because I appeared confident and composed when he attacked me. It seemed that I was truly skilled, just as Harris had mentioned.I smiled lightly, then went to the edge of the bed and placed my hand on Jason's neck.A few m

    "Are you using traditional Asian medicine to treat Jason?" Harris asked me in a surprised and hushed tone."Not exactly!" I immediately explained, "I'm using my superpower of therapeutic ability to expel the toxins from Jason's body!""Superpower therapy?" Harris felt skeptical about my words.She believed that superpowers only existed in movies. For someone who valued science like her, my mention of superpowers seemed like a gimmick.Although she believed in my competence, it seemed she couldn't believe I had superpowers.If I had said that I was using traditional Asian therapeutic methods, maybe she would have accepted it, as she had previously studied acupuncture for a long time. But now, her knowledge and worldview were being turned upside down by me.Despite her doubts, Harris remained silent as she watched me channel energy into Jason's body through the positions of his organs.At this moment, Jason's whole body was hot, covered in sticky sweat, looking like he had a fever above

    Mr. Dylan Dragon hesitated."Do the doctors at your hospital have a better method to treat my grandson?" Mr. Dylan Dragon asked coldly, glancing at Mr. Rowan."Uh..." Mr. Rowan didn't directly answer but advised, "But we can't just let a stranger treat Jason. You must know that if he applies any dangerous methods to Jason's body, Jason could lose his life at any moment."For Mr. Rowa, the fact that I am treating Jason will undoubtedly lead to his death.Mr. Dylan Dragon looked toward me, seemingly questioning whether I was trustworthy or not.However, at this moment, my gaze was firm, as if I was assuring him that I could indeed cure his grandson."Grandpa Dragon, please let Andrew try to treat Jason. Perhaps the treatment method he mentioned could help Jason," Harris tried to persuade Mr. Dylan Dragon once again."Alright, let him try the treatment," Mr. Dylan Dragon took a deep breath, finally making up his mind.At present, he could only give it a try.Seeing Jason tormented like t

    "Jason is lying on the hospital bed?" Harris asked with surprise.When Jason was still a child, he lived in the capital. His house was not far from Harris's, so they were close friends and often met.Whenever the adults gathered, Jason liked to cling to Harris and play with her and the other children.After hearing the conversation between Mr. Dylan Dragon and Harris, the medical staff present at the scene couldn't help but look puzzled.They had no idea that Harris knew Mr. Dylan Dragon.Harris hurried to the bedside and leaned over to look at Jason lying on the bed."Mr. Dragon, she is just a resident doctor at our hospital. I'm afraid she is not suitable to examine and treat your grandson," Mr. Smith stopped Harris.Mr. Rowan frowned, then added, "Doctor Harris, you are just a resident doctor. You can't casually treat patients."He didn't want the entire hospital to be responsible for a resident doctor casually treating patients.His point was not wrong, but..."If my granddaughter

    "I heard that the health condition of a grandson of some influential figure is not good." The doctor spoke without hesitation."Who could make the entire hospital medical staff rush to treat him like that?!" Another nurse asked."It's said to be some powerful chairman, but the specifics are unclear to me," the doctor responded.I could hear what they were saying, but I didn't care too much about it because it had nothing to do with me."Ding!"The elevator stopped on the sixth floor, and the automatic door opened as the nurse and doctor hurriedly exited.I pressed the close button.Not long after, the elevator stopped on the tenth floor.As I stepped out of the elevator, I ran into Harris by chance.Harris almost bumped into me as I was leaving the elevator."Young lady, why are you in such a hurry?" I asked with some curiosity."There's a critically ill patient, and the hospital director just called me to come and assess the situation a bit." Harris regained her composure, breathed o

    "You are too arrogant! Let me tell you, starting today, no hospital will accept you for work anymore!""I also said that your position as vice president is coming to an end!" Harris retorted, refusing to back down."You will regret what you just said!" Mr. Philip growled."The one who will regret is you, not me!" Harris said with contempt."Get out, get out of here immediately!" Mr. Philip was so angry that his whole body was trembling.Harris left the office. As she walked out the door, she glanced back at Mr. Philip and muttered, "I just want to be a peaceful doctor, but you provoked me. From now on, you will no longer have a place in the medical world of City A! No, to be precise, you will no longer have a place in the medical world of this entire country!"Though she spoke softly, her tone was extremely cold.Mr. Philip couldn't hear what she said.After muttering to herself, Harris took out her mobile phone and made a call while walking towards the staircase.As Harris left, Mr.

    Harris thought for a moment and said, "I'll find another big hospital and continue my internship there."I wanted to say something more to Harris, but at this moment, Harris's mobile phone rang."Sorry, let me take this call first."Harris took her phone and walked to the side to answer the call.After a while, she returned."Mr. Philip wanted to see me again. He said he wants to talk to me carefully one more time.""Alright."Ten minutes or maybe longer.Harris approached Mr. Philip's office door and knocked calmly."Come in!"A slightly hoarse male voice came from inside the office.Harris pushed the door open and walked in.Mr. Philip's office was as large as half a basketball court. Besides office furniture and cabinets, there was a sofa set and a coffee table for receiving guests.A middle-aged man sat behind a wooden desk.This man was the hospital's vice president - Mr. Philip.He was in his late forties, with a chubby head, big ears, and a potbelly.When he saw Harris enter, h

Now, I'll go meet the head of the department to demand an explanation about what just happened!" Mr. Luke said, standing up and turning to leave.He headed outside the office of the department head but was informed that the department head hadn't returned from the business trip yet.After thinking for a while, Mr. Luke went to the office of the hospital's vice president.The next morning...I bought breakfast and brought it to Mr. Reuben.But when I entered the hospital room, I saw that my mother and two younger sisters were sitting next to my father.
