"Young man, don't make promises you can't keep. Everyone hits a rough patch, and sometimes even a hero can be tripped up by the smallest thing. You could always work at my hospital as a doctor. I promise you'll be well-compensated," Wasyl said, coming down from his high horse. He could tell the boy was not from a rich family by his plain clothes and spoke with a sense of superiority—after all, who did not like money?Before Elio could say a word, Yvonne spoke up with a frown, "No need for that. Elio won't ever be short on cash; he's got me."Wasyl's frown deepened, and he said grumpily, "Well, I won't keep you. I'm a busy man. I'll be off." He stormed toward the door, clearly angry."I'll walk you out," Yarely offered politely, her hips swaying as she moved. She was glowing with health, looking as fresh as a spring morning.Tony shot Elio a nasty look and left with the two nurses following him.They were ignored by everyone else. Cherish and the others clustered around Elio like h
Cherish was extremely grateful. "Elio, I'm a lawyer. If you need my help in the future, feel free to ask. I'll definitely repay the favor."Yvonne grinned. "She’s the real deal, you know! She’s real famous in the legal circle."Elio's heart skipped a beat. His corporation would inevitably need legal advice someday, so he smiled and said, "When the time comes, I’ll have to trouble you, Miss Wilson."Cherish pouted. "Don’t call me that. Any friend of Yvonne’s is a friend of ours. Call me Cherish! Or I’ll get mad."These young women around him were all elites in the industry, so Elio was more than happy to befriend them. "Alright, Cherish."Finally, it was Helen the TV host's turn. She had a bright face and dewy eyes. She wore a pink dress that wrapped around her graceful figure as she sat elegantly on the sofa.Elio often saw her on television because his in-laws liked to watch the local news channel. They watched her program almost every day, so she had already left a deep impress
Lydia had some minor digestive problems. Elio dealt with them easily.Yvonne blushed. "How about me…?"Elio replied, "You're on your period. There’s nothing I can do about it."Unexpectedly, the women burst into laughter, leaving him confused. It took him a moment to understand the implication.Yvonne rolled her eyes at him, blushing bright red. "Watch what you’re saying!"Elio shrugged and said helplessly, "They're the ones overthinking things."Yarely showed up again after a brief absence. She had changed into another lake-green sun dress, with bright and vibrant colors that looked completely different from her previous style. She looked even more graceful and charming."Why did you get changed, Yarely?" Warren asked in confusion.Yarely smiled and said, "It's no big deal. I was cooking some of my specialties as a welcome gift for Elio, but I got some oil on my clothes, so I changed into this…"As soon as she said that, all the girls leaped with joy. "Oh my goodness! Yarely
Yarely's car was a dark green Bentley Continental worth more than three million dollars. It drove steadily on the street.Yarely was very curious about Elio, who was sitting in the passenger seat next to her. She asked gently, "Where do you want to go?""Take me to Parallel Cars Dealer by the port," Elio responded."Are you going there to buy a car? I'll buy you one when we get there later."Yarely was still trying to figure out how to repay the favor. This would be a good opportunity. After all, young people loved cars. She wanted to give him an expensive car as a thank-you.Elio smiled. "No, I'm going to meet someone. Besides, I don't need you to buy me a car. We’re friends, aren’t we? We shouldn’t put a monetary value on our relationship."Yarely was even more impressed by his modesty, smiling brightly. "You're right. We're best friends from now on."Elio nodded in delight. "Of course. If you need my help with anything, just let me know."Yarely's red lips parted slightly. S
It was noisy on the other end of the line. Elio could even hear someone cursing loudly. He said worriedly, "Wait, don't hang up first. Where is your place? I'll head there now.""My home is in the East Star District… Ah!" However, before Sunny could finish speaking, there was a click and the call was cut off."What's wrong?" Elio's question did not get a response. He frowned and guessed that someone had smashed Sunny’s phone. She was clearly in danger, so he had to rush over as soon as possible.Just then, the manager, Taylor, approached Elio. They could not let such a high-profile client get away, after all. "Master Rinz, are you here to look at cars again? Which model would you like?""We'll talk about that later. Hurry up and arrange a car for me. I'm going to Sunny's house. Do you have her address?" Elio instructed bluntly."Alright, please wait a moment. I'll make the arrangements. Oh, and I do have her address on her employee file."The manager did not delay for a second. T
The pain in his wrist was bone-deep. Pardo could not take it anymore, so he gritted his teeth and shouted, "Hey! Let go of me, or I’ll kill you!""Behave yourself," Elio barked in a low voice as he tossed Pardo’s hand aside, sending Pardo staggering back."Mr. Rinz…!" Sunny shouted happily when she saw Elio, but then she began to frown with worry. Pardo and his gang had done all kinds of evil things. She was afraid that they would harm Elio.Elio nodded and comforted her. "Don't be afraid, I'm here. I'll definitely seek justice for you and your mother.""Thank you, young man." Sunny's mother quickly thanked him. However, seeing how young Elio was, she thought he would not be able to win against Pardo, so she said softly, "But I'm afraid this is beyond you.”"Don't worry, there's nothing beyond my capabilities," Elio replied firmly.Pardo steadied himself and glared at the young man. When he took in Elio’s boyish face and cheap clothes, he immediately lowered his guard and snapped
Elio's eyes were filled with disdain. "Go ahead, call whoever you like. I'll wait. However, don't say I didn’t warn you. Once you call anyone, I'll break your legs."As the overlord of this area, Pardo would never be threatened by an unknown kid. He said angrily, "You have guts, kid. I'll break you later." He then dialed a number and shouted anxiously, "Blackson, bring all our mates over for a fight. And bring your weapons too!"Sunny and her mother knew how formidable Pardo was, and they became even more afraid. Sunny's mother begged, "Pardo, can't we just pay back the money? It has nothing to do with this young man. Please let him go."Pardo spat and gritted his teeth. "It's too late now. He beat up my mates! I can’t let that slide.” Sunny approached Elio and said anxiously, "Hurry up and run. Don't delay any longer, or you won't be able to escape later.""Why should I run? Don't worry, no one would dare to kill me." Elio was completely unconcerned. Still, in order to protect S
There were many armed and dangerous men gathered around their house now. Sunny's mother was almost paralyzed with fear. Her entire body trembled as she said, "What should we do? What should we do?"Worried that something might happen to Elio, Sunny urged him anxiously, "Just leave already. Don't worry about us."However, Elio said in a tone that allowed no argument, "Listen to me, and go into the house. I'll take care of this."Sunny was helpless in the face of Elio's stubbornness. She could only whisper, "Then be careful, and find a chance to escape." After that, she helped her mother into the house and closed the door. She then watched nervously from the window.The men roared and rushed forward, swinging their clubs at Elio. "Bastard, I'll beat you to death!""You should have known better than to pick a fight here!"Elio moved as fast as lightning, snatching the wooden club from a man's hand and kicking him to the ground. Then, he raised the wooden club to block another atta
