Timothy was stunned by the sight before him. His parents were sitting on the couch, and sitting on a small stool in front of them was Zack, who was peeling an apple and chatting with his parents and his younger sister, Tiana, making them laugh.When they heard the noise at the door, everyone turned to look. Seeing Timothy, Cora quickly stood up and hurried over. Without saying a word, she anxiously examined him from head to toe.Timothy scratched his head and chuckled. "Mom, what are you looking for?"Cora took Timothy's hand, feeling both relieved and anxious, saying, "I was worried about you! I called dozens of times from yesterday until now, but you didn't answer. I was so scared! "Fortunately, your friend came over and told us you were just busy and couldn't answer the phone. Otherwise, I would have called the police!"Taken aback, Timothy glanced at Zack with a smile, guessing what might have happened. Seeing his mother's weathered yet worried face, Timothy felt a pang of em
Joseph was visibly surprised. He had noticed that Zack's sharp suit and affluent demeanor suggested he wasn't an ordinary person, but he hadn't expected him to be such a big boss.Looking at Timothy, Joseph felt a sense of pride and reminded him, "Timothy, it's a real blessing to have a friend like that. You should maintain a good relationship with him. He's helped us a lot!"Timothy nodded and smiled without saying much. It wasn't Timothy who was lucky. It was Zack who was fortunate to know him.Joseph continued, "Timothy, today is your sister's regular leg check-up—it happens every three months. The hospital called, so your mom and I are taking her there. Do you have time to come with us?"Timothy hesitated for a moment. Tiana's leg would be completely healed after his acupuncture and the ointments he made. It didn't matter much whether they went for a check-up or not. However, since the hospital had called, he decided to go along. He nodded with a smile and said, "Sure, I'll c
Joseph handed the pack of cigarettes to the doctor with an embarrassed smile and said, "Doctor, I didn't bring much, but here's a pack of cigarettes for you. Please, could you check my daughter again—"The doctor's expression fell as he looked at the pack of cigarettes. His face darkened, and he was visibly irritated. Usually, he received money, phone cards, or various expensive coffee beans that were worth hundreds or even thousands of dollars. Even cigarettes, when given as gifts, were usually in boxes, not just a single pack worth only ten dollars.Seeing the shabby appearance of Joseph, the doctor's anger flared up. In an instant, he slammed his hand on the table and swatted the pack of cigarettes away. It fell onto Joseph and then dropped to the floor.James Zimmerman, the doctor pointed angrily at Joseph, shouting, "What are you doing, old man? What's the point of this worthless gift? Are you trying to harm me? Don't you know the hospital's rules against accepting gifts? Get o
James was horrified. His face twisted in fear as he tried to retreat, but he couldn't match Timothy's speed.Timothy, fueled by intense rage, moved like lightning. As his voice fell, he was already upon James. With a powerful kick, he struck the man's face, sending him flying across the room, chair and all. The impact left a dent in the wall, with a smear of blood marking the spot. James screamed as he slid to the floor, his face a picture of misery.James's glasses were shattered, a large footprint was embedded on his face, and his jaw was dislocated. With blood and teeth spilled from his mouth, he convulsed on the ground.Timothy's face darkened as he approached James, bringing with him a black cloud of murderous intent. Having just returned from his call, he had overheard James's scathing remarks towards his father. His family was his bottom line, and he would not tolerate any insults toward them.Meeting his gaze, James nearly wet himself. The look in Timothy's eyes was like th
"I don't care who started this mess. If you're hitting people, you're in the wrong! To cause trouble in a hospital is a double offense! Get him, everyone! Take this kid down!" Carl said.Timothy's gaze grew icy. "So you're just going to resort to violence without understanding the truth? You really think you're something."Carl looked at Timothy and his family, then burst into laughter as if he'd heard a joke. His gaze was filled with disdain. "The truth? You poor people think you deserve to talk about the truth? Who do you think you are? You're nothing but lowly scum, not worth discussing anything with!"James slinked behind the security guards, glaring at Timothy. "We're going to teach this whole family a lesson today. Mr. Zuckerberg, it's not just this brat causing trouble. His whole family is trouble. Teach them all a lesson. Thanks!"Carl grinned, revealing a mouthful of yellowed teeth. "No problem! I've been itching for a fight!"At once, the guards charged at Timothy with t
As more and more people gathered in the hallway, Joseph and Cora's faces turned pale. They had never been in such a situation before. Out of nervousness, their palms became drenched with sweat.Timothy remained calm and composed. He pulled over a chair and sat down. Then, he smiled at them and said, "Mom, Dad, you sit down. If I say tell you everything will be alright, it will be as I said."Cora nervously bit her lip and glanced at Joseph. Joseph returned her gaze with a bitter smile and said, "Honey, since Tim is asking us not to worry, then there's nothing to be worried about.""But…" Cora still felt uneasy.This was Lomford City's largest hospital. It most probably had a powerful and influential backing or benefactor. As ordinary citizens, they didn't even dare raise their voices around the doctors here.Now, Timothy had caused such a big scene at such a prominent place. Cora was understandably both anxious and worried.She took in Timothy's calm demeanor and sat down with a
Timothy snorted coldly, "Don't give me that nonsense. If I hadn't acted, would you have even shown up? Now you're all talking nicely and asking for an explanation. I'm the one who should be getting a reasonable answer from you."Right now, it's just one department that's problematic. If you push me any further, I'll turn your whole hospital upside down.""You wouldn't dare!" Isabelle screamed back."Try me!" Timothy challenged.Neither was willing to back down. The air became thick with hostility as the tension between them arose. Timothy stood his ground and stared frostily at Isabelle.Isabelle shuddered reflexively. For a brief moment, she found Timothy's gaze terrifying. She had a fleeting thought of backing down and submitting to him to avoid conflict.Outside, the murmuring of the crowd grew louder. People started to point and whisper at the scenario unfolding before them. Isabelle blushed slightly and bit her lip hard. She pointed at Timothy furiously and said, "I know
The cocky man leading the group of police inspectors was Ivan Barton, who happened to be Isabelle's cousin. When Isabelle saw him arrive, she went over to him and complained, "You're finally here, Ivan. That guy over there is the troublemaker!"She then pointed at Timothy. Ivan frowned as he sized Timothy up for a moment before scoffing dismissively. "I thought he was someone important, but he's just a punk! Don't worry, Isabelle. I'll make sure to teach him a lesson!""Thank you, Ivan," Isabelle replied happily.With a wave of his hand, Ivan's group of inspectors immediately assumed an aggressive stance. Ivan sneered, "Hey, punk. Will you put on the cuffs and come with us quietly, or should we give you a beating first? You have a death wish, stirring up trouble here."With a smug smirk, Isabelle looked at Timothy and taunted, "Where's all your bravado now? Weren't you so tough just a moment ago? If you're so good at fighting, why don't you try taking on the police inspectors
