“Grandpa, what’s wrong? Why are you so angry?” Cheryl asked as she grabbed James's arms. Her grandfather had always been amiable from her childhood to adulthood. He had never argued with anyone. It was for the first time that she saw him going red in the face and arguing with someone like this, he even wanted to start a fight.James’s narrow escape last time had made her experience quite the shock already.He must not get angry at such an old age, lest any harm would befall him.James’s forehead started sweating from rage. Just as he was about to say something after seeing his granddaughter, he suddenly noticed Alex was also next to her. His expression immediately eased, he said with an extremely affectionate smile, “Alex, you’re here too! This is really great, what an honor!”Upon hearing this, Phoebe was shocked, she couldn’t believe this at all.A while ago, Cheryl had told her that her grandfather held Alex in high esteem.However, Phoebe refused to believe this one bit. She

The old lady was furious. She pointed towards Darven and said, “Can you be any more shameless, you old geezer? Do you not know how to respect your masters? Even if he’s your teacher for only a day, you should regard him like your father for the rest of your life. Your master taught and helped you to finish your apprenticeship, yet you have forgotten about him. You didn’t even come back to attend your master’s funeral after his death. You ungrateful rascal, you even want to take your master’s sign. Where does your confidence come from? Where did you get the balls to do this?”Darven only huffed at the old lady, despite her questioning. “It’s none of your business, ain’t it? Old hag, stop butting your nose in this. Careful, or you might die on the spot!” “What did you say?” The old lady was so furious that she was about to explode on the spot.She was a famous traditional doctor. She was a person of virtue and prestige at normal times. When did she ever get insulted like this? She pa

The call went through immediately.Alex turned on the speaker right away and asked, “Azure, what’s the situation now? Is that fella, Matthew Mikail still here?”Azure’s voice was heard. “We’re almost done dealing with them, Mr. Rockefeller. We’ve gone through the formalities, so that punk has nothing to do with the hotel right now. I’ve told him to guard the parking lot, two of my men from Thousand Miles are watching him too. We’ll make sure he gets the hang of it as soon as possible.”“Oh, you’re pretty efficient!”“Mr. Rockefeller, Global Traders Hotel is yours from now on.” Azure said with a smile on the other end.He also didn’t expect the woman who walked together with Alex was the first daughter of the magistrate in Michigan.At first, it was quite difficult to buy such a large Global Traders Hotel with a mere cigarette depending on the unilateral strength of Thousand Miles Conglomerate. However, with the great assistance from Phoebe, the first daughter of the magistrate, t

James was enraged and yelled, “Darven Mikail, you are so bold. So you really were the one who stole the Heaven Defying Dragon Bone Needles back then. You rascal, how could you let our academy down? How could you let Master down?”Darven smiled nonchalantly. “Tsk, stole? Don’t say such a ugly word, I borrowed this from Master. He promised to lend it to me for a hundred years.”James yelled, “Bullsh*t! Back then, Master didn’t have the Heaven Defying Dragon Bone Needles to be used when his wife was terminally ill, just because you stole them. She ended up dying and Master bore the regret and hatred for the rest of his life. You brute! You deserve to die!”By this time, everyone could tell what kind of a person Darven was. Each of them gesticulated and gossiped about him with scornful stares.On the other hand, Alex’s eyes were brimming with delight.When Darven took the box out, he could tell that the object within was special. He could sense a unique energy flowing within it.Th

“Huh? What are these?”“They couldn’ be some glass products, right? Such broken trash is just sold for two dollars in flea markets at most! You can even get as many of them as you want! Heaven Defying Dragon Bone Needles whatsoever, I’m afraid they’re all for jokes!”Someone at the scene immediately ridiculed after seeing the thirty-six needles inside the box. It was a young man.He was Jack Hauffer’s grandson — Georgie Hauffer.Many thought the same as well because not everyone had seen such rare treasures in their lives.Even the old lady who was a traditional doctor had only heard of the rumors, she had never seen the true appearance of the needles.“Hmph, you’re just a young brat! What do you know?” Darven shot Georgie a contemptuous glare. “I’ll let you normies see just how powerful this set of bone needles are then!”He took one of the bone needles and gently punctured the glass coffee table next to him. The almost transparent needle directly pierced into the glass surface

Since it was something that had been left by his ancestors, of course, it had to be taken back.At this moment, he noticed that someone pinched his arm.‘Dammit, who is it? It hurts!’He turned around and saw that it was the rich young lady, Phoebe Larsen.‘Pinching my arm for no reason at all, are you looking for a beating?’Alex’s expression turned cold. He also reached out and gave her a heavy pinch in return.Right on her thighs.And it was on the inside of it.Yeah, his hands must have slipped. That was why.The young girl trembled from the pain immediately and almost screamed in pain.Fortunately, she still remembered that they were at the meeting venue, and it would be extremely embarrassing if she were to scream right now.She hurriedly used her hands to cover her mouth and glared fiercely at Alex. Tears filled her eyes, and in the next moment, she grabbed Alex’s arm and bit down fiercely.“Ouch!” She cried out in pain.Her teeth hurt!It felt as if her front teet

Once the three patients had been chosen, the venue immediately became more lively than before. Everyone present was well-known doctors from the area. Excluding the western doctors, as long as one was a traditional doctor, he would have learned the four ways of diagnosing a patient: to look, listen, question, and feel their pulse, and it was only the matter of higher or lower skills…These people looked at the three patients and started whispering among each other, discussing them.“The young woman’s stomach had a slight bulge. It seems like she’s pregnant.”“Look at that young boy. His face is yellow and thin. He’s obviously malnourished.”“And that old man, no matter how I look at him… He looks kind of strange. His face is too pale, and his body seems to be lifeless. Based on the situation, these signs would usually only appear on corpses. It’s going to be a bit annoying, this patient, and it really will be a test of skill.”Hearing the discussion around them, Cheryl started to

Phoebe mumbled softly to herself and turned around to see Cheryl looking at her with a weird look in her eyes. She suddenly had the feeling like she had been trying to steal her best friend’s boyfriend, but… She was the one who had been taken advantage of!***On the stage, Darven was coldly looking at Alex.Just now, he had secretly decided in his mind to find a chance to kill this kid. With his capabilities, it wouldn’t be difficult to kill an ordinary person.He didn’t expect that the kid would jump out and offer himself up like this.So, he rolled his eyes and said, “It’s you again, boy. What do you want?”Alex turned to James and said, “Master, to deal with this kind of thief who deceives their own master and ancestor, how is it worthy enough for you to personally take action? He’s not worthy enough. So, let me deal with him. You can just watch from the side and support me.”James was taken aback, but then he saw Alex give him a wink. Also, among the three patients, the cor

“What? Can a woman, who is six months pregnant, give birth on the spot within half an hour?”“Is he dreaming? Why didn’t he just say he will make the pregnant woman give birth to an adult, then?” Phoebe mumbled softly, really rendered speechless.Every single person in the hall gaped and was stunned. After a while, someone started laughing, and it wasn’t long before the entire hall had descended into roars of laughter. “This guy is just trying to be funny, right?”“It’s common sense that a woman will go through ten months of pregnancy. Does he actually want a woman who’s only six months pregnant to give birth? That’s forcing her to have a premature birth!”“Where did this weirdo come from?”Just at this moment, someone in the crowd yelled out, “Ah, I remember now. He’s that abandoned young man who was expelled from the Rockefeller family in California. He married into the Assex family and became known in California for being notoriously useless. Oh my gosh, how can a guy like th

Below the stage, another round of laughter had begun once again.However, at this moment, the young woman suddenly clutched her belly and screamed. Her face was filled with confusion, and she looked at Darven with surprise on her face and said, “Doctor Darven, I… My stomach hurts. It really hurts!”Why did she need to add the word ‘really’?Probably because it didn’t hurt just now!When she said it hurt, it was fake.However, now it really did hurt, and it felt like her intestines were twisted and tangled up. Darven was taken aback, and he said, “Let me have a look.”“No need,” Alex said instead. “I’ve already said it. She’s going to give birth! Once the time has come, the ripe melon will fall. This young lady, congratulations, you’re going to be a mother.”With just these few words, the young woman felt the pain intensify.She couldn’t even stand properly on her legs, and she was sweating profusely. More importantly, her belly continued to grow under everyone’s eyes at a s
