“Punk, report your name! Who exactly are you?” The man in black held his bleeding right wrist pierced by the coin while clenching his teeth and glowering at Elijah.Elijah raised his eyebrows.Most people would be overwhelmed with immense pain when they received such an injury, and very few would be able to remain so calm and only let out a short cry of pain at the start.This was enough to show that he definitely wasn’t an ordinary person.Elijah guessed that these people probably came from the same organization as Layla did.However, Layla suddenly wanted out of the organization for some reason, but they weren’t willing to let her go, so they sent people to capture her.As for the chief these men in black had mentioned, Elijah reckoned that he was probably the head of one of the organization’s branches.Elijah glanced at them calmly and said in a frigidly composed tone, “You’re not qualified to know who I am! You just need to remember that if you still don’t get lost in a minute, yo

Layla pursed her lips, but she nevertheless said, “I don’t know how much you know about the organization, but it’s actually colossal. There is not only an enormous amount of experts, but it also has forces and branches all over the world. They’re not to be trifled with. My abilities aren’t considered extraordinary, and there are many people much better at martial arts than I am. So even the eight major families in the capital are trying their best to cooperate with the.. They don’t dare to be hostile to them either.” Looking at Elijah with a complicated expression, she said cautiously, “Going toe-to-toe against the shadow organization will bring about a huge tragedy if you’re not careful. I have to inform you about this. Actually, I’m very grateful to you for saving my life yesterday, so you don’t have to…” Before Layla could finish speaking, Elijah interrupted her. “It’s just a small organization. It’s no big deal. What I said last night still stands. If they come to me on their ow

“The patient’s injuries are too serious. We’ve already done our best, but it’s still very likely that he will remain bedridden forever, which is known as being in a vegetative state. Of course, if the situation turns for the better, he might still be able to regain consciousness.”The doctor comforted them helplessly and then dragged his exhausted body away.Looking at Albert lying lifelessly on the hospital bed with the ventilator and lots of tubes attached to him, Elijah felt rather sorrowful.Albert was just his family butler, and they didn’t share a very close relationship in the past. But he didn't deserve such a fate.Unfortunately, he was now in a vegetative state after the sudden car accident, and it was almost impossible for him to regain consciousness ever again.Making a decision to ensure that Albert would recover, Elijah walked out of the ward and went to a secluded area to make a call.Soon, a man on the other end asked in surprise, “Huh? I didn’t think that you’d take

Leo had casually taken this stack of bills from the car just now, and it happened to come in handy now.There were around sixty bills.The middle-aged woman’s eyes were immediately glued to the stack of bills.Most people living in such a shabby place were struggling to make ends meet and earned meager wages.This stack of bills was worth about a thousand dollars, enough to cover a few months’ worth of living expenses for the woman.All that was required of her was to ask someone to come out.It was really effortless.For people used to being poor, such a temptation was really difficult to resist.Thus, after being conflicted for a while, the middle-aged woman finally opened the door, reached out to accept the money, and said with some slight embarrassment, “Ah, you are so polite. It’s just a small favor. You’re being too kind, haha.”After smiling, she yelled inside, “Valerie, come out!”Two seconds later, a female voice sounded inside the house, “Aunt, you called me? Wait a minute.

Elijah looked at the little girl hugging Valerie tightly.She was emaciated, feeble, and extremely pale, looking as though she was about to fall at any moment.This poor little boy immediately made Elijah think about his daughter, Claire.Both of them were almost the same age, and yet this little boy was so pitiful that Elijah couldn’t help feeling a trace of sympathy for him.Elijah admired Trevor and Valerie as parents.They might not necessarily be good or capable people, but they were indeed a pair of good parents who loved their son greatly.Moreover, Elijah didn’t want to see yet another person face impending death just because they couldn’t afford to pay their medical expenses.This was why Elijah decided to help this family—so that this little boy could live healthily in the future.He reckoned that this little boy’s illness shouldn’t have reached its worst yet. Besides, tens of thousands meant nothing to Elijah now.“Your son is about the same age as my daughter,” Elijah said
