LEONARD'S POVI did not say another word.I looked at the waitress and gave her a calm expression before speaking."Please, lead us there."The waitress immediately nodded."Of course, Mr. Storm."She turned around and began walking toward the front row, while Ava and I followed behind her. As we approached the table, I noticed several people turning their heads in our direction. Some recognized me immediately, while others appeared to be wondering why I had been given a special seat so close to the stage.The waitress finally stopped beside the table and smiled before saying."Please, have a seat, Mr. Storm. This table was prepared specifically for you and your guest."I nodded and replied."Thank you."She bowed slightly before turning around and walking away.Ava and I sat down.The moment the waitress was out of hearing distance, Ava leaned closer to me."Boss, something feels a little fishy."I looked at her."What do you mean?"She lowered her voice."Think about it. Why would

LEONARD'S POVI looked at the doctor for a moment before slowly shaking my head."If you truly believe that doctors know better, then perhaps you should save Mr. Kingston's daughter instead of sitting here and telling him that there is no way to save her anymore."The doctor's expression immediately changed.His eyebrows drew together, and I could see his teeth clench as he stared at me."What exactly are you trying to say?" he asked.I remained calm."What I am saying is very simple and very clear."I looked directly into his eyes."You should not be too quick to write off the life of a young girl simply because you know very little about comas."The moment I said those words, the doctor and his wife gasped.The doctor's wife immediately leaned forward."Who gave you the audacity to speak to my husband like that?" she asked angrily.I did not even look at her.There was no reason to waste my time arguing with her.My eyes moved back to Mr. and Mrs. Kingston.I could see that they wer

LEONARD'S POVI looked at Ava, however, I knew exactly what I was doing.I slowly shook my head and let out a small scoff."Ava, you don't have to worry about me," I said calmly. "I am not going to lose anything."Ava looked at me with disbelief."Boss, you just agreed to give this man fifty percent of High-Tech Power if he succeeds," she reminded me. "How can you say you will not lose anything?"I smiled slightly before saying."Because if anyone is going to lose something today, it will be him."The doctor heard what I said and immediately turned his attention toward me.He gave a short laugh."Still confident, I see," he said.I looked at him."I am not confident because I want to impress you," I replied. "I am confident because I know what I am capable of."The doctor folded his arms across his chest and smiled."Then perhaps we should make the bet even more interesting."I raised an eyebrow and asked"What do you mean?"The doctor opened his mouth, but I spoke before he could con

LEONARD'S POVDr Smith and his wife remained standing as they continued discussing.His wife had begun searching for possible solutions, she was still holding her phone when she finally spoke again. She kept her voice low as she turned slightly away from the rest of the room, and the nervous expression on her face showed that she was becoming increasingly worried."I have searched through several results," she whispered, "but I cannot find anything that tells us exactly how to bring someone who has been in a coma for five years back to consciousness."Dr. Smith immediately turned toward her. His eyebrows came together, and the confidence that had previously been visible on his face was replaced by irritation."What do you mean you cannot find anything?" he asked in a restrained voice.His wife looked at him carefully before answering. She seemed to realize that her words were not what he wanted to hear."I mean exactly what I said," she replied quietly. "There is no simple answer."S

LEONARD'S POVDr. Smith stopped beside the girl's bed and slowly turned around, allowing his eyes to move across everyone in the room. He seemed determined to recover the authority he believed he had lost. His expression hardened as he raised one hand slightly."I want everyone to stop questioning my medical ability," he said firmly. His voice was controlled, but the irritation underneath it was obvious. "I am an experienced doctor. I have spent many years treating difficult medical cases, and I did not become a doctor yesterday."His eyes moved from Mr. Kingston to Mrs. Kingston before finally settling on me. He stared at me for several seconds, as though he wanted to make sure I understood that his words were directed at me as much as they were at everyone else."Medicine is not something that can always be rushed," he continued, his fingers tightening slightly as he lowered his hand. "Sometimes a doctor needs time to examine a patient properly, understand the condition, study the a
