Chapter 001
Four years. That's how long Caelan Voss spent behind bars for something that was never his fault. He wasn't the one who was drunk that night. He wasn't the one behind the wheel. But when Serena stood in front of him, trembling, and said, "Please, Cael, my career will be over if I go to prison," Caelan handed himself over without a second thought.He gave up four years of his life and his career as a doctor so that Serena Hale's name would stay clean. So that not a single scandal would touch the career of one of the country's top actresses and singers.And today, he came home.But there was no embrace. No tears of relief. Just a white envelope, slid toward him with cold hands, the same hands he had once held at their wedding altar."What is this?" Caelan asked."Just read it."Serena stood in the middle of the living room in a red dress she had never bought to welcome her husband. Her black hair was tied back beautifully. Her face was flawless. But her expression was cold as marble.Ca

Caelan stopped at the end of the road, his back to a house that no longer belonged to him in any sense of the word.For four years he had believed that there were people waiting for him. That the sacrifice hadn't been for nothing. That when he came back, at least someone would still consider him family.Turns out there was no one.Serena had thrown him away like scrap paper. The Hale family had humiliated him. Preston, the younger brother who used to call his name with laughter, now looked at him like garbage.His hands clenched tight until his knuckles went white.Fine.It wasn't their destruction he would demand. Not some cheap revenge that would satisfy him for a moment. He would rise. Far beyond their reach, until they were on their knees, regretting every insult they had thrown at Caelan Voss.He swore it. There would come a day when they would beg at his feet to take them back.Caelan looked down, his eyes settling on the ring on his finger. Old silver with the carving of a coil

Aldric didn't need to think twice. If he could make the Ashford family owe him, his life would change forever.He brushed Caelan aside without a second glance and stepped forward with the professional smile he had spent years perfecting."Mr. Dorian." His voice was warm, full of authority. "I'm Aldric Shen, the top cardiac specialist at Aurelian. Please calm down. Tell me your father's condition. What happened?"Dorian drew a ragged breath. "My father collapsed suddenly. His chest pain was severe, then he lost consciousness. He had been complaining about tightness since morning, but he refused to be examined. He said it was just fatigue."Aldric nodded slowly, his face serious and attentive. His eyes briefly swept over Victor on the stretcher. Grayish skin, lips slightly blue, breathing short and irregular.He already had his diagnosis."Acute myocardial infarction," said Aldric in a confident tone. "Most likely a coronary artery blockage. We need to get him to the catheterization roo

Fifteen minutes, right on time.The man stepped out of the elevator at an easy, unhurried pace. He was somewhere in his forties, hair slightly graying at the temples, his face warm with laugh lines at the corners of his eyes. Not the face of a bureaucrat. More like someone who genuinely enjoyed his work.His eyes found Caelan in the waiting chairs right away.He walked over and extended his hand with a smile that wasn't forced."Good to see you again, Caelan. I didn't know you were out. These past few days must have been rough."Caelan stood and shook his hand. His smile was small but genuine. "Good to see you too, Emric. Not as bad as you'd think. Honestly, it wasn't bad in there."Emric Vane. Head of HR at Aurelian Hospital Velmont for the past ten years. The only person in this building who had once fought for Caelan's name harder than anyone else.Emric let out a short laugh and shook his head. "You never change. Always carrying that positive energy no matter what." He released th

Less than ten minutes later, the nurse was back.A sterile tray was set down at the side of the table. Five acupuncture needles gleamed under the operating lights. Beside them, three materials were laid out neatly, a dark red vial of Danshen extract, dense yellow Huanglian powder, and a cup of Maidong infusion still releasing faint wisps of steam.Caelan checked each one carefully. He held every needle up to the light, making sure there wasn't even the smallest defect. He uncapped the Danshen vial and briefly inhaled its scent. He touched the texture of the Huanglian powder with his gloved fingertip."Perfect." He set everything back down gently. "We begin."On the table, Victor Ashford lay like a candle that had almost burned out. His face was pale yellow, his lips grayish, his eyes shut tight with eyelids that looked too heavy to lift. Every breath he drew was short and irregular, broken by gaps that stretched long enough that anyone listening would find themselves holding their own

Caelan looked at Dorian as his thoughts settled. The Ashford family was one of the most influential families in Velmont. Surely they could help him."Just one thing," Caelan said finally. "Help me get my medical license back and a position as a doctor at Aurelian. Can the Ashford family do that?"Dorian blinked. It was clear he hadn't expected that to be the request.Then he nodded firmly. "That's all?" A small, respectful smile formed on his lips. "That's easy, Doctor. I'll use every resource my family has to make sure the process goes smoothly. And as an additional gesture of gratitude, I'll also be making a major investment in Aurelian.""Thank you," said Caelan simply.Emric, who had been standing near the door, had already stepped forward before Caelan could even turn around. His hand was outstretched, his face wearing a smile far more relieved than he himself probably realized."Welcome back to Aurelian Hospital Velmont, Caelan."With the Ashford family's backing, Caelan's retur

Back at Aurelian Hospital Velmont, Caelan was already heading toward the lobby exit when a voice stopped him."Wait, Doctor."He turned and found Dorian walking quickly toward him, like someone afraid of missing something."Is there something else you need?" Caelan asked.Dorian stopped in front of him and caught his breath for a moment. "How should I address you, Doctor?""Caelan Voss."Dorian nodded, then his hand moved to the pocket of his jacket. He pulled out two pitch-black cards, both gleaming under the hallway lights with a logo that was embossed, not printed. Clearly, neither of them was an ordinary card. Even the look of them said as much."Doctor Voss." Dorian offered both with both hands. "I know you didn't ask for this, but please consider it a personal thank you from me. The first card holds a balance of a hundred million dollars, available for you to use whenever you need it. The second is access to the Presidential Suite at The Grandeur, a hotel owned by the Ashford fa

Layla Sinclair was leaning back in her chair when the phone on her desk rang.She was in her early thirties, but her face looked younger than that. Her black hair was cut short to the jaw, neat without looking stiff. Her eyes were dark with sharp corners, her nose straight, her lips looking firm even without lipstick. Her figure was slim with curves that her gray blazer couldn't fully hide. The kind of beauty that didn't need much effort but still made people look twice.She had just finished the last of her monthly reports and was savoring that rare moment of quiet when the ringing broke it."Can't they give me even a few minutes of peace?"She picked up the receiver with mild reluctance. "Layla Sinclair, Operations Manager at The Grandeur."The receptionist's voice on the other end sounded off. Slightly shaky."Sorry to disturb you, Ms. Layla. There's a situation at the main entrance. A man who looks... rough is trying to force his way in. He even injured one of our security guards.

A few minutes earlier.The moment Caelan left Aurelian, Dorian reached for his phone.He called one of his staff with a brief instruction. "Follow Doctor Voss. Let me know where he goes."No bad intentions. Dorian simply didn't want to lose track of that remarkable doctor.Caelan had asked for his medical license to be restored, which meant he wanted his job back. But if Caelan suddenly disappeared for some reason before his father had fully recovered, Dorian wouldn't know where to look for him.Less than ten minutes later, a message came in."Doctor Voss is heading to The Grandeur, Young Master."Dorian moved immediately. He had an obligation to welcome this special guest at his family's own hotel. Caelan Voss wasn't an ordinary guest. He had to make sure the best possible service was given from the very first step.He ordered his driver to push the car.But when he stepped out in front of The Grandeur, what he saw wasn't a warm welcome.Four of his guards had surrounded Caelan with

"Are you sure, Doctor Voss?" Dorian looked at him. "They treated you terribly. They honestly deserve to die for it."Caelan was taken aback. They deserve to die? You've lost your mind.He answered quickly, "There's no need to go that far. Just show me to my room. I'd like to rest."Dorian nodded, then turned to the four guards still on their knees. "Clean up this mess and take care of him." His chin pointed toward the guard lying in the broken planter. "Layla, come with us.""Yes, Young Master."The three of them walked into the lobby. Dorian walked beside Caelan, and after a few seconds of silence, he spoke in a tone far quieter than before."Doctor Voss, I apologize for all of this." His words came out genuinely, without any formality. "You saved my father's life, and the first thing you received here was that kind of treatment. I'm truly embarrassed." He paused for a moment. "I just hope this doesn't change your mind."Caelan glanced at him. "I'm not changing my mind. I'll treat yo
