Chapter 31: The Fake CorpseThe moment the man opened his eyes, he completely lost control.“LET ME GO!” he screamed frantically while struggling so hard against the officers restraining him that the entire stretcher shook violently beneath him. “DON’T KILL ME! I’M ALIVE! I’M ALIVE!”For a brief moment, the entire clinic remained frozen like everyone’s brains had stopped functioning together.Then suddenly, a crazy chaos exploded.“GHOST!”One of the nurses screamed so loudly her voice nearly cracked while stumbling backward into another staff member. Several people in the crowd outside panicked too after seeing the “corpse” suddenly sit up screaming like someone straight out of a horror movie.“Holy shit!”“The dead came back!”“Run!”Some people even turned and tried to leave immediately while others pushed forward instead, desperate to see what was happening.The atmosphere became completely chaotic.Meanwhile the police officers reacted almost instantly once they realized the man

Chapter 33: The Calm BastardThe moment Zora introduced Cassian as the new head of the clinic, the doctors froze completely.Several of them even looked at each other instinctively, almost wondering if they had heard wrongly.“The… new head?”One of the older doctors repeated it slowly while staring at Cassian with widened eyes.Honestly, ever since the fake corpse incident ended, most of them had already begun thinking about how to keep Cassian connected to the clinic somehow. A talent like this was simply too terrifying to let go. Just the medical understanding he casually displayed tonight alone was enough to make countless hospitals fight over him.And that wasn’t even mentioning the way he handled pressure.The man practically solved a massive setup while surrounded by police officers, frightened staff, an angry crowd and a “dead” body… yet throughout everything, he looked calmer than people taking afternoon walks.At first they thought he was simply bold and now they weren’t so

Chapter 35: The Returning MercenaryMeanwhile, after leaving Zora’s company building, Cassian drove calmly across the city toward the company where Asher was already waiting for him.The morning traffic was heavier now compared to earlier, but Cassian still drove lazily with one hand on the steering wheel like someone completely disconnected from the rush of the world around him. Expensive cars overtook each other aggressively while businessmen hurried along sidewalks carrying briefcases and coffee cups like their lives depended on punctuality.Cassian looked at all of it and clicked his tongue softly.“Modern people really suffer voluntarily,” he muttered to himself. “Waking up early just to stress themselves into early graves.”Soon enough, he arrived at the towering company building.The employees downstairs immediately greeted him respectfully the moment they saw him walk in, though most of them still secretly looked at him curiously. After all, the chairman himself had personall

Chapter 37: The Arrogant ChallengerBy the time Cassian arrived at the clinic, the atmosphere there had completely changed compared to the previous day.Earlier, the building was drowning in panic and chaos because of the fake corpse incident. But today the entire place felt alive again.Patients had already started returning after hearing the truth behind yesterday’s incident while the staff themselves looked far more energetic now. Some even greeted Cassian excitedly the moment they saw him walk through the entrance.“Doctor Cassian!”“You’re finally here!”“We’ve been waiting!”Cassian looked at the excited doctors and sighed softly.“You people are greeting me like I’m some legendary treasure,” he muttered lazily while walking inside.One of the younger doctors laughed awkwardly.“In our eyes, you almost are.”Cassian shook his head helplessly.“Your standards are low.”Despite saying that, he still followed them deeper into the clinic while the three doctors assigned around him l

Chapter 39: No Stakes, No InterestCassian stared at Jude Gale quietly for a few seconds after hearing the challenge.Then he simply shook his head.“Not interested,” he replied lazily and the entire clinic froze slightly.Even the patients looked surprised because honestly, most people expected some dramatic acceptance immediately.Meanwhile Jude’s expression darkened.“What?”Cassian leaned casually against the counter nearby and looked at him with complete boredom.“I said I’m not interested in your nonsense,” he repeated calmly. “You barged into my clinic making noise like an abandoned ex-girlfriend demanding attention and now you want me to compete with you publicly. Sounds exhausting.”Several nurses instantly lowered their heads trying hard not to laugh.Jude’s face twitched violently.“You...!”But before he could explode properly, Cassian already continued speaking lazily,“Besides, I’m busy. Sick people are waiting. I don’t have time to entertain every emotionally damaged cl
