"We've arrived." As soon as they got there, Jasmine let out a sigh of relief. For some reason, being in the car with Ethan had given her an odd, unsettling feeling.

But once they stepped out, everything felt normal again. Because once she was out of the car, she was the president of Elite Group-Jasmine Thompson, President Beatrice.

Her commanding presence returned. Ethan Blackwood followed behind her, carrying some items. In the past, he had a lackluster demeanor that made him seem weak, but now he exuded a different kind of confidence. Jasmine noticed the change!

"Could it be that he feels more confident now that he can speak up?" she thought to herself. But there was no time to dwell on that; they had arrived at the cafe.

Upon entering, they spotted a middle-aged man sitting at one of the tables. He was a rather overweight man dressed in luxurious clothing, complete with sunglasses, and flanked by two burly bodyguards-those types that looked intimidating just by standing there.

    Sometimes, it's just fate! Since this guy wouldn't listen to reason, Ethan Blackwood decided not to insist any further. Before long, they arrived at the restaurant. Shine Restaurant. It was clearly a high-end establishment, located right in the commercial center, with lavish decor and an elegant atmosphere. There was even a hostess at the entrance to greet guests. Ethan rode up on his little bike, and as he parked it to the side, the hostess naturally took notice. He walked toward the entrance. "Sir, I think you might be in the wrong place," the hostess said politely. "I'm not in the wrong place. This is Shine Restaurant," Ethan replied, glancing around to confirm he was indeed at the right spot. However, he was soon blocked by two security guards, called over by the hostess. She took a look at Ethan, especially at his worn-out jeans that were faded from washing, and a hint of mockery flashed in her eyes. Crossing her arms, she said, "Sir, we don't welcome people dressed

    After walking a short distance, Ethan Blackwood turned back and asked, "Why haven't you left yet?" The person behind him was none other than Holland Brigg's. Brigg's face was covered in blood, and his left arm hung limply, held up by his other hand. He looked quite terrifying, causing passersby to jump in shock as he walked by. "What's going on here?" "Bro... Ethan, I'm your little brother, aren't I supposed to stick with you?" Brigg's said with a goofy grin. "Ethan, I know I can be reckless sometimes, but I understand the rules. You saved my master, and I said l'd be your little brother, so I'm definitely your little brother now. Whatever you say goes." Brigg's continued, his stubborn nature shining through. Once he had accepted Ethan as his big brother, there was no turning back. "Do you do everything I say?" "Absolutely." "Then go back and let those three old guys check your injuries. Their skills are better than most doctors in Panama City." Ethan gestured. "Alri

    The Main Thirteen Needles-this technique was buried deep in their memories. Among them, there were practitioners of both traditional medicine and Western medicine, as well as those who were skilled in both. However, when they heard about the Main Thirteen Needles, they were all taken aback. This was a technique recorded in ancient texts that had long been lost to time. It was something their master's master had once spoken of. Once the needles were inserted, if one looked closely, they could vaguely see the character "Main" emerging. The Main needles seemed to work as one, guiding the body and blood to flow along this character, beginning to revive. The blood started to surge. Suddenly, Adrian Jackson spat out a mouthful of blood black blood, pure black, clearly indicating stagnant blood. Afterward, Adrian's expression relaxed. He no longer felt the discomfort he had before. "This... this is how the stagnant blood was forced Out!" The three elderly men stood frozen in p

    "What!" Holland Brigg's, who was on the ground nursing his hand with a look of despair and anger, suddenly heard those words. His expression changed dramatically as he struggled to get up and looked at Ethan Blackwood. "Are you serious?"Ethan Blackwood didn't want to explain himself. In the next moment, Briggs realized that it was likely true. This guy had the ability to heal his master. After all, Liam had been cured by him. If he could heal his master, then he could save him. But instead, he was here causing trouble. "Mr. Ethan, I, Holland Brigg's, was wrong this time. Please, Mr. Ethan, don't hold it against me. Just punish me; my actions have nothing to do with my master. Do whatever you want with me. Please, you have to save my master." With a thud, Brigg's dropped to his knees in front of Ethan, bowing his head in apology. Bang! Bang! Bang! The ground shook with the sound of Briggs forehead hitting the floor, a visible blood mark appearing on his skin. Ethan B

    What! The Moore family members were taken aback. "How dare he, Briggs!" Liam slammed his hand on the table in frustration. Uncle Adrian, also known as Adrian Jackson, who was still nursing his serious injuries nearby, looked equally confused. Why was his disciple here? Just then, a furious voice rang out from the doorway: "Liam Moore, you old fool! I heard my master was seriously injured, and yet you had the audacity to invite that injured person into the Moore family and even host a banquet for him!" With each word filled with anger, a group of men dressed in white martial arts uniforms entered, led by a middle-aged man brimming with vitality. His fists looked incredibly powerful, capable of easly taking down a professional security guard with just a few strikes. Surrounding him were a dozen or so men, clearly his disciples, who followed him in. Bang! After kicking a security guard aside, Briggs Holland turned to Liam and said, "Liam Moore." "What do you mean, Ho

    "I have feelings for you, but even though we've been living together for four years, it's really just the beginning, isn't it? I want to give you a chance. I think, over time, I will truly come to like you, but not right now." "This angel heart necklace... I think I should keep it for now. I don't want you giving it to another woman. If one day I really do fall for you, then l'll wear this necklace and show up in front of you. How does that sound Jasmine peeked out, her eyes sparkling with a hint of hope as she asked. "Sounds good," Ethan nodded, though a pang of pain shot through his heart. He understood the reason behind her hesitation. Jasmine had lost her father in a car accident during college, making her the eldest in her family. She had always acted maturely. She had focused on her business studies and had never been close to any other boys. Perhaps he was the first. Because of that, she was inexperienced in this area, and at that moment, the powerful CEO felt like a li
