“Mr. Smith, I don’t want to be enemies with the Smith family, but I’m willing to take this risk for Victoria’s sake. I’ll repeat myself. As long as she doesn’t want to marry, no one can force her!” William’s tone became assertive.

“Hmph! What an arrogant youngster!” Richard’s eyes turned cold. “I’ve tried to speak nicely to you for Victoria’s sake, but if you insist on being stubborn, don’t blame me for turning my back on you!”

“William! Don’t provoke Mr. Smith. It’ll bring you no good." Tanya desperately tried to hint at William.

“Mr. Smith, you’re the one being stubborn, not me.” William remained undaunted.

“Fine! Very well!” Upon hearing that, Richard smirked. “Young man, you surely are fearless! I’ll give you three days. If you’re willing to leave this city within three days, I won’t hold it against you. But if you persist in going your way, you’ll have to bear the consequences!”

After saying that, he turned and left.

“Wait!” William suddenly called out.

“What? Did you change your

  • Enemy amongst us

    Upon hearing that the man had been poisoned, Victoria began to panic, after all, this was a gathering organized by the Smith family.For someone to be poisoned, especially one of the guests, would end up damaging the reputation of her family.As much as she was being forced into annoying situations by her family, Victoria couldn't accept them being humiliated by external parties.To that end, she immediately called for the waiters to drag the man out of the public eye before it caused too much of a commotion among those present.Meanwhile, William inspected the man thoroughly before remarking.“It seems to be the wine he drank.” “Does that mean the wine served to the guests is poisoned?”“If I were to guess, no, this amount of poison is too potent to be used indiscriminately.”“Which means they were targeting a particular individual; he just turned out to be the one to take the poisoned chalice,” Victoria remarked, with William nodding in agreement.“You might want to get your men to

  • An odd interaction

    Victoria’s tone turned sharp. “Knowing Trevor Storm, he can’t bear it if anything is tainted. Tomorrow, when they send the gifts over, I’ll tell him that I’m already yours. With his pride, there’s no way he’ll accept that. He might even annul our engagement on the spot!”“Are you sure it’ll work?” William asked, unsure.“It’s worth a shot.” Victoria grinned mischievously. “No matter what, I’ll be kicking up a fuss tomorrow. That way, the Storm family would never accept a daughter-in-law like me!”Pursing his lips, William could only hope that their plan was successful.With that, they discussed other matters until it was quite late into the evening.William did not leave right after meeting Victoria.Instead, he stayed in the Smith estate under the pretense of treating Richard’s illness.The next morning, the Smiths‘ annual family gathering had officially begun.Countless people began pouring into the estate, luxury cars casually clustering the plaza.Besides those from the Smith fami

  • Only way forward

    Before leaving the room, William halted and turned his head around. “Mr. Smith, the poison isn’t a simple issue. The person who poisoned you probably has more in store. Be careful of those around you.”“Got it.” Richard nodded.He has always lived in seclusion, so it wasn’t easy to poison him.It was also worth noting that tomorrow was the annual family gathering.As the head of the family, things would be thrown into chaos should others find out that he had fallen ill.Therefore, it was hard not to have suspicions when the timing at which things were happening was so precarious.“Charlotte, who do you think poisoned me?” Richard asked all of a sudden.“I can’t think of anyone capable of such vicious poisoning and holds a grudge against our family,” Charlotte responded in a serious tone.“I see.” Richard sighed again. Suddenly, he thought of something and asked, “What do you think of William?”“He’s a genius who’s skilled in both medicine and martial arts. He might be the best among h

  • A stubborn man

    After throwing up the mouthful of dark blood, Richard’s complexion had returned to normal, and his breathing finally evened out, seeming to be fine now.“You’ll never understand it,” William stated indifferently.Stefan blushed in embarrassment, not expecting the ordinary doctor he mocked to be so skilled.Not long after he spat out the dark blood, Richard came around. Although his body was weak, it was a miracle that he’d made it.As for Stefan, when he saw Richard regain consciousness, he admitted defeat and apologized to William sincerely.William decided to let the man be.After all, Stefan may be a proud man, but he sincerely respected those who were stronger than him.The rest of the Smith family also resumed their activities after making sure that Richard was fine. “How are you feeling, sir? Are you in pain anywhere?” Tanya walked over to the bed, holding a glass of warm water.“I’m fine. I just feel slightly bloated.” Richard took two sips.“Duh. Look at the blood you threw u

  • A frightening sight

    “Afraid?” William shook his head. “Well, I am slightly afraid that you might cry.”“You agree, then?” Stefan regarded William disdainfully with his arms folded.“Of course.” William nodded. “Since you look so confident. I’m curious to see how good you are. However, I hope you don’t regret your promise later.”“Good. I’ll show you how lacking your traditional medicine is compared to modern medicine!” Stefan smirked smugly.He pulled a vial from his case and explained. “See this? This is the newest antidote my team developed. Within thirty minutes, the patient will wake up again.”“Good luck.” William’s response was simple.“Watch closely!” Stefan exclaimed before slowly injecting the green drug into Richard’s body.After ten minutes, the unconscious man began to react.“It’s working! It’s working!” Charlotte was over the moon to see the changes.As expected of a leading medical professor from abroad, the effects of such a small action were amazing.“Do you see this, Belmont? This is Dr

  • A professor at Pearson

    William approached the bed and took Richard’s pulse before checking his eyes and mouth.He was now sure that Richard had been poisoned by incredibly potent poison.“William, how’s he? Can you treat him?” Tanya asked tentatively.“It’s a little tricky, but I can try,” William answered after thinking about it.“Try?” Charlotte frowned. “This is his life we’re talking about, and you’re telling me you’ll try? Are you joking?”“Mrs. Smith, this isn’t any regular poison. We’ll have to take a risk if we want to save him.” William explained.With how serious Richard’s condition was, it’d be a miracle if they could even save his life.“That’s not what I want to hear! I want my husband to recover completely!” Charlotte hissed.“She’s right. If you can’t do it, let us treat him.”Suddenly, a group of people entered the room. They were led by a chubby, middle-aged man, followed by a voluptuous woman wearing a dress. “What are you guys doing here, Dennis?” Charlotte was surprised.The Smith famil
