C202: The Wrong Place
"No." Veyron smiled faintly and shook his head. "I should be the one apologizing. I kept you waiting for several hours.""It's nothing." Alejandro immediately waved both hands. A warm smile spread across his weathered face. "Being able to meet Doctor Blackthorne today is already my honor."Veyron nodded. His gaze quietly swept across Alejandro once again. Then he tilted his head thoughtfully."Mr. Ramirez, have you recently felt as though something heavy is constantly pressing against your chest?"Alejandro froze. Before he could answer, Veyron continued calmly. "You become short of breath after walking only a short distance. You cough frequently... and every now and then, you cough up blood.""And lately..." He paused briefly. "You've been feeling increasingly exhausted. Even after resting, you still lack strength."Every word landed like a hammer. Alejandro's eyes widened further and further. By the end, his breathing had practically stopped."Y-Yes..." He nodded repeatedly. "Everyt
C201: A Fraud
"Rafael..." Alejandro spoke between bouts of coughing, his stern gaze meeting the younger man's through the rearview mirror."Don't talk nonsense." His voice wasn't loud but it carried an authority that immediately silenced the car.Rafael frowned slightly. Clearly, he wasn't convinced. Alejandro Ramirez wasn't just any businessman. His empire stretched across luxury real estate, international shipping, private equity, and countless overseas investments.Within Highmont, very few people possessed wealth capable of rivaling Reginald Langford's. And wherever Alejandro went, people practically lined up to curry favor with him.Yet today, not only had this so-called Divine Physician failed to come out and welcome them, he had even kept them waiting. No matter how Rafael looked at it, it felt disrespectful.Still, seeing Alejandro's serious expression, he swallowed every complaint lingering in his throat."...Understood."Only after turning his face away did he mutter quietly under his bre
C200: A Friend Of Yours Is Mine Too
THUD!Naomi Rossi was thrown out of The Grand Oak like a sack of garbage. She crashed onto the pavement in an undignified heap.Her carefully styled hair had become a complete mess, resembling nothing more than a bird's nest. The expensive makeup she had painstakingly applied was smeared across her face, while her elegant evening gown was stained with dust.Gone was the refined businesswoman who had walked proudly into the restaurant earlier. What remained was an utterly humiliated woman."Veyron Blackthorne..." She gritted his name through clenched teeth, every syllable dripping with hatred.Never... Never in her entire life had she suffered such humiliation. She slowly climbed to her feet, dusted herself off, then immediately took out her phone. Without hesitation, she dialed a familiar number. The call connected on the very first ring."Honey..." Her voice instantly softened. She even sniffled pitifully, wiping away tears that didn't exist. "I was bullied by Veyron... You have to st

C199: I Decide Who Stays... Or Leaves
At that very moment, Naomi's arrogant voice rang out from the side. "Manager, don't beg him."She stepped forward gracefully, the corners of her lips lifting into a proud smile. Then she looked at the restaurant owner with unconcealed contempt. "With me here today, no one is firing either of you. I'll protect you."The manager, who had looked completely defeated moments earlier, suddenly felt as though he had been thrown a lifeline. His eyes lit up instantly."Really?" He hurried to his feet. "Thank you, Miss Rossi! Thank you so much!"Even the waiter looked overjoyed and repeatedly bowed. "Thank you, Miss Rossi!"Watching the two practically worship her, Naomi's vanity swelled even further. She folded her arms across her chest before looking at the restaurant owner."Do you know who I am?"The owner merely glanced at her. His expression remained indifferent. "I do.""Good." Naomi smiled smugly. "Since you know who I am, then you should also know that offending me won't end well for y
C198: Bear The Consequences
Veyron lowered his gaze as the security guards closed in from every direction. The faint smile on his lips gradually disappeared. His fingers rested lightly on the edge of the table then slowly curled.An invisible chill spread through the restaurant. The lively chatter died down almost instantly. Even those who knew nothing about martial arts inexplicably felt the temperature drop.Several diners instinctively rubbed their arms. "Why does it suddenly feel so cold?"No one noticed that a terrifying killing intent had already begun gathering around Veyron. His icy-green eyes narrowed.Just as his fingers were about to flick—"STOP!" The thunderous roar exploded throughout the restaurant.THUD!Every security guard froze where they stood. Not a single one dared take another step. The killing intent in Veyron's eyes quietly faded. His fingers relaxed as he slowly lifted his head.A trace of curiosity flashed across his face. Who had just unknowingly saved these people?"Boss?" The manage
