Chapter 1721
Katie exclaimed, "Wow! Felix, you bought so much seafood!" At home, Katie stared at the groceries Felix carried through the door. Though she was practically drooling at the sight, she shook her head disapprovingly and said, "You shouldn't waste money like this! We got some savings from selling the shop, but you'll need every penny to learn at Banilor Clinic. "Plus, the doctor said seafood's off-limits for me." Felix smiled. "Don't worry about it. I know what I'm doing. I saved Tasha Sharpe's daughter today, and she gave me a million dollars as thanks. What's wrong with enjoying a little seafood?" When Katie heard that he had been rewarded with a million dollars, she widened with shock. She'd never seen that kind of money in her life. Her mouth watered again before she remembered her restrictions, making her cheeks puff out in frustration. "You're actually allowed to eat this. I asked Mr. Goff about it. Those other doctors only restricted your diet because they wanted to play
Chapter 1720
Tasha said, "You saved Claire's life, so let me reward you properly." She motioned with her right hand, and a bodyguard appeared with a checkbook ready. "Just tell me how much you want." Jealousy rippled through the room. Everyone knew Tasha was generous with her money, especially when family was involved. Each of them imagined themselves as the hero of the moment, picturing the money that might have been theirs. Clarence suffered the most. He was clenching his fists hard. When he thought about how he had arranged Felix's transfer himself, all he wanted to do now was to slap himself. Felix began, "Mrs. Sharpe, I couldn't possibly accept—" Tasha pretended to shoot him an angry look, already scribbling on the check. "I'll give you one million dollars. And don't complain it's not enough. Any more might turn your head, and we wouldn't want that." Sudden wealth could change people in unthinkable ways—she wasn't wrong about that. For someone with Tasha's fortune, a million dollar
Chapter 1719
Everyone present was terrified; even the two bodyguards were at a loss for what to do. If anything happened to Claire, Tasha would absolutely lose her mind. Felix had already run over to Claire. He had been watching her while imagining that if Nerissa had given birth to a girl, she would probably be about this age by now. Felix rushed behind Claire, wrapped his arms around her from behind, and suddenly began to apply pressure. Anyone from Earth would recognize this action immediately—he was doing the Heimlich maneuver. The reason was simple. Claire had been eating candy, and the current situation was clearly caused by a piece stuck in her throat. Meanwhile, Tasha and Clarence rushed over. When he saw Felix making such strange movements, cold sweat broke out all over his body. "Felix! What are you doing? Let go now!" he demanded.Almost as Clarence was speaking, Felix applied pressure a second time. In the next moment, they saw Claire spit out a piece of candy that fell to th
Chapter 1718
When Clarence said that they had all started out by working in the main hall, Felix knew too well that he was just trying to put him in his place. Felix could only smile and thank him—complaining wasn't an option. But Clarence really had some nerve—even though Pedro had taken notice of the situation, he still dared to push Felix down like this. As soon as he returned to the pharmacy, Roland said mockingly, "Felix, I heard you got a promotion! You're going to greet patients in the main hall tomorrow, right? Congratulations!" Felix didn't really care. "You've got some good sources." Roland said arrogantly, "Of course! Did you think everyone's like you, trying to work at Banilor Clinic without connections as a clueless rookie? Felix, being too bold will just make people hate you, and then you'll quit on your own." …When Felix got home that evening, Katie kept asking about his day. Felix naturally didn't mention any of his troubles—after all, Katie's happiness was important for
Chapter 1717
Felix knew that this was his chance to prove his worth, so he immediately followed Pauline. The truth was, he had no clue what he should be doing right now. His first priority was getting Katie healed; then he'd figure out the rest. The test Kirk had given him and the so-called "choice" he had to make made no sense. He could not figure out when or how this would all end. Upon reaching a deserted part of the courtyard, Pauline stopped and pulled Felix close, whispering, "Mr. Goff does want to see you, but I suspect the person you'll meet probably won't be him." Felix was puzzled. "Ms. Cormick, I don't quite understand what you mean." After checking around one more time, Pauline leaned in and lowered her voice even more. She said, "Sonia is related to Clarence Harrell, Mr. Goff's second apprentice—so good luck with that. This is all I can do to help you. As for whether he'll blame you for his cousin getting fired, I have no idea." Pauline felt bad for Felix, so she told hi
Chapter 1716
Pauline's sudden change of tone meant one thing—Sonia likely had connections, and she didn't want to offend her. Since Roland had conveniently broken the ice, Pauline decided to seize the chance and play along. If Felix backed down and admitted his mistake now, Pauline would check the pot privately. Even if there were an issue, she absolutely wouldn't fire Sonia. She would just quietly caution Sonia afterward. But after that, Felix would likely have a hard time at the clinic. Unfortunately for them, if Felix had been some ordinary young man wanting to learn medicine, he would have been intimidated into backing down. "Fine. Please examine it then. If my judgment is wrong, I'll leave immediately!" Felix proclaimed confidently.Sonia's expression darkened. She hadn't expected someone who'd barely been there a month to stand against her even after giving him a way out. Truthfully, she wasn't entirely confident herself. She had drunk too much the night before, so her concentratio
Chapter 1715
As the pharmacy supervisor, Pauline wouldn't have held that position without genuine skill. Even Rodney had no right to decide who filled critical roles—Pedro personally interviewed candidates for those positions. After all, the slightest error in these matters could be fatal. So of course Pauline understood exactly what it meant for Stardust Sprout and Azuremist Thistle to be brewed together. Just as she was about to stand up, something struck her, and she turned to Felix. She asked, "Can you actually identify the smell of these two herbs brewing together?" Felix nodded. At this point, he couldn't afford to hide his abilities, though he also couldn't reveal everything. "I studied herbs with a traditional medicine practitioner before. The smell seems familiar, and I know these two herbs together create a deadly poison. After thinking it through, I felt I should bring it to your attention." Given what he had said, Pauline couldn't brush it off. She went straight to the counter
Chapter 1714
After Rodney was done talking, he turned to Felix. "This is the pharmacy supervisor, Pauline Cormick. You'll be working under her from now on. Work hard and don't let me down." Felix hurriedly greeted Pauline. He had to admit that Rodney was actually quite decent. After taking the money, those few extra words he spoke might help Felix receive a bit more care. At least, that was what he thought. But after Pauline saw Rodney off warmly, she immediately pulled a long face and assigned Felix to a young man. "Listen well. In my department, make three mistakes and you're fired. Learn properly." The young man was Manuel Shaffer. He seemed honest and straightforward. He simply led Felix to a room connected to the pharmacy that was filled with various medicinal herbs. "Felix, newcomers start by sorting herbs here. Don't dare try dispensing medicine yet, or you'll probably be fired within days." Felix nodded. "Thanks for the advice." Manuel said with a smile, "All good. It's so hard
Chapter 1713
Benny led Felix to a room. Nobody was in there. Benny then said, "Wait here a moment. The manager will be here soon. Since I took your money, I'll definitely deliver. The manager of Banilor Clinic is Rodney Madden, so feel free to ask around if you don't believe me. "Unless the elder, Mr. Pedro Goff, speaks up, all matters are basically decided by Mr. Madden." Felix nodded with a smile. He had naturally done his research before coming. The manager was indeed Rodney Madden, though his reputation was mediocre. He only became the manager of Banilor Clinic because he had worked under Pedro for the longest time. After a while, Rodney entered. He appeared to be in his 50s, with a shifty look about him. Benny said, "Mr. Madden, this man is a distant relative of mine. He wants to work at Banilor Clinic. Would you take a look at his application?" Rodney gave a cold laugh but said nothing as he sat down in his chair. Then, he waved his hand dismissively. "Take him away. Banilor Cli
