Thea had difficulty speaking.Looking at Thea’s expression, Gladys knew something must have happened last night. Immediately, she ordered, “Spit it out.”Thea came clean.She told them everything that happened at dinner last night.However, after the Watsons and Xenoses appeared, Xara led her away. She did not know what happened after that.Everyone turned to look at James again after that.Was he telling the truth? Did he actually beat the Watsons and Xenoses into submission?Looking at how confused everyone was, James decided to make things easier for them. They would never believe him anyway.“Alright, here’s what happened. A person named Zane Dawn helped.”“Zane Dawn?”Everyone was confused. Who was he?“What?”Lex seemed to come to a realization. “Zane Dawn? Zane from the north, the one everyone calls the Mining King?”“Yes, yes, yes,” James said. “That’s the one.”Lex glanced at James. “Zane is very important in the north. The Dawns are very influential. Even the Fi

James had discarded his shirt. His body was full of silver needles. Some of them had blue droplets on them.“James, what’s going on?”James removed the needles on his chest and arms, smiling at Thea. “D-don’t worry. I’m fine.”Thea’s expression was stony. “Do you take me for a fool? Who were those people? What did they give you?”“I have no idea.”James looked serious.He did not know who they were.He did not know what they had given him either.He had spit most of it out and used the needles to draw the remains out, but a small amount had entered his bloodstream. He started to feel his body seizing up a little.“Really?” Thea did not believe him.“Darling, I really don’t know.”“T-then, how are you feeling? You don’t look so good. Should we go to the hospital?” Thea noticed James looking worse than usual. She was worried, so she went to him and helped him up.James waved his hand. “Don’t worry. I’ll lose my sense of smell and my movements might be restricted, that’s all.

Inside the hospital, James sat down.“Thea, take my shirt off.”“Okay.”Thea obeyed.“And my pants.”“What?”Thea was stunned, and she blushed. “Honey, what are you doing?”“Just do it.”“Alright then.”Thea removed James’ pants. He was only in his underwear.“Get the silver needles ready.”“Okay.”Thea quickly prepared the silver needles.The Callahans walked in, looking with confusion at the nearly-naked James.Tommy mocked him. “James, you piece of trash. What are you doing now?”James ignored Tommy.Soon, Thea returned with the silver needles. “Here are the silver needles, honey.”James asked, “Thea, do you remember the book I showed you on meridians and acupuncture points? Do you still remember how the points are distributed?”“No, not really.”“Can you please get the book?”Thea did not know what James was planning to do, but Eternality Hospital had plenty of books like that. Quickly, she tried to locate one of them.After that, she brought it to James.“Now

This was the first time in twenty years.“Trevor.”Lex leaned on his cane as he approached. He looked resigned. “We fought over our family assets all those years ago. It’s been so long, and we are both at the end of our lives. Could we let this go?”Trevor and his family looked at Lex.What was he trying to play at?“Hey, what’s the expression all about?” Tommy asked arrogantly. He pointed at Trevor and his family, shouting, “Didn’t you hear what my grandfather said?”“Tommy, shut your mouth,” Lex ordered.“Yes, grandfather.” Tommy did as he said.Lex looked at a dejected Trevor and sighed. “After all this, I’ve finally come to my senses. Why don’t we let bygones be bygones? We’re family. We don’t have to keep doing this.”As she heard Lex say that, Thea was overjoyed.Happily, she said, “Grandfather, I’m so happy you could let things go. Now we can live together in harmony as a family once more!”“What family?” Larry’s son Quinton said unhappily.When the Callahans were ri

“Yes, ma’am.”Scarlett said, “Set up a temporary department immediately. I need you to get people online to make appointments with Thea on the Doctor App. Pay each person who makes an appointment ten dollars. If they could make it to Medical Street, see Thea in person for a consultation and give her their vote, pay them a hundred dollars each.”“...”Quincy was stunned. She did not understand what Scarlett was trying to say.“Ma’am, what’s all this about?”Scarlett coughed awkwardly. “James wants to ensure Thea gets into the top 100 at the medical conference.”“Oh.”Quincy came to a realization. “I get it now.”Immediately, she put the plan into action.She was great at executing plans. Quickly, she set up a temporary department, recruiting a few hundred people from different departments in the company. All of them created their own chat group, each consisting of more than a thousand people.“Good news! Download the Doctor App now and search for Century Hospital. Select Dr. T
