The next morning, Elijah decided that instead of Alice heading to work and taking Claire to school, the trio did something together to make up for the incident from yesterday.Apart from serving as a means to ensure there was no lingering trauma, it was also an avenue for more bonding between them.In any case, Alice and Claire were agreeable, and so, after preparations were made, they were off.Soon, they arrived at a shopping mall near a popular hotel.It was a large shopping complex under the management of a mega-corporation known as Denver Mall.Alice took Claire to the fashion apparel area the moment they stopped at the mall.Elijah wanted to use the restroom so he said, “Alice, take Claire with you and choose some clothes for both of you. I'm going to the restroom.”“Mn, sure.” Alice nodded and paid no attention to him.She took Claire to pick out some clothes and since they were early, they didn't bother to rush things. Alice chose two sets that matched so she could wear one w

Alice was slightly shocked; she had not expected Elijah to be able to get so much cash with just a phone call.Meanwhile, Dana was so embarrassed she could not utter a single word.If possible, she would have loved to dig a hole for her to hide in.She never expected that the man she deemed a poor miser would turn out to be so wealthy.“Since the amount is right, does that mean this bag belongs to me now?” Elijah asked with a smile.“Yes sir. This bag belongs to you now.” One of the staff said.Elijah nodded and grabbed the bag before handing it to Alice. “This bag is yours now, sweetheart. Go ahead and touch it or admire ur however you please.”Alice trembled as she accepted the bag.She looked at Elijah and said. “Elijah, I…”Elijah merely shot her a smile before turning to Dana. “I've bought the bag now, haven't I, pretty lady?”Dana could only nod in agreement, not knowing what else she could say.Seeing this, Elijah said. “Since I've bought it, this means that it no longer matter

On the way to the hospital, Jerry panted heavily as he bled out from his injury.However, despite his precarious state, the gunshot wound was the last thing on his mind as he said to Elijah. “Why didn't you arrest them, sir?... I'm sure you could have taken them down. Also, you have to inform the White Tiger King so he can arrest everyone involved in this conspiracy!”Alice became curious when she heard this, so she turned around and asked. “What's he talking about, Elijah?... Also, what happened back there?”Elijah said to Jerry. “Is it in your job description to actively seek death?... Is it until you pass away that you'll understand that you are not supposed to meddle in affairs you should steer clear of?”Jerry replied. “I know I shouldn't get involved in this, but you can't expect me to turn a blind eye to a conspiracy that could potentially destroy the entire city!”Elijah was left speechless by Jerry's conviction while Alice anxiously asked. “What's going on, Elijah?... What is

Elijah had more than enough to easily afford the fifty million dollars he'd just said.He knew very well how much pain people would be in after developing cancer, as well as how much pressure would be put on the family members of the patient.If he had been able to receive such financial help when his mother was ill, perhaps she would have survived.But it was impossible to turn back time.If his donation could help more patients with cancer, he would feel much more relieved and heartened. He was certain that his late mother would definitely support his decision too.After confirming that Elijah wasn't joking, Doctor Keagan was exhilarated.He immediately took Elijah to the director's office to let them discuss the matter personally.Fifty million dollars was no small amount!The elderly female director of the hospital was extremely excited as well once he heard the news.He grabbed Elijah's hand and praised him incessantly. They were doctors whose duties were to save lives and trea

Standing beside Denise, Elijah coldly remarked. “How despicable can a man be that instead of accepting rejection gracefully, you'd go as far as to threaten a girl with her mother's life!”Jamie was left stunned while Denise instinctively blurted out after she'd recognized him. “It's you!”“It's been some time since we last met.” Elijah greeted her with a warm smile. A simple scrutiny was enough to let Elijah know that Denise had been under a lot of stress since her escape from Gerald's home.Dark circles were under her eyes, and she had already begun to lose some weight, which was not looking good at all.Watching their interaction, Jamie narrowed his eyes and glared at Elijah like he would stare at an enemy, his gaze cold as he questioned in clear annoyance. “Denise, who is this person and why is he acting all friendly towards you?”Denise turned sullen as she replied back in a similar cadence. “What does that have to do with you?”Jamie glared at Elijah and then said to Denise. “Of
