Following Director Bill's outstretched finger to see the so-called troublemaker, Chairman Grey is rather shocked to discover that he is just a young man in his twenties, lacking any extraordinary physical characteristics like bulging muscles and all that. When Director Bill told him about someone who killed twenty-five of his guards and incapacitated the rest, he had expected a much more formidable figure, someone at least on par with the two figures behind him.The stark contrast between his initial expectations and the reality before him leaves him wondering just how remarkably powerful a young man in his twenties must be to achieve such a feat."And wait," his body suddenly tenses up as he keenly takes in Jordan's appearance, an ominous premonition rising in his heart. The young man has his back turned, preventing him from seeing his face, but there's something about that posture that he feels he's encountered before. The posture is just incredibly familiar."Could he really be t
BOOM!The unexpected sight of Chairman Grey kneeling and bowing to Jordan leaves the onlookers in absolute shock, their mouths agape and their eyes as wide as saucers. Who is Chairman Grey?The esteemed CEO of RoyalView Medical Spa, a figure who commands respect and holds immense power. It is safe to say that he is a figure who people like them can only bow to and dream of cozying up to. But now, this formidable figure is kneeling and showing deference to a young man in his twenties. And not just any young man, but Jordan! Jordan freaking Callahan!If it were Director Bill kneeling and bowing, they might rationalize it, saying, "Well, he's still a director." But this is Chairman Grey!It is simply unfathomable.Even though they are staring at the scene with their own eyes, they still can't believe it.This is because, apart from Chairman Grey's formidable identity, Jordan had wreaked havoc in his hospital and as such, they expected him to be seeking revenge or taking a more confront
Facing Jordan's cold gaze, Director Bill involuntarily shudders and steps back. But realizing he is afraid of a mere punk when his boss is here, he instantly regrets his actions and hollers, "Punk, don't think you are anything because Chairman Grey knelt and bowed to you! I'm sure that must have been a mistake! You are the one dying!"In Director Bill's mind, Jordan is merely Isabella Caden's ex-husband, not some big shot, and as such, his boss must have mistaken him for someone else!"Chairman Grey," he implores anxiously. "I know you hardly make mistakes, but I'm certain you've made one this time."That punk is definitely not who you think he is. In any case, quickly order your underlings to kill him before he gets up to any more nonsense! I can't die! I really can't! Please!" At the end of his statement, he begins pleading, his desperation evident.Chairman Grey frowns. He might be old, but he can still see clearly, so how can it be that he has mistaken Jordan's identity?"You old
"Chairman Grey, my friend has sustained significant injuries to her face. Kindly arrange for your best doctors to attend to her," having killed Director Bill and exerted his revenge, Jordan doesn't idle around as he glances at Chairman Grey and says, his tone seemingly indifferent as if he had not just mercilessly taken a life.Without waiting for the old man's response, he calmly walks up to Natasha, who appears to have slept through the entire ordeal and is still in a peaceful slumber, and gently lifts her into his arms, walking into the ward a few steps away.As Chairman Grey watches Jordan's departing figure, he is overwhelmed with a deep sense of chagrin. Jordan had shown him no face at all, ruthlessly taking the life of his director right before his very eyes, and yet he doesn't seem to be the least bit perturbed by his actions. He even had the guts to request the assistance of the hospital's best doctors for his injured friend. How can any man be so callous and indifferent?He
In the ward...Jordan sits calmly before Natasha, his hand tightly entwined as he looks down at her; at her battered face. At this moment, he is so overwhelmed with guilt as he believes all this happened because of him.He had been too negligent that he didn't consider the lengths to which someone might go for love.If only he paid more attention to her safety, who would have dared kidnap her, let alone inflict these injuries on her?"My Lord," the door to the ward suddenly swings open, and Chairman Grey waltzes in. "I've arranged for three of our best doctors; they'll be here any minute," he announces with a respectful bow."Mmm," Jordan merely hums, not sparing him a glance."Chairman Grey, you called for us," soon enough, just as Chairman Grey stated, two middle-aged doctors suddenly walk into the ward, Doctor Sean surprisingly missing from their midst."Yes, I did," Chairman Grey responds as he turns his attention to them, his brow furrowing as he notices one person is missing from
Starwood Apparels, Opulence Heights...Anderson sits leisurely in his office with his legs crossed and a glass of wine in his left hand as he gazes at the newspaper in his right.At intervals, his gaze flickers toward the door, as if he expects someone to walk through it. Indeed, he does. Earlier today, he had his secretary send someone to keep tabs on Jordan and personally informed him about everything he should know. He then instructed him to report back to him once he had gathered enough information.Several hours have passed, and the young man is not yet back. Although he doesn't doubt the young man's capabilities, as he is an expert, he is starting to feel bothered. Could something have happened to him?CRACK!Suddenly, a loud noise rings out as something cracks against the window. Anderson, snapping out of his thoughts, instantly glances over to see what might have made such a noise, but there is nothing there. "Hmm," he raises a brow, puzzled."Over here, Sir Anderson," a chi
It's early evening...Jordan walks out of RoyalView Medical Spa with Natasha walking beside him, her head resting comfortably on his shoulder and her hand entwined with his.Her face is covered in bandages, with only her nose, eyes, and mouth visible, making her almost unrecognizable.Before this moment, Chairman Grey had fortunately caught Doctor Sean before he could tamper with the footage. It turned out that Doctor Sean hadn't appeared before Jordan not only because he lacked the courage to face him, but because he had gone to erase the beginning of the incident from the footage.Unfortunately for him, Jordan had already let Chairman Grey in on the possibility of that happening so he was doomed for failure even from the very beginning. While he wasn't killed, he was dismissed from his position, and his photograph was distributed to other hospitals in the county.It's safe to say that he might never practice medicine again."Jordan," Natasha suddenly halts as if recalling somethin
"Jordan, Miss Nicholson," as Daisy gets to them, she repeats.Natasha stiffens, anger and fear flashing in her eyes. This is the lady who caused her so much pain and suffering. Hasn't she done enough? What is she doing here? She unconsciously takes two steps backward before asking as politely as she can muster and without any atom of anger in her voice, "Miss Kane, you rushed over to us in such a hurry. Is there a problem?"Daisy glances at Jordan, who stands silently beside Natasha without even sparing her a glance and nibbles on her lower lip, sadness clouding her expression. However, she quickly composes herself and offers a sad smile as she says, "Miss Nicholson, I was inhumane to you, and I've come to apologize.""What?" Natasha's eyes dilate. This is Daisy Kane, the Princess of the Kane family, a lady whose shoelace she is not worthy to tie. What could possibly make her stoop to this level to apologize to her, a mere country bumpkin? Could it be? She glances toward Jordan onl
