Jackson's words and cold demeanor send a shiver down Director Bill's spine.As the hospital's director, his responsibility is to oversee the hospital's daily operations and report to the CEO. If the hospital were to suffer damage or disruption, how could he possibly explain it to the CEO? What excuse could he offer?His face contorts with worry, large beads of sweat forming on his brow and trickling down his chin."Director Bill, you are suddenly sweating so profusely, is the air condition not to your liking? Or is anything the matter?” Jackson smiles, adopting an innocent demeanor that starkly contrasts with his earlier hostility."Um," Director Bill stammers, swallowing hard. 'Bold of you to ask me that when you are the reason I'm in this turmoil!' He practically yells in his head, but outwardly, he forces a half-hearted smile as he retorts, "Of course not, Mr. Steele, everything is perfectly fine, I just feel a little hot," he wipes off his sweat with his handkerchief. "But there
Sharp gasps echo round the room at Jordan’s statement, everyone's jaw literally dropping to the floor in shock.It is now clear to them that Jordan is not just bold but crazy! Yes, he has lost his senses! Director Bill told him to repeat his words and he dared do so! Couldn't he have known that the ruthless old man was only setting him up for a trap? And he willingly fell for it!To top it off, he added that the man is also an imbecile. How outrageous. His boldness knows no bounds. They can't help but feel he really has a death wish.Jordan looks around, noting the repulsive gazes cast at him, but he doesn't flinch in the least. They can look at him any way they want. He couldn't care less.After all, the silly director asked for it and he only fulfilled his wish. Nevertheless, he can't hide the fact that he is so disappointed. Doctor Sean could act uncultured and foolishly but he expected better from the prestigious director of Royalview Medical Spa. He expected so much better."Yo
The entire room falls into a deathly silence as they witness Jordan ruthlessly breaking Director Bill's finger. Shock grips everyone, including Jackson, to the point where their jaws hang agape.They had always known that the other party was crazy, but they never expected him to be crazy to the extent of actually breaking Director Bill's finger. Director fucking Bill!What's even more astonishing is that the other party followed up his outrageous action with a threat to break all of Director Bill's fingers if he ever pointed at him again.They can't fathom where Jordan's courage comes from. A mere commoner like him—doesn't he fear for his own life? Even he, a bottom feeder, could actually lay hands on the ruthless Director Bill? "Outrageous!""How audacious!""Brazen!""How dare you break Director Bill's finger? You are so lawless and impulsive!"After the initial shock, the room erupts with angry shouts, most especially from the nurses who find Jordan's action disrespectful. This i
"Director Bill, you begged me to let you handle the young man, assuring me that you could resolve the situation in a matter of minutes. However, it's been quite a few minutes, and all you've managed to do is get your finger broken by him. Can a high-ranking director like yourself not handle a mere punk?" Before Director Bill can react to Jordan's retort, Jackson ruthlessly taunts, casting a condescending glance at him.Jordan is good with both words and actions and from the look of things, it appears he had managed to instill fear into Director Bill. If he doesn't take the initiative to taunt him, the old man might relent in his revenge scheme, causing the resolution of the situation to fall back into his hands. It's not that he is afraid of that happening but Jordan has displayed an extraordinary ability that makes him cautious about confronting him directly. At least till his underling arrives with information on the task he sent him. While he waits for that, he can only use Direc
Turning his gaze to the guards who are charging toward him like moths drawn to a flame, Jordan crinkles his nose in mild annoyance and says provocatively, "If you dogs wish to keep your heads, it would be wise to steer clear of me.""Brazen!""Crazy!""Such audacity!"The crowd erupts in chaos. Over twenty guards are charging at him, and here he is, warning them that he'll decapitate them if they don't back off. It seems utterly absurd!"He really won't give up his ego until he sees a coffin," a young man hisses."You, punk, you are quite arrogant!" One of the guards casts a cold glance at Jordan, his fists clenched and his eyes dark. "We outnumber you by a wide margin. What makes you think you can decapitate us?""Believe it or not, that's entirely up to you," Jordan shrugs indifferently."Hah!" The guards can't help but feel insulted by Jordan's nonchalant attitude. Despite being mere guards, they are highly skilled. Most people wouldn't dare challenge them, but this country bumpkin
"Argh! He really called in over a thousand men!" someone gasps."This is the price of arrogance! That young man is in for it!""I wonder if they'll even find his body when they're done with him!""Excellent! Excellent!" Director Bill laughs heartily, patting his chest.The guard smiles faintly, seeing the satisfied expression on Director Bill's face, and says calmly, "Director Bill, you summoned us all, so there must be a significant reason, right? Please, tell us."Director Bill's smile quickly fades, and his expression morphs into a stern frown. "You don't need to know the reason," he responds in a chilly tone. "All you need to know is that a young, arrogant man claimed he would defeat every single guard in this building.""Is that so?" Rather than instantly reacting with anger to such a preposterous claim, the guard's lips curl into a mocking smile. "And who is this 'Ares'?"Without uttering a word, Director Bill directs his gaze towards Jordan, who stands with his head held high an

"How audacious! You dare to refer to our boss as a dog?!" One of the guards instantly erupts in a fit of rage, snapping at Jordan with fiery intensity and glaring at him."Another dog," however, Jordan doesn't spare him a glance as he remarks nonchalantly."What did you just say?!" The guard snarls, his eyes turning bloodshot as he issues a challenge, "If you have the guts, I dare you to repeat yourself!"But Jordan doesn't bother to entertain him as he shrugs off indifferently without bothering to say anything. He's already made his point, and repeating himself seems unnecessary to him."Hah!" However, Jordan's indifference only intensifies the guard's fury. Strong killing intent flashes in his eyes and he begins exuding a murderous aura."Boss," turning to the earlier guard, who appears to be the head of security, he demands, "Can we deal with this asshole?"Without answering this question, the head guard glances at Director Bill and asks aloofly, "Director Bill, do you want that tr
