"You are here. You came for me. Thank you for coming. Please, take me out of here. Everything hurts. Everywhere hurts. My face burns. It burns so much... as if it's on fire," she clings onto him so tightly as if he would disappear if she leaves him, hiccups escaping her lips.Natasha doesn't think she has ever been this hurt in her entire life. And the fact that a fellow lady did this to her makes the pain even more painful. But as she recalls that Jordan is here now, she lets out a breath, relief washing over her, and slumps, slipping into unconsciousness.Jordan lets out a heavy sigh as he glances at the woman in his arms. Just last night, she had almost gotten assaulted by a former classmate, and now this. She k
A Billionaire After Divorce RIDICULOUS RULE
After several minutes of cutting through streets in search of a hospital, the car finally pulls over in front of a gigantic hospital with the name RoyalView Medical Spa and the driver kills the engine. "We are...," he tries to say but Jordan doesn't let him finish as he abruptly tosses his payment to him, carries Natasha, and alights, slamming the door shut. Natasha's face is so battered and bloody and he can only hope the hospital can provide the necessary treatment to address her injuries and prevent any lasting scars.

Luckily, he had intervened in time, just before Daisy could finish her ridiculous masterpiece.Without further ado, he strides into the hospital, heading straight for the Emergency Department.

Instead of the expected effi
A Billionaire After Divorce BIASED AND INHUMANE TREATMENT
"Who dares ask if my father has been registered when he's on the brink of death and urgently requires attention?" Before the scared and shocked nurses can respond, a frosty and imposing voice demands, and a tall, fair muscular young man dressed in opulent attire strides into the department, carrying himself with an air of arrogance as if he owns the place.Without sparing anyone in the room a glance, he waltzes over to the doctor, disdainfully glancing at his hand on the stretcher, and repeats, "I said who dares ask if my father has been registered when he's on the brink of death and urgently requires attention? Can't the riffraff speak anymore or has he become deaf and dumb?""Uhm," the doctor swallows a lump of spittle. "K... kind sir," he stammers, breaking out in a cold sweat. "The thing is we have rules in this hospital. Your father...""What about my father?" The young man interrupts, his voice growing colder, and a dark expression clouding his face."Nothing, kind sir," wiping
A Billionaire After Divorce NURSES!
Hearing the doctor's words, a young man snorts with cold disdain, his face contorted with anger. "Hah!" He sucks his teeth and stomps his foot as he confronts the doctor, saying, "You're not only inhumane, heartless, and ruthless, but you're also a liar and a hypocrite! How dare you invoke the rules when you clearly broke them by allowing that man's father in without registration?""And who are you to question my decisions?" The doctor retorts indifferently, staring at him condescendingly. Remaining unapologetic of his actions, he declares resolutely, "You don't tell me how to run things in this hospital! I'm in charge here and you have to abide by my words! It doesn't concern you whom I allow to bend the rules. Get that into your dumb head!"Jordan twists his head in disbelief, chuckling wryly. The doctor's demeanor keeps leaving him astonished over and over again. Like, not only is he a hypocrite and so thick-skinned, but he is also so saucy. His behavior sucks in every way, making
A Billionaire After Divorce A WIDE GRIN
The nurses and crowd are in a state of disbelief as they watch the unexpected scene unfolding before their very eyes, to the point that their mouths are literally dropping to the floor. They never expected anyone to be so audacious as to confront Doctor Sean in such a manner."Oh my goodness, that guy did not only cut Doctor Sean's wrist but he also stopped him from leaving to get any medical attention, who on earth is he?" One of the nurses whispers to her colleague and grabs her arm, her curiosity reaching its zenith."I have no clue who he is," the other nurse replies, her voice filled with a mixture of admiration and concern. "But I must say, he's either incredibly bold or incredibly foolish for what he just did. It's hard to decide whether to applaud him for his bravery or condemn him for his recklessness.""Indeed, Doctor Sean's status and reputation are formidable," another nurse chimes, seeing point with her colleague. "It's usually only those with an extraordinary background
A Billionaire After Divorce THANK YOU, SIR!
"You... you are so heartless!" Doctor Sean's voice trembles with frustration and rage. "You did this to me yet you're grinning! You're actually enjoying this! I'm losing a dangerous amount of blood, and the only thing I need is immediate treatment! You might have severed a vein! "Now, get your hand off my coat so I can go! Let me go right now! I don't have any time to waste! And trust me, you won't want to provoke me any further!""Bold of you to accuse me of being so heartless when you are the epitome of heartlessness yourself!" Jordan scoffs. "And wait, did you say I won't want to provoke you any further? Hmph, you are just a mere doctor, what can you possibly do?"You couldn't do anything when I slit your wrist, what can you do now?" He rolls his eyes. "Anyways, it seems that, according to your own words and actions, no matter what the issue may be, the patient has to wait till he or she has been registered. "Or isn't that what you said?" he continues, a wry smile playing on his l
A Billionaire After Divorce PFFT, MMM
At the cold words of the young man, a heavy silence envelops the ER, with the nurses and crowd wide-eyed in shock, a sudden and overwhelming tension settling over the room. Their blood runs cold, and most of the nurses instinctively let go of the stretchers and hide behind each other's backs, desperately avoiding the piercing and icy gaze of the young man, which feels like it could sear through their skin."Kind sir, there are numerous wards in the hospital. If you wish, I can arrange for your father to be transferred to the main building where he would have his own exclusive ward while these patients have the departments in the ER," taking a deep breath, Doctor Sean approaches the young man and says courteously, seemingly trying to please him while also not displeasing Jordan, who had forced him to give attention to the other patients.However, the young man, seemingly aware of Doctor Sean's intentions and not willing to entertain them, frowns and abruptly raises his palm, delivering
A Billionaire After Divorce I SAID, IS THAT UNDERSTOOD?
Doctor Sean clenches his fists, the intense urge to slap back the young man rocking through his veins like a tornado, but as he gazes at the menacing sturdy figures behind him and also remembers that he doesn't yet know his real identity, he takes a deep breath to soothe his frustration and says bitterly, "I was only trying to please you. Did you really need to slap me?"The young man's demeanor shifts, and he adopts a mocking tone as he approaches Doctor Sean, who is nursing his injury. "Aww, you are hurt?" As he gets to him and takes a closer look at his bitter expression, he drawls, puckering his lips and chuckling. "Come on, don't be such a baby. It was just a mere slap. Stomach it like the man you are," he pats him on the shoulder."By the way, I don't want you to make a mistake of assuming what isn't right so let me be clear," he continues, his tone growing sinister. "I didn't slap you because of what you said. Heck, I don't even care about whatever you say because, in the end,

MY SON
Henry's face darkens. He is the young master of the Maguires, how can he get on his knees and apologize to Jordan?Such an act would not only disappoint his family but also jeopardize his position as the heir apparent. His pride and ego would also be crushed and he might never be able to raise his head high again."You don't want to do it?""You're being unfairly unfair to me. When Isabella apologized to you, you didn't ask her to get on her knees. Why are you asking me to do that? What are you trying to achieve?""Achieve? Hmph!" Jordan snorts. "I choose how I want anyone to apologize to me. It's late, and I need to leave. Are you apologizing or not?""I can only apologize to you while standing; I'll never kneel to you," Henry grits his teeth."What if I insist?" A menacing aura suddenly bursts out of Jordan, and he grabs Henry's shoulder, applying force."Ah!" Henry cries out, his face distorting. "What are you doing?!" he barks."Kneel!" Jordan bellows, applying more force.THUD!J

GET ON YOUR KNEES
Seeing this, Natasha turns pale. From Jordan's reaction, it's obvious he and this person are not on good terms. This leaves her wondering how that could be when the person gifted him such a unique card.Perhaps he did before whatever happened between them happened. She can't help feeling bad for asking the question."I'm sorry," she whispers."It's fine," Jordan offers her a small smile. "You did nothing. Let's just continue eating."Back at the hall...Somehow Henry and Isabella has managed to consume a quarter of the order. For an order that took three tables, that in itself is a commendable feat. At this moment, Isabella is sitting on the floor, drenched in sweat.Though there's AC in the room, it's as if nothing is touching her. Her naturally flat tummy appears to have broken its record today as it is now protruding. Beside Isabella, Henry is in a similar state, just that he is gasping so much, almost as if he can't breathe.For the first time, he believes the adage that says wha

I BROKE A BANK
"What? Why? Jordan paid all the bills so why am I not allowed to leave?" Isabella asks, staring at the burly men in confusion."Our general manager instructed us not to let any of you leave until the food and wine on the round table are cleared.""What?" Isabella's jaw drops. "What does he mean by that? How can only two of us finish that quantity of food and wine?""We don't know, Miss, but that is the instruction. Except the food and wines are cleared, you can only remain here.""How ridiculous!" Henry stands and bellows. "I'm the young master of the Maguires, will you two really stop me from leaving?""We only follow instructions, sir. It doesn't matter who you are, so yes.""Fine, wait until I send for my family guards!" Henry glares at them and reaches into his pocket and pulls out his phone.However, before he can do anything with it, the phone is swiftly snatched from him."I'm sorry, sir. But that is not allowed. You can only start eating now or remain here even after the resta

WHAT?!
"What is this?" As the waitress accepts the card from Jordan and stares down at it, she asks, her brows furrowed in confusion."Hahaha, Jordan, did you pick up a play card on the floor? When did debit start being gold in color?" Henry jeers, laughing mockingly at him."That you don't know the card, is that what makes it a play card that I picked on the floor?" Jordan scoffs. "Anyways, your reaction is well expected, I would have been even surprised if any of you knew the card because the card is only one in the entire country, specially made for me.""Hah, what is that? Isn't he exaggerating too much?" A diner frowns. "He is just a pauper; how could he have a card that is only one in the country and is specially made for him? In fact, when has it ever been heard that a card was specially made for someone? Even the King of Zephyria might not have such card, who is he to?""He must be playing games with us all! Hah, he has no money and he made such a scene. How infuriating.""Well, I'm

GOLD CARD
"Why will I?" Jordan retorts, rolling his eyes. "Please order away! Don't hold back!""Jordan," Natasha, not being able to help it, tugs at his shirt. "They are obviously plotting against you, how can you still ask her to order after Henry has ordered that much? Do you really have the money to pay?"Jordan smiles. "I wasn't joking when I said I could buy this whole restaurant, let alone a few drinks and meals. What are you waiting for? Order yours as well. Also add mine.""Hahaha, Jordan, you seem to have hit the jackpot. Even your character is like one a wealthy man. In that case, I won't be polite neither will I hold back." Isabella turns to the waiter who is still waiting. "I will have this, this, this, this..." Unlike Henry who only placed order for approximately twelve meals and wines, Isabella takes hers up a notch, ordering 20 meals and 20 wines, the meals in the price range of five hundred thousand and the wines in the price range of one million."Ah!" Natasha slams her hand

PLOTTING AGAINST HIM
Two days ago or thereabout, Isabella met with Henry Maguire who urged her to invest in Starwood Apparels. However, Jordan came out of nowhere to tell her that doing so would be the greatest mistake she would ever make. He even claimed that the company would soon be destroyed. He had been so confident in his words that she started doubting her decision. If not for Henry that urged to trust him even just that once, that was how she would have been deceived and lost out on a rare opportunity to rise her family back to glory.Now, when Henry asked Jordan what he could say considering how things just turned out, she had expected him to at least be humble and sane enough to apologize for spilling the trash he spilled the last time.Instead of doing that, he began spilling another trash and acting as if he was one celestial god. She is so infuriated and can't help but wonder how it could be possible that they were once married. At this moment, she feels divorcing him has to be the best dec

SCULPTED PALATE
"Let's sit here," finding a table close to the window, Jordan says and draws out a chair, gesturing like a perfect gentleman,"Please sit, My Lady."Natasha rolls her eyes and mouths a soft "thank you" before taking her seat."You are always welcome, My Lady," Jordan smiles and walks over to the other side, also taking his seat."Welcome to Sculpted Palate, one of the best restaurants in East Veridora, dear prestigious customers. "Here, we serve all kinds of sumptuous and luxurious meals. Here are our menus for your selections. The price of each meal is attached to it," almost immediately, a beautiful waitress approaches Jordan and Natasha and says with a charming smile.Jordan doesn't bother to accept a menu from the waitress. He says indifferently, "I'll have anything the lady picks."Natasha feels her cheeks reddening at that statement. She quickly takes a menu from the waitress and uses it to cover her face. Simultaneously, she glances over the pages.The next second, a frown res

LET'S GO IN
"Mr. Callahan, have you found what it is you forgot? What was it though?" As they pass the receptionist's desk, the receptionist, catching a glimpse of Jordan, lifts her gaze and asks."Yes, I have, and it is...," Jordan pauses, a smile tugging at his lips as he glances down at Natasha Natasha beside him."What are you looking at me for?" Natasha turns deeper shades of red. She has to turn her face away him.Jordan chuckles and drawls, "I told the beautiful receptionist that I lost something, which was why I came back to the company, but what she didn't know was that I actually didn't lose something but someone. Now, I've found her and I'm leaving with her.""Aww, that's so sweet," the receptionist whispers. "I've been seeing you guys together a lot. It's a good thing you decided to allow love blossom between you. "You guys look so good together, almost like a match made in heaven! I can't wait for your wedding invitation!"Jordan stares at Natasha, whose cheeks are now as red as fr
