A black luxury car sped down the highway. In the back seat, Oliver’s face was stormy. He didn’t think that Isaac would really smash the screen in his office. That punk was too arrogant.“Mr. Crowe Jr., I heard from security that the Garten punk is looking for you. Will there be trouble?” said his assistant, turning his head in the passenger’s seat.“Do you think he’s a god? My car is on the move, so unless he controls the satellites in the sky…That asshole, how dare he smash my computer…His father-in-law will die now.” Oliver picked up his phone as he spoke, about to give Dr. Oakley his new “order.”At that moment, there was a loud noise.Oliver’s head hit the roof of the car, and he was sent sprawling upside down.After Oliver straightened himself, he roared at the driver, “Do you have a death wish? Is this how you drive?”When he saw that his car had collided with a Land Cruiser, fury boiled within him. He roared at the driver again, “Go ask that idiot how he got his driver’s l
“Stupid fatty, what do you think you’re doing? I’m warning you. This is my personal office…Ah…”A scream sounded from the room, followed by loud thuds and the sound of things crashing. Behind the door, Allegra’s heart began to race out of her control. She turned her head to see Isaac leaning against the wall, puffing on a cigarette.“Isaac, if something happens to my father, I’ll never forgive you,” Allegra said, looking at Isaac with red eyes. Then, she turned and walked away.She didn’t understand why he had to solve every problem with violence. Hadn’t he had enough of prison?Even if he wanted to go to prison, why did he have to drag her father down with him? Damn it!Allegra came to a stop in front of the hospital room. She pushed the door open and saw a woman leaning over the bed.“Daisy, what are you doing here?”Daisy was startled by the sound of Allegra’s voice. She seemed to be guiding Eugene’s hand to draw something. She suddenly straightened up and smiled coldly at Al
Beefy Bob was kind of excited. In the Temple of Drakon, each general of the seven armies was extremely powerful. On the other hand, the Drakon of the Seven Armies had four skilled subordinates. The four of them followed Isaac to conquer the world. After going through fire and water together for almost six years, the usual definition of brotherhood could not adequately describe their closeness. After hearing Isaac’s noise of assent, Beefy Bob sighed with a smile. He uttered to himself in a low voice, “He’s going to be competing with me for affection again.” The moment Isaac left, Oliver yelled hysterically in his office, “Throw Eugene out right now!” Several security guards and nurses arrived at the hospital room. Their intentions were clear—they wanted Eugene out of the hospital now. Allegra looked at her father lying in the hospital bed. He was practically in a coma and had an oxygen mask covering his face. She turned to the security guards and nurses and begged, “We haven
“Isaac, I think you can be really funny sometimes.” Allegra pushed Beefy Bob aside, about to wheel the wheelchair out.Isaac stepped in front of her. “Ally, give me two days. If Eugene doesn’t improve in two days, we’ll go with your idea.”“Allegra, Isaac has already asked the—um, I mean, I have already found a very skilled naturopath. He’ll be here by tomorrow. It’s not this old man who’ll be treating your father.” When Beefy Bob caught Isaac’s gaze, he quickly changed his sentence midway.Allegra closed her eyes, taking a deep breath. She said helplessly, “Fine. It’s our last resort. Thanks, Bob.”Beefy Bob glanced at Isaac with terror, trying to signal that he didn’t have a choice.Although the room inside was small and old, the silver lining was that it was brightly lit and neat. Eugene stayed in this room.Another day passed. The old healer prepared some herbal medicine, which Allegra fed Eugene bit by bit, but his condition didn’t seem to improve.On the flip side, it seem
When everyone saw the man in the doorway wearing sunglasses in the middle of the night, they were all incredibly confused. Which loony bin did this guy come from?Harry approached the hospital bed, grinning cheerily. He reached out to touch Eugene’s wrist, humming to himself as he checked his pulse.He took off his sunglasses and looked at Allegra, whose eyes were red from crying. With a smile, he said, “Hey beautiful, please make way. I’m going to start the treatment.”“Who are you? Are you crazy? Who asked you to come here?” Andrew immediately shouted at Harry.“Harry Stewart, the 96th descendant of the Dark Healers clan, at your service. I also go by Dr. Stewart, Miracle Healer Stewart, Little Hippocrates, et cetera. His kidney function seems to be very weak. Please make room.”Harry’s last sentence made Andrew’s face freeze, and he was at a loss for words.Margaret couldn’t help but laugh at this Dr. Stewart, who looked like he was in his early 20s and had appeared out of now
“Heh, I feel much better.” When Margaret and Andrew heard Eugene’s voice, they were utterly shocked. They immediately burst into the room.They found Eugene sitting up halfway on the bed without his oxygen mask. He was currently drinking a glass of water that Allegra had poured him.“H—How could this be?” George’s eyes were about to fall out of their sockets. He couldn’t believe what he was seeing.Eugene’s gaze fell on Andrew’s face. He said quietly, “I heard you say that once I’m dead, my will would come into effect; is that right? Since when did I have a will?”The color drained from Andrew’s face. He smiled awkwardly and said, “Dad, I was just joking with Allegra. I’m glad you’re awake.”Eugene hummed and didn’t say another word.On the other side, Harry exited the clinic and walked to the sidewalk. Two people stood next to the black Land Rover—Isaac and Beefy Bob. Both of them had been here a while but didn’t go in.Stopping in front of Isaac, Harry suddenly fell onto one k
When Allegra heard the news, she immediately got up and put on some light makeup. As she left the house, she even reminded Isaac to remember to prepare the herbal medicine for Eugene.“What time are you coming home?” Isaac asked, raising his head.Allegra replied urgently, “I’ve found an office space for the company. I have to go take a look, so I don’t know when I’m coming back yet.”An office space? Larry’s face surfaced in Isaac’s mind. He frowned, taking out his phone to dial Beefy Bob’s number.Fennel Avenue was Cloud City’s most luxurious area. To its left were a pedestrian sidewalk and a commercial zone, while to its right were office blocks in the central business district. Besides those neighborhoods with villas and bungalows, this place was the most expensive location in Cloud City.By the time Allegra arrived at the 11th floor of Chromo Office, Larry was already waiting there with his good friend.He was a greasy fatty wearing a suit. His beady eyes roved over Allegra’
Half an hour later, the three of them had almost downed two bottles. Even Cooper was beginning to slur his words.As if their minds were in sync, Larry and Cooper both scooted closer to Allegra.“Ally, I could just give the owner a call to talk about the rent. After all, you’re such a beauty.” Cooper’s eyes narrowed into slits from his smiling. Subconsciously, he placed his right hand on Allegra’s stockinged thigh.Borrowing liquid courage, his hand began to inch upward.“Mr. Lawson, w—what are you doing?” Allegra jumped to her feet as though she had been electrocuted, looking terrified.Because she had drunk a lot, her reaction was a bit slow, but she had a bad feeling.“Oh, Ally, why are you so shy? Your shyness won’t get you anywhere.” Cooper suddenly grabbed Allegra’s hand with great force.At that moment, Larry also stood and walked behind her. Grinning, he placed his hand on her shoulder.Allegra squealed like a spooked kitten. She wanted to turn around and run, but Larry
