The Collins mansion was aglow with bulbs and neon lights, and soft music played inside. A celebration was underway, as Granny Victoria Regina, the matriarch of the Collins family, marked her seventy-fifth birthday tonight. She sat on a special seat that once belonged to her late husband. With a warm smile, she welcomed prestigious guests to her party. " Grandma Victoria, I've brought a jade hairpin worth $30,000." someone said. " Happy birthday, Granny. I've brought you a gift. This box contains the most expensive medical skincare, which will make you look even younger." another person added, and many more gifts followed. Granny Victoria has two sons and a daughter, with many grandchildren, including Sophia, Slade's wife. Sophia is the daughter of Granny Victoria's first son. As Granny Victoria looked around, she couldn't find Slade anywhere, causing a frown to appear on her face. With a stern look and cold voice, she turned sharply towards Sophia, who stood at a corner, phone pressed against her chest. She seemed worried, glancing occasionally at the entrance door. " Sophia!" Granny Victoria called sternly, causing Sophia to bite her lip aggressively. She already knew why she was being called – it was all because of her husband, Slade Ryan. Despite reminding him about Granny Victoria's birthday at the hospital the previous day, he still hadn't arrived. Sophia had been expecting her family to win over Granny Victoria's favor with the gift Slade was supposed to pick up. But now, he was nowhere to be found, and she was running out of time. Sophia had been standing at a corner, hoping to avoid attention until Slade arrived, but Granny Victoria's sharp eyes caught her immediately. " I'm here, Grandma." Sophia said with a smile, her head hung low. " Where is that worthless piece of trash you call your husband?" Granny Victoria lashed out in anger. " Isn't he supposed to be here? Even if he's too poor to buy me a gift, at least he should do the dishes when the party's over!" " I'm sorry, Grandma. I will call him again." Sophia apologized, dialing Slade's number for the tenth time that day. She sighed and bit her lower lip, as the call was directed to voicemail. All Sophia wanted was for Slade to deliver the gift he was asked to pick up. She didn't care if he breaks an arm or a leg, so far he brings the gift with him, she's okay with that. " He only eats and does nothing, such worthless trash!" a masculine voice said, fueling the already blazing fire. Sophia raised her head sharply, glaring at the man who spoke up. " What? Am I not telling the truth, dear cousin?" Nathan asked with a grin. At that moment, Sophia would have loved to wipe the grin off his lips and seal his mouth forever. " Enough, Nathan!" Granny Victoria raised her hand, and pin-drop silence followed immediately. " Even though your family manages a small branch of Collingwood Enterprise, I'm sure you can afford a gift for me, can't you?" Granny Victoria raised an eyebrow. " Oh yes, Grandma. I sent Slade to bring the gift with him, but he isn't back yet." Sophia's voice trailed off at the latter words. She shut her eyes and bit her lips, almost drawing blood. She couldn't be more embarrassed than she was at that moment. It was all because of her worthless husband. He had once again embarrassed her in front of many prestigious guests who were invited to the birthday party. " You know how slow your husband can be, so why did you send such a slow snail like him?" a feminine voice asked, her voice filled with mockery. She is Mulan, Nathan's younger sister. Both Nathan and Mulan happened to be the children of Grandma Victoria's second son. They disliked Sophia as much as they disliked her husband and her whole family. Associating with Sophia and her entire family could bring bad luck to them, according to what their father had told them. Ever since Dominic, Sophia's father, made a great mistake and was demoted to a small branch of Collingwood Enterprise, it has been hell for Sophia and her family. They had to constantly face mockery and gossip from other members of the Collins family. They were literally the lowest in the family business. " I was busy with other things, so I had Slade pick up the gifts." Sophia replied, glaring at Mulan, who also returned the glare with the same enthusiasm. " Can't he just quit his job at the hospital? He's useless there. How can a surgeon not be able to perform surgery because he killed someone?" Nathan mocked, and all eyes instantly fell on him. " What are you talking about?" Granny Victoria squinted her eyes, her voice stern. " I heard that he killed a patient during surgery due to excessive bleeding, yesterday." Nathan replied. " I see. He's just useless and worthless. He can't even save the life of his patients; how can he save himself and his wife?" Mulan added. " I don't think so, Nathan. He never said anything about that." Sophia interrupted. " Why would a loser like him tell his wife that he killed a patient during surgery?" Nathan was trying hard to ridicule and make jest of Slade in front of the whole family and the invited guests. He wanted nothing more than to reduce Slade to nothing and make Sophia divorce him. " And what makes you think that I killed my patient?" came a masculine, sharp voice from the entrance door. The aura from the voice alone sent chills down the spines of some of the guests. Everyone turned around to take a look, and to their surprise, it was Slade standing at the entrance door. " Were you kicked out of Goshen Medical Center? I can't believe even your family kicked you out of their lives. You're indeed useless." Nathan mocked. " Well, I'm sorry to disappoint, cousin-in-law, but no one died, and I wasn't kicked out of Goshen Medical Center." Slade replied and walked fully into the hall. " What took you so long?" Sophia glared as she rushed to take the box of gifts from his hand. "I will deal with you later at home." " What are you talking about? Didn't your patient die? He died of excessive bleeding, isn't that true?" Nathan smiled nervously as he asked. He was making it obvious that he also planned to set Slade up, alongside Caleb and Michael. " And what makes you think that my patient died from excessive bleeding? Did you join hands with my step-brothers?" Slade asked, a smirk dancing at the corners of his lips, his eyes on Nathan, who swallowed nervously. After what Slade said, all eyes instantly fell on Nathan. " What are you talking about? Join your brothers for what? I never did such a thing!" His voice was louder than normal, making the guests even more suspicious. " Why would anyone want to believe the piece of trash coming out of your mouth?" " Because I'm a pain in your ass, and you will do anything and everything to get rid of me. Isn't that it?" Slade grinned widely.

“ Why would I do that? You aren't even worth it,” Nathan chuckled, but Slade could tell that he was damn nervous.However, others couldn't see what he saw.“ Why would I want you out of your father's medical center when you're nothing but an errand doctor?” Nathan mocked, and the guests burst into laughter. Sophia's cheeks flushed with embarrassment, so did her family's. Her mother was already seething with anger.“ Enough!” Granny Victoria raised her hand, and the argument stopped immediately. She exuded an aura of power. “ You!” She pointed at Slade. “ Go join the maids and do all the dishes the guests used."Nathan and Mulan smiled, but Slade's next words shocked them to their core.“ Grandma, why should I do the dishes when there are enough maids and butlers to do them?” Everyone gasped and held their breath, waiting for Granny Victoria's response. She was also shocked, her eyes widening and her mouth parting.“ Did...did you just go against Grandma's words?” Nathan stuttere

GOSHEN MEDICAL CENTERAs Slade entered the hospital, murmurs and whispers filled the air. Doctors, nurses, and patients couldn't help but glance and mock him." Isn't he the son of the hospital's owner? Look at him wearing nothing! What an embarrassing sight!" one of them said." Has he gone mad or something? What's with the tattered clothes?" another asked." I'll never let him touch me!" a patient exclaimed.Slade remained unfazed by their words as he made his way to his office. Unfortunately, he encountered Micheal and Caleb speaking with other directors on his way. They were heading to the boardroom for an important meeting when they came across Slade.Micheal almost laughed at Slade's tattered clothes. To be honest, he looked like a madman, with torn clothes and bloodstains all over his body. The directors scrunch their faces in disgust." Why are you bent on disgracing your father and brothers? Did you come to the hospital like that?" one of the directors asked, his face pi

Micheal was sweating and trembling as he continued stitching up the patient, while Slade was already done and his patient had been transferred to the ICU. He was overwhelmed and still couldn't believe that Slade, the worthless piece of trash, had just won against him.The assisting surgeons inside the operating room began to whisper and murmur among themselves, throwing glances at Micheal. Some of them gazed at Slade with admiration." I can't believe Slade won against the head of surgeons in a surgery competition!" one of them exclaimed." Isn't he the same Slade who was just an errand doctor? How come he possesses such skills?" another surgeon asked." I'm guilty for looking down on him and even sending him on an errand a few days ago! I hope he won't unleash his wrath on me!" The assisting surgeons couldn't help but panic. They were guilty of mocking Slade and sending him to get them coffee before. Now that he had shown his skills, they were afraid he might be promoted to dire

I heard that you're the one who performed the surgery on Mr. Kings." he started, while Slade's brow creased together. He had no idea who Mr. Kings was, but nevertheless, he nodded." I don't know why Micheal gave you permission to perform a surgery on an important patient, but still, the man wants to see you. Make sure you're on your best behavior and don't disgrace me!" Mr. Joshua said sternly before walking away with the group of directors behind him.Once he was gone, Slade pushed the ward's door open and went inside. There, he met Mr. Kings munching on his fruit happily. He had a huge smile on his face, and Slade couldn't help but smile too.

How may I help you?" she asked, her tone condescending.From the look in her eyes to the attitude she was emitting, Slade already knew that she was looking down on him.But one thing she wasn't aware of was that he was no longer a jobless bum, a foolish man, but someone with great medical skills who was also a millionaire." I'm here to make some withdrawals." Slade replied, handing her his card. The banker snorted." If not a hundred dollars, then what?" she murmured to herself, but Slade heard her and kept quiet." I'm here to withdraw a million dollars." he intentionally drew his words, causing the banker

He received the money and was about to leave the bank when the banker fell to her knees, right in front of Selina and her boyfriend, Richard. " I... I'm sorry, Mr. Ryan, please forgive me." she begged. Slade halted in his tracks while Selina's mouth opened in disbelief. She couldn't believe that a banker would fall to her knees in front of Slade, a man she considered useless. " Why are you kneeling for him? Is he a god or something?" Richard spoke up for the first time since he arrived with Selina. " I don't know, baby. He's a waste, and I can't wait for my sister to divorce him!" Selina glared at Slade, her eyes burning with hatred and disgust. " Will you stand up and attend to us?" Richard said, but the banker remained on her knees, her eyes staring at Slade's back, hoping he would forgive her. If words got out about how she treated a VIP customer, she would definitely lose h

By the time Slade was done with the young master, he was barely breathing. He stopped hitting him, exhaled, and returned to his meal while the manager and waiters rushed to the young master." Young Master Chen!" they called, trying to wake him up, but he was already unconscious." You!" The manager stood up and walked towards Slade. " What have you done?" He pointed at Slade, who totally ignored him." I'm talking to you! Do you have any idea who he is? He is the young master of the Chen family, one of the biggest families in Capital M City!" The manager yelled, trying to get a reaction from Slade, but unfortunately, he got none." With just one phone call from them, you'd be as good as dead!" The manager was still speaking when the door to the restaurant pushed open, and a few people rushed in. One of them was an old man."

What do you think, you useless pig!" Quincy glared at him.

He had expected Young Master Chen to retaliate, but it was faster than he had thought. He walked towards the window and began to count how many men Young Master Chen had brought with him. There were over thirty! Though he was strong enough to take them down, but they could harm other members of the family, which he didn't want." I will go talk to them."

Slade arrived home from work early, as he had a meeting to attend at Grandma Victoria's villa.After taking a cold shower, he arrived at the villa, already ten minutes late. He knew he was in for a barrage of insults, but he was prepared for whatever was coming his way. He had no idea what the meeting was about, as it hadn't occurred in his first life. The Collins family had never called a meeting before his first death, but whatever the meeting was about, Slade wasn't going to let it ruin his plans." You pig! Why are you here so late? How dare you disrespect me!" Grandma Victoria yelled at him before he could even step foot into the family hall. " I was caught up in traffic." Slade replied calmly, taking his seat at the far end of the hall. Usually, during family meetings, he wasn't offered a seat, instead, he would stand at the door entrance. The fact that he was offered a seat for the first time in three years made him suspect that something was amiss, but he couldn't quite

A MEETING AT THR MATRIACH'S VILLA
" Father! What is this all about?" Caleb slammed his fist against the wooden desk in front of him, not caring that other doctors and professors were in the hall as he yelled. " What do you think? I said that Slade here would be in charge of the research for Mayor Ronaldo's illness." Mr. Joshua, their father, said, causing Caleb to scoff." Why would you give it to him? What about Michael? Isn't he more than capable of being in charge of the research?" Caleb asked, glaring at Slade with a fierce intensity. If glares could kill, Slade would certainly be six feet under. Caleb's gaze was taunting, and if not for the fact that Slade was reborn, he would have cowered under the weight of his brother's stare.Slade was once a pathetic and timid individual who always ran away from trouble. He was afraid of his two brothers and never dared to confront them or perform a surgery, despite being skilled enough. However, that was no longer the case."

Like her mother, Quincy, had said, Sophia thought it through at night and decided to go with the flow. She was going to seduce Caleb and climb to the top using him as her ladder. Dressing gorgeously in a tight gown that barely reached her knee length, and wearing smoky makeup, she made her way to Goshen Medical Center. It wasn't like she had business there. She was just there to seduce Caleb – at least, give it a try.Upon getting to Goshen Medical Center, she headed straight to Caleb's office in another department. Caleb was the head of the department in charge of payments owned by the medical center. Upon seeing her, he couldn't get his eyes off her, and neither could the other male employees. They gulped, ogled, and licked their lips at the sight of Sophia. She was indeed a beautiful sight to behold." Sophia, what are you doing here?" Caleb was surprised at her sudden visit, but it didn't stop him from ogling at her curvy shape and huge breasts, which were popping out of he

Slade returned to the house once the police had arrested all the mobsters and the young master of the Chen family had to follow them to write a statement. Though he would be bailed out earlier than the others, because, of course, he was the heir of the Chen family, and they wouldn't want anything to tarnish their son's image." Isn't it suspicious?" Seline asked, seated on a sofa in the sitting room, her eyes narrowed and her head tilted." What's that?" Quincy asked, throwing a chip into her mouth as she read her fashion magazine." The fact that the police came at the right time. Isn't it too suspicious?" Seline asked, and Quincy stopped reading and glanced at her youngest daughter." Yes, it is very much suspicious, but at the same time, it isn't. Maybe someone sent a report to the police, and they happened to come at that particular time. It's a coincidence, Seline." Quincy said, waving her off. Still, Seline couldn't help but ponder about it.Meanwhile, Slade entered his room a
