However, before Richard replied, his phone rang suddenly, catching everyone’s attention. He glanced at the screen and moved to a corner to take the call.A few others glanced over, and one burst into laughter."You guys won’t believe this,” someone said, chuckling. “That dude’s trying to scam all of us. Guess who just called him? Aaron Windsor! Can you believe that?”“For real? He went that far? Thank God we know he's just a king of scum.”Richard answered the call, his voice low and serious.“I’m sorry to disturb you, young master. My daughter's condition suddenly worsened,” Aaron Windsor’s desperate voice came through the speaker.“I don’t know what else to do except to ask for your help,” the voice continued, trembling with worry.“Pick me up. I’m at the Noble Knight Club.”“Yes, sure! Thank you very much, young master. I really appreciate your kindness. I’ll send someone to pick you up right now.”Richard ended the call and turned to Melissa.“I’m sorry, but I have to decline yo
A few minutes after Richard arrived at Windsor's mansion, the old butler, already waiting at the entrance, greeted him."Respected Sir Richard, Master Aaron asks for forgiveness as he has not returned home yet. He asked me to guide you in checking Miss Jillian’s condition.""No problem, take me to her," Richard replied.The butler led Richard through the luxury long hallways. As they approached Jillian's room, a sharp, sterile medical smell filled the air.An older woman was already pacing back and forth there anxiously.Upon seeing Richard, she immediately turned and rushed to him.It was Jillian Windsor’s mother, Julia Windsor."Doctor, please help my daughter!" Julia pleaded desperately.“Calm down. No need to worry."Richard saw a young woman lying still on the bed, her breathing shallow and labored.She appeared to be in her early twenties, her once-beautiful features now overshadowed by a sickly pallor.Her face was ashen, her body trembling uncontrollably, and tears clung to h
Dr. Jacob added.“Young lad, it’s fine if you lack ability, but you’d better not speak recklessly. Not only does it make you look foolish, but it also delays others.”“Doctor Jacob, please treat my sister. Don’t listen to this bastard.” Caleb snarled, pushing Richard away.“Who is this young man, anyway?”Caleb looked at Richard with great disdain.“Never mind, Doctor Jacob. He is just a scammer who scammed my father.”“You’re wrong. I came because Aaron asked me.” Richard calmly said, “By the way, do you want me to treat her or not?”Julia hesitated, torn between her husband’s wishes and Jillian’s condition.She glanced between Dr. Jacob, who had treated many famous people, and the young man barely older than Jillian.“You are still young,” she spoke. “Let Doctor Jacob treat my daughter.”“You heard my Mom, right?” Caleb said. “Now fuck off so Doctor Jacob can start.”“Go ahead then,” Richard coldly stated.Dr. Jacob sneered. "Listen, young man. If you think you can use me as a ste
At the mansion entrance, the butler bowed to Richard, his posture respectful.“I’m sorry for your trouble. Please, don’t take it to heart.”“No worries,” Richard replied.Suddenly, two bodyguards rushed out.“Stop there and follow us back to the room, or we’ll shoot,” one barked, their hands reaching for their weapons.Without hesitation, the butler struck both bodyguards across the face.They staggered back, stunned.“Fools,” the butler growled.“This young man is Mr. Windsor’s guest. Mind your words, or I’ll kill you both.”The bodyguards turned even paler.They had never seen the butler this angry and didn’t even realize how they were struck.They had heard the butler was once a feared assassin.“We... we’re sorry,” one of the bodyguards stammered.“But Miss Jillian’s condition is critical, and Dr. Jacob said this man poisoned her.”The butler’s eyes narrowed, his voice icy. “So, that idiot made a mistake and now wants to blame someone else?”He turned to Richard and bowed deeply,
When Dr. Jacob and Caleb were still trying to understand the situation, they were already taken out by the butler outside the room.“Butler!” Caleb wanted to protest.Yet, the butler cut him off, “Young master, you better prepare what you will say to your father. He is already on his way here.”Caleb turned pale.Inside the room, Richard, without hesitation, cut away Jillian’s clothes, leaving her naked.This time, he didn’t ask for any permission from Julia anymore, as Jillian’s condition was already critical.He put Jillian in the bathtub and then took out nine acupuncture needles.As Richard flicked his hand, the needles seemed to find the points by themselves and landed on Jillian’s body with precision.The water in the bathtub turned visibly murky brown and foul-smelling at an alarming rate.It was as if the toxins from Jillian were rapidly being expelled from her body and neutralized by the chemicals in the bathtub.Richard pour another palm of ingredients into the bathtub.The
Previously, Aaron rushed to his mansion happily as he had just received the news that his daughter had finally been cured.He was grateful for Master Richard’s help and was already considering what gift to give as thanks.Yet, as soon as he reached home, the first thing he saw was his son audaciously yelling at the guard to hit the young master.Cold sweat broke out on Aaron's brow, and his heart seemed to freeze.The young master only needed to cough a bit, and the whole Windsor Group in Vantican would be replaced by others at his whim."You fool!" enraged with fear, he kicked Caleb to the ground.Meanwhile, the butler hastily rushed to Aaron to explain everything in a low voice.Julia and Dr. Jacob, who heard Aaron shouting, walked out of the room to check what had happened."Father, why kick me? It’s this man who showed disrespect to me…"Without a word, Aaron struck Caleb across the face before he could finish.Two of Caleb's teeth fell to the floor.Julia gasped in shock.This wa
“Father,” Jillian walked out of the room, and Aaron hastily rushed to her side. “Minnie, you are still unwell, rest first.”“It’s okay, Father,” Jillian smiled. “I’ve never felt so energetic like this for so long.”“Minnie,” Aaron felt truly joyful. “Come, let’s say thanks to your doctor.”Jillian stepped forward, blushing shyly. “Thank you for healing me.”“You’re welcome.”Aaron took out two sets of keys and respectfully handed them to Richard.One set was the key to the limited edition of the newest Sport car Bugatti La Voiture Noire, which was worth $ 20 million.The other set was the key to a mansion, which was worth $ 500 million.Richard had rejected them once, but now Aaron thought it was the right time.“This is a small token of thanks. I know it’s nothing much to you, but please accept it. I hope you don’t find it lacking.”Julia and Caleb were once again stunned by the scene.The amount was far beyond the usual consultation fee.And Aaron was showing an excessive level of
“Are you certain you want us to dine at your place, Sabrina?” Carter inquired.“Why don’t we consider Vantican First Restaurant instead? It’s on me.”“I appreciate it, but I’m really not feeling up to it. You know what’s been troubling me,” Sabrina sighed.“Don’t worry about it. My dad is already working his connections. He’ll inform me if there’s any positive news about Windsor Enterprise.”Carter moved closer, trying to putt an arm around her waist for comfort.All of a sudden, Laura let out a scream as if she’d seen a ghost.“Holy cow!”“What’s going on?” Sabrina rushed to Laura’s side.Carter dropped his arm and frowned.“I swear I just saw Richard in that luxury car that passed by. Am I seeing things?” Laura asked, staring at the car in disbelief.Or maybe it was just someone who resembled Richard?She wasn’t sure.“You must be joking!” Carter scoffed, shaking his head. “Didn’t you notice the license plate?”“But—”“That car clearly belongs to someone wealthy or significant.
