In his moment of despair, Dr. Hamilton seemed to have realized something as he turned towards James, his eyes gleaming brilliantly like a lady in distress who just saw her knight in shining armor.

"Y-- you were able to tell what was going on r-right..?"

"Yup. What's your point exactly?" James lips curved.

How couldn't he tell where the other party was driving at? however he refused to make things easy for him.

"If you know something tell me.. although I am a proud man.. I hate watching my patients die.."

James gave the other party a look before exhaling.

"It's fine. Even if you hadn't asked so nicely, I wouldn't have stayed at the sidelines and done nothing.."

"Just leave everything to me.." James took a step forward, placing his palm of Mr. Krios forehead as he inspected his body's metabolism with his Spirit Sense.

"You really made a mess this time. Quick, give me twelve of your acupuncture needles.." James snapped his fingers with urgency.

"T-Twelve?" Dr. Hamilton hesitated

    "Mum, you really don't have to do all this hard work again. Now that I have returned, I promise to easen up your stress" James sighed helplessly when he saw his mother walk through the door. Judging from her sweat drenched appearance, she had just finished a day of labour at her vegetable farm. "Don't worry. Over the past two years during your absence, I was able to survive. There's no way I'm going to break down now.." although she felt exhausted, Stella still forced out a smile. Seeing her in this state caused James to develop a twist in his heart. No matter what, he was going to repay all the sacrifices she's done for him a hundred fold. His next action was just going to be the first. "Eh?" Stella's brows shot up in anger when she noticed the uncovered bowl of soup on the table. "You haven't touched your lunch yet?" "R-Really? My breakfast has barely digested.." James awkwardly stroked his stomach as he lied straight through his teeth. "It's three pm" Stella gave him a su

    James fell silent as he seemed to be digesting what Manager Talia just told him. As for Manager Talia, she silently stood behind him, nervously pursing her lips. Her reason for the sudden august visit was quite simple really. After the Alchemy Competition came to an end, words of James performance travelled all the way back to Green Leaf Gate.. A young Alchemist who could refine a whole furnace of Nirvanic pills? such a talent was rare to come across. Even within those top Sects, geniuses like that were regarded as their ultimate ace in the hole and were always kept in secluded cultivation. However what was even rarer was a genius of such magnitude who appeared to be unaffiliated. As such, the top leaders of the Green Leaf Gate quickly made their move and charged Manager Talia with recruiting him. "So, what do you think?" Manager Talia finally caved in after James continued remaining silent for five minutes and counting. "The offer isn't even generous... It is like mana fallin

    James exhaled sharply as he watched Manager Talia's limo disappear into the horizon. He noticed some of the neighbors peeking through their windows. The area where his mother lived was one of the oldest rural settlements in the town. It was rare for such a fancy looking entourage to visit the place. They even visited Old Lady Stella's house. Were they part of the government who wanted to use this part of town for real estate development? Just as James made to return into the house, his brows creased. "What is it now?" looking over his shoulder, he noticed three vehicles driving through the muddy ground. Their trajectory seemed to be his mother's apartment. "Mr. Krios?" the crease n James expression disappeared when he saw the first person to alight from one of the three fancy vehicles. "Young master Stefflon" Mr. Krios bowed. His tone even more respectful than the last time they met. "What.. How did you find me here?" James never expected the sudden unexpected visit. "We as

    New Sensations villa was one of the top industrialized urban estates within Atlas City. As business hub, the city was the home base of many top companies and with the high rate of real estate development, the city lacked that much rural areas, with plans made to develop the few rural areas remaining. However there was a clear distinction between these industrialized areas in the city and New Sensations villa ranked at the the top of the ladder. Although this estate had only been publicly completed about two years ago, it only took three months for almost half of their units to be sold. The PR was crazy and at a certain point in time, it was the hottest topic to discuss. At that time, owning a unit within New Sensations villa was a sign of superior status.. hell, even the City's Mayor owned one. However for those who owned a property, they were all convinced that the PR around the estate wasn't exaggerated. That was because everything within the estate screamed of high class luxury

    "This way Sir.. and miss..." under the direction of the restaurant staff, Diego and Becca were led into the lobby area of Six Serenades.. As a restaurant in a luxury estate like New Sensations villa, Six Serenades was a business establishment unlike any other outside of the villa. Not only did they offer high quality food, their customer service was top notch. To cater for the need of all customers, the restaurant was split into two segments.. Public and Private. The public area of the restaurant was located at the first floor and anybody could dine in there.. that was if they were loaded enough to pay the exorbitant price for the high quality food services. However the flagship feature of Six Serenade lied in its private themed services. By paying a certain amount of cash as a down payment, a customer would be given a private card. With this card, they could dine within the many countless private rooms located at the upper floor of the establishment. According to rumors, there

    Diego and Becca had just stepped into the first floor of Six Serenades Restaurant, when their taste buds began to water, thanks to the fragrant smell that hung in the air. Diego was in the midst of scanning the place to find an empty table when his brows suddenly shot up in unexpected surprise. "Honey, isn't that your ex husband?" his lips curved. "Huh?" Becca's eyes trailed over where Diego was looking at and her heart nearly skipped a bit. Currently, James and Charlotte were descending the stairs that led to the upper floor of the restaurant, enamored in a quiet conversation amongst themselves. Every once in a while, James would say something funny, causing Charlotte to release a peal of laughter that sounded pleasing to the ears. Seeing James being so cozy with another woman, Becca found her heart drumming loudly and a strange ache began to appear. "I-- let's leave them.." she forced herself not to show too much emotions. She was now married to a high socialite.. James was

    "You!!" upon hearing Diego's slanderous accusations, the scrawny staff immediately shot James a sharp glare. "Is Mr. Sebastian speaking the truth?! you better answer me truthfully!" James scoffed. From the current reaction he was getting from the other party, nothing he would say will hold any tangible weight. The other party was obviously trying to curry some favors with Diego's family so he was more or less guilty in the perspective of the scrawny staff member. "Mr. Ian. You shouldn't lose your cool. If this kitchen boy is as guilty then perhaps you need to resolve this in a more.. private location?" Diego shamelessly tried playing peacemaker. "I apologize" Mr. Ian gave James another sharp look as he made a grabbing motion towards his shoulders. However James easily stepped back, causing the other party to grab empty air. His actions infuriated Mr. Ian even more. "You cheeky bastard! what do you think you are doing?!" The charitable Mr. Sebastian is obviously trying to give

That useless bastard. Since the two years we got married, yesterday night was the first time I have ever given him a kiss on the lips " Layla's brows creased as she didn't bother hiding the disgust on her face."The useless wretch even wanted to consummate our marriage " she added with a shake of the head."Did you?" Becca had with her eyes sparking with interest."What do you think!" Layla smiled sweetly."I don't usually enjoy guessing, but I'll bet that you did?" Becca shrugged her shoulders."Then you don't know me girl " Layla burst into an amused fit of laughter."You didn't?" Becca appeared surprised."But he--""Hmpfh " Lay

    James had revised the kind of excuse he was going to give for his lateness while he was being led to the VIP lounge at the top floor of Silver Gate Restaurant. However upon his arrival, what he never expected to encounter was the scene of Mr. Krios standing on his feet, appearing youthful and healthy. "You!!" Charlotte was the first to notice James presence, causing a scowl to appear on her face. "What do you think you are doing showing your face here?!" she angrily marched towards him, about to land a crisp slap on his face. According to the good Dr. Hamilton, this bastard almost killed her father! to think he'd be shameless enough to show his face!! As a Martial Cultivator, James easily saw through Charlotte's intentions, casually sidestepping which caused the slap to miss his face by a few inches. Charlotte immediately retracted her palms in embarrassment. The bastard dodged her slap! "Ah. Young Friend.. you are here.." Seeing the friendly smile on the other party's face,
