Justin plopped down on a nearby stool, making no move to take action yet. He took out a gold nugget and ground it into a fine powder directly in his hand. Though mystifying to watch, with his Steel Body and formidable strength, Justin could just manage it. Once the gold was reduced to dust, he approached Cole Ross again.Madison watched on in mingled curiosity and concern. "Mr. Wilson, what are you doing? You're not really going to harm my husband, are you? Please spare him, I'm begging you.""Now now Auntie, no more nonsense. I'm trying to save him. No matter what you see, don't panic and keep holding him down. It could get dangerous otherwise."Justin said no more after that. He simply took the gold powder and poured it directly into Cole Ross's nostrils. The sight made everyone's blood run cold - this was real gold, not chocolate! Inhaling it would clog the airway and potentially prove fatal!Just as Mia and her mother moved to stop Justin, the golden dust seemed to get absorbed so
"You really felt nothing? Impossible. Let me ask you, haven't you been placing more importance on money lately? Feeling like you don't have enough? And I bet the Owens offered you some benefit to make you agree to the marriage deal, right? Now, do you dare tell me your true inner thoughts?"Justin's blunt questions stemmed from knowing the Money Worms could influence one's mind, making them increasingly greedy. This greed arose from the worm's own craving for wealth.According to the System, on the Super Rich Planet the worms were fed with money. Deprived of it, they would make endless demands - the root of avarice.Cole Ross fell silent, for Justin's words cut straight to the heart of him. He too wondered if he had grown far too grasping, constantly thinking of how to earn more these days.Seeing Cole Ross's reaction, Justin had no interest in interrogating him further. He simply turned and left without another glance. Mia longed to call out to the departing man, but the words stuck
Upon hearing this, Noah was finally unable to restrain himself any longer. But now he didn't have a phone, so there was no way for him to make a call. For a moment he was so angry he turned red, sitting there helplessly as he continued to defend his father."It's useless, completely useless, yet you still dare invoke Mr. Wilson's name? If you know Mr. Wilson then I know God. I think you're just here scamming handouts."At this moment Justin could no longer endure it. He shoved the door open and charged into the room. Before the nurse could react, he kicked her straight in the stomach, knocking her to the floor where she writhed, unable to get up.The woman was caught off guard and had no time to respond before Justin grabbed her hair and yanked her up. He slapped her across the face, instantly leaving several finger marks on her cheek as blood trickled from the corner of her mouth. Half of her face was badly swollen - she looked utterly pathetic."I am Mr. Wilson. What's wrong with th
Suddenly the doctor charged over and snatched the phone, smashing it to the floor. The expensive, diamond-encrusted custom phone shattered into pieces.After this, the doctor grabbed Justin by the collar and arrogantly demanded, "Are you deaf, boy? I'm talking to you! You dare ignore me and try to make a call?""Oh, you wanted to call the cops, didn't you? Well let me tell you, even if you bring them here, I'm not afraid. You came and caused trouble on my turf, even daring to hit people. Even if the cops show up, it's you they'll arrest, not me!""What's the matter, out of tricks? Weren't you acting so tough just now? Didn't you say you'd call Mr. Wilson to take care of us? Why apologize now? It's too late for that. If you don't kneel and beg forgiveness today, don't even think about leaving in one piece.""Brother-in-law, don't let them off so easy. I already said if they don't kneel and apologize today, I won't let them go. They'll pay for hitting me, I'll make sure of it."The nurs
Before they could finish, the Dean kicked them away."You scumbags have really screwed me over this time. Do you even know who you were cursing at? Forget it, no point telling you. I'll deal with you after I resolve things over there."He scurried over to Justin, face plastered with smiles and an extremely deferential attitude."Mr. Wilson, I'm terribly sorry for this incompetent staff causing you such grief. I apologize profusely and hope you can be the bigger man and not blame me.""Ha ha, Dean Scott is blameless! It wasn't you who wronged me. I certainly won't hold it against you, but your staff selection is rather poor, letting this riffraff in. Let me think - what did I say before leaving urgently this morning? Didn't I emphasize to care properly for the two patients? And I gave you a large sum, correct? You know all this!""Yet see what I come back to find? If not for coming on a whim, I might have missed this spectacle today! Since your hospital is so irresponsible, I'll have t
The dean apprehensively approached and remained in an obsequiously low posture, even more reverent than before his father. Yet Justin still did not react, refusing to even look at him. The dean fretted anxiously, at a complete loss regarding what to do. Mr. Wilson was clearly intent on making a scene. This was a massive headache.With no better options left, the dean called in the two offenders. They entered cautiously, heads bowed in meekness, not daring to even glance at Justin, let alone shout or lay hands on him as before."Mr. Wilson is here now. Say what you must directly to him. I cannot shield you any longer!""Mr. Wilson, I sincerely apologize. It was my fault, my egregious fault, to look down on you and lay hands on you and the elder. I fully realize my error now. I implore you to be merciful and spare my life."The nurse was babbling in fright, bowing repeatedly, just short of kneeling. Her expression oozed total obsequiousness down to her bones."Why, nurse, so polite toda
"No, no, Mr. Wilson, you jest. Everyone knows you're Nova City's famous tycoon. My paltry assets can't compare. I actually have no relationship with this woman. Her sister and I divorced long ago, so she's not my sister-in-law anymore. Please seek compensation from her alone, Mr. Wilson. I sincerely apologize for offending you earlier. I will willingly slap myself as punishment. Please be merciful and spare me, as I truly had nothing to do with your phone."Upon hearing this, the nurse finally lost all hope. She had no one left to rely on. Her so-called brother-in-law was a joke. But it was understandable – no one would willingly face this predicament with her.Just as Justin prepared to deal with the wretched pair, another doctor rushed in anxiously. It was the one who had returned with Dean Scott earlier. But now his face was filled with alarm, forehead drenched in sweat, as if some terrible event had occurred."Dean, quick, it's bad! The patient in Ward 3, Bed 16 has suddenly deter
Seeing his earnest attitude, Justin did not push further. He followed Dean Scott out of the OR and back to the office.The two wretched offenders still awaited them. Naturally, since Mr. Wilson had not dismissed them, neither dared to leave. That would be seeking death.Upon returning, Justin glanced at them and coldly remarked:"Anxious by now? Why didn't you two leave earlier? Such a fine chance. Had you slipped away, I couldn't have found you anymore and there would be no more trouble. "The dean responded deferentially with trembling:"You jest, Mr. Wilson. We did not dare leave without your word, and we know we've committed a grave mistake. You may punish us as you see fit. But we truly cannot produce so much money. Perhaps we could just forget the whole matter?""Forget it? Keep dreaming. You admit wrongdoing, but do you realize how dire the situation was earlier? Without Dean Scott and the doctors urgently intervening, the elder may have died.Aside from that, you broke my phon
