THE GREAT GENERAL I Need The Best Ward in This Hospital
Tony was in a taxi heading to Vermaen Hospital.Earlier, he had asked Jade to call an ambulance to take Sasha there. It was much faster than waiting for him to come home first."Driver, can you go faster? I'll pay double," said Tony.The taxi driver looked at him confusedly. His passenger's appearance was ordinary; he didn't look like a rich person.But just to pay double the taxi fare, his passenger should be able to afford it. He would charge him later before letting him get off."Alright, sir," said the taxi driver.The taxi sped up, overtaking the cars in front of it.In the passenger seat, Tony was tapping the tip of his shoe against the frame of the seat in front of him.He was waiting for a reply from Jade. He hoped the ambulance his wife had called had already arrived at the hospital.And the message from Jade finally arrived a few minutes later.[Mom is being treated in the ER. I'm waiting for her alone in the waiting room. Are you still on the way? How much longer will it ta
THE GREAT GENERAL The Inevitable Commotion
Tony snorted again, stepping forward to challenge the tall man. He showed no fear whatsoever."Move aside. I'm giving you a chance to leave unscathed," Tony said.The atmosphere in front of the administration counter became tense. Tony looked up at the tall man with fiery eyes.The counter-officer thought Tony and the man were going to fight. She discreetly pressed the emergency button under his desk dan called the hospital manager.However, the feared fight did not happen. Not yet. What happened was the tall man burst into laughter.He put his hands on his hips and shook his head. His gaze at Tony was utterly condescending."Hey, beggar, let me tell you something. Before you threaten someone, you need to understand your situation, to realize your social status. Don't you know who you're dealing with? I'm Stefano, the eldest son of the Gordiani family, and my girlfriend here, Gloria, is the only child of the Yairmann family. Even a poor man like you must know these two families, don't
THE GREAT GENERAL Security, Take Them Out!
The woman wearing a doctor's coat approached with firm steps.Although she was petite, a strong and oppressive aura radiated from her body. Anyone who saw her would think she was a tough woman."Security, why are you just arriving? You should have handled this commotion from the start!" said the woman."We apologize, Ms. Carol," replied one of the security guards. He and the other guard were almost at the administration counter.The petite Carol finally stopped in her tracks. With her hands on her hips, she looked at Stefano and Tony in turn."I'm sure you two are grown men. And as grown men, I'm sure you can use your common sense well. And of course, I'm also sure you know the unwritten rule that fighting is prohibited in a hospital environment," Carol remarked.Tony stared at Carol without blinking once. Stefano took advantage of this moment to release Tony's grip on his neck."Oh my God, Stefano! Are you okay?" Gloria approached her boyfriend.Stefano coughed while holding his neck
THE GREAT GENERAL Tony's Oral Agreement With Carol
The breathtaking view before him momentarily stunned Tony.He then lifted his face, and he saw a woman who, from the wrinkles on her face, seemed no longer young. Perhaps in her late 30s.The fact that a woman her age had a curvy body and firm breasts showed how regularly and diligently this person exercised."Your clothes are wet. Try drying them with this," said the woman, unzipping her bag and pulling out a tissue, offering it to Tony.Tony took two sheets of tissue, using them to remove the remaining liquid that clung to his shirt.It wasn't much use, though. He had to clean the beverage stain on his shirt with clean water and then dry it with a hair dryer."I'm really sorry. I didn't mean to," said the woman again."It's okay. Not a big deal," Tony replied.He again took two sheets of tissue offered by the woman. For the second time, his eyes briefly focused on the woman's cleavage."What's wrong, Claire?" asked someone who appeared from behind the curvy woman.Tony stared at the
THE GREAT GENERAL Tony vs. Esther
"How dare you yell at me! Don't you realize who you are, huh? Remember, our levels are vastly different. I'm a noble and you're a commoner. You should be kneeling before me right now!"Esther was furious. She had never been yelled at by anyone. She was a respected and feared lady boss in her office.Now, a man she considered useless like Tony dared to yell at her loudly. How rude he was!"So what if you're a noble and I'm a commoner? Do you think that gives you the right to force my wife to kneel before you? Do you think I'll just stand by and watch the woman I love be treated so poorly, huh?!""You!!"Tony's response was completely unexpected to Esther. Who would have thought this worthless son-in-law would have such courage?"Stand up, Jade. You shouldn't be kneeling like this."Tony approached Jade and tried to get her to stand up. However, Jade brushed his hand away."What's wrong, Jade?""I'm doing this for you, Tony.""Eh? For me?""Yes, for you. For us."Tony looked at Jade in
THE GREAT GENERAL Stood Still Like A Statue
Esther laughed again arrogantly."Oh my, Tony. Who did you just call? A doctor in this hospital? You asked her to come here?" Esther asked."Yes. She will explain to you about the cost of Mom's treatment and care," Tony replied.Again, Esther laughed. Her laughter grew louder and more unrestrained. She even shook her head and held her stomach."Jade, your husband is really suffering from a delusional disorder. You should have him checked by a psychiatrist or psychologist here," Esther mocked.Then she looked at Tony again, saying, "Who do you think you are, Tony? You're calling a doctor in this hospital to come here as if this hospital is yours. Should I call you 'Your Highness'?"The mocking smile that Esther displayed made her face look bad. She looked like the main antagonist in second-rate serial films.Tony remained silent, no longer provoked as before. Carol was on her way. He just needed to wait.But Jade wasn't as calm as him. Although she no longer doubted Tony's ability to h
THE GREAT GENERAL Thank You For Always Defending Me
"Jade?"The one who just threw a shoe at Esther's face was Jade.This was something that Tony had never imagined, so he stared at his wife with wide eyes.Jade was now standing next to Tony. Claire approached Esther with a panicked face, helping Esther to stand up."Aunty, I've been trying to give in, sacrificing my dignity, but you've crossed the line," said Jade."I know you hate my husband, but that doesn't mean you can do whatever you want to him. You have no right to humiliate Tony, Aunty!" she continued.Tony's mouth was open. He looked at his wife in awe.Jade always defended him when he was criticized or insulted by his family members, but this time Jade's defense was harsh.She openly challenged her own aunt, the eldest child in the Robertson family.Earlier, Tony was disappointed because Jade let him kneel in front of Esther. Now, he was proud because his beloved wife showed that she was not afraid of Esther."How dare you, Jade! How could you throw a shoe at my face?! Are y
THE GREAT GENERAL Something Wrong With Josephine
"Dad, why did you suddenly slap Tony? What did he do wrong this time?" Jade protested."Shut up, Jade. You don't know anything," Josh replied.Tony slowly turned his head. His left cheek felt a bit sore.For some reason, his father-in-law seemed to enjoy slapping him."Go home now! It's your turn to watch the house!" Josh yelled at Tony.Tony wanted to say something in his defense, but he was tired.Besides, he was in a hospital right now. He didn't want to cause a scene, especially since it was already night."Jade, I'm going home," said Tony."You're going home alone? Let me accompany you," Jade replied, getting up from her chair."You stay here, Jade. I have something to discuss with you," Josh interrupted."But, Dad...""I said you stay here. Let him watch the house alone."Jade looked at her father with her shoulders dropped. When Josh was as adamant as this, there was nothing she could do."It's okay, Jade. I'll go home alone. Let me know if anything happens," Tony said, giving

My Decision Won't Change
Tony and Jade, who were close to the bedroom door, stopped walking and turned their bodies 45 degrees, turning to look at Tiffany with confused faces."What do you mean, Grandma?" Tony asked, raising one eyebrow."I said you can't leave until I tell you my decision," Tiffany replied."What other decision is there? Isn't it clear?"Tony turned his body until he was fully facing Tiffany. Jade did the same as her husband."Starting tomorrow, Jade will be working at PLS Group and holding a strategic position. She proved to you that she can handle your challenge. And she has told you that she rejects your offer and request to help manage your family business. Up to this point, everything should be clear, right?"Tony said it in a slightly raised and arrogant tone. His facial expression and gaze showed that he was quite annoyed.Tiffany glanced at Tony for a moment, then turned her eyes back to Jade and asked, "Are you sure about this decision, Jade? Are you sure you want to rebel like this
I Win The Bet
Tiffany was in her room, sitting in her wheelchair facing the window.The window curtains were pulled back halfway, making sunlight from outside enter her room, some of it hitting her face.It was clear that Tiffany was seriously thinking about something.Knock! Knock!"They are here, Madam," said Catherine, her loyal maid, from outside the room."Bring them in," said Tiffany.The bedroom door was opened and pushed inward, and Catherine entered followed by Jade and then Tony. Slowly, Tiffany turned her head and turned her wheelchair. Catherine quickly approached Tiffany and helped her so that she and her wheelchair were now fully facing Jade.Jade was currently wearing an office suit that made her look stunning in Tiffany's eyes. A knee-length cream-colored skirt, a tight white inner combined with a blazer that was also cream-colored. Jade's glasses, as well as her hair, which was mostly tied in a ponytail at the back, made her look intelligent."Grandma," Jade greeted, nodding.Tiffa
Jade's Mixed Feeling
Jade stepped out of Hayley's office with mixed feelings. On the one hand, she felt a satisfying joy at finding herself now working at a giant company like PLS Group, holding a strategic position. On the other hand, she was worried, this sudden good thing felt like the beginning of bad things that would come to her later.After all, wasn't this illogical? Was she really recruited by Hayley to be the head of a new division at PLS Group that handles web novels? Wasn't she just having a beautiful dream right now?Those feelings and thoughts were still circling her as she descended in the elevator. After the elevator arrived on the ground floor and the door opened, she paused for two seconds before finally stepping out. It felt like part of her consciousness was wandering off somewhere.In the lobby, near the reception desk, Jade saw Tony. Her husband seemed to be waiting for her. Immediately, she quickened her pace, approaching Tony."How was it? Everything good?" Tony asked casually, rai
Something Good
The next day, at Vermaen Hospital..."Are you ready?" Tony asked, having just entered Josephine's hospital room."Just a minute. I'll have a drink first," Jade replied, taking her tumbler from the bedside table and gulping it down."Where are you two going anyway?" Josephine asked; in the patient's bed, she was sitting with her back leaning against the headboard, playing a game on her phone."Watch out, don't drag my daughter into trouble again!" Sasha said sharply.Tony smirked slightly, saying, "You guys can relax. Today, I'm going to take Jade to a good place. Later this afternoon when she sees you again here, you'll hear good news from her directly."Jade had finished drinking and was now closing her tumbler. She glanced at Tony with the corner of her eye. Her face was full of questions."Well, whatever it is, be careful. You know what I mean, Tony?" Josephine said.Tony didn't answer, just raised one eyebrow."Alright, let's go. It's getting late. Don't let us be late," Jade said
Punishment and Decision
Bernard's face instantly turned pale. Tony intended to punish him? What kind of punishment did he mean?"You still remember everything you said in your daughter's hospital room, right, Mr. Valmont?" Tony asked, moving closer to Bernard.Bernard instinctively backed away. A heavy feeling of fear enveloped him.How could he not? Right now, in front of him, Tony's figure suddenly looked bigger, and it was because Tony was letting some of his war god aura out of his body, blazing like a black fire.And not only that, Tony's gaze was so cold. He looked like a cold-blooded killer ready to kill his target."W-w-which one? W-w-what did I say to you back then?"Suddenly, Bernard started to stammer. He was surprised himself when he heard his voice.Tony smiled, but his gaze remained cold. He said, "Well, whether you remember it or not, it doesn't matter. It won't change anything. Right now, here, I'm going to give you the punishment you deserve."Bernard's eyes widened. He saw the black flames
A Man With Integrity
Jessica parked her car outside the hospital. With a firm and forceful gesture, Jessica asked Tony to get into her car first. Tony did so with a bored face. Jessica got in through the right door and then closed the car door and locked it."Remember, like I said earlier, this will be our last conversation. So, whatever it is you want to talk to me about, I suggest you finish it right now," Tony said.Jessica turned to look at Tony, finding Tony staring straight ahead. He didn't seem interested in listening to anything she was going to say.But Jessica didn't care. She had wanted to discuss this for a long time. This was the best moment she had so far."As you might have guessed, this is about Michelle," Jessica began."The other day I told you that she tried to end her life by throwing herself into the sea, right? Well, she almost succeeded."I say 'almost' because her heart did stop beating for a few moments. Luckily, with my basic medical knowledge, I managed to give her artificial re
This Is Insane!
Bernard Valmont was truly shocked to hear what Tony said. He fell silent for a moment, stunned and looking stupid. But then, he thought that Tony was just bluffing him, because when he thought about it again, what Tony said didn't make sense. So he smirked and laughed. “You bastard! You're trying to play me, huh! How dare you! You think I believe your bullshit?” Bernard scoffed. Tony raised one eyebrow, looking at Bernard strangely. He released his grip on Bernard's left shoulder and pushed Bernard's back with his foot. Bernard fell and his forehead briefly touched the dry and slightly hot hospital floor. "Shit! You're a fucking bastard! You fucking crossed the line, you know that?!" Bernard cursed, glaring at Tony with a flushed face. Of course, Tony didn't care. He just smirked slightly at the corner of his lips. He rubbed the soles of his shoes as if he had just stepped on dog poop. Seeing what Tony was doing, Bernard was really furious. Holding his leg that Tony had broke
Arrghh! My Leg!
Even though Bernard had given his orders clearly, none of the police officers approached. They remained in their respective positions, as if they were waiting for the real order. Of course, this made Bernard unhappy. Would these cops only arrest Tony if the one giving them the order was their commander? It was ridiculous if that was the case! Sweep! Bernard pulled back his robe, taking out the pistol he had hidden under it. He cocked the pistol, then pointed it at Tony. "It's okay if you don't want to arrest him right away. I'll cripple him so he can't escape when your commander arrives," Bernard sneered. Jessica turned and looked at Bernard anxiously. She didn't know Bernard Valmont, but it seemed like he was crazy enough. He could actually shoot Tony in front of these cops. Sometimes people who are too rich can act irrationally and not think about the consequences of what they do. "Tony..." Before Jessica could finish her sentence, Tony suddenly stepped forward, acting
Shit! We're Too Late!
Tony couldn't believe his eyes. Jessica was standing there, and the way she’d walked straight up to him after stepping off the elevator told him she was here for him. “Tony, there’s something you need to know,” Jessica said, her voice serious. Tony stared at her, trying to process this sudden appearance. “Ma’am, please back away. We’re trying to secure this individual. He’s dangerous,” one of the security guards surrounding Tony said. Jessica glanced at the guard coldly, then ignored him. “Ma’am, please stop right there!” another guard warned. She ignored him again. One of the guards was reassigned from guarding Tony to blocking Jessica. This time, her progress stopped. “Ma’am, for your own safety, please stop approaching and let us—” Whack! Before the guard could finish his sentence, Jessica unleashed a lightning-fast kick, a move straight out of a taekwondo textbook, that landed squarely on his neck. The guard crumpled to the ground, unconscious. The other four
