Soon, Heavenly Eye sent back some news. There did seem to be some connection between Joseph Rogers and the Black Lotus Sect, tied to the turmoil from five years ago. Jason immediately thought of Lawrence, and that Evil Doctor, the shameless renegade of the traditional medicine community! He had wondered about this issue before. Joseph Rogers betrayed Lawrence, and the Sanchez family moved to destroy him. But where did this mysterious Evil Doctor come from? He was no ordinary man. But it made sense if he was from the Black Lotus Sect.Perhaps that Evil Doctor was one of them, helping establish Joseph Rogers' domination of Emerald City!Another piece of news surprised Jason somewhat. His eldest brother Justin Wesley had apparently found a bone marrow donor, a tightly guarded secret that had still been discovered. Preparations were underway for a transplant surgery.Still clinging to life? But even if the transplant succeeded, his strange illness could apparently not be completely cu
"You..." Mary Martinez glared furiously. How dare this useless trash threaten her? Damn it all, damn it all!No matter how Jason changed or got rich, in Mary Martinez's eyes, he would always be that useless loser, to come and go at her bidding, with the entire family obeying her every command!Though frightened, she still sneered coldly, "This is my house. The only one getting thrown out is you...don't think you can scare me!"But just then, Grace Diaz returned. Her face was ghostly pale, eyes red as if she had just cried, yet she still walked steadily before them."You thieving wretch, daring to return? Did someone plead for you, so you're back to play the victim? Let me tell you, no one's begging for you today. Give back the money and gem, all of it!""And I'll expose you too. No family will dare hire you as a nanny again. You can forget this profession, and any other!" Mary Martinez jabbed her finger at Grace Diaz, cursing wildly. James Brown was also surprised. This nanny actua
The next moment, Mary Martinez rushed up to her as if terribly wronged, weeping and railing, cursing Jason and Grace Diaz, exaggerating and smearing them. She seemed unable to go on living. But Susan was used to this and only believed a fraction of her mother's words. She then asked Jason what happened. After hearing the full story, Susan's expression shifted. The lost money didn't matter, but that necklace could not be lost again. It was Jason's gift to her, more precious than anything.Seeing Grace Diaz's guilt and self-reproach, Susan quickly consoled, "Aunt Diaz, this isn't your fault. I believe you're innocent." She then helplessly told her mother, "Mom, take out the stuff. Stop this nonsense. I never had Aunt Diaz deliver money, and only we few know the password. If you needed money, why didn't you just tell me? Why do this?"Her first reaction was also that this was her mother's doing, since she pulled this so often. But at these words, Mary Martinez actually trembled in
The Emily before her would only act this way after doing something wrong. Could it not be a misunderstanding? Could it really be...true!"Sorry, Susan... Please forgive us!"Jason was dumbfounded. Forgive? Sorry? What was going on here? He was only getting more confused by her words. This could have been explained in a sentence. No, something was fishy. Did Emily have reservations?He frowned, glancing around. To his shock, there was someone behind Emily - Peter Cook, currently glowering at him."This is..." Seeing this, Susan's expression also turned ugly. Her face changing, she asked, "Emily, what...what exactly are you trying to say? Why apologize to me? Is it a misunderstanding, or...""Susan, stop asking. This is all my fault. I won't disturb you two. I only hope you won't blame Jason. You must wait for me to return, you have to believe me.""Remember, don't blame him. You must believe me!" Emily said with brimming eyes before hurriedly leaving.Hearing this, Susan's pretty fa
He could see Jason's BJJ already had attainments. He was undoubtedly a genius among martial practitioners. Just then, a disdainful snort sounded. "What crappy BJJ, just some old geezers prancing around uselessly. All show and no substance. Boasting about beating three or four people, really vain.""No need for three or four men, my one fist could send you scurrying for your teeth. Some major sect, hah! Boy, becoming his disciple is still worse than joining my Northern Faction. I could have you beat over ten men alone, easy!""Oh? Northern Faction?"Jason looked up to see a bare-armed man swaggering towards them contemptuously. His arms were powerful and muscular, clearly marking him as a martial arts expert. A Northern Faction member? Yet another one from the Northern Faction. It seemed Benjamin Howard was right after all. They had come, albeit separately instead of together.But the old man in white exercise clothes had turned ashen, shocked and furious as he demanded, "You arroga
"Damned worthless soft style still thinks it can beat me? Keep dreaming!" Jeremy raged, exceedingly frustrated. How was he still fighting an old geezer for so long?Jason made a soft sound of approval. There was hope; Jeremy's mind was in disarray. If this continued, Stewart would surely prevail.Indeed, looks could be deceiving! No wonder Steel had praised this man.The more Jeremy fought, the more stifled he felt, miserable beyond belief. Each punch seemed to strike cotton, dissolved by the old man. Surrounding spectators laughed and jeered, shaming him further.That a big strong youth like him still couldn't beat an old man was humiliating beyond endurance. "Damn you, you forced me to this." Jeremy's eyes turned icy cold. Seizing an opening, he suddenly pulled out a dagger from behind, slicing Stewart's wrist as he attacked."What? Argh...despicable, shameless! How can you ambush with a weapon during a martial arts exchange?" Stewart raged.But Jeremy pressed his advantage relentl
"Not good, dodge quickly!" Stewart cried in alarm. He did not believe Jason could match Jeremy at all. The gap was too great for a direct confrontation. "Ignorant brute, allow me to demonstrate what true BJJ is!" Jason declared firmly, expression calm.As the sharp blade descended, Jason remained unruffled, even putting one hand behind his back. He fully intended to defeat Jeremy single-handedly. With a subtle footwork maneuver, he extended one hand at an unhurried pace to intercept Jeremy's wrist."What? This...this kung fu?" Jeremy gaped in disbelief, wondering if his eyes were deceiving him. Such a slow move should not have succeeded. By all logic, his own attack should have connected first!But reality differed from imagination. Jason simply twisted, a crisp snap sounded, and the arm was bent grotesquely into a pretzel shape. Before Jeremy could react, a smooth hip throw sent him crashing heavily onto the hard concrete, screaming in anguish from the pain."Ahhh...my hand...ahhh
He deeply looked down on Jason. If not for him and Susan, their Runhe Medicine Company would be thriving instead of nearly bankrupt. So if he got a chance to viciously humiliate and retaliate against those two, he would go all out!Hearing this, Mr. Flores' face darkened again. Another rude young Brown, it seemed.Old Stewart also frowned in displeasure. "Mr. Gray, are all you Brown young masters this ill-mannered? Nothing but barbed insults, no wonder Mr. Flores was so offended last time." Jason was someone he admired, skilled in martial arts. How could he tolerate such arrogance? His impression of the Brown Family sank even lower!But Jason just said coolly, "No need to bother with him, old Stewart. Just a yapping fly. Since you're fine now, I'll take my leave."He had intended to browse around but Alexander Brown's words reminded him of something. He really was broke now. Mary Martinez had shamelessly taken his Worldwide Black Card, claiming it as hers. The $1 million was kept b
