Tears welled up in his eyes, blurring his vision as he called out to Albert, his voice trembling with concern and desperation. "Grandpa, are you okay?" he cried out, his words laced with worry.

Meanwhile, Dante's voice cut through the chaos like a beacon of urgency, his tone thick with apprehension as he sought a solution to the dire situation. "We need to do something! What should we do?" he exclaimed, his eyes darting around the room in search of guidance.

However, Kevin's accusatory tone shattered the tense atmosphere, redirecting the focus onto Calvin. His voice dripped with disdain as he pointed an accusing finger at Calvin, assigning blame for the unfolding crisis. "Calvin did something to him! What did you do, Calvin? You bastard! You didn’t cure him, you make things worst! Admit it! You are just a rat who wants Albert Finch’s money!" Kevin demanded, his

"If you're truly confident that the glass is safe, then what's stopping you from proving it?"Kevin's unease became palpable, his facade of certainty beginning to crack under the pressure.Albert tried to make sense all of this. "Are you afraid that it might be poisoned as Calvin said, Dr. Lang?" he questioned, his tone cutting through the silence like a blade.For a fleeting moment, Kevin's hand moved towards the glass, his resolve wavering under the weight of Albert's challenge. However, before he could take a sip, Alana intervened, her voice laced with doubt and suspicion."Hold on a moment," she interjected, her eyes narrowing as she turned her gaze towards Calvin. "How do you know that the glass is poisoned? Could it be that you are the one who placed the toxin at the bottom?The accusation hu

    Calvin's voice carried a tone of genuine concern as he addressed Albert, his regret evident in every word. "I'm truly sorry this happened, Albert," he expressed, his eyes reflecting sincerity. "I hope you can apprehend whoever is responsible swiftly."Calvin's voice carried across the room, a soothing balm amidst the tension that lingered.

Kevin, unable to contain his fury, slammed his fist on the table, the sharp sound echoing through the room.Alana blushed deeply, misinterpreting Calvin's request as a sign of lingering jealousy and a desire to win her back. She cast a sidelong glance at Calvin, her thoughts a whirlwind of confusion and unexpected flattery.Kevin's face was a mask of rage as he leaned forward, his voice a harsh growl. "Even if I don't marry Alana, don't think for a second that she would ever go back to you, Calvin," he spat. "You're just a loser living off the generosity of others. Don't get cocky with the little wealth you have now; it's all from conning rich people like Albert Finch."Calvin stood there, silently enduring the barrage of insults, a serene smile never leaving his face. He knew Kevin's words were meant to provoke, but he remained unshaken, his calm demeanor a stark con

She cast a haughty glance at Christina, convinced that Calvin loved her more than he did Christina.

The room fell silent as he cleared his throat and spoke with his usual authoritative yet warm tone. "Ladies and gentlemen," Albert began, a smile spreading across his face, "I hope you all enjoyed the dinner. I want to extend my gratitude for your presence tonight and for your support. Now, let’s continue our evening with a cocktail party in the mansion's garden.

    Alana, her face flushed with frustration, finally decided she could no longer endure the evening. With a forced smile, she approached Albert, who was mingling with his guests. "Albert, thank you for hosting such a lovely evening, but I'm feeling quite exhausted. I hope you don’t mind if I leave a bit early," she said, her voice tinged with strain.Albert, ever the gracious host, gave her a warm smile. "Of course, Alana. Your health and comfort are most important. Please, take care and get some rest," he replied, patting her shoulder gently.As Alana made her way towards the exit, she cast a sharp, lingering glance at Christina, her eyes filled with a mixture of jealousy and resentment.

    As the night wore on, Christina continued to sip on cocktails, enjoying the relaxed atmosphere and the company of the other guests. She chatted animatedly, her laughter ringing out amidst the evening's festivities. However, as the drinks kept coming, Christina began to lose track of how much she had consumed.Calvin, observing her from a distance, noticed her starting to wobble slightly and her speech becoming more slurred. Concerned, he approached her gently. "Christina, I think you've had enough for tonight. How about we get you home?"Christina pouted, her cheeks flushed from the alcohol. "No, Calvin," she insisted, her words drawn out. "I still want to have fun. Just one more drink."Calvin shook his head, his tone firm but kind. "You've already had more than enough. You can barely stand. It's time to go home."Despite her protests, Calvin managed to guide Christina away from the party. He approached Albert to bid farewell, explaining the situation.

    "Would you like to stay the night?" Christina asked, her face flushed. Her heart was racing. This was the first time Christina had invited a man to stay over at her apartment. It was also the first time she felt the fear of rejection. Usually, no man would refuse her, but this time it felt different. Christina truly wanted Calvin to stay with her tonight."Christina... I can't promise anything about our relationship," Calvin replied, trying to be as gentle as possible to avoid hurting her feelings. He didn't want to ruin their friendship, and he still had a lot to deal with."I know. There’s no ‘us.’ There never has been. Tomorrow, tonight will never have happened," Christina said, moving closer to him."Christina, I think you’ve had too much to drink at the party," Calvin said, concerned.Christina had indeed had a few glasses of alcohol because she didn’t know what else to do at the party. Perhaps she had drunk too much, but she was fully aware of her actions now."We’ll forget abou

Rubbing the sleep from his eyes, he followed the scent, his stomach rumbling in anticipation. Stepping into the kitchen, he found his younger sister, Lizzie, already busy at the stove, a mischievous glint in her eyes."Morning, sleepyhead," Lizzie greeted, flashing a playful grin as she flipped a pancake with practiced ease.Calvin smiled, the corners of his lips curling up in response to her infectious energy. "Morning, Liz. What's cooking?"Lizzie chuckled, her movements graceful as she continued her culinary dance. "Just your favorite – pancakes with maple syrup."Calvin's brows furrowed slightly at the mention of the party. "Are you feeling better now?" he asked, concern lacing his words. "You mentioned having a stomachache yesterday."Lizzie waved a dismissive hand, her laughter tinkling like wind chimes in the morning breeze. "Oh, I'm all good now. Just

  • No Engagement

    "Well, Alana? Should I call them now?" Kevin threatened again."You win this time," Alana said coldly. Then she ended the call and returned the phone to her subordinate with trembling hands.Her heart pounded wildly. Alana repeatedly pounded her chest, trying to get rid of the pain and tightness in her heart, but it was useless—she felt no relief at all."I'll go back to see Calvin. Make sure Kevin doesn't do anything crazy," she instructed her subordinate, her voice choked with restrained tears.With unsteady steps, Alana returned to the ballroom. Her face was grim, and the happy smile that had once graced her lips vanished, replaced by a blank expression."I apologize to all the guests, especially to Calvin… because our engagement must be postponed," Alana announced unexpectedly.Calvin was quite surprised by this sudden decision. Although he actually felt relieved, when he saw the sadness in Alana’s teary eyes, he couldn’t help but feel a mix of pity and curiosity. However, he quic

  • A Diamond Ring and a Dangerous Choice

    The sweet melody of the violin played by the orchestra in the ballroom added a romantic touch to Alana and Calvin’s engagement ceremony."Smile, Calvin… Smile. You promised not to embarrass me at our happy event," Alana whispered with emphasis."Can we just skip to the main event and end this party as soon as possible?" Calvin asked, sounding uninterested."No, we can't. Whether you like it or not, you have to see this event through to the end, and you must always show a happy smile to the guests.""This is more troublesome than I imagined," Calvin muttered coldly before falling completely silent.Reluctantly, Calvin forced a sweet smile onto his face and went through with the engagement ceremony, though he was only doing it because he was a man of his word. He had made a promise, and he intended to keep it."Our engagement party tonight has to be memorable for all the important people I invited, Calvin. I want everyone to remember this day as a moment we experienced with happiness,"

  • The Arrival That Was Anticipated

    "Is there nothing we can do to oppose Alana's decision?" James asked his mother.Tonight was the night of the engagement party that Alana had arranged so lavishly, attended by esteemed guests from high society. The beauty of the decorations, along with Alana’s radiant smile as she busily welcomed her guests, added to the grandeur of the event. However, all the glitz and glamour did not ease her parents’ concerns."There is nothing we can do, James. The party has already begun, everything is already happening. Calvin’s heroic act has spread across the country and been reported everywhere, leaving the Perry family with no reason to oppose Alana and Calvin's remarriage," Beatrice replied.Alana's family attended the event despite their reluctance. Time and again, they let out heavy sighs, looking at their daughter with sadness, struggling to accept her reckless decision."It looks like you need to find a replacement fiancé so this grand party doesn’t go to waste," remarked Kevin Lang, the

  • The Engagement Invitation

    Calvin let out a heavy sigh, his gaze empty as he stared at his small clinic. The wind blew gently, as if urging him forward, encouraging him to step inside and resume what he had long abandoned."Alright, let’s do our best today," he whispered before stepping inside his clinic with determination.The staff, who had been waiting for him, immediately greeted Calvin with enthusiasm. A faint smile formed on his lips as he nodded slightly. "Return to your stations and open the clinic.""Yes!" they answered in unison, full of energy.Without hesitation, they scattered to their respective positions. As soon as the "open" sign was put up, a long line of patients quickly filled the reception area.The clinic was packed, overflowing with patients. The overwhelming number of visitors made the entire staff—and even Calvin himself—feel utterly exhausted."Please close patient registration for today. The clinic is too full," Calvin whispered tiredly to the receptionist."Understood, I will enforce

  • You Will Never Have Me

    Calvin stepped out of Miranda’s house, relieved that one heavy task was finally done. The cool evening air brushed against his face as he walked toward his car. Today had been exhausting, and his mind began to shift toward his clinic—a place that had always been his refuge from life’s chaos. However, his steps halted when he heard a woman’s voice calling his name.“Calvin!”He turned around, his eyes widening at the sight of the person standing there. Alana. His ex-wife, a figure from the past he had worked so hard to leave behind. Reality struck him like a blow—he had completely forgotten about the agreement he had signed to marry her again. That agreement had been in exchange for the immense help Alana provided during a tough time, but now it felt like a weight lurking in the back of his mind.Before Calvin could say anything, Alana ran toward him. In a flash, she threw her arms around him, holding him tightly, leaving Calvin frozen in place.“Calvin,” she said with relief, her voic

  • Empty and Hollow

    As Calvin navigated the quiet streets, the stillness of the city seemed to echo his own sense of exhaustion. His hands gripped the steering wheel loosely, his mind drifting between thoughts of Lizzie and the uncertain path ahead. Suddenly, the silence was interrupted by a soft chime.[Ding!]The familiar sound of the system’s notification brought him back to the present. A faint blue light flickered on the small device attached to his wrist.[New Notification,] the system intoned, its voice calm and measured, a stark contrast to Calvin’s restlessness.“What is it this time?” Calvin muttered under his breath, keeping one hand on the wheel while activating the holographic interface with a quick swipe.The system’s screen illuminated his face as it began its explanation.[Dr. Hudson,] it started, [your recent accomplishments have brought you closer to unlocking the final legacy of your family. Only a few more points are required to access it fully.]Calvin’s brows furrowed. “Inheritance?

  • Returning

    When Calvin arrived home, the weight of the past days pressed heavily on his shoulders. He didn’t bother turning on the lights as he entered, letting the darkness wrap around him like a familiar cloak. The house was silent, almost eerily so, but it offered the solitude he craved.His feet carried him automatically to the backyard. The moon cast a soft glow over the small garden, illuminating the simple headstone that marked Lizzie’s resting place.Calvin approached the grave and knelt down, his fingers brushing against the cool stone. For a moment, he simply sat there, the night air still and heavy around him.“I did it, Liz,” he said softly, his voice cracking under the weight of his emotions. “It’s over. San Wang is defeated, and the war is finished. Barrion can finally rebuild.”He paused, staring at the ground as memories of Lizzie flooded his mind. Her laughter, her courage, the way she always seemed to know the right thing to say.“I hope you’re proud of me,” Calvin whispered, h

  • The Hero

    Calvin’s journey back to Nooria was uneventful, but his mind was anything but calm. The weight of his actions in Bacca lingered heavily in his chest. Despite his victory, he felt no triumph—only exhaustion and the nagging thought that the peace he had brokered might be temporary.When the plane touched down in Nooria, the first thing Calvin noticed was the unusual bustle of activity at the airport. As he descended from the aircraft, he was met with silence—a heavy, anticipatory silence that made him pause.A crowd had gathered, and Calvin froze as he realized their eyes were fixed on him. Faces reflected a range of emotions: awe, gratitude, and disbelief. Some whispered to one another, others simply stared. Then, slowly, one person began clapping.The solitary applause rippled through the crowd like a spark igniting dry kindling. Within moments, the entire gathering erupted into cheers and applause, the sound filling the air with a roar of gratitude and admiration.“Calvin Hudson!” so

  • The War is Over

    Calvin’s chest heaved as he faced San Wang once more, their weapons gleaming in the fading sunlight. The battlefield was eerily silent, save for the faint hum of San Wang’s blade and the rasp of Calvin’s labored breathing. The earlier clash had pushed both warriors to their limits, and the tension between them crackled like a storm on the brink of eruption.San Wang’s smirk returned as he lunged forward, his blade slicing through the air with deadly precision. Calvin parried, but the force of the attack sent him stumbling back. San Wang pressed his advantage, raining down a series of blows that Calvin barely managed to block. Each strike forced Calvin closer to the edge of the helicopter platform, where the abyss below waited hungrily.“You’ve fought valiantly, Guardian,” San Wang sneered, his blade locking against Calvin’s air-forged sword. “But your strength wanes. This ends now!”With a sudden twist, San Wang disarmed Calvin, sending his shimmering blade shattering into the ether.
