The night was thick with the smell of damp earth and the cool breeze of the forest, but it was the distant sound of the explosion that held their attention. A brilliant orange glow illuminated the sky far behind them, followed by the low rumble of the blast reverberating through the trees. Calvin, dressed in the nondescript uniform of one of the bodyguards, stood at the edge of the dense undergrowth, his eyes narrowing as he watched the faint plumes of smoke rise in the distance.

His lips curled into a small, satisfied smile. "It worked," he murmured, more to himself than to anyone else. “They took the bait.”

Lizzie, who stood beside him, her breath slightly labored from the tension and the quick escape, glanced at him with a mix of concern and admiration. "That was close," she said, her voice barely above a whisper. "But Calvin... what if they figure it out sooner than we thought? They could already be tracking us."

Calvin nodded, his mind racing as he considered the possibilities. "

    Calvin and his team pushed deeper into the dark forest, their footsteps muffled by the dense undergrowth. Each step was a reminder of the tension weighing on them. The thick canopy above blotted out most of the moonlight, leaving them to navigate by the faint glow of their flashlights. The further they ventured, the quieter the forest became. No birds, no animals. Just the occasional crunch of leaves underfoot and the rhythmic rustling of wind through the trees.The forest seemed to close in around them, the silence pressing on their ears. Calvin, leading the way, had a grim expression. His sharp eyes darted between the shadows, as though expecting something—or someone—to leap out at them at any moment.After what felt like an eternity, the group reached a small clearing. Calvin suddenly halted, his arm rising to signal the others. Lizzie, catching up beside him, looked around, her eyes wide in the eerie half-light."Is this it?" she asked, her voice barely a whisper, as though the fo

  • The Super Doctor Calvin Hudson   There It Is

    In the dimly lit control room, the tension was palpable. The operatives from Han Xin watched the monitors with unwavering focus, their faces illuminated by the soft blue glow of the screens. The forest below was bathed in darkness, a sea of endless trees, but amidst that shadowy expanse, a sudden burst of light flashed across one of the screens. It was brief, but unmistakable—the telltale glow of Calvin activating the amulet.One of the operatives, a man with sharp eyes and a thin smile, leaned in closer, his excitement barely contained. His fingers danced over the keyboard as he zoomed in on the source of the light. "There it is," he whispered, his voice brimming with triumph. "That’s it. The location of the Fountain of Health." He turned his head to the others, his grin widening. "We’ve got them now."Several of his comrades exchanged glances, smirking in satisfaction. Their months of pursuit, the painstaking hours of tracking Calvin and his team, were finally paying off.The leader

  • The Super Doctor Calvin Hudson   We’re Stuck Here!

    Calvin and his group pressed through the dense, suffocating jungle, their steps heavy with urgency. Each crack of twigs underfoot and the occasional rustle of leaves seemed to amplify the tension in the air. The forest loomed around them, thick with vines and towering trees whose canopies blotted out the sky, leaving only fragmented beams of moonlight to guide their way. The heat was oppressive, clinging to their skin like a damp cloak, and the smell of earth and foliage-filled their lungs. Calvin’s heart pounded in sync with the rhythmic pulse of his feet hitting the forest floor. Every second mattered."Keep moving," Calvin barked, his voice hoarse from the strain. He glanced back at the others, their faces glistening with sweat, their breaths coming in ragged gasps. They were all aware of what was at stake—the Fountain of Health was within reach, and the knowledge that it could slip through their fingers was like a knife twisting in Calvin’s chest.Suddenly, Lizzie skidded to a hal

  • The Super Doctor Calvin Hudson   We’ve Found It!

    The operatives of Han Xin fanned out along the narrow ledge, their boots scuffing against the rough stone as they methodically surveyed the area. The wind howled through the canyon, sending gusts of cold air whipping around them, but their movements remained deliberate and focused. Searchlights from the helicopter above cut through the darkness, illuminating the jagged edges of the cliff and casting long, eerie shadows over the treetops below.The leader, a man with sharp eyes and an air of unwavering authority, motioned for his team to spread out. His eyes swept over the edge of the ravine, taking in the dark abyss below. The ground beneath them was barren, devoid of any obvious signs of the Fountain. He narrowed his gaze, the hint of frustration flickering in his expression.“Anything?” he called out, his voice cutting through the wind.One of his men crouched near a cluster of rocks, glanced up and shook his head. “Nothing here, sir. Just rocks and dirt.”Another operative, further

  • The Super Doctor Calvin Hudson   I Don’t Know

    Lizzie sprinted through the thick underbrush, her breath coming in ragged gasps. Sweat poured down her face, dampening her clothes as the humid jungle clung to her skin. She was pushing herself to the limit, every muscle burning with effort, but it didn’t matter. Despite their best efforts, the distance between them and their destination only seemed to grow. The thick canopy of trees and the uneven terrain slowed them down, and in the back of her mind, she could hear the faint, relentless sound of the helicopter still hovering in the distance.“Calvin!” she shouted, her voice strained with desperation. “You better have a plan right now!”Calvin, running beside her, gritted his teeth, his eyes darting ahead as if searching for some last-minute solution. His heart pounded in his chest, not just from the exertion, but from the pressure weighing on his mind. He didn’t have a plan. His usual calm and calculated demeanor was slipping, replaced by the panic of knowing they were about to be t

  • The Super Doctor Calvin Hudson   We’re Alive

    As Calvin’s makeshift cart hurtled toward the edge of the ravine, Lizzie’s eyes widened in panic as she took in the sight ahead. The Han Xin operatives were already descending into the abyss, their ropes and harnesses glinting in the sunlight. The whirring of the helicopter still hummed in the air, and tension crackled in every breath. Lizzie turned to Calvin, desperation seeping into her voice.“Calvin, what now? What are we supposed to do after this?”Calvin clenched his teeth, his mind racing as fast as the cart they were riding. His original plan had only gotten them this far—he hadn’t thought beyond reaching the ravine. Now, faced with the reality of the Han Xin team making their descent, the weight of their situation pressed down on him.He was a doctor, not a killer. There was no way he could let anyone die, even if they were enemies. But the gap between morality and survival was closing quickly. The wind roared in his ears, a reminder of the immense power he had at his fingert

  • The Super Doctor Calvin Hudson   We’re Close

    Calvin wiped the sweat from his brow, the moisture mixing with the mist that hung heavy in the air. The terrain before him was treacherous—damp, uneven, and cloaked in a deep darkness that their meager lights could barely penetrate. The rocky walls of the ravine loomed above them like ancient sentinels, their surfaces slick with moss and vines. The earthy scent of decay, wet foliage, and mossy stone filled the air, making every breath feel thick and humid.He paused, his eyes narrowing as he scanned the shadowy abyss below. The soft, persistent murmur of water echoed faintly from the unseen depths, a constant reminder of the life-giving spring that could be hidden somewhere in the darkness. His gut told him they were close—closer than they had ever been.“The Fountain of Health should be down there," Calvin muttered, almost as if the words were for himself rather than the others. His voice, steady yet laced with tension, was barely above a whisper. "Right at the base of this cliff."L

  • The Super Doctor Calvin Hudson   Wasn’t Human

    The Han Xin explorers moved silently through the ravine, their footsteps barely audible over the damp, spongy earth. The air was thick with moisture, and the sound of trickling water teased them from somewhere deep within the surrounding wilderness. But no matter how they strained their ears or followed the faint gurgling sounds, the water always seemed to slip away, just out of reach.The leader of the group, a stern man with sharp, calculating eyes and a deep scowl etched into his face, stopped abruptly. His frustration was palpable as he clenched his fists by his sides. The other Han Xin members, four in total, looked to him for guidance, their expressions tense and uncertain."Damn it," the leader muttered under his breath, glaring at the ground as if it had betrayed them. His voice echoed faintly in the stillness of the ravine. "We’ve been going in circles. The sound of the water... it keeps shifting, disappearing. This isn't right." He spat into the dirt, his frustration boiling

  • Rebirth of Bacca

    Destroyed buildings from the war greeted Calvin at every step as he walked through the city of Bacca. Debris was scattered everywhere. Barrion—his homeland—was now free from the tyrannical rule of Han Xin... but the remnants of destruction were overwhelming.Calvin's steps halted at a vast field, once known as the city center. Around him, nothing remained but rubble and charred pillars. His eyes swept over the scene, his expression difficult to read."I'll start by rebuilding the houses and structures in this area first," Calvin said."Please do, Sir," replied the President, who stood not far from him, nodding respectfully and giving Calvin the space to do as he wished.Without a word, Calvin stepped forward. He knelt down, pressing his palm against the ground. Instantly, the earth trembled, compacted itself, and began to rise, forming solid buildings with supernatural precision. Wooden elements emerged from the soil, weaving into walls, rooftops, and sturdy pillars, creating rows of

  • The Rise of Barrion's Guardian

    The plane began to shake more violently. Emergency alarms wailed incessantly, making the atmosphere even more tense. Passengers—including two government representatives from Barrion—screamed, some cried, others clung to their seatbelts as if they could save them from death.Meanwhile, Calvin remained calmly seated, though his body shook along with the turbulence. His eyes focused on the window, then on a flight attendant who ran past the cabin aisle in panic.“The cabin's losing pressure! Navigation system failure!” came the pilot’s voice from the cockpit.Calvin slowly stood, walking toward the front, keeping his balance with effort.“Open the door,” he ordered sharply upon reaching the cockpit.“We’re trying!” The co-pilot looked pale. “The main engine is completely dead, we—”“If we panic, we die. Stick to the plan. You head toward the nearest airport for an emergency landing. I’ll help as much as I can—just focus on landing the plane safely.” Calvin stared at the wildly blinking s

  • The Price of Pride

    Calvin’s name suddenly exploded across various social media platforms. A clip of him calmly but devastatingly shutting down the shareholders' arguments during yesterday’s meeting went viral and trended within hours. What impressed the public the most was how Calvin managed to leave Kevin Lang completely speechless after enduring a series of insults. People began praising Calvin even more as a medical god with the heart of an angel.Meanwhile, far from the media spotlight, Kevin was sitting in a treatment room at Lang Hospital. His hands trembled as a nurse finished reattaching his severed pinky. The pain from Calvin’s brutal and unexpected act of cutting off his finger was unbearable—but the most excruciating pain wasn’t in his finger. It was in his pride. Kevin’s ego was shattered by the fact that he had to go to Calvin and beg him to return the severed piece.“This is all that bastard Calvin’s fault, Dad!” Kevin growled, his voice shaking with emotion. “He dared to humiliate me—me,

  • Use The Card!

    Laughter echoed throughout the meeting room. All eyes were fixed on Calvin with judgmental and mocking gazes.“This is the first time I’ve seen a genius doctor turn out to be a mental patient. How could Miss Alana bring someone in the middle of a hallucination phase?” they scolded.“I’m sure that’s just a card he picked up on the street. Shouldn’t you return it to its owner? You won’t be able to use it anyway!” mocked another as they burst into laughter.They brutally trampled on Calvin’s dignity, treating him like a filthy sewer rat that deserved to be a laughingstock.“Hahaha!” Calvin suddenly let out a dry laugh, echoing their cheerful cackles and instantly silencing them in confusion. “You’re laughing at me, but are you sure your money is clean? This card is mine, and the money in it is mine. I use it with peace of mind because it’s clean. But I doubt any of you feel as calm as I do,” Calvin said, throwing their mockery back at them.“No matter how much money is in your fake card,

  • What Could You Do?

    "Perry Pharmacy did something incredibly foolish. After this disaster, what are you going to do to cover our massive losses? We won’t accept just an apology in a situation like this," said one of the shareholders, his voice laced with anger he tried to suppress, though the sarcasm in his tone was hard to miss.That night, the Perry family had gathered for an important meeting. All shareholders and members of the board of directors filled the meeting room seats, their faces gloomy and angry.The atmosphere in the room was unbearably tense, especially for the Perry family, who had now lost face."Can we start this meeting and hear how this madness happened?""The Perry family is completely incompetent at managing a simple business like this. You’ve destroyed our trust and our money. Utterly foolish!"All the fury was directed at the Perry family, prompting Beatrice, James, and Giana to immediately glare at Alana with sharp eyes."This is all Alana’s fault," James hissed. "She’s the one

  • Sell Your Body

    "You cancel the agreement and I will be willing to pay for your losses. I truly have no energy left to keep facing your insane obsession with me, Alana," Calvin said tiredly. "Besides, I never wanted this marriage in the first place."Alana was stunned to hear Calvin's words. She never expected a man like him to be so cruel to her."Don’t joke around, Calvin. How could you possibly afford to cover all my losses if you cancel our marriage agreement?" Alana asked in disbelief."So you still underestimate me even after everything that’s happened, Alana," Calvin sneered. "Is it because I’m poor that you’ve always treated me like dirt—even now? You’ve been so harsh because your obsession with me stems from a sense of superiority over a poor man like me.""That’s not what I meant, Calvin. You misunderstood," Alana said in a panic, trying to explain. "I never looked down on you, no matter your situation. I just want to marry you and leave all the problems in this city behind, that’s all. I c

  • I’ll Pay

    Alana fell silent, disappointed to hear her family so strongly opposed her decision to marry Calvin. She had hoped they would be happy for her and help make her dreams come true.“Aren’t you ashamed to marry a man who was once just your contract husband, sis?” Giana scolded, eyeing Alana skeptically. “Like James said, you're doing something pointless. Just give up. Your engagement was called off, and that alone humiliated not just you, but our whole family in front of all those important guests,” she added sharply.Alana remained silent, her fists clenched tightly, holding back her anger and sadness.“Sweetheart, you should go see Kevin instead of insisting on marrying Calvin again,” Beatrice said gently, her voice calm. “This isn't about the company, it's about you. Instead of forcing yourself to be Calvin’s bride, I want you to marry a man who truly loves you—and I see that in Kevin.”“She’s right. Go see Kevin and talk to him,” James added firmly.“You're unbelievable,” Alana whisp

  • The Obsession

    “Dr. Hudson, there’s a phone call from the city hospital under the name Maxwell Smith. They are requesting your presence,” said one of the administrative staff at Calvin’s clinic.Calvin, who was busy typing a prescription for a patient that he was about to send to the pharmacy, didn’t respond to the staff’s words at all.He appeared deeply focused on his computer, prompting the staff member to remain silent and wait patiently for the right time to speak again.“Dr. Hudson, you’ve received a phone call from the hospital. A patient named Maxwell Smith would like to see you,” the staff repeated.Calvin turned to look at her. “Alright, I’ll go to the hospital. Thank you for letting me know.”“In that case, I’ll go ahead and close the clinic so you can leave comfortably,” she responded cheerfully.She hurried back to her desk while Calvin began preparing to leave.As he stepped out of his office, Calvin first went to the pharmacy to check on the prescription.“Has the last patient receive

  • 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
