Calvin received his last patient for the day. The hours had flown by, and now it was already late into the night. A man entered, his face etched with worry. "Good evening, Doctor. I’ve been having trouble breathing at night," he said, his voice tinged with anxiety.

"Please, have a seat," Calvin responded, gesturing to the examination chair. As the man sat down, Calvin began his scan, his powers allowing him to examine the man's body in intricate detail. He focused, scanning for any abnormalities, but found nothing seriously wrong. Aside from some minor issues like occasional acid reflux and signs of sleep deprivation, the man appeared to be in good health.

Calvin's brow furrowed as he finished the scan. "You’re healthy," he said, meeting the man's eyes. "There's nothing in your body that should be causing severe breathing problems. Are you sure you’re not leaving anything out?"

The man, whose name tag read "Daniel," looked taken aback. He shifted uncomfortably in his seat. "I... I did

    Calvin walked through the clinic, thanking each member of his staff for their hard work. "Make sure you all get enough rest," he reminded them. "Don't forget to stick to your shifts."One of the nurses, Emily, looked at him with concern. "Dr. Hudson, we've all been rotating our shifts, but you've only taken two short breaks all day. Aren't you exhausted?"Calvin smiled, though fatigue was evident in his eyes. "I am tired, but I'll be fine. Thank you for your concern. I'll see you all tomorrow."As Calvin left the clinic, he got into his luxurious car, the interior a comforting blend of leather and modern technology. As he drove home, the memory of Lizzie from the previous night surfaced in his mind. Her body floating above her bed, bathed in a strange green light, had been alarming. Calvin knew he had to make sure she was truly okay.He dialed Lizzie's number, holding the phone with one hand while steering with the other. The phone rang a few times before Lizzie picked up."Hey, Lizzi

    In the middle of the night, Calvin woke up abruptly, thoughts of Lizzie still swirling in his mind. He quietly got out of bed and tiptoed to Lizzie's door, pressing his ear against it to listen for any unusual sounds. There was nothing but the gentle rhythm of her breathing. He sighed in relief and returned to his room, his mind racing with plans to find a way to temporarily take the pendant from Lizzie.Calvin lay awake for a while, thinking about the pendant and its potential dangers. He needed a good reason to ask Lizzie for it without alarming her. Eventually, sleep claimed him again, though it was a restless and uneasy slumber.The next morning, Calvin awoke to the smell of breakfast cooking. He got up and went to the kitchen, where he found Lizzie bustling about, looking healthy and cheerful. The sight of her well-being brought a smile to his face and a sense of relief to his heart."Good morning," Calvin greeted, his voice still groggy from sleep."Good morning, big brother," L

    Calvin nodded, though inside he was seething. "Of course. I’ll do whatever it takes to get this sorted out."As the health inspectors began their work, Calvin stepped aside, pulling out his phone to call Tina. "Tina, we have a situation. The Department of Health is here, and we need to comply with their inspection. Please tell all the patients that we are closed for today. Can you ensure all the staff are prepared and have all our documentation ready?"Tina's voice was steady. "Got it, Dr. Hudson. I'll handle everything on my end."Calvin hung up, taking a deep breath. He glanced at the crowd, still being held back by security. Among the faces, he spotted a man who seemed oddly familiar. It was Daniel, the man who had pretended to be a patient the previous day. Calvin's eyes narrowed. He had a feeling this was no coincidence.Determined to clear his name and keep his clinic open, Calvin knew he had to play by the book and cooperate fully. He approached Cynthia again. "Is there anythin

    Calvin's heart sank, a heavy weight settling in his chest, but he maintained his composure. "May I see the email?" he asked calmly, though his voice held a slight tremor. Cynthia handed him the tablet, her expression a mix of professionalism and sympathy. Calvin took it, his eyes scanning the official message. Each word seemed to blur into the next, but the gravity of the situation was unmistakable. Someone had acted swiftly and decisively to undermine his practice."There's got to be a mistake," Calvin said, handing the tablet back to Cynthia. "These licenses were all valid and properly obtained. There must be some misunderstanding." Cynthia nodded, though her demeanor remained stern. "I understand your frustration, Mr. Hudson. However according to this email, you need to close your clinic until you can regain the proper permissions. There’s nothing we can do about it right now."Calvin felt a surge of frustration but knew arguing wouldn't help. He took a deep breath, trying to stead

    The police approached Calvin and Christina with serious expressions etched on their faces. "Mr. Hudson, we've found no fingerprints of yours on the package," one officer said, his voice measured and calm. "It seems someone used your name irresponsibly."Calvin nodded, a mixture of relief and frustration washing over him. He glanced at Christina, who looked equally relieved but still shaken. "Did you find any other fingerprints?" Calvin asked, trying to maintain his composure.The officer shook his head. "Whoever did this was very careful. They likely used gloves. There's no traceable evidence on the package."Both Calvin and Christina sighed in unison, the tension of the situation palpable. The officer then turned to Christina, his eyes sympathetic. "Ms. Johnson, do you have any enemies? Or perhaps, Mr. Hudson, do you have any enemies who might target you through her?"Calvin's mind immediately went to Kevin Lang. "I have a personal conflict with Dr. Kevin Lang. However, I don’t know

    Lionel and Kevin Lang sat in the sprawling garden of the Lang family mansion, sipping tea and sharing a rare moment of camaraderie. The meticulously landscaped grounds, with their perfectly trimmed hedges and blooming flower beds, seemed to bask in the duo's shared sense of triumph. Their laughter echoed through the serene setting, a testament to their recent successes and devious plans.Kevin leaned back in his ornate, wrought-iron chair, a satisfied grin spreading across his face. He twirled his teacup slowly, savoring the moment. "Our plan is working perfectly, Father. Calvin can't open his clinic again. We've successfully shut him down," he declared, his voice filled with smug satisfaction.Lionel nodded, a proud smile lighting up his face as he took another sip of his tea. "Indeed, Kevin. It was a brilliant plan. With my influence at the health department, they'll be too intimidated to grant Calvin his licenses again. We've ensured his downfall," Lionel said, his tone brimming wi

    As Kevin and Lionel savored their tea in the expansive garden, their moment of shared victory was interrupted by the sudden ringing of the doorbell. The sound echoed through the mansion, breaking the tranquil ambiance of their celebration. A few moments later, a butler appeared, bowing slightly before delivering the news."Sir, there are two police officers at the door. They wish to speak with Mr. Kevin Lang," the butler reported, his tone respectful but tinged with curiosity.Kevin's brow furrowed in surprise. "What do they want?" he asked, a hint of irritation creeping into his voice.The butler shook his head. "They didn't specify, sir. They only mentioned that they need to speak with you."Kevin exchanged a quick glance with Lionel, whose face had hardened with concern. "I'll meet them in the living room," Kevin said, standing up and brushing invisible dust from his suit.Lionel's voice followed him, firm and commanding. "Kevin, don’t tell me you have any issues with the police."

    Lionel sighed deeply, the weight of their schemes settling heavily on his shoulders. He looked at Kevin, his eyes sharp with a mixture of concern and resolve. "Good. The last thing we need right now is to be tangled up with the police."Kevin nodded confidently, though the tension in his jaw betrayed a lingering worry. "This is a false accusation, Father. Rest assured, I have no connection to any of this. Someone is trying to divert our focus, but it won't work."Lionel gave a curt nod, his expression softening slightly as he placed a reassuring hand on Kevin's shoulder. "I believe you. Just ensure that nothing more comes of this. We can't afford any missteps."Kevin smiled, though it was more a determined grimace. "Don't worry, Father. I'll handle it."Lionel watched his son for a moment longer, then turned and walked away, his mind already shifting to the next part of their plan. Kevin stood there for a moment, taking a deep breath and steadying himself. He needed to stay focused.A

  • Dream

    The night air felt cold, piercing Calvin's skin even though his body was wrapped in a thick, warm blanket. The chill came from a dream slowly dragging him back to a childhood he had nearly forgotten.In his dream, Calvin stood in the hallway of his old house. The white walls had begun to yellow, and the carpet on the floor looked worn. He heard the soft laughter of his younger self, probably around seven years old. Moments later, he saw little Calvin running around aimlessly before he collided with a young woman carrying a cup of tea."Calvin, don't run around the house! It's dangerous if this hot tea spills on you," the woman gently scolded. Her face was warm. Her hair was loosely tied back, and her eyes looked at Calvin with a tenderness that always made him feel safe.Mom... adult Calvin whispered in his heart. His blood rushed at the sight of his mother and hearing her voice again—the voice that had long disappeared from his memory—filling his chest with a tight, aching longing."

  • It Should’ve Exploded

    A subordinate knelt before President Lee, the supreme leader of Han Xin, who sat on his throne and looked down at the man with a haughty expression. “What news do you bring me this time?” he said mockingly.The atmosphere in the room was suffocating and tense, filled with the cruel aura that emanated from President Lee—even when the tyrant wasn’t committing any atrocities.“Forgive me, my lord. Calvin is still alive, and he survived the plane crash with ease,” the man explained timidly.President Lee’s face immediately hardened. His eyes darkened, and his fists clenched tightly. “You couldn’t even kill a cockroach?” he hissed sharply. “Are you sure you did your job properly?”The subordinate didn’t dare answer directly. He bowed even lower, almost as if trying to disappear into the floor. His knees trembled violently, and cold sweat began to drip from his temples. His breath was ragged, unable to bear the burning gaze of President Lee. His courage shrank to nothing—even though the Pre

  • 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
