She felt as if she had committed some sort of taboo and was trembling slightly. Seth fetched a blanket from the side and covered Lucy with it, asking, "Where's Alaska? Where did she go? Why can't I reach her on the phone? Did something happen?"Lucy regained her senses and sighed. "You shouldn't ask. It won't do you any good."Seth emitted a faint but palpable trace of killing intent as he glared at Lucy. "I'll ask one last time. Where did she go?"Lucy shuddered, feeling as if she was face-to-face with a fierce tiger that was about to devour her. "She... went to Imperial City to marry that fiancé of hers,” she replied. Seth's killing intent dissipated as his eyes narrowed. "The timing is off."Filled with dread, Lucy glanced at Seth and shook her head. "I don't know about that. They just came all of a sudden and took her away."If you’re wondering why you can't contact her, it's probably because she's worried that you'll go looking for her. She probably blocked you so that you
In just a short moment, all the security guards at the villa were knocked to the ground. They could not even get up."My goodness, he's actually so powerful?" Lucy exclaimed but then shook her head. "He's only just a little skilled. He still can't be compared to that man.""You!"When Fenton ran out after hearing the commotion, he was shocked and furious to see that it was Seth. He pointed his finger at him and shouted, "You little brat, do you have a death wish?"Seth walked up to him in just a few steps and delivered a resounding slap. He had been careful to make sure the force of it was just right so that it would not take Fenton's life. However, it was enough to make him suffer for a long time."Ahhh!"Fenton clutched his face as he let out a painful scream.With a thud, Seth kicked him to the ground and stepped on his chest, his expression cold. "You're not human. You're even willing to sell your own daughter! You should be grateful you're her father. Otherwise, you'd alrea
Seth also got up from his seat and went to the back of the plane. On the floor lay an elderly man with a pale face and bulging eyes."Make way, everyone. Quickly step aside. Let's make sure we have air circulation," Laurel shouted, clearing a path for herself. She crouched down to examine the elderly man before she started performing chest compressions. However, the old man's condition only got worse, his heartbeat even slowing down.Laurel became frantic as she felt the old man's life rapidly slipping away. She increased the pressure, but still it was not enough. "What should I do? What should I do? Without any medical equipment, I can't save him!" she cried, feeling helpless and useless."I'll take over." A calm and authoritative voice sounded just as Laurel was beginning to fall into despair. It immediately reassured her. She turned her head and saw Seth crouching down beside her.Laurel's eyes brightened when she remembered that Seth was a skilled doctor. "Mr. Yeager, pleas
"Look, the old man is awake!"When Seth pricked the final needle, the old man slowly regained consciousness. He looked somewhat bewildered.Laurel gazed at Seth with admiration, her heart in a flutter. She had to admit that there was a vast difference in their medical skills, but at this moment, Seth was shining brightly in Laurel's eyes.However, the young man's gaze toward Seth was filled with resentment. Seth just looked back at him before releasing him.Able to move again, the young man immediately crouched down. His expression was one of relief. "Grandpa, you're alright. Thank goodness. You gave me a fright just now."The old man rubbed the space between his brows and asked hoarsely, "My heart acted up just now. What happened?""Nothing. I just gave you a few quick-acting heart pills and you woke up."When Laurel heard this, she was furious and retorted, "Sir, you're going too far by saying that. Clearly, it was my... my friend who saved your grandfather. Why are you lying
Laurel's face was flushed, and she felt quite embarrassed. "Mr. Yeager, can... you give me your phone number?" She had never asked a guy for his contact information before. Growing up, she had always been the most beautiful and outstanding girl in her class. It was always the boys who tried to get her contact information using various means.Her heart was pounding. Afraid that Seth would misunderstand her intentions, she added, "I don't mean anything else. I was just thinking that if there's anything I don't understand about medicine in the future, I could ask you about it." Nodding, Seth gave her his phone number. If she was genuinely eager to learn, Seth did not mind imparting some knowledge to her. Having one more highly skilled medical practitioner in the world could benefit dozens or hundreds more people, after all. "Oh, that's great. Thank you!" Laurel was overjoyed but then realized that she was a little too excited and recomposed herself.Seth waved his hand and went to
Only after the young man screeched did the others finally realize what was happening. They began swinging fists and their various weapons, attacking Seth from all sides. Seth kicked the young man to the ground, then swiftly struck back.A minute later, all of them were lying on the ground, wailing in pain. There was not a hint of fear in the young man's eyes. He did not expect Seth to be this powerful. However, his confidence quickly returned, and he took on an air of arrogance again."You're dead! You're so fricking dead! Do you know who I am?"Seth had no interest in the taunts of this insignificant person. He was eager to find Alaska. Hence, he turned around and went back to the taxi.When the young man saw Seth ignoring him, he was incensed. "You're dead! I'm from the Yates family! Even if you escape to the ends of the earth, you can't escape death!"Seth had been about to get into the car but then he stopped and came back.The young man thought Seth had gotten scared and t
Two beautiful women strolled toward Seth hand-in-hand. The one on the left appeared to be around 30 years old. Her skin was as fair as snow, and she had long straight black hair. She was dressed in expensive-looking clothes that exuded an air of distinction.The other woman, in contrast, had a slightly less refined disposition but made up for it with youth and vibrant energy. She wore a tight-fitting blue professional suit and black stockings. She had the air of a young professional. She also wore glasses, giving her the look of a strong career-oriented woman.The two women approached Seth, chatting and smiling between themselves before casting their gazes toward him. The woman in the suit recognized him. Her brows furrowed as she called out, "It's you!"Seth was also surprised to see her here. This woman was none other than Joanne. Seth remembered when he rescued Faye from the women's restroom, Joanne had witnessed the scene.Joanne had misunderstood Seth then, thinking that he
It was the kind of demeanor that was acquired through numerous trials and tribulations, and it was her most prominent feature."Hello, Charmaine," the two women greeted eagerly as they approached her. There was a sense of intimacy between them. Their admiration for Charmaine was evident in their eyes.Charmaine's exact age was hard to determine at first glance. She seemed like she could be in her 20s, yet upon closer examination, she also appeared to be in her 30s. Her face bore an enchanting smile that could captivate anyone.After a brief exchange with the two women, Charmaine turned her gaze toward Seth."Who is this?" she inquired.Seth stepped forward and calmly introduced himself, "Hello, I'm Seth Yeager. May we have a moment to talk in private? I have some matters to discuss."Charmaine looked at Seth for a few moments. She sensed that this man was different from the others she had encountered before. He was calm—extremely calm.Even the so-called scions of Imperial Cit
