In a VIP ward, the hospital.
Talented doctors stood beside the patient, discussing about the treatment to save the girl.
Although they stabilized the girl and pulled her out of critical condition, her physical state deteriorated rapidly.
On the bed lay a pretty girl, whose face had a gentle aura that would surely captivate countless young men.
However, her face was pale and beads of sweat ran down her forehead in a frenzy, with rapid breath and erratic heartbeat.
She was Scarlet's younger sister, Bella.
However, Bella's illness was genuinely peculiar.
The doctors had never seen anything like it before, making it impossible to diagnose and treat.
At that moment, the door opened and Dr. John walked in, followed by a group of assistants.
As soon as the doctors saw John, they immediately displayed expressions of joy.
They crowded around him, praising and flattering him.
"Dr. John, you've finally arrived. Bella's condition is truly peculiar. We have never encountered such a case before."
"These are the symptoms we have observed on Bella. Please take a look at them."
"Now, Bella's life is in your hands..."
A series of respecting words pleased John very much.
He maintained a professional demeanor on the surface and accepted the compiled notes from a doctor, checking her disease.
At this point, John couldn't help but furrow his brows slightly.
It seemed these doctors were not incompetent, as these symptoms were peculiar.
However, no illness could pose a challenge to him!
That's what John thought. He stood tall, then concluded.
"It is merely a moderate-level heartache. We will proceed with surgery along with medication."
The rest of the doctors all nodded in agreement.
At that moment, a cold voice suddenly rang outside the door.
"She's not suffering from heartache. Your misdiagnosis could lead to her death."
Everyone in the room was stunned, simultaneously looking towards the door.
Outside the door, where Arthur stood, he gazed at Dr. John with an icy stare.
"As a professional doctor, you should understand the consequences of your inaccurate diagnosis."
He said coldly, declaring that Dr. John had diagnosed incorrectly.
Scarlet, beside him, looking at Arthur with a mix of worry and surprise.
She couldn't help but wonder if Arthur was also a skilled doctor at such a young age.
John's face contorted in anger because he was the most talented and proud doctor of his generation.
Wherever he went, he received the adoration of everyone and no one had ever dared to doubt him in the public.
Seeing Dr.John's expression turned gloomy, one of the doctors couldn't wait for him to speak.
He took a step forward, looking down on Arthur with disdain
"How dare you say that Dr. John made a misdiagnosis. Do you know who he is? Besides, are you a doctor?"
Arthur remained unfazed by his questions, but casually shaking his head and said.
"I'm not a doctor."
As soon as he finished speaking, Dr. John burst into laughter, and even the rest of the doctors thought it was funny.
A layman challenged the medical authority, what a funny joke!
John talked to Arthur arrogantly.
"This is not where a layman like you can speak, whose meaningless words would only worsen Miss Bella's condition."
Someone chimed in and said.
"Stand aside and keep quiet. Dr. John will treat Miss Bella?"
Arthur didn't care about their words but turned to Scarlet.
"His diagnosis is incorrect. I can treat your sister."
Arthur calmly spoke and waited for Scarlet's response.
Scarlet hesitated...
She couldn't believe that Arthur had the medical skill to cure her sister even if she had a good first impression on him.
Moreover, a professional doctor was present while Arthur was not even a trained doctor.
"Miss Scarlet, I think you should trust Dr. John. You can't listen to the unfounded words of someone who is not even a doctor!"
Dr. James said, the oldest and most experienced doctor present.
He had made significant achievements in the medical field and everyone respected him very much.
Seeing James speak up, the others also joined in.
"That's right, Miss Scarlet. Bella is in critical condition now. We should trust Dr. John."
"He's not even a doctor. You should keep a clear mind at this moment."
Arthur remained still as if they were not belittling him.
He and Scarlet had just met. There was no reason for her to trust him.
Moreover, his treatment was actually not the same as those conventional methods.
However, John's assistant quickly said.
"How can we know what you will do? What if your actions worsen Miss Bella's condition? I think you should leave and stop hindering Dr. John's treatment!"
Dr. John quickly said, "Miss Scarlet, Bella's condition is deteriorating. I need to administer medication to alleviate her pain right away!"
Gritting her teeth, she made her decision. Scarlet finally decided to trust the doctors!
She stared at Dr. John and said firmly.
"Then it's all count on you, Dr. John."
Arthur furrowed his brows slightly, staring at the girl lying on the bed,
Or rather, he was focusing on the evil energy swirling around her forehead.
His face turned solemn, but he didn't take any action as he knew Scarlet didn't trust him.
John looked smug as he glanced at Arthur before approaching the bedside. Scarlet hurriedly followed.
Arthur stood by the door, his expression devoid of emotion as he looked at them.
John approached and received a syringe from his assistant and explained to Scarlet.
"This is a recently released medication. It can temporarily alleviate the patient's pain. Once her body stabilizes, we will proceed with the surgery."
Scarlet nodded, trusting Dr. John's convincing words.
John approached and injected the medication into Bella's bloodstream through her arm.
At that moment, a mutation occurred!
Bella suddenly had an allergic reaction that her body convulsed violently and incessantly. The doctors in the room gasped in shock. The blood vessels on her body suddenly protruded, appearing thick and black, contrasting with her fair skin, creating a gruesome sight. She continued to convulse, and her mouth widely opened as if gasping for air. The heart rate monitor beeped alarmingly. Scarlet, the tough woman, screamed at this moment. With anger, she rushed forward, grabbing John by the collar, and demanded. "What have you done, you wretch?! What's happening to Bella?!" John's face was filled with fear, and the rest of the doctors in the room were terrified too. John looked at Scarlet in panic, cold sweat running down his forehead. He stammered. "N...no, I...I don't know..." Scarlet, without hesitation, pushed him away with force. John fell to the ground, his back in pain. Before he could react, Scarlet's cold voice rang out. "You idiot! I should never have trusted y
Soon, Bella's face regained its rosy complexion on the bed, but she remained unconscious due to her weak condition. Scarlet could finally let go of her worries and sat by the bedside, gently caressing her sister's forehead with affection. It was serene and peaceful time! However, not everyone was happy. Arthur turned around and looked at the pale-faced Dr. John, teasingly saying. "Dr. John, isn't it time for you to fulfill your bet now?" Upon hearing Arthur's words, John's face turned red, and he vehemently denied. "What bet? I have never made any bet with you!" For the sake of his pride and feeble self-esteem, he even refused to apologize. Since that was the case, Arthur couldn't easily let him off the hook. Initially, he thought an apology from John would be enough. However, not only was John lacking in medical skills, but also his medical ethics were poor. "Whether you agree or not, you can no longer practice medicine. Find another profession!" Determined to protect
On the way to the hotel, Scarlet couldn't contain her excitement. "I thought your medical skills were surprising enough. But I was wrong, and your martial arts have widened my horizons. You were truly amazing handsome at that moment!"Pausing momentarily, Scarlet suddenly laughed and jokingly said. "I even felt a flutter in my heart at that moment. I might have a thing for you." Arthur didn't care about her words. There's still a woman that he couldn't forget. Two of them, each with their own thoughts, were driving on the road. ... ... In the Bauhinia Hotel, owned by Scarlet, she had prepared the most expensive presidential suite for Arthur. Moreover, to show her gratitude, she invited him for a dinner. They went to the largest dining room on the hotel's top floor, where they could overlook the beautiful city at night while enjoying the meal. As Scarlet went to the restroom, Arthur ordered some Chinese dishes on the menu.Thinking that the date today was her birthday and
Scarlet was almost as tall as Arthur with the high heels. She glanced around disdainfully like a queen, though in deed, she's really the only queen here. The manager quickly bowed low and explained. "Boss, I have explained to them thoroughly, but they still insisted on entering this room..." Scarlet looked at him dissatisfied, speaking no words. The manager trembled and hastily said, "I understand! Boss." The people in front of them were stunned. They never expected that the person in this room was Scarlet Stacy, one of the most influential figures in the city. If they had known, they definitely wouldn't have caused trouble here! Raymond couldn't help but curse Jacob and Mrs. William for their stupidity in his mind. Additionally, he was jealous that Arthur could dine with Scarlet Stacy. He still tried to control his expression. He smiled and said, "Miss Scarlet..." But Scarlet didn't give him a chance to finish his sentence. "Raymond, you'd better control your dogs. You
The following day, in a secluded garden at a villa on the outskirts, the cheerful laughter of a little girl echoed."Grandma, the rose I planted bloom. They are as pretty as you!" The noble and elegant middle-aged woman smiled at little Emma's child words and affectionately stroked her head, eyes filled with love and indulgence. In the distance, sitting on the swing in the garden, was a gorgeous and exquisite young woman. She quietly watched the her mother and her daughter playing together, the lips curving into a gentle smile. She was Lucia, Lucia Gullweger, who had had one night stand with Arthur by accident. Just then, a servant's voice interrupted the serene atmosphere."Miss, Elder Ethan requests your presence." Lucia frowned slightly and thought in mind."Why is he here?" She had ever been supposed to be the heir of the family, as her father was the eldest son. However, everything changed after the incident three years ago, and she was stripped of the inheritance rights.
Arthur opened his eyes from within his world. With his legs crossed and his hands resting on his knees, he was in cultivation through the silver ring on his finger.It was a precious ring that proved his identity as the heir of the Hastings. Only his blood could activate it, making him the rightful successor of the family.Just a moment ago, the ring had trembled ever so slightly for times.In his mental world, he felt a little nervous like something was slowly slipping out of his control.Right at that moment, a sudden knock on the door sounded.Arthur frowned a little. He had instructed Scarlet that anyone who wanted to meet him must notify her first. However, he hadn't received any call from Scarlet.He didn't like things out of control, making him feel like everything was getting out of order.Nonetheless, Arthur suppressed his temper. From the knock on the door, he could sense that the person outside was in a hurry.He gave a faint smile and spoke softly, "Come in."The door
Arthur and Bella arrived at the company twenty minutes ago, which seemed ordinary amidst this city center.Arthur looked at the company before him, his face calm and unwavering. It was as if he was about to face danger to save someone who wasn't even himself.Bella looked at Arthur, not understanding why her older sister entrusted her safety to someone like Arthur.Before coming here, she always thought a team of bodyguards would accompany Arthur. But no, reality proved that he came here alone.Bella hesitated for a moment. Arthur's voice suddenly resounded: "Stay in the car and wait for me. Don't go outside; it's dangerous."He opened the door, preparing to step out of the car.Bella seemed to be awakened by Arthur's instructions. She looked at him, somewhat startled, following his figure.She instinctively asked, "Can only you really save my sister?"But at this moment, Arthur had already stepped outside, and the car door closed.Bella could only see his tall figure through the dark-
In the official vehicle they used to come here, Bella looked at Scarlet worriedly, "Are you alright, sis?" Although still scared, Scarlet quickly reassured Bella, "I'm fine." She then glanced at Arthur and added, "Thank goodness for Arthur." Bella also reacted now. She had been too excited to see her sister and had even forgotten to thank Arthur. Thinking of this, Bella felt slightly embarrassed as she looked at Arthur and said, "Thank you so much for saving my sister." Still looking out the car window, Arthur shook his head and said, "It's nothing big. It's what I should do." Bella didn't quite understand, but Scarlet remembered their deal. Arthur had promised to handle all the dangers for her, allowing her to focus on her business, and today's events proved that he could deliver on that promise. With that thought in mind, Scarlet's expression turned serious, and her heart, which had been in turmoil due to the kidnapping, became much calmer. She looked at Bella, and Bella sen
