Chapter 9
Who was it?

The sudden yell startled everyone in the ward.

When they fixed their eyes on the person, they immediately showed looks of disdain.

This was because the person who came was no other than the loser they were speaking of, Fred!

One of the Cadmans said with a playful sneer, "I was expecting someone else, but it's you, you good-for-nothing...wait...how are you standing?"

With just that one sentence...

The original banter and contempt instantly gave way to looks of surprise from the crowd when they finally reacted. Fred actually walked in with his own two legs!

In these past five years, they knew Fred was a useless waste of space, a man who had achieved nothing, a loser with crippled legs

Now...

"Who is he?"

Without paying attention to the surprise in the eyes of the people, Fred just looked at Valerie with cold eyes and asked her the question.

When Fred walked in, he saw that Valerie was snuggling on top of Yousef's arms.

Although Fred had taken the initiative to propose a divorce, the problem was that divorce required formalities. For now, Valerie was still his nominal wife.

Valerie actually snuggled in the arms of another man in front of him—he felt offended.

"You...what do you mean by that look?"

Valerie felt guilty at this moment, guilty enough to forget to ask why Fred was able to stand up.

Before an official divorce, Fred was still her lawful husband. When Fred looked at her like this, Valerie felt like she had been caught in adultery.

Subconsciously, she tried to break away from Yousef's arms.

The moment she moved, Valerie's mother, Karen, snorted coldly and said, "Are you allowed to speak here? The first thing you need to do is to take a look in the mirror and gauge if you're worthy of talking to Mr. Hanks. Do you know who he is?"

"Besides, Valerie is already divorcing you, why do you care who she ends up with?"

"As long as I'm not yet divorced, I'm still Valerie's husband. Naturally, I am allowed to care!" Fred said faintly and slowly turned his icy gaze to his mother-in-law’s face.

"Also, on account of the fact that you have been my mother-in-law for five years, I will not hold it against you this time. If there is a next time, I will not hold back!"

"You dare rebel, you useless..."

In the past, he was a worthless person. Today, he dared to talk to her with this attitude, which instantly made Karen want to curse.

Looking at Fred's ice-cold eyes, however, she could not finish her words. She even withdrew her fingers involuntarily.

The Cadman family also seems to feel the difference between Fred from his past version. The whole ward was silent for a while.

"Valerie, is this your husband who joined the Cadman family?"

At this moment, Yousef spoke up.

He sneered and slowly stepped forward, glancing at Fred with contempt and mockery in his eyes.

One of them was a good-for-nothing that was infamous in Sea City, and the other was the young master of the Hanks family.

The difference in status was simply too much!

Seeing that he was just about to pluck the beautiful flower named Valerie, he would not let anyone spoil his plans.

Yousef sneered, "I've often heard people say that Valerie's husband is Sea City's greatest loser. Your current appearance may be a little different from the rumors, but...the point of you being a loser is true. I guess they weren't lying!"

"Hands off!" Fred said coolly.

"What...did you say?"

Yousef, who originally had a cold smile on his face, was slightly stunned by Fred's remark. When he saw Fred's eyes, however, he instantly laughed.

At this moment, one of his hands was resting on Valerie's shoulder.

The Cadman family members on the side angrily rebuked and shouted at him.

"Uncouth!"

"How dare you!"

"You punk, how dare you talk to Mr. Hank like that! Apologize to Mr. Hank now!"

However, Fred was still unmoved, but his eyes remained cold as he spoke again.

"I'll say it one last time, take your hands off her!"

"Haha!"

Yousef instantly laughed. "One last time? Who do you think you are? What if I say no? What are you going to do?"

Yousef became more reckless with his words. His hand on Valerie's shoulder directly began to move downward, as though it was about to touch a forbidden area.

Fred moved!

With just a palm movement from Fred, Yousef suddenly could not keep his posture and fell toward Fred, and then...

Whap!

A solid slap was delivered directly on the face of Yousef. He was smacked to the floor and rolled three times. With a face of confusion falling over his face, he did not react for a long time.

"That is what I’ll do!" Fred slowly withdrew his palm and said indifferently.

Silence!

Dead silence!

With Fred's slap, not only was Yousef dumbfounded but the Cadman family members present were also rendered speechless.

That was Yousef, the heir of the Hanks family!

Just by stomping his feet, half of Sea City would cower in fear. Despite that, Fred had the audacity to lay hands on him.

Also, Fred had messed with the Graham family before this.

Was he...trying to make an enemy of the entire Sea City?

"You dare to hit me? How dare you hit me!"

After a while, Yousef finally got up from the ground and roared fiercely. "You b**stard! Do you know that I can have you killed with a single move of my finger? Do you still dare to hit me?

"If you don't get lost at this moment, I will kill you. Do you believe that?" Fred said with an expressionless face.

"Get lost? Haha, you’re actually telling me to get lost?"

Yousef laughed loudly. "Do you know that it’s because of me that the old man lying on the bed can receive the best medical treatment available? And you're telling me to get lost?

"Oh, if I were to get lost, no one would want to treat him even if he was dying on a busy street!"

"I don't need you to cure him!" Fred said indifferently. "Eric is my father-in-law, I have my own solution to his illness!"

"You have a solution?"

When Yousef heard Fred's words, he laughed hysterically. "This old thing is hanging on by a thread. What can a useless person like you do? Are you by chance a miracle worker?"

"Give me ten minutes!"

Ignoring Yousef, Fred looked out the door and said, "I need all doctors in Sea City that have qualifications of Ph.D. and above to come here for a consultation!"

Outside the door, a loud voice replied.

"Yes, Great One!"
