Amelia had just come out of a luxury store in Beverly Hills, carrying several designer shopping bags.

Tall and graceful, she exuded a unique charm even in casual attire. People passing by couldn't help but steal glances at her.

Jackson, clearly agitated, strode over and thrust a bank card into her hand without a word.

He hissed, "Amelia, take the money and leave. Don't cause trouble here."

Today was a significant day for Mia. She was set to begin her medical apprenticeship under a renowned doctor, and Jackson couldn't afford any disruptions.

Amelia raised an eyebrow, her eyes filled with disdain and a mocking smile playing on her lips.

Fifty thousand dollars?

They thought she could be bought off with that?

The Miltons underestimated her.

Just as everyone expected her to quietly accept the money and leave, she flicked her wrist and sent the card flying back. It arced through the air and landed neatly at Jackson's feet.

The crowd fell into an awkward silence, stunned by her bol

    Mia continued to speak softly, “This older sister, on behalf of my mother, I apologize. Since you don’t want the money, please don’t follow the Milton family anymore. You have your own hands and feet, you can support yourself. I’m just afraid that my mother’s way of doing things might hurt your pride.”Her words were polite and appropriate, earning praise from those around them.People looked at Mia, then at Amelia, and thought there was a world of difference between them. Mia was graceful and kind, like a little fairy. Amelia, on the other hand, seemed petty, with a sinister mind.The crowd behind the elderly couple shook their heads.Seeing this, Amelia’s lips curled into a faint smile, and her clear eyes seemed capable of seeing through everything.Mia, however, avoided Amelia’s gaze. For some reason, she felt a little afraid of this “older sister” who didn’t follow the usual rules.Was she resentful because she had been kicked out of the Milton family? Was she trying to take reven

    Jackson saw that no one was around and stopped pretending to be kind: “From today on, let’s pretend we never raised you. From now on, we’ll go our separate ways!”Amelia didn’t respond, too lazy to bother with this family anymore.However, Director Noah, who had ridden over on an electric bike to find someone, wasn’t pleased. He stopped the bike, furrowing his brows slightly: “Comrade, how can you speak to … Amelia like that? So rude.”Amelia, the miraculous doctor, had always been low-profile. Once outside the compound, he only allowed them to call him Amelia.Director Noah had almost slipped up earlier and almost called her something else.Jackson misunderstood and glanced at Director Noah. “Is this your real father? Riding an old electric bike?”He couldn’t even afford a decent car—no wonder Amelia had ended up so insignificant. Someone from a rural village couldn’t be expected to do anything impressive, especially still wearing a traditional suit in this day and age.Jackson’s con

    "I thought they were here for a consultation," Director Noah murmured softly.Amelia didn’t think much of it. She simply lowered her head to send a message declining a consultation request. Lately, many people had come to the neighborhood asking for her services, including some from neighboring cities and counties. It wasn’t strange for Director Noah to think that way, especially since her biological parents were from River County."Director Noah, let’s head back. We shouldn’t keep Uncle Lee and the others waiting," Amelia said."Alright," Director Noah replied with a smile and a nod.One said little, the other asked nothing. A beautiful misunderstanding was born from their interaction.Outside the Community the Cromwell family was in a panic.Several of the Cromwell family’s young masters had work to attend to, so they had to return first.Mr. Cromwell sat in a New York-registered business car, looking grim. "Didn’t they say the seventh young lady lives here? Why is everyone saying t

    "Yes, Mr. Milton, they specifically asked to see the fake young lady. They want to know her whereabouts now," the butler, who had been the first to kick Amelia out earlier, reported.Jackson thought about the shabby electric bike from earlier and felt a wave of irritation. "No wonder she didn’t want the money. She must think it’s too little and wants to cling to the Milton family!""This family really has no shame!" the butler growled. "I’ll go take care of this. I’m great at dealing with these clingy pests!"Jackson, always thinking a few steps ahead, warned, "Just don’t make it too ugly. the Milton family has a reputation to maintain.""Don’t worry, I know what I’m doing," the butler assured him.Jackson hung up the phone and continued inside to toast with the guests. In a little while, Mia would officially apprentice under the Adler family, and with their prestige in the medical world, she would inevitably get close to the Jenkins family. His career would then be smooth sailing.At

    The old man had only been passing by and, seeing someone getting treatment, thought he might try his luck. He never expected to be cured. When he learned that Amelia charged him nothing, he almost kneeled down to thank her.Amelia stopped him, gently wiping her hands. "Old man, this isn’t a serious illness. It’s just a simple bone adjustment. Traditional medicine treats it like this.""Simple bone adjustment?" The old man looked confused. "But Dr.Adler said I need surgery! He said the surgery would cost a million."A million?The number made everyone around frown. For ordinary people, that amount could be a financial disaster."What is this Dr.Adler doing?! Robbing people?!" Emma was the first to express her displeasure. As someone who had been in leadership, she was particularly concerned about the suffering of the common people.Others were also upset, and one of them turned to Director Noah. "little Noah, you need to handle this properly!"Director Noah was wiping sweat from his br

    If the "Saint Doctor" no longer chose to assist the Adler family in LA, which family would they choose instead?With this question in mind, other prominent families began to stir, eagerly sending private messages to Amelia.The most prominent was Young Master Hart: "Boss, you made the right call. It was time to cooperate with another family! Our Hart family’s fortune is finally here!"Amelia didn’t respond to any of the messages.After issuing the expulsion notice, she turned off her phone again and resumed her free medical consultations. No one could have guessed that the young girl sitting in the plaza, treating people, was the legendary "Saint Doctor" who could shake the winds of LA!Meanwhile, the so-called Dr.Adler, Evelyn Adler, was in a private room at the Caesar Hotel, taking on disciples. Although today’s encounter with the reckless young girl had been frustrating, the Milton family had been accommodating, which helped soothe her nerves.At the dinner table, Mary was sweetly

    But Evelyn held herself back. Being sharp as ever, she would never openly reveal the crumbling state of the Adler family in front of everyone.What she needed to do now was stabilize these smaller families: "You're right. Everyone knows how powerful the Adler family has been in the medical field these years. But on such a happy occasion, it's bad luck to let this kind of thing get out."Jackson, being a businessman, felt that something about this situation was strange.Mary, however, was worried that the apprenticeship might fall through, so she continued flattering Evelyn: "Of course! Master Adler has even won awards abroad! When she’s back in the country, she’ll cure everyone effortlessly!"Evelyn didn’t mention that her award-winning drug analysis had been assisted by Serene Health Pavilion. She simply sighed, "Mary, we need to stay low. the Adler family has its flaws too. For example, in the treatment of Young Master Jenkins, we lacked a key herb, the Heart Herb. Otherwise, we wou

    "Miss! Seventh Miss! I've finally found you!"Manager Monroe, with his strong New York accent, was so excited that his beer belly jiggled with every word.Amelia turned to look at him. He was dressed in an expensive suit, not tall but exuding a businesslike air.She didn’t recognize him from her circle.Amelia raised her hand to grab her bag, her brow slightly furrowed, "You’ve mistaken me for someone else.""Mis... mistaken?" Manager Monroe repeated her words in a deflated tone. Seeing how outstanding this young woman was—her striking looks and elegant demeanor—he had mistaken her for the Seventh Miss he was supposed to pick up.Now, looking back, he realized how foolish he had been.The information from River County hadn’t mentioned anything about the Seventh Miss being a doctor. This young woman, with such remarkable medical skills, couldn’t possibly be the one he was looking for. If she were really the Seventh Miss, the Milton family wouldn’t have overlooked such an important deta

    But what she hated even more was herself, as she had no ability to know who the other person was!Amelia's eyes were pale: "No rush, easy to find.""Solving a case sometimes relied on modern tools."Amelia said, raising her hand to check the time, "It's eight ten. Once we have checked the guests who arrived around this time, we will be able to identify the culprit.""How do I check?" The twins, although mature, are still children after all.Amelia laughed and said, "Infiltrating the surveillance system was easy."However, her handsome fiancé had to return Elijah to her first.With this thought in mind, Amelia had just planned to take a stroll and walk past.Zane said, "Carl, you misunderstood. Abby is someone I grew up with. She just really likes you, but she has never been clingy. What you said in front of so many people was too much."Zane claimed to be Carl's father-in-law, and he had already built the steps. No matter what, the other party had to give him face and let the matter p

    They couldn't help it and even tore apart the green tea with their hands!Looking back now, the Cromwell family saw the child that had been brought back, just holding pastries and looking at the scene with thin lips slightly curved.It was really too heavy to hold my breath!She was truly Ruby's daughter!Some people were also puzzled, like Trista. She didn't understand why, even though she knew these truths, she still wanted to speak up for Abby in that moment.She pinched her own hand to suppress the strange feeling.Even Sebastian was somewhat affected, if it weren't for Carl speaking up, he would have almost been entangled by Abby.This has also been puzzling to him, as he clearly knew that he disliked Abby, but whenever he encountered her, he would feel sorry for her, as if she had some serious illness.Sebastian furrowed his brow and planned to turn around and have a good talk with Amelia about this matter.What he didn't know was that someone had already informed Amelia about t

    Since Carl had made a move, there was no way he would give her any room to maneuver.Tea or not tea, he didn't care, and it had nothing to do with him.But when it came to someone, he definitely carried the teapot and tea together.Someone just said that the most important thing for a woman is propriety, righteousness, integrity, and honor.Carl glanced, and his gaze fell on an inconspicuous wealthy lady in the crowd. "I want to ask Mr. Savigny, why is it that these two individuals openly express their admiration for me without any hesitation? Don't you think there's a problem with that? On the other hand, the person who is engaged to me, why do you criticize and condemn her for the same thing?""And yet, you felt nothing when it came to these two individuals?"Norma Savigny opened her mouth and said, "That's different, Abby has been... for so many years.""It is indeed different," Carl interrupted her softly. "Amelia is my fiancée, as for these two... I have privately rejected them m

    Amanda has been influenced by the scent of medicine for a long time, and now she has become a bit delusional. However, she is completely unaware of it and continues to act recklessly.Paula wanted to pull her, "Amanda, are you crazy!"Her daughter could not have been so stupid normally!Didn't you see Carl's actions? He specifically came here to support Amelia!Amanda, on the other hand, seemed to have lost her sanity: "Mom, listen to me, he couldn't possibly fall for a village girl, what did he even talk about with that village girl? He's such a sophisticated person!"Paula wished she could have slapped Amanda again.Amanda's strength was surprisingly strong, and no matter how hard she tried to stop her, she couldn't.Amanda saw others looking at her like she was crazy, and her heart grew cold. She immediately went to Abby and grabbed her hand, saying, "Abby, you know best. We have been watching him all these years. He has rejected you countless times, even. It's impossible for him t

    The New York boss, the New York prince, were never fake.Thinking about what he used to do when his body wasn't so bad, he would just uproot the entire Jenkins family if they made him unhappy.They all saw what he was like when dealing with people. Who would dare to cross the line? Isn't that asking for trouble?The chilling momentum made some other bosses quickly say, "Mr. Jenkins, your fiancée, what kind of circles is she involved in? She herself is a circle!"Carl nodded towards the person speaking and said, "Mr. Carter was right. I also wished that my fiancée would not be bothered or manipulated by anyone in the future.""So, I also arrived a little late."Amanda listened to the words in her ears and shook her head continuously, saying, "No, I don't believe it! How could you possibly like her!""She was beautiful and kind, with a pure and simple heart. Why wouldn't I be able to like her?" Carl's eyes were pale.Are people beautiful and kind-hearted?Simple-minded?The crowd looked

    The shareholders did indeed start to hesitate, and the business partners were also discussing.Ruby protected Amelia and said confidently, "Amelia is not the kind of person who would do these things, there is a misunderstanding here.""Aunt Ruby, how do you explain Scarface's words then? This video was really filmed!" Amanda shouted, unchanging in her stubbornness.Paula, who originally wanted to pull her along, did not stop her at this moment.Ruby's daughter embarrassing herself was the most enjoyable thing for her.All the pressure came to the Cromwell family at once."Scarface, it was indeed difficult to explain."Most likely, this is the rumor spread by Amelia from the Cromwell family, probably out of fear that Mr. Jenkins would want to break off the engagement again."The Jenkins family must have looked down on someone from a small place, otherwise there wouldn't have been no one coming.""Who said it wasn't, and Scarface has been around for so many years. Only listen to Sir Cro

    People did not know who the person in the picture was.The video only captured the marble floor on the ground.The photographer intentionally took it this way.At that moment, everyone's gaze focused on the screen."Mr. Jenkins, who had previously rejected the Cromwell family's proposal, would never actively pursue her.""How did you know it was her spreading the rumors?"The voices of the two girls were clearly processed, making it impossible to tell who they were."I caught the person spreading rumors."One of the girls aimed her phone at the screen.Wearing a long coat and carrying a birdcage, Scarface was talking to someone, saying, "You guys have only seen one side of the Cromwell family's matter, Mr. Jenkins was the one chasing after people.""You see, the way he talks, it's as if he has seen it with his own eyes." The voice in the scene says, "Who doesn't know that he is one of Hamza's people, it is clear who spread this rumor."I was also drunk. Only shameless people would spr

    Amelia naturally associated him with Zane, especially since Zane trusted him so much.The Wraith Infant and her sisters all told her that she was not...Amelia got lost in her thoughts.The only voice found in the dream banquet was Paula's.Another question, until now, she has not found the answer.Wasn't it big enough?Amelia pressed her fingertips against the evil-warding coin and calmly looked around in all directions.Zane was still struggling, and Abby stood beside him, looking pitiful, calling out, "Dad, don't be like this.""What problems does she have? Can you tell?" Amelia casually raised her hand and took a glass of wine.The vengeful spirits jumped twice on her shoulder and said, "I didn't see anything else, it's just that people listened to her too much, Master. I know there is a kind of dark magic underground that can influence people's thoughts.""Dark magic?" Amelia said absentmindedly, "Are you referring to what is recorded in the Indian scriptures?"The vengeful spiri

    So Zane hated, and of course he could not chase the past again, he also had his dignity!Abby became anxious and said, "Dad, you should go and say something nice to Mom. Mom won't really divorce you.""She wanted to leave, so she left!" Zane tugged at his tie, veins popping on his forehead, and sweat pouring down.Abby couldn't believe that her usually astute father couldn't see through the current situation.The divorce became a settled matter in such a situation.What did she do after today?The information that Ruby had come too late.Otherwise, she wouldn't have made up her mind to divorce Zane today.The smartest thing about this approach was that it put an end to Abby relying on Zane and herself, and constantly seeking the support of the Cromwell family and the Molson family!Even Sebastian was wondering, "Mom, how did you suddenly have a change of heart?"He and his brothers all thought that the divorce, no matter how it was said, would take some time, until their mother really
