Chapter 1724

Author: Dreamy Fire
Word of Felix's new status spread quickly through Banilor Clinic, and staff members greeted him respectfully as he passed. Being Pedro's apprentice on probation meant he would likely become an actual apprentice soon.

When that happened, they'd all be addressing him as "Mr. Zeller". No one wanted to be caught disrespecting him now.

Instead of heading straight home, Felix took a detour through the market. He picked up several items Katie loved, including a collection of stuffed animals. Despite her age, Katie still had that childhood innocence.

As Felix navigated the narrow alleys that led to his apartment, a figure stepped into his path, blocking the way.

"Mr. Harrell?" Felix called out.

Felix recognized Clarence immediately. There was a hint of surprise in his voice, but his eyes remained calm, as if he'd somehow expected this confrontation. Since he was just an apprentice on probation, he still had to address Clarence respectfully.

"Felix, do you think you can walk all over

    Rodney frowned. "Why are you asking about something like this? Mrs. Sharpe is a VIP. Do you think I can just casually reveal information about such an important client?"Felix was well aware of this protocol, but he wouldn't have come if he hadn't had some confidence in getting Rodney to talk. This matter had to succeed; otherwise, if Clarence attacked again, who knew if Felix would survive."So, it's not Mrs. Sharpe who's sick, but her daughter," he stated matter-of-factly."You!" Rodney fumed, realizing too late that he'd fallen into Felix's trap. This guy's mind worked incredibly fast. He growled, "Get out of here right now. I'll pretend you never came." In truth, this was exactly what Felix wanted to confirm—that Tasha had sought Pedro's help for Claire. But there were still things he needed to clarify. When he saved Claire that day, he had already checked her pulse and naturally discovered what illness she had."Mr. Madden, you were present when I passed Mr. Goff's test. You

    Felix had spent one million dollars, not to seek long-term protection, but to solve this one problem. Arlo could not help but think it was truly a first-of-its-kind situation. He initially thought Felix was some wealthy family's son, but after an investigation, he discovered he was actually broke. It seemed that Felix had just been lucky enough to save Tasha's daughter, Claire, earning him a one-million-dollar reward. Yet, he then spent it just like that.Felix said, "No regrets. Without you, what good would one million dollars do me anyway? Would I throw it at Chester, expecting him to help me against Clarence?" Arlo laughed. "You're really something, kid. I'm impressed by your talent—you've got courage and brains. Why not come work for me? What do you say? Even though you don't look particularly strong, I guarantee that within three years, I'll have you living large."Felix remained respectful as he replied, "Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Newman, but I feel medicine is sti

    Felix let out a deep sigh. "Really? Do we have to go this far?" Clarence just stood there with a smug smile, not saying a word. Chester, though, piped up with a grin. "Don't blame me, Felix. Mr. Harrell's cutting you a break here. Otherwise, you might already be a dead man." Felix slowly looked up. "I hate to break it to you, but you can't lay a finger on me." This cracked Clarence up, and he laughed. "What, you think someone is going to come and save you? Just brace yourself for the pain train that's coming." Out of nowhere, several loud thuds echoed through the alley. Clarence and Chester watched in shock as the thugs sneaking up behind Felix dropped like flies without any warning. After they hit the ground, a deep voice cut through the air. "I won't allow you to touch this young man." Chester turned toward the person who'd just flattened his men and felt his blood run cold. "Mr. Newman?" Arlo Newman ran the underground circles of East District—even Chester had to for

    Word of Felix's new status spread quickly through Banilor Clinic, and staff members greeted him respectfully as he passed. Being Pedro's apprentice on probation meant he would likely become an actual apprentice soon. When that happened, they'd all be addressing him as "Mr. Zeller". No one wanted to be caught disrespecting him now. Instead of heading straight home, Felix took a detour through the market.

    Pedro's frown deepened at Felix's bold claim. Sensing an opportunity, Clarence jumped in. "Felix! How dare you speak to Mr. Goff like this? You only spent about five seconds with those residues, and now you claim to know all eight herbs! "Mr. Goff has always taught us that having baseless confidence is the worst thing ever in the medical field. It would easily lead to misdiagnosis. Yet here you are, doing exactly that!" Then, he turned to Pedro with a concerned expression. "Mr. Goff, we should remove Felix from Banilor Clinic immediately. Someone this reckless will eventually harm our reputation. It'll be too late by the time he causes a real problem." Rodney and Pauline remained silent since they had no authority to speak, but they felt helpless. Felix had something that Pedro hated the most. His chances of passing this round seemed grim. But Pedro studied Felix closely, noticing the clear confidence in his eyes. This made him pause. Containing his irritation, he said, "Fine,

    Clarence kept his expression neutral, but inside, he was boiling with rage. Never in a million years would he have guessed that the man he was about to push out the door might suddenly become Pedro's apprentice on probation. Then again, he remembered how difficult Pedro's tests typically were, which calmed him somewhat. Felix would probably fail anyway. Did he seriously think memorizing a few herbs would impress Pedro? He could keep dreaming! "Everyone's here. Let the test begin." Someone brought in three boxes and placed them on the table. Pedro spoke up. "Since you've studied herbs, I'll test your knowledge of medicinal plants. These three boxes contain different medicinal fruits, each with distinctive patterns. Anyone with proper herbal training can identify them by touch alone. "You need to correctly name two out of the three to pass." Felix stepped forward. The boxes were positioned so that he couldn't see their contents without crouching down. He reached inside and

    Katie exclaimed, "Wow! Felix, you bought so much seafood!" At home, Katie stared at the groceries Felix carried through the door. Though she was practically drooling at the sight, she shook her head disapprovingly and said, "You shouldn't waste money like this! We got some savings from selling the shop, but you'll need every penny to learn at Banilor Clinic. "Plus, the doctor said seafood's off-limits for me." Felix smiled. "Don't worry about it. I know what I'm doing. I saved Tasha Sharpe's daughter today, and she gave me a million dollars as thanks. What's wrong with enjoying a little seafood?" When Katie heard that he had been rewarded with a million dollars, she widened with shock. She'd never seen that kind of money in her life. Her mouth watered again before she remembered her restrictions, making her cheeks puff out in frustration. "You're actually allowed to eat this. I asked Mr. Goff about it. Those other doctors only restricted your diet because they wanted to play

    Tasha said, "You saved Claire's life, so let me reward you properly." She motioned with her right hand, and a bodyguard appeared with a checkbook ready. "Just tell me how much you want." Jealousy rippled through the room. Everyone knew Tasha was generous with her money, especially when family was involved. Each of them imagined themselves as the hero of the moment, picturing the money that might have been theirs. Clarence suffered the most. He was clenching his fists hard. When he thought about how he had arranged Felix's transfer himself, all he wanted to do now was to slap himself. Felix began, "Mrs. Sharpe, I couldn't possibly accept—" Tasha pretended to shoot him an angry look, already scribbling on the check. "I'll give you one million dollars. And don't complain it's not enough. Any more might turn your head, and we wouldn't want that." Sudden wealth could change people in unthinkable ways—she wasn't wrong about that. For someone with Tasha's fortune, a million dollar

    Everyone present was terrified; even the two bodyguards were at a loss for what to do. If anything happened to Claire, Tasha would absolutely lose her mind. Felix had already run over to Claire. He had been watching her while imagining that if Nerissa had given birth to a girl, she would probably be about this age by now. Felix rushed behind Claire, wrapped his arms around her from behind, and suddenly began to apply pressure. Anyone from Earth would recognize this action immediately—he was doing the Heimlich maneuver. The reason was simple. Claire had been eating candy, and the current situation was clearly caused by a piece stuck in her throat. Meanwhile, Tasha and Clarence rushed over. When he saw Felix making such strange movements, cold sweat broke out all over his body. "Felix! What are you doing? Let go now!" he demanded.Almost as Clarence was speaking, Felix applied pressure a second time. In the next moment, they saw Claire spit out a piece of candy that fell to th
