After such a thought, she felt slightly embarrassed. Alex was a married man after all.Alex chuckled. “Oh don’t joke with me, Mr. Yoke. I’m married.”Wallace replied, “So what if you’re married? You can always get a divorce, right? And if you can’t, you can change your nationality to become Arabian. I have connections to help with that.”Both Alex and Cheryl fell silent.‘This old man is such a jester.’Within just a few moments, they arrived at the patients’ ward.Since all of these patients were filed as special cases, they were all placed together in one ward. This was more convenient for the medics responsible for their checkups.The first patient that they saw was a petite young girl.Next to her was her mother. Her mother’s eyes were red, she seemed to be on the edge of a mental breakdown. Who wouldn’t treasure their children? Having her daughter fall victim to such disaster, she felt as if the world was collapsing in front of her eyes. “Her name is Rose Carson, a stude

However, some of them were only there to see Alex go down with humiliation, especially Clarence. After being slapped by Wallace, he couldn’t hold in his anger.“That Rockefeller guy must be a liar. He’s really skilled in his tricks. I have no idea how he managed to trick Mr. Yoke.” He said, visibly annoyed. He walked over to the two middle-aged men who came with Wallace and asked, “Do you know anything about that guy?”The two men were Wallace’s apprentices, and they were just as confused as well, as they have never seen Alex before. On the contrary, their master had always treated them harshly, supposedly as part of the training. Yet here he was, showing such adoration toward a young man, and they found it unacceptable.One of them shook their heads. “This is the first time we’re meeting him. We didn’t know that our country had such a young, capable expert.”Clarence said, “Then I was right. This guy must have used some sort of trick and fooled Mr. Yoke. He could've used voodoo fo

“Uhm, doctor, are you sure that he’s not treating the patient?” a middle-aged man asked.He was the father of one of the victims. His daughter was the last one to receive Alex’s treatment. Hence the deadly Chi within her was yet to be removed. Everyone else’s bodies had been cleared of the Chi except for her.Clarence looked determined. “I’m sure of it, I swear on my life!”The man already had doubts about Alex. ‘How could such a young man be so skilled?’He turned to Alex and said, “My daughter doesn’t need your help. I could already tell that this was no treatment. You’re obviously just trying to molest her. You’re disgusting.”Alex’s gaze turned cold. “Are you sure? If your daughter doesn’t receive treatment now, her life would be at risk.”The man was stern. “I’m very sure. Don’t you dare curse my daughter. She doesn’t need a liar like you to save her.”Alex shrugged, nodded, and left immediately.Since he was just here to help Cheryl out, providing treatment was just out o

The woman was squirming, trying to take off her clothes. Her jacket was already off at that point in time, and her foxy figure could be seen under the dim moonlight.They seemed to be in the middle of something.Dorothy was slightly taken aback. She apologized and turned around to leave. She thought she wouldn’t get into trouble if she quickly walked away and pretended like nothing happened. However, the man in black rushed towards her and blocked her way.“Where are you going?” The man stared at Dorothy intently. His eyes lit up.With just a whiff, he could smell the fragrant scent of perfume on her body too.This was the effort that Dorothy had put in for Alex, and she had on a rather sexy dress too. Everything that she had done to impress Alex was now the main cause of her getting into trouble.She could tell that the man was up to no good. Backing away, she asked in a quivering voice, “What… what are you trying to do?”The man cackled. “It’s night time. What else would I be

As those thoughts crossed his mind, Alex could feel a deep, murderous intent surging within him. If Dorothy and Anne were to end up in the hands of this scum, they would have to endure a more painful fate than death itself.“Die!” The man in black attacked again, sending ap unch toward Alex’s throat.Before he could attack, though, Alex grabbed his fist with one hand and tightened his grip. The man’s fist crackled, and every bone shattered into pieces. It was as if a steamroller had crushed it multiple times.Since the fingers’ nerves were linked to the heart, the man yelped and howled from the excruciating and unbearable pain.He finally realized that he was up against an absolute beast.In front of Alex, his training and skills were made into a laughing stock.‘Escape!’ That was the only thing he could think of at the moment.That, unfortunately, was all but an idealistic scenario. In reality, Alex had already decided on killing the man.He had crossed Alex’s bottom line and
