Lahat ng Kabanata ng The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection: Kabanata 1771 - Kabanata 1780

Felix pretended not to hear him, continuing to walk. Inside, he was panicking. The man had called out his name, so it was clear that he was coming for him. However, he remembered the bodyguards Tasha had secretly gotten for him. He felt a little relieved. "Hey! Didn't you hear me?" the man called out again.Felix took another step and stopped. The man had stepped in front of him, blocking his way. With that speed, what else could he be besides a martial artist? He wasn't weak either."Let me introduce myself. I'm Ares. I heard that you have amazing medical skills, Dr. Zeller. My missus invited you to join us. I wouldn't dare to promise anything else, but it'll definitely be better than working with Elise."Felix's expression turned gloomy. This Ares guy had definitely investigated him thoroughly. He even dared to call Elise by her first name, so he must be quite powerful."I'm sorry, but I've signed a contract with Ms. Chapman, so I can't decide this myself," Felix replied.

The next day, Felix was ready to work. Tasha had called in a powerful patient to see him. At about 10 in the morning, the so-called powerful man came. He was a man in his 50s. He looked healthy at first glance, but some of his symptoms weren't frequent."Mr. Wiley, let me introduce you to our genius doctor, Felix Zeller." As Tasha spoke, Felix took the initiative to extend his hand for a handshake. Brian Wiley smiled and said, "He looks young and promising. Without your guarantee, I really wouldn't dare let such a young doctor see me." He turned to Felix and said, "I'm quite a blunt man, Dr. Zeller. Please don't mind my words."Brian was right. Without Tasha, no matter how great Felix was, who would dare come to him for treatment? "Mr. Wiley, you're too kind. Please, have a seat. I know your time is precious," Felix said as he motioned to the chair.Once Brian was seated, he extended his right arm. "Then please, take my pulse, Dr. Zeller."He didn't directly tell Felix abou

Just three days later, Tasha returned to the clinic. This time, she didn't even give Felix a day's notice, which was odd."Mrs. Sharpe, what's going on? Didn't you say no one would return until Mr. Wiley was cured?" Felix asked.Tasha smiled bitterly and explained, "It's a friend of mine. He came back from a business trip and heard about you. He happened to have a backache that couldn't be cured. He wants to come by immediately, and I couldn't stop him."After looking at Tasha's expression, Felix guessed, "He's your friend, but he's a powerful man, right?"She nodded and said, "Yes, in fact, the reason why I'm able to run the company so smoothly over the years had a lot to do with this friend. He helped me a lot."It was no wonder Tasha couldn't stop him. Felix assured her, "Don't worry. I asked this because I'm a little curious. It's not because I'm afraid. As long as it's a patient, I'll treat him when he comes."She felt relieved and replied, "Oh, I do hope you can cure him.

Even though Edgar was rich, he froze in shock when he heard the price. That would make sense if the hospital used a fancy cutting-edge machine or newly developed medication. But Felix was asking for 100 million dollars just for two weeks of traditional medicine. "I'm not joking," Felix said. "You trust Mrs. Sharpe's word, so you should know I wouldn't try to cheat you. The truth is, it really is this expensive! "If you don't believe me about the two herbs, you can check their prices at Curio Clinic yourself." Edgar raised his hand right after Felix finished speaking. "It's fine. Like you said, with Mrs. Sharpe here, how could I doubt you? Even if it costs twice as much, I'd pay it if you could cure my back pain permanently." He was telling the truth—only someone who had experienced it firsthand could understand how the back pain had tortured him to such an extent. If it continued, he didn't know how much longer he could hold out before being driven insane. "Very well. Please

Elise asked sharply, "Has Deimos appeared?" To her, the biggest threat had always been her vicious sister Yuna and her evil schemes. "No, it's not that. I just saw someone from Black Widow Society meeting with Dr. Zeller," Trenton replied. Black Widow Society? Elise was dumbfounded for a moment. She could not see the connection between the Black Widow Society and Felix at all. "Slow down. What exactly happened? How are you sure they were from Black Widow Society?" Trenton gave a bitter smile. "I couldn't be certain, but I've seen this woman before. Her name is Zaria, and she's definitely from Black Widow Society." Elise remained skeptical. "That doesn't necessarily mean danger, does it? You know how Black Widow operates—they're swift and merciless. If they were really targeting Felix, would he still be peacefully working at his clinic?" This puzzled Trenton too, though he had his suspicions. "From their conversation and what I observed, it seems like Black Widow Society
