Semua Bab Divorced and Dominant: Now You Cry?: Bab 151 - Bab 160

Kayla was frantic. Out of the corner of her eye, she'd noticed Neil leading Ashton in, but she didn't pay them any attention at all. She simply couldn't understand why Lawrence was insisting on meeting Ashton even in this condition.Did he really believe Ashton possessed some kind of unparalleled medical skill?That was impossible!Christian carefully removed a few silver needles from Lawrence's body. Frowning, he eventually sighed and shook his head, saying, "Mr. Clarkson Senior's condition is extremely complicated. "Strictly from a medical perspective, his body should've given out long ago. The fact that he's held on until now is already a miracle. With my meager abilities, I'm afraid there's nothing more I can do for him.""How could this be…"Kayla felt her heart sink. Christian wasn't the first renowned doctor to tell her that. All of the famous doctors they'd consulted in the past said Lawrence's condition was beyond the help of medical professionals."All I can do now i

Upon seeing the grave look on Ashton's face, Christian sneered. "Judging from your acupuncture technique, you do seem to know a bit of medicine. But if you think that tiny bit of skill lets you show off in front of real doctors, then you're underestimating the best medical experts of Casoria."At least a dozen top-tier doctors have thoroughly examined Mr. Clarkson Senior's condition. You can stop wasting time on attempting a pointless diagnosis. Doing so will only worsen Mr. Clarkson Senior's health!"Turning to Lawrence, he continued, "What you need the most now is peace and rest, Mr. Clarkson Senior! I'll provide you with some medicine to help with that. You should tell this young man here to stop. Don't drag out this folly!""You've caused enough trouble, Ashton! It's time for you to stop. If Grandpa's condition worsens because of you, I'll make sure you have hell to pay!" Kayla called out.Clay chimed in, "Some people sure love trying to make a show just to get attention."How

Christian completely lost his composure. Only those in the medical field knew the significance of the Ninefold Arcane Technique. It was the crowning glory of Casoria's medical legacy.Several decades ago, when Casoria's medical legacy was in decline, a middle-aged man used the Ninefold Arcane Technique to outperform all other medical experts worldwide, earning the title of medical genius and restoring Casoria's prestige. Unfortunately, the Ninefold Arcane Technique only made a brief reappearance, for that mysterious man vanished right after, never to be seen again.Yet that one day remained the most brilliant moment for Casoria's medical legacy, leaving a mark so deep that Christian had never forgotten it.His life's goal was to revive the Ninefold Arcane Technique!Alas, even though he dedicated his entire life to this dream, he didn't even manage to scratch the surface of this technique. He couldn't even master the most basic level of it!Thus, how could he not be thrilled tha

Christian devoted his entire life to the pursuit of medical excellence. He didn't care about anything else. He would readily serve Ashton without a word of dissatisfaction if it meant being able to master the Ninefold Arcane Technique."Please get up, Dr. Donahue. I have no intention of taking on a mentee," Ashton said, shaking his head.Christian felt his heart sink. Tears streamed down his face as he pleaded, "Those who are more capable should be recognized as mentors! I, Christian Donahue, have dedicated my life to the study of the Ninefold Arcane Technique."If I fail to become your mentee, it will be the greatest regret of my life. I cannot die in peace! Please grant me this wish, Dr. Gray!"His words were earnest as he added humbly, "If you accept me as your mentee, Dr. Gray, I will serve you faithfully for the rest of my life. I will give all my wealth to you, obey all your commands, and never question your orders. Please allow me this honor!"Christian kept his head bowed

Ashton could feel the warmth of Kayla's soft body and the delicate curve of her waist under his hand, but all he could do was sigh inwardly.Lawrence was very obviously setting him up, but what choice did he have? As the deputy head of the Legion, he had to step forward and help out. He couldn't possibly let Kayla marry Clay and become a part of the Dominion Vanguard.Besides, he didn't like Clay anyway. He was more than happy to team up with Lawrence and humiliate someone as conceited as Clay."You… you people…"Clay's veins popped in anger, his face twisted. He felt as though he'd been cheated on. Never had he suffered such humiliation before.He was already set to become the future head of the Dominion Vanguard!"This joke is going too far, Mr. Clarkson Senior!" Felix's tone became rather icy."Why would I be interested in joking with you?" Lawrence retorted scornfully. "That's enough. It's time for you guys to go. Since I'm not feeling too well, pardon me for not showing you
