All Chapters of Sorry, Too Late: Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

Caleb had planned every single thing when it came to tonight's welcome banquet, and every step he had taken was purposeful.First, he had invited all the top-tier power players in Silverton so he could use this opportunity to announce Artemisia's return to them. This was to be her debut banquet, which would allow her to enter the Silverton elite circle. It was a way to get her face known and establish her presence.Second, he was confident in Artemisia's exceptional talent, so he had invited Evan as the most honored guest of the night. His goal was to formally introduce Artemisia as Evan's apprentice. He knew that she would undoubtedly achieve great things under Evan's tutelage, likely gaining the chance to break through the bottlenecks she'd been facing in the medical field so she could restore the ancient formula.Third, he wanted to give Artemisia a chance to build rapport with Evan. That was why he personally sent her to pick Evan up.In his opinion, the last step was the mos

"Move!" Sylvie shoved one of them aside before storming away.Anya stumbled from the push, her temper flaring instantly. "Who do you think you are? Do you think you can just walk away after pushing people to the ground?"She was about to chase after Sylvie when Hazel grabbed her arm. "Wait. Take a good look at her. Doesn't she look like someone we know?""Huh?" Roxanne and Anya froze at the same time.All three of them stared at Sylvie's retreating figure. The longer they looked, the more familiar it seemed."Isn't she the woman who kicked us out of the hospital that day?" one of them blurted out.They exclaimed almost in unison.The angry words Anya wanted to spew were promptly lodged in her throat.They had only met Sylvie once, but the impression she left was unforgettable.Her overwhelming beauty and presence made them feel dull by comparison. Coupled with her decisive, ruthless way of driving them out? Suffice it to say, her mere presence had sent a chill down their spine

What? Had Artemisia misheard him?She couldn't help but seriously wonder if something was wrong with her ears.Evan was the important guest her father had sent her to pick up? That man was also the mentor she was supposed to apprentice under?No way. Caleb had probably made a mistake. Yes, he definitely made a mistake.Hazel and the others had been talking about how ungrateful Evan was before she'd gone to pick up her "future" mentor.So, Artemisia was completely firm on her beliefs regarding his character. To her, she was nothing but a shameless and ungrateful loser.He was a leech who'd been clinging to the three heiresses and sucking them dry without a hint of shame.And now, she was being told that this "loser" was the honored guest she was supposed to escort—the man her father had been willing to slap her over.How was she supposed to accept that?"Dad, are you sure you aren't mistaken?" Artemisia blurted, her eyes as wide as saucers. "Evan is a terrible person! He's ungr

"What? Dad, is that Ms. Stanton?"Anya's eyes flew wide the moment she heard the name.Graham and Anya never would have imagined that Ivana would take the initiative to call them herself.Graham answered the phone, clearly nervous as he stammered, "M-Ms. Stanton, it's quite late. Is there something I can help you with?""Relax," Ivana said calmly. "I'm just calling to thank you."Graham froze when he heard her words."Thank me?""That's right. The drakeblood root you provided worked very well. Thank you."Graham was instantly overwhelmed with joy upon hearing those words.Anya, who had been standing nearby with her ear practically glued to the phone, was just as thrilled.Ivana had called out of nowhere just to thank them?They were completely floored."Oh, don't mention it! It was the least I could do," Graham said eagerly. "Ms. Stanton, you didn't have to call just to thank me."He kept bowing as he spoke, gripping the phone. "If I ever come across herbs like that again,

It was shocking. The miracle doctor they had been searching for all this time had been staying at Villa No. 1. He had been so close.Hazel and the others had once considered renting Villa No. 1. They had even contacted the previous owner. Unfortunately, they were later informed that the villa had a new owner. They never could figure out just who would be able to purchase Villa No. 1 just like that.They had thought about visiting, but Zeke's illness had always kept them from dropping by.Now, the mystery was finally revealed—the buyer had been the very doctor who had saved Gaius.The villa doors were still closed shut, but Caleb continued to wail at the top of his lungs, "I'm sorry! I've even brought my daughter, Artemisia, to apologize to you!"Hazel and Roxanne shivered where they stood.This was the doctor who had saved Gaius, the Iron Dragon of South Dominion. Yet, Caleb had treated him with such neglect. They couldn't believe the pressure and fear he was feeling at the momen
