Xyla Quest also knew what Adam Shaw was thinking. She also didn’t want to say too much in public.Instead, Xyla chuckled. “Let’s go to the buffet restaurant upstairs and have a chat. It’s been too long. We ought to catch up. I’m sure this is fine, right?” Xyla asked.Adam hesitated for a moment. After that, he nodded.To be honest, if it was possible, he hoped he hadn’t bumped into Xyla today.If that were the case, she wouldn’t see him in such a downtrodden state.To Adam, his pride was more important than his life.He didn’t want his friend to see him in such a poor state. It hurt his ego a lot.When the woman saw this, she instantly grabbed his hand. “Adam… Actually, I didn’t cheat on you… It was all a misunderstanding…” She said carefully.Adam found it ironic that this woman was behaving like this. How would he not know why she had such a sudden change in attitude?Wasn’t it merely because she felt that Xyla could help him recover his former state? Hehe… Such a materialis

Adam Shaw let out a long, helpless sigh. “I’ll have to start from the very beginning…“Our house went through reconstruction before. We were offered over three million dollars to migrate. After my parents died, they left all this money behind for me.“Back then, Shirley, who’s my girlfriend, and I were in a stable relationship. On top of that, I really loved her too much.“That’s why I gave her my card. After getting the money, she liked going to high-end places, and she liked buying Hermes purses, on top of paying off her father’s gambling debt…“Because I loved her, I allowed her to do anything she wanted. But soon, they ended up spending all my savings.“Although I was unhappy about it, I loved her too much, and I couldn’t leave her. That’s why I didn’t blame her.“After all my savings were spent, I still worked in a hospital as a doctor. Moreover, I also worked part-time as someone else’s private doctor.“Hence, we were still able to get by. Her life wasn’t significantly aff

Xyla Quest was reluctantly reminded of her past.Back then, wasn’t she also in such a situation when she still loved Tom Sullivan?To make him love her, she had given him everything she had to offer…Meanwhile, her relationship also ended up very much like how Adam Shaw’s relationship turned out.In the end, they were both insulted and tossed away by the person they had loved with all their heart…When Xyla looked at Adam now, she felt as if she was looking at her past self. She was able to relate to all of this for they had experienced the same thing,Xyla also understood how sad and helpless Adam felt right now.After putting down the empty wine bottle, Adam laughed bitterly as he cried. “Tell me… Wasn’t I good to her? I feel that I have treated her in the best way possible.“I was so good to her. Why did she do this to me? Tell me, how could a person be this heartless?” Adam murmured.“Is it wrong for someone to be completely devoted to another person?” Adam continued to

Xyla Quest wasn’t surprised at all after hearing what Adam Shaw said.Adam’s character was like this. He was so good that nobody could complain about him.He never asked for anything in return when he helped another person.In fact, he never thought of getting any benefits from the people he helped.Silently, Xyla took out a blank check from her purse. After that, she signed fifty million dollars on it and pushed it over to Adam.When Adam saw the massive figure on the check, he instantly shook his head. With a determined look on his face, he pushed the check back to Xyla. “No… I can’t take it… How could I take fifty million dollars from you? My efforts back then weren’t even worth fifty million dollars…”Xyla laughed. “I’m lending you this money. Set up a private hospital with this money… I believe that, with your medical skills and your capabilities, you’ll definitely be able to make your hospital popular. When you make enough money, you can return the money to me with added in

Xyla Quest had given Adam Shaw a second chance at life.“Tell me, what’s the name of the rich kid who bullied you previously?” Xyla asked.“Cody Lester…”Xyla found this name awfully familiar.After carefully thinking about it, she finally recalled. This person’s father was the owner of the second-largest hospital franchise in the country, Lester Hospital. His name was Cayden Carose.Cayden’s parents were both people who were akin to the royal family.That explained why Cayden’s son could boycott Adam in the entire country right away.However, although the Lester family was powerful, they were nothing compared to the Batton family.Xyla remarked to herself to avenge Adam on this.If Cody Lester offended Adam, that meant he offended Xyla…Right then, the waiters placed the stuff they ordered on the table, including a two-sectioned pot and a bunch of ingredients…Soon, the entire table was filled…After igniting the fire under the pot, a waiter left with the rest. The large p

“I’m renting a place outside with her now. Since we’ve broken up, I’ll have to move out.“I’ll still need to look for a place to stay for the next two days. Apart from that, I’m working as a waiter in a hotel.“If I want to set up a hospital, I’ll need to resign first. There are a lot of things I need to do.“Resigning is easy. I can get it done at a moment’s notice. However, finding a place to stay is difficult. It’ll take a few days,” Adam Shaw explained in detail.“Oh, I forgot about this. You don’t have to look for a place. I have many houses… I can allow you to stay in one of them for the time being,” Xyla Quest said.“Of course, it won’t be for free. You’ll have to pay me rent. It’ll be five thousand dollars a month,” Xyla added.Knowing her personality, she knew that Adam would surely refuse if she said he could stay there for free.Hence, she decided to charge him some money.“Okay…” Adam immediately nodded.Naturally, Adam knew what Xyla was thinking. He was feeling i

A red Maserati and a row of black Porsche Cayenne stopped neatly in front of the hotel’s entrance…Xyla didn’t seem like she was about to leave the car.She slowly turned to look at Adam Shaw. “You go ahead… I’ll wait for you here,” she said.Adam nodded.After that, he quickly got out of the car and walked into the hotel with his head lowered the entire time…As soon as he entered the hotel, he saw Cody Lester walking toward the entrance with a group of bodyguards grandly.Cody walked in the forefront. His hair was very short, and he was wearing a loose, oversized, black T-shirt with matching torn, black jeans.He had flowery tattoos on his left arm, and there was a tiny diamond earring on his left ear.At one glance, one could tell Cody was a ruthless man who loved his freedom.As soon as Cody looked up, he saw Adam.Suddenly, his facial expression turned dark…Meanwhile, Adam’s facial expression also turned dark.Adam didn’t say anything. He looked down and continued wal

“Ahem…” Adam Shaw coughed yet again.Although it was impossible to bear, he still had to bear it.His fists couldn’t possibly clench any tighter!“Adam, why aren’t you speaking? Are you deaf? Can’t you hear that I’m speaking to you?” Cody Lester spoke arrogantly again.Adam took a deep breath, and he tried his best to suppress his rage. “What exactly do you want? I have something urgent to do. I hope you’ll get out of the way…”Cody immediately started laughing loudly. “Get out of the way… Why should I get out of the way? I’m not in a good mood today. That’s why I want to find something fun to do with you.”Earlier tonight, Cody was gambling with a group of people upstairs in a private room…He had had terrible luck.In an hour, he had lost over thirty million dollars…Now, Cody was in a terrible mood.When he saw someone he could easily bully coming his way, he naturally wanted to vent his frustration on that person.“Be forgiving when you can…” Adam continued to suppress h
