Just as Anna Coleman’s punch was about to hit Alex Rockefeller, Alex leaned to one side slightly and struck her wrist at lightning speed with a single finger.Anna felt as if a hammer had struck her wrist. Her entire arm went numb.However, she wouldn’t give up because she had such a hot temper.If her first punch didn’t work, she would try again.“Dragon-Tusk: Seven Deaths.”This technique was even more formidable than the last one. It happened so quickly that it seemed like all seven punches were thrown at him at once.However, Alex was able to observe all of them in time.He blocked all of them as he did before but decided against striking back.It wasn’t because his heart softened at the sight of Anna’s beauty. Instead, it was because he could tell that Anna’s Dragon-Tusk Punch really was quite powerful. He couldn’t bring himself to interrupt her, and he wanted to observe and carefully study her technique so that he might learn it.Hence, the battle continued with Anna att
Alex Rockefeller had a strange expression on his face.“Divine Constabulary? What on earth is that?” He asked.The only thing he could associate Divine Constabulary with was a drama called ‘The Four’, but it was entirely fictional. How could it appear in the real world?“It’s not that Divine Constabulary, but I reckon it’s not too far from it. You can think of her as an ancient guard or a government official. She oversees some weird things. Don’t mind her. Think of her as traffic police,” Michelle Yowell said.Alex was rather shocked. This was the first time he had heard about such a department in the government.“What is she doing here? Not only did she barge into the Yowell family’s place, but she even attacked you. Isn’t that a little too much? Can people from Divine Constabulary do whatever they want?” Alex asked.Michelle rubbed her temples. “That’s not because she’s from Divine Constabulary. It’s because we have never gotten along as kids. She lived around here when she was
“Are you putting the blame on me?”The old man glared.Anna Coleman angrily spoke, “Do you have any idea who you are talking to? He is the Imperial Doctor, the man whose hands raised the dead—Wallace Yoke! How dare you disrespect him. Apologize, now!”Alex Rockefeller looked at Anna calmly with his hands behind his back. On the contrary, Keith Yowell was extremely surprised. Struggling to sit up, he looked at Wallace admiringly and said, “Doctor Yoke, what brings you here? It is my utmost pleasure!”As he spoke, he gave Wallace a salute and a slight bow.To which Wallace replied, “It is my pleasure too, Mr. Yowell! You are not feeling well, please, do not force yourself!”Colin Yowell added, “Grandpa, Anna brought Doctor Yoke here to treat you all the way from North Tokyo! I am sure you will feel better in no time!”“Indeed. Doctor Yoke is a well-known and reputable doctor here and abroad. Unlike a certain someone here who is nothing but a quack. Grandpa Yowell, I heard that h
“Argh!”“Grandpa! What is going on? Are you okay?”Colin Yowell was extremely distressed to see Keith Yowell spitting out blood, clasping his chest and gasping for air. His face was as pale as a sheet of paper and twisted in immense pain.The Yowells present were frightened.While Anna Coleman quickly turned to Wallace Yoke and asked, “Sir, what is going on? Why is he spitting blood?”Wallace looked on gravely.As the Imperial Doctor, he truly deserved the title. Unfortunately, Alex Rockefeller’s Seven Elements was not something any regular human being could fathom.“Do not worry, this is the bad blood in his body. He should feel better after it is out of his system.” Wallace made a quick deduction and explained.He was revered highly and his explanation instantly soothed many worried hearts.Anna smiled. “Doctor Yoke is indeed the Imperial Doctor we admire! See how he made Grandpa Yowell throw up all the bad blood in his body with a simple treatment. Are you feeling better no
They hurriedly ran out of the gates.However, Alex Rockefeller was nowhere to be seen.“Michelle, quick! Dial his number!”Five minutes later, Alex once again, appeared in front of Keith Yowell.He was willing to return for two reasons. The first was as a return of Jack Trent’s favor and the other was Michelle’s unrelenting plea.Otherwise, Keith would have died.Anna Coleman and Alex met again. She wasn’t as smug as she was before, presumably because she had been castigated by the Yowells. However, she still gave Alex an unfriendly look.“Shoo!”Alex returned Anna’s sentiment with one word.It took no time for Alex to realize what went wrong with Keith. The situation was dire, just as he expected when he left just now.He lightly jabbed his finger on his chest, where the heart was located. Wallace Yoke was shocked by Alex’s maneuver. He was confused and could not fathom what he was doing.It was the Seven Needles of Life Extension.The last time he performed it, he finis
Anna Coleman stood next to Wallace Yoke.She looked at him with a cold gaze, as if she was born better off than everyone else.Alex Rockefeller could not help but laugh in his heart. No wonder Michelle Yowell did not like her.If Colin Yowell decided to marry her, it would only serve as the beginning of headaches and troubles at home.His gaze shifted from Anna to Wallace. “How may I help you, sir?”Wallace was slightly eager as he said, “Mr. Rockefeller, I have some knowledge in medicine and treating people but I have never seen anything like what you did just now. Would you be so kind to explain the workings behind your treatment?”He was extremely polite and talked to Alex in a slight bow.The medical community would be shocked to find out that the Imperial Doctor spoke to an unknown person with such respect and admiration.“The inner workings?” Michelle snickered. “Why should he tell you? What if you are trying to steal the knowledge for your own use?”Wallace was embarras
“You don’t look good, what happened? Did the old lady wreak havoc in the company again?”Claire Assex immediately noticed Dorothy’s unusual demeanor. “Hey, didn’t Rockefeller say that he was going to get the permit for you? Did he lie to us and got a fraudulent document instead? What a fool!“Where is he? I am going to give him a smackdown he will never forget!”Dorothy suddenly realized that returning home earlier was a bad decision on her part.“Why are you so anxious, mom? The company is doing just fine.”“So, the old lady wasn’t there?”“She was but with Alex’s permit, there was nothing she could do. Instead, we obtained a competitive advantage that will allow us to increase our profits!”Claire was thrilled. “Are you sure?”“Of course! Mom, stop criticizing Alex for once! Without his help, we would have been done for!”“Hmph! He is your husband, right? He did what was expected from him.“Look, it has been a while since he came home. Where the hell is he? I have to do all
Finding himself a way out, Alex Rockefeller had Michelle Yowell drop him off at a street, a few blocks away from Maple Villa.He did not want her to visit him just whenever she wanted to.After the previous incident where he saved Keith Yowell from imminent death, he believed that Keith would do something big to express his gratitude. Michelle seemed to be the key to that gift.“Alex!”Michelle hollered as he got out of the car.“Yes, anything I can help with?”“My grandfather’s life all depends on you now. You really must cure him! I know I didn’t really give you the best impression, to begin with, but I’m trying my best to change the way you see me. Please!” Michelle clutched her hands in front of her chest as she cried out exasperatedly. “I’ve lost both my parents when I was just a little girl, and I cannot lose my grandfather too!”Seeing how teary Michelle had become, Alex reassured gently, “Don’t worry. I will try my best.”“Thank you, Alex. Well...say, can I be your frie
