Spending the night in a Presidential Suite as an apology?Wasn’t that a thinly-veiled invitation for them to get intimate?Two more months to their first wedding anniversary, but he had yet to do it.He could pretend not to bother, but as a man, how long could he keep his act up?“Sounds good!” Alex replied eagerly. “Should I get us some stuff?”“Stuff? What do we need?” Dorothy Assex asked coyly.“Of course! Well, some protection… or perhaps, there is a, you know, kink you want to try out?”“I… um… I gotta go. Here’s the address, come quick! I… I love you.” Dorothy’s heart was fluttering madly as she spoke those words, which she had never said before.Alex almost squealed in joy. He wanted to be at the Landison hotel as quick as his car could take him.However, he promised Cheryl Coney to check in on the patients. “Darling, do you mind waiting for a while? I have some matters to attend… at home. I will be there latest, by, say, nine-thirty?”“Okay!”Dorothy gingerly placed
Surrounded by so many people, Cheryl Coney found it extremely difficult to navigate out of the crowd. She yelled but to little effect as some even tried to take advantage of the chaos to touch her inappropriately.Alex Rockefeller let out a soft grunt, immediately releasing his Chi in a three-meter radius around his body. Nudged by a strong, invisible force, the crowd was pushed aside as they cleared the way for Alex and Cheryl.Upon entering Cheryl’s office, Alex suddenly remembered that his phone was running out of battery. Afraid that he could not contact Dorothy later, he asked Cheryl to charge his phone.Moments later, a nurse came rushing by.“Doctor Coney, the experts are here. Assistant Director Rashford wants you to attend the meeting.”“Will be there.” Cheryl then turned her gaze toward Alex. “Why don’t you come with me too?”Alex had no objections.Before they left, Cheryl put on a doctor’s gown on Alex so he could pretend to be her assistant. There were a dozen peo
Everyone instantly looked toward Cheryl Coney and Alex Rockefeller.As a doctor of the hospital and head of wards, they knew who Cheryl was. As for the man beside her, however…“I don’t think I have seen this doctor before. Have you?”“No, is he new here?”Of course, with Cheryl being James Coney’s granddaughter, she wasn’t worried at all that Alex’s identity would be exposed.Nevertheless, Clarence Fawl looked at Alex with an unfriendly gaze. “I suppose you know something, my friend? Can you tell us what it was, and perhaps introduce yourself?”Alex shook his head. “I have not seen the patients, so I have no comments.”“Since you have not seen them, I wonder why you’ve been allowed to attend the meeting? This is an emergency meeting, and we do not want any distractions,” said Clarence with feigned surprise.Meanwhile, assistant director Rashford went right up to Alex’s face and stared him down. “Who are you? Do you work here?”“No, I do not,” Alex answered.“Well then, how d
The crowd looked at Alex Rockefeller’s wrist, and lo and behold, it really was a Patek Phillipe watch.Yet, the clothes on his body were cheap, mass-produced merchandise. The watch didn’t match his look at all.And then, they came to a realization.Alex wasn’t a doctor but a conman who managed to trick Cheryl with his fake watch and identity. As the prettiest doctor in the hospital, Cheryl was wildly popular among the male doctors.“I have never seen a conman who could scam his way into a hospital’s meeting! Get out; we don’t want you here!”“Isn’t that right? Doctor Coney, you have to be careful of whom you talk to!”“You know what, we have no right interfering in your personal life. But, it’s outrageous that you bring non-medical personnel into the conference room!”A doctor, whose opportunity of being the department head had been shattered by Cheryl, could not stop criticizing.Alex looked at his wristwatch, not realizing that it would become a target of derision.“This is
‘What?’‘Mr. Yoke addressing him as ‘sir’? How old is this guy anyway? What makes him so special?’‘A liar, he’s nothing but a liar! He’s tricked both Cheryl and Mr. Yoke. I’ll definitely expose your lies!’Clarence’s thoughts roared in his heart. His expressions were twisted, the corners of his mouth twitched uncontrollably.It was something he couldn't accept completely.Cheryl, who was standing at the side, was extremely shocked too. Wallace’s reputation far exceeded her grandfather’s, not to mention that the two elderly men were somewhat acquainted too. James had mentioned multiple times that he was no match for Wallace. His title as the best imperial doctor was well deserved.‘Even such an amazing doctor referred to Alex as ‘Sir.’ Just how skilled could Alex be?’Cheryl’s heart pounded, her eyes filled with admiration. She continued to stare at Alex with a gentle gaze.The dean, Lucifer North, was stunned as well. He rushed over and asked, “Mr. Yoke, this is…”Wallace rep
After such a thought, she felt slightly embarrassed. Alex was a married man after all.Alex chuckled. “Oh don’t joke with me, Mr. Yoke. I’m married.”Wallace replied, “So what if you’re married? You can always get a divorce, right? And if you can’t, you can change your nationality to become Arabian. I have connections to help with that.”Both Alex and Cheryl fell silent.‘This old man is such a jester.’Within just a few moments, they arrived at the patients’ ward.Since all of these patients were filed as special cases, they were all placed together in one ward. This was more convenient for the medics responsible for their checkups.The first patient that they saw was a petite young girl.Next to her was her mother. Her mother’s eyes were red, she seemed to be on the edge of a mental breakdown. Who wouldn’t treasure their children? Having her daughter fall victim to such disaster, she felt as if the world was collapsing in front of her eyes. “Her name is Rose Carson, a stude
“She’s alive, she’s revived! She’s actually revived!”“How did he do it? This doctor is amazing! I thought she was dead for sure!” The family of other patients rushed over as soon as Rose’s heart started beating again. They pointed, and hush chattering quickly surrounded her bed.Cheryl stopped them. “Please be quiet and give the patient some space.”Alex was able to sense the culprit within Rose’s body, an extremely odd and hidden deadly Chi.It was this flow of deadly Chi that was destroying her body little by little. Her body was already weak as she was drained of Yin, and this flow of Chi had pulled her into the depths of hell.Cheryl could tell that Alex’s expression was grim, as she quickly asked, “What wrong? Did you figure something out? Can she be cured despite her condition?”Alex, however, didn’t answer any of her questions. He replied with another question instead. “Have the cops arrested the culprit?”Cheryl shook her head. “I don’t think so.”Wallace added. “I hea
However, some of them were only there to see Alex go down with humiliation, especially Clarence. After being slapped by Wallace, he couldn’t hold in his anger.“That Rockefeller guy must be a liar. He’s really skilled in his tricks. I have no idea how he managed to trick Mr. Yoke.” He said, visibly annoyed. He walked over to the two middle-aged men who came with Wallace and asked, “Do you know anything about that guy?”The two men were Wallace’s apprentices, and they were just as confused as well, as they have never seen Alex before. On the contrary, their master had always treated them harshly, supposedly as part of the training. Yet here he was, showing such adoration toward a young man, and they found it unacceptable.One of them shook their heads. “This is the first time we’re meeting him. We didn’t know that our country had such a young, capable expert.”Clarence said, “Then I was right. This guy must have used some sort of trick and fooled Mr. Yoke. He could've used voodoo fo
