Chapter 16 - Chapter 16 - You Despicable Creature

Hannah Young managed to remain calm, though she couldn't initially accept the reality, she knew this wasn't a dream!

At this moment, her father's eyes were filled with vitality, as if he'd survived a calamity.

This is an emotion only humans possess!

Father has truly awakened!

Her mind suddenly recalled the silhouette of that young man.

Lonely yet indifferent.

"He... he actually cured him... How is this possible..."

Only at this moment did Hannah realize how naive she had been.

From the beginning, that man hadn't been lying!

Yet she'd always thought of him as a swindler.

And failed to stand by him when he needed it most!

Hannah covered her mouth, trying not to scream; her eyes were wet, tears streaming down her cheeks to the floor.

Meanwhile, inside the hospital room, her mother and father were tightly embracing each other.

"Megan, isn't this a dream? Can you pinch me?"

Samuel Thompson reached out to wipe his wife's tears: "Zena, this isn't a dream, I'm truly alive again! By the way! Where is the Divine Doctor? Where is he? I must thank him properly, if it weren't for him, I'd likely be dead by now..."

Samuel Thompson, though in a coma, felt the presence of David Johnson and experienced the entire rescue process.

It was truly a work of art!

Like A Celestial God descended!

Such a person, even if you can't befriend them, you absolutely cannot become enemies!

He who can control your fate can control others' lives!

These people are destined to be above power!

But Samuel's question went unanswered, the room was eerily silent, one could hear a pin drop.

Father realized something was wrong, his face darkened instantly: "Can any of you give me an explanation!"

Finally, Hannah stepped forward and recounted everything that had happened.

Upon hearing it all, her father, disregarding his injuries, stood up and with all his strength, slapped his brother across the face!

"Bastard! You despicable creature! You... you actually angered the Divine Doctor away! You worthless piece of trash! Do you wish for my death before you're satisfied! From today onwards, don't expect a dime from me, you're no longer my son, Samuel Thompson!"

Douglas panicked, truly panicked!

His father's anger was something he couldn't bear!

His sports car, his women, his luxurious lifestyle, all were controlled by his father!

But now, with his father's single statement, he had nothing!

"No, Dad, I know I was wrong!"

Samuel Thompson ignored his son, eyeing the humbled Divine Doctor, Cho.

"And you!"

He then kicked Divine Doctor Cho!

"A bunch of blind fools, how dare you insult the Divine Doctor, I tell you, if you cannot find this Divine Doctor, I swear, you're all doomed!"

Samuel Thompson was really enraged!

Though he's awake, he knows he won't live past three days!

If that Divine Doctor doesn't act, he is certain to die!

The most pressing matter now is to find that Divine Doctor!

"Find, everyone, go find him! Search all of Brooksdale to find him! Everyone except Zena, get out of the Thompson household! Martinez't return until you find the Divine Doctor!"

These words weren't just directed at Douglas and Divine Doctor Cho!

They're also directed at Hannah and Christine!

If anyone had stood up to believe in the Divine Doctor earlier, things would have concluded differently!

A life, is sixty million too expensive?

No, it's not!

In fact, it's too cheap!

Because Samuel Thompson can earn a billion in a month!

But now!

He, Samuel Thompson, can only live for three days!

...

Meanwhile, at the lavish Apex Ventures boardroom.

The atmosphere was particularly heavy.

Because just a few hours ago, the stock price of Apex Ventures plummeted, marking the greatest crisis Jessica Brown faced since founding Lopez.

A PR investigation at Apex Ventures indicated the stock drop was caused by a rival, Nova Beauty Group, launching a beauty oral liquid that promised significant changes in skin and appearance after one treatment.

Although the beauty oral liquid hasn't launched yet, during the live launch event, some reporters who tried the samples showed mild changes.

These seemingly slight changes, mean the world to women!

External predictions suggested Nova Beauty Group is capable of revolutionizing the beauty industry, leaving Apex Ventures, the current top in Northridge Province, trailing behind.

Since its inception, Apex Ventures has relied on beauty oral liquids to stay atop the industry, with its prime revenue coming from these liquids in recent years. Now, a rival from Silverwood has developed an even more superior product, pushing them to the edge!

Sarah Moore arrived early, gathered information in a group chat en route, and noticed on her left were many rarely-seen executives, while to her right sat core members of Apex Ventures's R&D department.

This core group is extraordinary, including professors from the Capital Medical University, members from families of traditional Chinese medicine, and even medical giants!

Yet their faces were stern, understanding that they'll be the first to be held accountable once Jessica Brown arrives at the boardroom!

The boardroom was noisy, people incessantly trying to engage Sarah Moore, but she showed little interest, with David Johnson's silhouette occupying her thoughts, clueless if David would return tonight.

Suddenly, Sarah remembered something, took out the napkin handed by David.

On it were scribbled some words she couldn't comprehend, seemingly herb names, only understanding the five large characters at the top "Basic Youth Pill".

Thinking back to David saying it's worth millions made her chuckle.

David even suggested she show it to the R&D department, which left her speechless.

R&D members are every bit titans in the medical world, how would they pay any attention to such an odd napkin?

Chances are, she, Sarah Moore, would become the laughingstock of Apex Ventures.

"Ugh, this guy is great in every way except being impractical," Sarah muttered to herself.

"Hey, Sarah, are you daydreaming about a man? You seem so absent-minded!"

Suddenly, a female voice startled Sarah.

Sarah glanced toward the source of the voice, her expression instantly soured, because the speaker was Apex Ventures's PR director, Danielle Fox.

She's been at Lopez for quite some time, getting along well with everyone except Danielle Fox.

The two were like water and fire, bickering every time they met.

Danielle, having recently hooked up with a wealthy businessman, flaunted it before Sarah, even questioning why Sarah hadn't dated anyone, suggesting despicable possibilities like being kept or being promiscuous; they even fought once.

Sarah rolled her eyes at Danielle, scoffing, "Whether I think about men, what's that got to do with you? Just mind your own business."

Danielle retorted shamelessly, "Oh, a kept woman like you still has the audacity to speak? You flaunt yourself like this daily, I bet countless men have had their way with you."

"You—jerk!" Sarah was so furious she stood up, ready to curse, when she noticed the napkin in hand was snatched away by Danielle!
