Chapter 34 - Chapter 34 - Please Accept My Bow

The members of the Butler family were left in complete shock when they saw the crumpled bottle of mineral water and the black pills of unknown origin.

Is this really something one can consume?

Whether it's clean or not is another question!

Even without any illness, consuming this would surely cause one!

But no one dared to stop David Johnson, because they knew that, across all of Eldoria, only the young man before them could save Samuel Thompson.

Samuel Thompson stared at the five pills, swallowing hard, wanting to speak but unable to say a word.

He wasn't afraid of the pills being problematic.

He was afraid of angering David Johnson in front of him!

This was the man who held control over his life!

"Are you going to take them or not? If not, I'll just take them back..." I said as I noticed the other was still hesitating.

Just as I was about to take the elixir away, Samuel Thompson excitedly said, "Mr. Johnson, I'll take them... I'll take them! Please, don't take them away!"

Having said that, he ignored whether the elixir was problematic, grabbed them all in one go, closed his eyes, and swallowed them.

The moment he swallowed them, a rich medicinal effect spread throughout his body.

Samuel Thompson felt as though a warm current wrapped around his entire body, giving him an unprecedented sense of comfort.

"This..."

This feeling was something he had never experienced before!

Words could not even begin to describe it!

It was even more intense than the pleasures of love between a man and a woman!

"Mmm~"

Samuel Thompson, a man in his fifties, couldn't help but moan, utterly oblivious to how many people were watching him!

He just wanted to express it!

Gradually, he even found that the pain he had been enduring for years had vanished!

All of it vanished!

He opened his eyes and found the world to be incomparably bright, as if reborn!

"This... this is..."

Samuel Thompson's eyes were red! No one understood the overwhelming emotion in his heart at that moment!

He unhesitatingly reached out, gripping my hand tightly!

Although he didn't know what I had given him to consume!

With effects so miraculous, calling it an Immortal Pill wouldn't be an exaggeration!

With a thud, Samuel Thompson knelt directly in front of me.

"Mr. Johnson, please accept my bow as my reborn guardian from today!"

Samuel Thompson's pride, his authority, all shattered in my presence at this moment!

This scene shocked everyone present!

Mother Butler was dumbfounded!

Hannah Young instinctively covered her mouth.

The expressions on the Butler family members' faces looked as if they had seen a ghost!

Who was Samuel Thompson? He was the CEO of the Summit Group, a representative in Brooksdale, with countless titles to his name!

In all these years, they'd never seen Samuel Thompson shed a tear.

Nor had they ever witnessed him kneeling before anyone!

But all these impossibilities happened right before their eyes.

Everyone couldn't help but gaze at the somewhat stern man, questioning what kind of magic power he possessed to make such a powerful man willingly kneel!

I looked down at Samuel Thompson, nodding slightly: "Get up, you don't need to thank me. I saved you for money, you gave money, it's merely a transactional relationship."

Samuel Thompson realized he was somewhat losing face, hurriedly wiped tears with his sleeve, stood up, and took out a bank card and a key from his pocket.

"Mr. Johnson, this is your consultation fee, the password is six sixes, and this key is to a property I acquired near The Grandview Apartments, it has been vacant, and a waste is a waste, please accept it with a smile, the address is on the back of the key."

I thought for a moment and accepted them.

I did indeed need a place now, and later I had to go to Charity Hall to get some herbs, likely in significant numbers, I couldn't always transport them back to The Grandview Apartments.

Also, crafting medicinal herbs couldn't always be done in Sarah Moore' kitchen, it got in the way.

The key from Samuel Thompson perfectly solved my immediate dilemma.

Why not accept such an offer?

A property might only cost a few million, trivial compared to the consultation fee.

Samuel Thompson breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing me accept them.

He was a businessman, he valued profit, had a long-term vision, and knew what having someone like me meant.

I could cure his terminal illness, naturally I could cure others!

The significance of "others" extended far and wide.

From government leaders to the heads of nations!

If he didn't form connections with such a person now, when would he?

Of course, he didn't think a single key would earn the other's trust, the path ahead was long.

He suddenly glanced at his daughter, Hannah Young, the family's treasured princess, ranked highly in Brooksdale for beauty and figure.

Beauty is a disaster for heroes! If needed, Samuel Thompson wouldn't hesitate to offer his daughter to me!

He just didn't know if I was interested in his daughter, and this would depend on his daughter's fortune.

"Mr. Johnson, I wonder if I could invite you to lunch, I'd like to properly thank you, it's nothing else," Samuel Thompson suggested.

I hated such gatherings, naturally refusing: "I have matters to attend to, no need for a meal. For the next few days, eat light, the elixir needs a few days to fully integrate into your body, as for your disease, it shouldn't be a major issue anymore, our dealings end here."

Finished speaking, I was about to leave, suddenly recalling something.

This trip to Brooksdale, besides revenge, I wanted to regain The Apex Group my father built from scratch, after all, it was my father's hard work.

I vaguely remembered The Apex Group had declined, and after the Johnson Family incident, countless companies invaded.

These days I tried to learn more about The Apex Group online, with no substantial information obtained, and right now, Samuel Thompson being the founder of Summit Group in Brooksdale, must know the business environment of Brooksdale better than anyone.

Asking him was undoubtedly the best choice.

Just as Samuel Thompson sank in disappointment from being refused, I stopped and turned to Samuel Thompson: "You're considered my first patient, let me invite you for a meal. I'll choose the location, the time, tomorrow evening, are you available?"

These words had Samuel Thompson excitedly tongue-tied, finally gathering himself, hurriedly agreed: "Yes, yes, all up to Mr. Johnson."

"Then give me a call, I'll notify you," I said.

Samuel Thompson knew his fortunes turned and quickly instructed Hannah Young: "Hannah, give Mr. Johnson your number!"

"Why my number..."

Hannah Young barely spoke before catching her father's stern look and could only fetch paper and pen, writing down her number for me.

I glanced at the number, then walked towards the exit.

"Hannah, go see Mr. Johnson off..." Samuel Thompson instructed.

"Why is it always me..." Hannah Young felt a bit disgruntled, wondering why she seemed like a servant.

"No need to see me off, I'll catch a cab."

I left those words, disappearing from everyone's sight.
