Chapter 5 Don't Provoke Him

  • If it weren't for such a status, how could one possibly possess the Dragon Phoenix Needle? It's a treasure symbolising the identity of Wonder Doctor.
  • What did Mr. Raven say?
  • Paige and the others were left puzzled by Arlo's attitude.
  • Even Mr. Raven displayed such deference ...
  • What level of prestige does this man possess?
  • "Mr. Raven, could there be a misunderstanding? The dragon's eyes on the Dragon Phoenix Needle are adorned with rubies, not black," Nora interjected with a chilly tone.
  • 3.5
  • However, Arlo remained unconvinced and offered an explanation.
  • "But did you know that after this needle changes owner, the dragon's eye will change colour?"
  • "Is that even possible?"
  • Nora exclaimed, her voice tinged with disbelief.
  • Arlo's tone turned grave.
  • "You are unaware because you have not yet met the owner of this needle!
  • "The Dragon Phoenix Needle exhibits seven colours.
  • "Black not only signifies its supreme divine power but also signifies absolute recognition by its owner! While black and red differ only in colour, their qualifications and talents differ by a thousand years!"
  • Gale grabbed Arlo's shoulders and gave him an appreciative glance.
  • "Old man, you sure know a lot! Very well. Stick with me from now on."
  • "Sir, you flatter me. I don't have such qualifications."
  • Arlo replied humbly, his demeanour filled with genuine fear.
  • Nora furrowed her brow.
  • She didn't believe Arlo was lying, but judging from Gale's demeanour, he didn't resemble an expert. Perhaps not even one-thousandth the skill of Wonder Doctor.
  • "Mr. Raven ... he's a total maniac!" muttered the group of nurses, trembling in fear.
  • Each one avoided him like the plague.
  • They were afraid that even a glance at Gale would draw his complete attention, quivering in fear.
  • "Outrageous!
  • "Who allowed you to insult him like this?" Arlo roared in anger.
  • The young nurses were silenced by the severity of his rebuke.
  • Nora pondered deeply with furrowed brows, deciding it was worth a try.
  • If this guy was indeed impersonating Wonder Doctor's disciple, the hospital wouldn't let him off the hook even without her intervention.
  • Once again, she offered an amount larger than before.
  • "15 million dollars!
  • "I'll give you another chance to prove your identity.
  • "If you can cure me, it will naturally prove the authenticity of your Dragon Phoenix Needle. Not only will you receive this 15 million in cash, but you'll also gain the support of the Wheeler family.
  • "If you can cure me, the Wheeler family will be your backing!"
  • Gale chuckled.
  • Meanwhile, Arlo was taken aback.
  • Nora's ability to build such a large business on her own demonstrated her capability. But how could she say such thoughtless words?
  • Making the Wheeler family the backing for the successor of Wonder Doctor?
  • Would such a person need backing?
  • All the families in Rockville combined wouldn't qualify to speak such words!
  • "I won't treat you."
  • Gale shook his head decisively.
  • "What did you say?"
  • Nora's brow furrowed completely.
  • "I said, no treatment!
  • "Miss, do we have any relationship? Are you my sister or my wife?
  • "Why should I save you?"
  • With a casual turn, he strode back to his office.
  • Unable to find his fiancée, staying here held little interest for him. He might as well focus on how to excel as the director of gynaecology and find a few more beautiful women to marry.
  • "Haha, he's just feeling guilty."
  • Nora goaded, pretending to provoke him.
  • "I gave you the chance, yet you reject it!"
  • "Once you've missed me, you won't find another man like me."
  • Gale retorted in one sentence.
  • "There are plenty of men in the world!
  • "Remember your words now!" Nora shouted angrily.
  • Watching Gale's departing figure, Nora didn't think much of it.
  • She had planned to visit Gianna to address her own health concerns, but an urgent call from her grandfather insisted she return immediately. Thus, she had to leave the hospital.
  • Arlo didn't interfere much either.
  • He began to scold the nurses standing there.
  • "From today onwards, that gentleman earlier is your direct supervisor! Anyone who dares to provoke him again can pack up and leave."
  • "But Grandpa Raven ... "
  • Paige clung to his arm with a look of grievance.
  • Arlo sighed helplessly.
  • "Paige, what's the matter again?"
  • "That j*rk just now harassed me! He not only touched my thigh but also my chest. Can you please help me get rid of him?" Paige reported.
  • "Paige, I strongly advise you not to provoke him any further!"
  • Arlo looked at her sternly, giving a grave warning, "If things escalate, not only I, but even your family won't be able to protect you!"
  • Paige was left speechless, wide-eyed in shock.
  • Arlo had always been close to the Morrison family, having cradled her since childhood with nothing but indulgence.
  • But this time ...
  • "Paige, remember my words! Even if you act wilfully and recklessly in the hospital, I will protect you. But if you harm him, absolutely not!"
