Alex Rockefeller wasnât exactly a fool. He knew right away what was on Keith Yowellâs
mind.
Alex had pretended to be a Grandmaster, forced the Pattingson family into submission,
and made Nathan Pattingson his slave.
Keith couldnât wait to make Michelle Yowell pretty again and tie her to Alexâs bed.
After that, Keith would be able to keep Alex around the Yowell family. Unfortunately,
Keith made his intentions too obvious, and even if Alex was to sleep with a woman, it
wouldnât be Michelle.
Alex hadnât even slept with his own wife, Lady Dorothy Assex!
âBring the medicinal herbs to me. Iâll get you after Iâm done crafting,â Alex said. âTry to
gather the other herbs as soon as you can.
Your energy core has been damaged. The
earlier it recovers, the better it is. Otherwise, once the ailment takes form, your
foundations will become unstable. Itâll affect you greatly in the future,â Alex said.
âDonât worry. Iâve already informed everyone from the entire country to gather those
ingredients. Besides, in seven days, a conference for exchanging precious medicinal
herbs would be held.
Not only will there be auctions, but free trade will also be allowed.
You should come and have a look when the time comes,â Michelle said.
âSure!â Alex returned home with the medicinal herbs.
After eating, he started crafting Michelleâs medicinal clay. Two hours later and he had
completed crafting the scar removal medicinal clay. He kept it in a container and placed
it in the fridge.
Suddenly, he heard a girlâs laughter.
After paying closer attention, he realized that it actually came from the swinnning pool.
Maya Howards and Waltz Fleur were there swimming.
Dressed in pretty bikinis, their sexy and attractive bodies were every manâs wildest
dreams.
âThat⦠Iâve been sweating a lot. May I join you?â Alex asked weakly while he stared at
the two beautiful mermaids.

The next day, at Golden Manorâs villa area.
After her morning jog in the area, Serena Wai returned home to take a bath. She then
hat she discovered a black spot the size of a copper coin below her belly button. At first,
she thought it was dirt of some sort, but she couldnât wash it off no matter what.
In fact, it hurt when she touched it.
âWhat is it? Is it a bruise?â
She suddenly remembered what Alex said when he was leaving yesterday. Her heart
immediately clenched, but she quickly dismissed the idea. Alex wasnât a god. How could
he predict a situation of this sort?
Today, Serena made an appointment with Californiaâs miracle doctor, James Coney, to
check on her medical condition.
Thatâs right. She had come all the way to California to see James Coney.
At half-past nine, she made her way to Ganoderma. After James met her, he spent half
a day checking her pulse. In the end, he shook his head. âMs. Wai, Iâm sorry. Iâm afraid
that with my lesser medical skills, I canât seem to determine whatâs wrong with your
pulse. Iâve never seen this before, and I canât help you,â James said.
âWhat?
Did you just say that youâve never seen this and that you canât help me?â
Serena raised her voice.
âAre you kidding me? Arenât you Californiaâs miracle doctor? How could you not have
seen this? Do you even know how to cure people of their sicknesses? Could you be
actually a fraud?â she growled.
Right about then, Chery Coney came to their side. âMiss, please watch your tone. Of
course, my grandfather isnât a fraud. But sometimes, a personâs capability has its
limitations. Thereâs not a single doctor that can claim he cures all types of illnesses! If
itâs cancer, thereâs really nothing my grandfather can do,â Cheryl said.
ââWhat? How dare you curse me?â Serena yelled.
âSmack!â Serena was enraged, slapping Cheryl hard across her face.
Cheryl took a step back. Shocked and furious, she cried, âHow could you hit me?â
âNot only do I have the guts to hit you, but I also have the guts to tear this lousy clinic
down! Would you believe it? I came all the way from Hong Kong, thinking that a miracle
doctor actually exists. Turns out heâs a quack. Indeed, people who practice traditional
medicine are all frauds,â she yelled in a fit of rage.
James seemed furious. âSomeone, throw this person out!â
Ganoderma had its own security guards, and two of them immediately came over.
In the endâ¦
Bang, bang!
Both security guards were instantly knocked down by Serenaâs bodyguards.
âTear this lousy clinic down!â Serena ordered loudly.
So one of her bodyguards ran out and started tearing the sign down.
Coincidentally, a young man entered and kicked the guard, sending him flying before
crashing down on Serena.
Knocked to the ground, Serena screamed in anger.
