“Yes, ma’am.”Scarlett said, “Set up a temporary department immediately. I need you to get people online to make appointments with Thea on the Doctor App. Pay each person who makes an appointment ten dollars. If they could make it to Medical Street, see Thea in person for a consultation and give her their vote, pay them a hundred dollars each.”“...”Quincy was stunned. She did not understand what Scarlett was trying to say.“Ma’am, what’s all this about?”Scarlett coughed awkwardly. “James wants to ensure Thea gets into the top 100 at the medical conference.”“Oh.”Quincy came to a realization. “I get it now.”Immediately, she put the plan into action.She was great at executing plans. Quickly, she set up a temporary department, recruiting a few hundred people from different departments in the company. All of them created their own chat group, each consisting of more than a thousand people.“Good news! Download the Doctor App now and search for Century Hospital. Select Dr. T
Chapter 520
Thea was enjoying her walk on Medical Street.All the big hospitals were full of people with queues snaking out of them.Herbal Biotech, Longevity Hospital, and Celestial Hospital were particularly full and extremely busy.“Thea, you’re a sham.”“How could you do something so horrible? Your appointments have far exceeded Christine's.”“You’ve even left Yadriel Willows, Dr. Michael, and Cameron Grimborn among other expert doctors in the dust.”Thea was just walking, but all the passers-by were pointing at her.Some of them insulted her.She was confused.Why was she a sham?She took her phone out, checking the Doctor App.Her eyes almost bugged out of her head.Apparently, she had gotten two hundred thousand appointments and treated more than thirty thousand patients. She was in the lead.What?Her eyes widened.Who was behind this?Was it James?Now she knew why James was so confident.It had not even been half a day yet, but she had treated more than thirty thousand

James smiled robotically. Stiffly, he stood up, just like a wooden puppet. Step by step, he left Century Hospital.He bought Thea her ranking, making her the laughing stock of Cansington and the medical conference.He did not care.He left Medical Street. After he left, he studied his surroundings to make sure that he was not being followed. Then, he called a cab to Common Clinic.At Common Clinic.Ronn was there.He was talking to May in the clinic.James walked in.Both of them stood up immediately and said simultaneously, “James.”James waved a hand and sat down before saying, “Have you found out who was trying to kill me this morning?”Ronn nodded. “I’ve got all the information.”“Tell me.”Ronn said, “These people arrived in Cansington eight days ago. They’re mercenaries from the border of the Southern Plains. They’re part of the Purgatory Army.”“Oh, the Purgatory Army?”James narrowed his eyes.Having been at the Southern Plains for 10 years, he was familiar with

It felt like the calm before the storm.James had a strong feeling that Cansington would be chaos in no time.All the different armies, political parties, and forces would be gathered there.“May.”“Yes, James?”James drummed his fingers on the table, deep in thought. “Is it possible for you to get in touch with any assassins from the Dark Castle?”May nodded. “I could get in touch with some of them.”James said, “Get in touch with them now. Say that you’re having trouble in Cansington and require backup.”James had to recruit some experts.Assassins from the Dark Castle were a solid choice.“Got it.”May obeyed.She typed out a short message on her phone.“Black Snake, I have failed my mission and blown my cover. I’ve killed the middleman. I’m hiding out in Cansington now, but I’m injured. Please help me escape.”After she crafted the message, she keyed in a number and sent it out.James watched as she sent the message, asking, “Who’s Black Snake?”May said, “An SSS-ra

After he finished speaking, he left.He called Ronn after leaving Common Clinic.Ronn showed up immediately.Inside a black multi-purpose vehicle.James was smoking.“Sir.”James wrote down a bunch of numbers on a piece of paper and passed it to Ronn. “This is a code from the Dark Castle. Find out what it means.”“Yes, sir.”“Also, keep a close eye on May. I want to know every single person she comes in contact with.”“Of course.” Ronn nodded and asked, “Is there anything else?”“That’s all. You may return.”James disembarked and called a cab home.At Common Clinic.May sat on a chair. As an assassin, she was keenly aware of her surroundings.She knew that Common Clinic was being watched, and there was very little she could do.She looked resigned.She knew that James did not trust her.There was nothing she could do about it since she was a former assassin.Now, the best thing she could do was persuade Black Snake.As long as Black Snake joined them, she would gain

“Why didn’t you discuss it with me?”James sat on the couch after he entered the house.Thea had a cold expression on her face. She scolded, “Is this why you were so confident? You claimed that I would definitely be among the top hundred. Buying my way into it was your solution?”“Hehe.”James just chuckled.Thea was furious, yet James was laughing. She almost tore her hair out.“Tell me honestly. How much money did you spend?”“Not much.” James did not know at all. Scarlett took care of it. Looking at Thea’s expression, he knew that she was really, really angry.He tried to explain, “Darling, all I wanted was to make you happy and allow you your moment in the spotlight. How would I know that people would figure it out so easily? They’re too smart nowadays, hehe…”“How much money did you spend?”It was all Thea cared about right now.Their family was on its last leg now. One could even say that they had no money left. To live required funds, but James was throwing it all awa

After Thea hung up, she looked at James. Her face looked like it was carved out of stone. “James, how dare you. Xara has just started working. You know it’s not easy to make money. How could you borrow three hundred thousand dollars from her?”“It’s just three hundred thousand…”James smiled but stopped and shut his mouth when he saw Thea’s icy look. He stood up and said, “I’ll make lunch.”He went into the kitchen.Thea looked resigned. She did not know if she wanted to laugh or cry.James went to the kitchen and put an apron on. He hummed as he began to prepare lunch.Just then, May sent him a text.“James, I’ve gotten in touch with Black Snake again. He told me he’d be here tonight and asked for my location. What should I tell him?”After he read the message, he considered it before replying, “Do you know the repair shop in the west? There’s a mountain called Mount Five Valley south of the shop about ten kilometers away. Just tell him that you’re there.”“Okay.”May replie
Chapter 526
James knew that Thea would get mad.“Darling, let me explain.”“What else is there to explain? Why don’t you buy a house if you’ve got millions? Do you want to live with my parents for the rest of your life? James, what else more do I have to say about you?”“I-I didn’t spend that much. Don’t listen to their nonsense. The truth is I sought out a hacker and hacked the Doctor App to modify the data secretly.”“Are you seriously still trying to lie to me? Do you take me for a fool?”“Okay, I’ll confess. I did spend some money. I spent a few million, but what is a few million? You’re priceless to me. No matter how much I spend on you, it makes me happy.”“Where did the money come from?” Thea asked aggressively.“My own,” James said while giggling.“Stop lying. Be serious.”James immediately went silent.“I’ll ask one more time. Where did the money come from? Did you do something illegal?” asked Thea.James was troubled by her question. His money really did not come from proper
