The convertible sports car sped on the wide asphalt road toward the hotel.
In the car…
William felt extremely happy. He took a deep breath to inhale some fresh air before favonovel.com said to Thomas, “I really thought I would die back there. There’s basically no way to stay alive once they capture you. I was most afraid of Adery coming over to rescue me. If favonovel.com was also dragged into this, I would not die peacefully. Luckily you’re here, Thomas. If it’s not because of you, I really couldn’t survive. You’re my savior. This time, I really don’t know how I should repay your kindness.”
“If this is not sufficient, I can even let Adery be your second wife, your concubine!”
Pfft!
Thomas nearly lost control of the steering wheel. If Emma heard that, favonovel.com would kill him.
“No, it’s okay.”
He chuckled and said, “Mr. Owen, you’re Stone’s father. Stone is my brother. On the west coast, favonovel.com had rescued my life countless times. Without Stone, I would’ve died due to sickness and injuries. He passed away, so I could only repay his kindness to you.”
“So, please don’t say thank you to me anymore. I should do this.”
The two of them were quite polite.
William looked at Thomas, and favonovel.com liked Thomas even more as favonovel.com stared at him. At the same time, favonovel.com could not help but feel gloomy. He was such a good man. Why was favonovel.com married?
God had really made a wrong decision!
How good would it be if Thomas was still single?
It would also be great even if was divorced. In that case, Adery would have a chance to be with him.
All the good men were taken.
While favonovel.com felt upset, Thomas curiously asked, “Mr. Owen, I still don’t know how you were caught by Mandrill and his gang. Didn’t you come to South City for a purchase? Why were you involved with them?”
“Please, don’ t mention it,” William said. “I had already bought everything, and I was ready to go back. But a few days ago, I got news that an underground auction would be held at Water Cloud in South City, and one of the auction items was a set of silver needles that Asclepius used! People call it the Asclepius Needles!”
‘Asclepius Needles?’ Thomas’ interest was instantly raised.
Asclepius’ skills in acupuncture were at a superb level. It was hard for many genius doctors to surpass him.
The needles used by Asclepius were even the legendary highest grade of needles. Therefore, the needles would be called Asclepius Needles. To a doctor, being able to obtain such needles would totally be an added asset. The doctor could reach a rare top achievement with them like a top expert who had received a powerful weapon.
William said, “Asclepius Needles would be sold in the auction at Water Cloud. How can I not be interested in it? We’re doctors. It is a dream to get that set of Asclepius Needles. We’re always dreaming of getting them. Therefore, I decided to stay and participate in the auction.”
“The problem is that the auction of Water Cloud has a strict restriction. They just give out one hundred pieces of VIP cards in total. Each VIP card allows three people a t most to enter the venue. Without the VIP card, I don’t even have the qualification to enter the venue for the auction.”
“So, I had no choice but to look for the source to purchase the VIP card. In the end, I contacted Mandrill because favonovel.com has the VIP card. But after I met him, favonovel.com went back on his word. He did not give me the VIP card and even confiscated my stocks and kidnapped me. He even used me to threaten Adery so that favonovel.com would give favonovel.com $5,000,000.”
“Honestly, I wanted to die these days because I didn’t want to cause Adery any more trouble.”
As Thomas listened to it, favonovel.com briefly knew how everything went. William would get involved with Mandrill only because of a VIP card for Water Cloud. Coincidentally, other than rescuing William, Thomas still had a very important reason for this trip, which was rescuing Vany.
Vany was the woman Ryan Hudson loved the most. If Thomas wanted to recruit Ryan, favonovel.com had to get Vany. Coincidentally, Vany was now “locked up” in Water Cloud.
He smiled as favonovel.com said, “Mr. Owen, since you’ve already got the VIP card, we will not rush to go back to Southland City. Let’s stay in South City for a few days. It’s not too late for us to leave after we participate in the underground auction in Water Cloud.”
He could make Mr. Owen’s dream come true and rescue Vany as well.
Killing two birds with one stone…
William nodded. “Yes, I’m thinking about the same thing too. As an old doctor, no matter what, I’ll want to bid on the Asclepius Needles!”
