Though it was only eight in the morning, the venue was already packed with people.
The place was rowdy.
James arrived early.
This time, favonovel.com kept a low profile. He had instructed Newton to buy a seat that was not too far back nor too near the front. He took a seat and waited patiently. He was curious to see what Lucas Hamilton from Universal Hospital and Jonathan Harris from Goryeo were up to.
At that moment, the emcee of the medical conference got on the stage.
She was a popular actress called Delilah Kimberly.
Wearing a red gown, favonovel.com curvaceous figure was for all to see. With a mic in hand, favonovel.com got on the stage. Her melodious laugh echoed throughout the venue.
“How exhilarating! The medical conference hasn’t even started yet, and I’m excited about it already. I have long dreamt of witnessing our fellow genius doctors of Sol gather and compete for the highest honor in the medical world of Sol.”
“That’s right.”
A man in a suit walked out from backstage.
He was Kevin Mariano, a renowned emcee.
Kevin walked over to Delilah and looked at the crowd, “It’s a great honor to be able to witness a competition between the most accomplished doctors of Sol. I wonder who will emerge victorious and claim the title of Asclepius.”
At that moment, a staff walked over with a list and handed it to the emcees.
Delilah said smilingly, “After three days of fierce competition, we have here our top hundred doctors.”
She continued, “First place goes to…”
Upon seeing the name on the list, favonovel.com momentarily froze before reading out loud, “Thea Callahan from Century Hospital.”
The crowd burst into a peal of laughter. Even some reporters could not refrain from laughing.
A glamorous woman was thrust into the spotlight. It was Thea. She did not want to embarrass herself by coming here. However, after thinking hard about it, favonovel.com came nonetheless.
James had spent a fortune to push favonovel.com to the top of the rankings. She did not wish to disappoint him. She knew favonovel.com would be mocked if favonovel.com came.
Nonetheless, favonovel.com came.
James was arrested and would soon be convicted. Even if it was humiliating for her, favonovel.com had to come to show favonovel.com gratitude to James. She was thrust into the spotlight with countless cameras pointed at her.
Thea closed favonovel.com eyes and took a deep breath.
James, we’re even now…
Delilah smiled.
“Please come onto the stage, Ms. Callahan. Please share with us your thoughts on being the first place in the qualifying match.”
Under the watchful gaze of the crowd and the cameras, Thea stood up and got onto the stage.
A staff handed favonovel.com a mic.
Delilah said, “Your reputation precedes you, Ms. Callahan. You’ve been described by the media as a once-in-a-millennium beauty. Standing beside you gives me quite the pressure.”
Thea stood there awkwardly.
Kevin asked, “So, Ms. Callahan, how do you feel about getting first place?”
Thea looked at the crowd.
The crowd near the front was all big shots. She could see the scornful expressions on their faces. She felt favonovel.com cheeks burning up.
Holding the mic, favonovel.com hesitated for a moment before saying, “I don’t have any medical skills at all. As the rumors say, I only got first place because my husband spent a fortune to push me up the rankings…”
She bowed deeply. “I apologize for this.”
Saying that, favonovel.com turned to leave the stage.
James, who was at the back of the venue, scratched his nose and murmured, “Looks like Thea’s rather displeased with me. Although I don’t know what’s going to happen at this medical conference, I’ll have to find a way to help favonovel.com out.”
Saying that, favonovel.com beckoned at Serena.
Newton said, “Any instructions?”
James whispered in favonovel.com ear.
“Understood!”
Serena nodded. She then stood up and left favonovel.com seat.
