Fuming!

Duncan's luxury apartment.

The phone call was made.

A figure quickly approached.

Who else could it be but Alice?

The two immediately engaged in a friendly and cordial conversation.

When things get funny.

Adam suddenly changed the subject. "Did you trick Steven into taking my surgery?"

Alice immediately shook her head vigorously. "No."

"Really not?"

Adam sneered.

Alice stiffened, and said quietly, "So what if it is? If it weren't for this, would you even remember I exist? Think about it yourself, how long has it been since you last contacted me?"

"..."

Adam was speechless, unable to utter a word of frustration.

It's a ghost!

So that's the truth!

Even if Adam suspected that Alice was stirring things up behind the scenes, he only thought that Alice wanted to play both sides and gain more benefits.

I never expected this.

The truth is that Alice harbors a deep resentment in her boudoir, and because she is too proud to express it herself, she can only use such a roundabout method to express it subtly.

"Ha ha."

Seeing Adam's astonished expression, Alice couldn't help but burst out laughing.

You, Adam, haven't you forgotten about me? You haven't contacted me for over two months.

I'll send my super backup to cause you trouble.

If you can't do anything to him, you can't do anything to me either.

You're very angry, aren't you?

Don't hold it in!

Come at me!

She understood men's thoughts all too well.

In fact, even if Adam hadn't thought of this, she would have revealed some details later, allowing Adam to follow the clues and find the real mastermind.

There won't be a next time!

Adam was speechless and could only say seriously.

"Um."

Alice was unusually well-behaved at that moment.

This kind of thing inherently carries the risk of completely enraging Adam.

She would never have done this if she hadn't been so desperate to endure it.

All she wanted was for Adam to forget her.

Doing it once is enough.

Now she believes that Adam won't forget her for so long.

"You owe me a cutting-edge surgery."

Adam added.

"I'll pay for it!"

Alice's eyes were alluring.

The next day.

Early in the morning.

Medical Center.

Adam and Steven Murphy drove into the hospital parking lot one after the other.

After getting off the bus.

Good morning, Steven.

Adam smiled and nodded, taking the initiative to greet him.

Good morning, Adam.

Steven was taken aback, but nodded in response.

What puzzled him was not Adam's greeting.

His father's lecture last night made him realize that he had indeed done something wrong.

He also apologized to Adam.

He still admired Adam's demeanor.

There's nothing wrong with greeting each other like this.

What really puzzled him was Adam's genuine happiness, which seemed to show that he didn't care about him at all.

This gave him a strange feeling.

I went to the clinic.

"Alice not here yet?"

Steven asked the doctor in his group.

"I didn't see it."

"It seems she changed shifts."

His colleague's answer surprised him.

Why didn't Alice tell him?

Steven dialed Alice's number and asked her what was going on. When he heard the subtext that "her period came early," he suddenly realized what was happening and immediately switched into a caring and concerned mode.

When Alice said a few touching words, Steven immediately smiled like a child...

Changing room.

"Adam, what's making you so happy?"

George voiced what everyone was thinking.

"Nothing."

Adam was in high spirits and joked, "Cats eat fish, dogs eat meat, Ultraman fights monsters, do we need a reason to be happy?"

"Ultraman?"

George and the others exchanged bewildered glances. "What is that?"

"A superhero in Island Nation culture."

Adam quipped, "You should take a look; sometimes Island Nation culture is really useful."

After saying that, he turned and left the changing room, ignoring the bewildered crowd.

Green Clinic.

"Adam, how was dinner last night?"

Bianca asked with concern.

She had also heard about Adam being robbed of his surgery yesterday and had planned to go over to comfort him that evening.

Adam refused, citing a dinner meeting with the Murphy Family to discuss matters.

"Nailed it."

Adam laughed and said, "Murphy. and Mrs. Murphy are very reasonable. They made Steven apologize to me, and something like yesterday will not happen again."

"Steven Murphy apologized to you?"

Bald Chris was astonished.

Shouldn't it?

Bianca immediately glared at Bald Chris: "Adam should have done yesterday's Stillness Surgery."

"Yes, yes, I'm on Adam's side."

Bald Chris raised his hand and said, "I'm just wondering why Steven Murphy, the heir to Murphy Pharmaceuticals, would bow down and apologize. If it were me, I definitely wouldn't."

"If it were you, of course he wouldn't need to apologize."

Bianca said disdainfully, "Murphy Pharmaceuticals is indeed impressive, but don't forget that Adam is also the youngest billionaire. Peter Murphy is no match for Adam at Adam age."

"Hey!"

Bald Chris slapped his forehead. "Right! I almost forgot that Adam is not only the best intern, but also the youngest billionaire."

"Alright, we're all colleagues, all here to study medicine. There's no conflict that can't be resolved. Let's get along peacefully from now on."

Adam ended the conversation.

Anyway, the news that Steven apologized to him had already spread, so he had saved face and substance.

What else do you want to do?

That's right!

He was the one who deliberately kept watch.

As a profession that values authority and expertise, doctors must maintain a respectable image.

If someone steals your surgery in public in this way and you don't react at all, what will others think of you?

The way your colleagues at the hospital treat you can affect how your patients treat you.

If you were a patient, how much trust could you have in a doctor who was being pointed at and criticized by other doctors and nurses?

As it turned out, Adam was right.

The news spread like wildfire throughout the hospital. After being processed by Bianca and a group of female doctors and nurses who idolized Adam's reputation was not only not damaged, but actually became even more impressive.

You disagree?

Why don't you go talk to Peter Murphy, the legendary tycoon of Murphy Pharmaceuticals, and get his son to apologize?

You can't even get a meeting with Peter Murphy!

BB my ass!

Emergency room.

"What's going on?"

Adam stared in surprise at the two men, one big and one small, dressed in paintball camouflage outfits and carrying paintball guns, as the younger one helped the older one into the room.

"Doctor, my chest feels tight and hurts a lot, ah!!!"

The older man clutched his chest, struggling to breathe as he spoke, and finally, he let out a bloodcurdling scream.

Adam quickly helped him lie down on his side and put the stethoscope into his chest.

"Give him oxygen! Arrange for an X-ray and CT scan immediately."

Adam gave the order.

The nurse stepped forward and put an oxygen mask on the young man.

Waaaaah! It's all my fault!

The little boy cried out, "Cousin, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have won 58 games in a row against you."

"Ah!!!"

The young man's screams grew louder.

Adam's lips twitched.

That's right!

It should be spontaneous pneumothorax!

"Little boy, stop talking."

Adam couldn't help but say to his young cousin, who was probably just a primary school student, "The more you talk, the more your cousin hurts."

"Why?"

My little cousin had tears in his eyes.

"Because your cousin got really angry."

Adam was both amused and exasperated.

A college student got crushed 58 times in a row by his elementary school cousin while playing video games. The feeling must be...

"I'm sorry, cousin, I didn't know you were so bad. I'll definitely let you win next time."

My little cousin was wiping away tears.

"Ah!!!"

The young man let out another scream.

Adam: "..."
