Over the course of these three years in prison, Charles apprenticed himself to Master Hall and learned ancient medical techniques.
Until the day of his release, he had no idea about the true identity of Master Hall
He only knew that his medical skills were unparalleled, making him an unprecedented divine physician.
Those self-proclaimed top-tier medical experts were, in his eyes, unworthy of even being qualified to shine Master Hall's shoes!
The silver needle he just pierced into Tom's neck was a technique he learned from Master Hall.
Even if it was just the most basic acupuncture method, it could render that damn bastard impotent for life!
It would be a lie to say that his heart didn't ache.
Until the second before he decided to leave, he still loved Sarah deeply.
Before he was imprisoned, he was even willing to give up his life for her.
It was ridiculous that in the end, he realized that he was nothing…
"Mom, Wendy, how are you doing now?"
Charles shook his head and tried his best not to think about Sarah.
During his imprisonment, only his mother and sister visited him.
To marry Sarah, he forced his mother and sister to sell the only house of their family.
Using the money from the sale as a dowry, which was a moment of glory.
But since then, it had caused his mother and sister to have to live in a dark and damp slum.
They had met a few times since then. He had seen his mother and sister selling odds and ends on the cold street.
But because he was with his wife's family, he could only pretend not to see them.
Now looking back, he felt like he was a piece of shit!!!
"I now have possessed the medical techniques taught by Master Hall, as well as a letter of recommendation from him. There will definitely be more opportunities in the future,"
Charles thought that he would return to the medical field sooner or later and clear his name from the academic paper fraud that happened years ago.
As for what he had to do now, it was to pick up his sister from school.
He had never gone to school to pick up his sister since childhood.
Even when his sister asked him to attend parent-teacher conferences, he chose to refuse directly.
"I'm not sure if I can still obtain Wendy's forgiveness..."
He arrived at the entrance of Starbain No. 3 Middle School.
Carrying Wendy's favorite fried chicken, Charles waited nervously.
He was glad that Wendy didn't give up on herself due to their poor family background.
On the contrary, she worked hard and got into this prestigious high school.
After waiting for an hour, almost all the students had left.
Charles still didn't see Wendy come out, so he went to the security room.
Coincidentally, a delicate female student who was about to leave heard the name of Wendy Johnson.
She knocked on the door and asked softly, "May I ask, what's your relationship with Wendy?"
"I'm her older brother," Charles replied subconsciously.
"Is that so? She dropped out of school two months ago. I hope you can persuade her not to give up her studies when you go back."
The delicate girl was Wendy's classmate and looked a little anxious.
However, Charles was stunned when he heard that.
Dropped out of school? Why did she drop out of school?
His sister had always been hardworking and was very passionate about learning.
Therefore, he could believe that anyone would drop out of school, except Wendy!
"This is my phone number. If Wendy has any difficulties, you can call me at any time. I'm happy to help her!"
Before the delicate girl could pass the note over, Charles quickly rushed back home without hesitation.
He still remembered the route. He took several bus transfers to get home with the few coins he had left and finally arrived home.
After circling a few intersections, he smelled a familiar sour odor.
In front of the intersection was a sewer specifically for dumping leftovers.
Due to the lack of cleaning, the smell was very strong.
The alley looked messy, and the walls were covered with various graffiti.
Arriving at the third iron gate, he was about to knock.
He heard a scream from inside the house!
Charles's expression suddenly changed.
Without thinking, he jumped over the iron fence and rushed into the house.
There were several tall and sturdy men who surrounded the house that was less than 100 square feet, blocking any way out.
In the middle of these men were a weak mother and daughter.
The two of them clung to each other nervously.
This scene made Charles's eyes turn red, and he rushed forward to comfort them, "Mom, Wendy, it's me, I'm back, don't be afraid!"
"Charles!" Wendy almost cried.
She had always been very strong, and her clear eyes were filled with determination.
It wasn't until the moment she saw Charles that the tense nerve finally relaxed
"Charles, my son, you've finally returned…"
His mother, Tess Brown, looked very weathered and had aged a lot compared to before.
At this moment, she was kneeling on the ground, desperately protecting her daughter from harm.
"Mom, it's me. I'm Charles!"
Charles looked at his mother and sister's looks and felt deeply emotional inside.
At this moment, a bald middle-aged man raised an eyebrow and cursed, "Who the hell are you? Don't fucking hinder us from collecting the debt!"
"You all deserve to die!" Charles' voice was deep and seemed like a low roar.
For all these years, he had failed to fulfill his filial duty to his mother.
Now that he had awakened, he witnessed his mother being bullied.
How could he bear it?
His eyes were filled with killing intent.
The bald man instinctively furrowed his brow, feeling startled by the intense gaze of this young lad.
He spat and cursed, "Well, do you want to avoid paying your debts? Your mother owes us 500,000 dollars. If she doesn't pay, then it will be you, who should die!"
"500,000 dollars?!"
Charles was shocked!
That was a huge sum for him.
Even if he were still working as a nurse's aide, it would take him 20 years without eating or drinking to repay it all!
"But I only borrowed 100,000 dollars, and I've already paid back tens of thousands over the past six months. Why did it suddenly become so much?"
Tess borrowed the money because she believed the words of her in-laws.
She thought Charles had been mistreated in prison and needed money to bribe someone in there.
But how could she understand this? She trusted it to be true.
All the 100,000 dollars she borrowed was handed over to Sarah's mother, hoping her son would be safe in prison.
Charles, after learning the truth, felt his eyes were filled with anger.
He thought Sarah had been outrageous enough to cheat on him.
But he never expected her mother to do such a despicable thing!
The three years of imprisonment taught him what it meant to let go.
At the same time, it taught him to handle any situation calmly.
So, he reminded the bald man with an expressionless face, "Give me three days, and I'll return both the principal and the interest to your boss."
"Hahaha!" The bald man laughed instead of getting angry." Why the f*ck should I believe you? Just because you're a gigolo? Sell your ass to make money?"
As soon as he said this, the surrounding burly men all burst into laughter.
However, Charles shook his head. "Whether you believe it or not, it's not up to you to decide!"
"Damn it, you're asking for death!"
Suddenly, the bald man flew into a rage and was about to attack Charles directly.
This scene frightened Tess and Wendy.
But Charles remained calm, his expression unchanged, and his eyes gleaming with coldness.
He then took out a silver needle from his jacket pocket.
"Whoosh!"
Before the bald man could react,
The silver needle shot out, quickly piercing into the left side of his forehead, two inches deep.
Then, a loud "bang" was heard!
In front of everyone, the bald man collapsed to the ground...
