    “That’s it?” Sean smiled. “Do you know how many doctors I’ve called already? None of them can guarantee he can live past next June.”


    “Indeed, ording to my estimation, your father will live for at most three or four months. To be honest, death may only mean relief to him,” Chen Zhao replied. “Nevertheless, I still think that I can dy his death.”


    Chen Zhao did not know Sean’s purpose. However, as an illegal doctor, he had to follow one rule: never ask the client’s motives.


    The less he knew, the safer he would be.


    Sean’s family was surely not an ordinary one. Chen Zhao felt that his entire family might be in the mafia.


    “But it’ll cost more than just thirty thousand dors. I need toe here once every week,” Chen Zhao said, looking at Sean.


    “Once every week, thirty thousand each time. A reasonable price it is,” Sean nodded. “However, should my father die within a year, his death will also mark yours.”


    It was a blunt death threat!


    Chen Zhao nced at Old Sean and promised, “As long as it’s not an idental death, I can guarantee that he lives.”


    “Of course.”


    With great risk alsoes great reward.


    Chen Zhao indeed had to undertake an enormous risk, but if he managed toplete the task, he would receive at least 1.5 million dors after a year.


    After deducting Ethan’s 20%mission, he would still get 1.2 million.


    “Mr. Sean, let me begin your father’s first treatment.”


    “Do I need to leave?”


    “No.”


    “Then let’s start.”


    Chen Zhao helped Old Sean to dredge his meridians in order to improve his blood cirction.


    In fact, even without demonic crystals, Chen Zhao was still confident that he could dy Old Sean’s death.


    Chen Zhao spent two entire hours for the acupuncture.


    When he collected the needles back after two hours, Old Sean’s face was clearly more ruddy.


    Sean looked at Chen Zhao. He was now certain that Chen Zhao had not just been exaggerating.


    He took out the thirty thousand dors cash which he had prepared earlier. Taking the cash, Chen Zhao said, “Thank you. I should leave now. Mr. Sean, if you have any medical needs in the future, you can call me anytime.”


    “Bye. Donep, send Mr. Chen back to the city.”


    ...


    Chen Zhao pped six thousand dors onto Ethan’s table. Filled with excitement, Ethan almost leaped onto Chen Zhao and kissed his cheek, but Chen Zhao rejected him forcefully.


    “Chen, I knew you could do it! You’re amazing!”


    Six thousand was indeed a huge sum for Ethan.


    “Since you’re so happy, how about treat me to a lunch out to thank me?”


    “Li made many burgers. Let’s eat here. The kids like my burgers too.”


    “Stingy.”


    “You just earned over twenty thousand. Why not you treat me?”


    “Don’t even think about it.”


    “You’re Chinese. You should be more generous...”


    “This has nothing to do with nationality. I earned my money through hard work.”


    “Finding clients for you is hard work as well.”


    Just then, Ethan’s phone rang. After he answered the call, he said to Chen Zhao, “Look, another client, but not so much money this time. Only five hundred. Do you want it?”


    “What kind of client is it?”


    “UCLA. I only know it’s a group of students. They probably got themselves into some kind of trouble.”


    University of California is a public university system whichprises ten campuses. Its main campus used to be in Oand, but now there is no longer a main campus and all of them have the same level. UCLA, or University of California, Los Angeles, is one of them.


    “Oh yeah, Vincent is no longer driving, right? I heard that he’s nning to be an actor. Did you help him?”


    “What’s strange about it? Who in Los Angeles doesn’t dream of bing a star? Do you dare to say that you’ve never thought about it?”


    Every Angeleno is an actor. Indeed, Hollywood’s development has influenced every corner of Los Angeles. Most people in Los Angeles have a job that is in one way or another rted to Hollywood.


    Who would not want to appear on a screen in pure mour and beauty? Even older people might have the same dream.


    “It’s a difficult path.”


    “At least he has the path before him,” Chen Zhao said.


    Vincent had obtained this opportunity because of the rtionship between Chen Zhao and Steven, but the opportunity would not be longsting. If he could manage to have a fantastic performance in his next two or three ys, perhaps an agency would find him and offer him more opportunities in the future.


    On the other hand, if his performance was only mediocre, he would return to his ordinary life.


    Of course, the key was whether the movie itself had a huge box office taking. If it was a very popr film, the characters inside would also look showy.


    Another possibility was if he was extremely lucky and a film just wanted a new actor as the lead. However, the odds were exceptionally low. There were indeed actors in Hollywood who became famous overnight, but no more than one or two every year.


    Moreover, Vincent’s circumstances were rather special.


    Chen Zhao really hoped that Vincent would seed. To this end, he was willing to help him whenever he could.


    ...


    Eveleigh Model had been constantly persuading her roommate Diana Bilis. At the moment, Diana’s face was as pale as a sheet.


    Both of them were medical students, so they roughly knew how severe the situation was.


    “Diana, let me send you to the hospital. You can’t dy anymore. Your situation is very dangerous.”


    “No way,” Diana answered stubbornly, gritting her teeth. Even though she was already very weak, she was still unwilling to go to the hospital.


    “Damn! If you insist on doing this, you’ll really die!”


    “I’ve already called a doctor,” Diana said with a weak voice.


    “Are you an idiot? You’ve already been harmed by an illegal doctor, and now you’re calling another one here!” Eveleigh roared in anger. “We both read medicine. You should know the risks of finding an illegal doctor. They mostly have had no proper medical training. Some can’t even distinguish the various kinds of scalpels. Do you know...”


    “I know. If someone finds out about my illegal abortion, all of my secrets will be exposed. I may even be prosecuted,” Diana said. “So you’ll help me to keep my secrets, right?”


    Eveleigh seemed somewhat hesitant. “As long as you’repletely safe, I’ll keep your secrets. However, if you life is at stake, I’ll call an ambnce immediately. When will the doctor arrive?”
