With a cry of horror, Donald fell from three stories.

“Dad!”

The young man, who had come after hearing the news, glared at Clarence like he was insane, his eyes almost popping out of their sockets. “If my father dies, I’ll bury your entire family with him!”

With that said, he rushed downstairs with his men.

Donald was lucky enough to have fallen into the tree lawn downstairs. He had suffered only a slight scratch.

“Dad!”

Felix Wright helped his father back onto his feet.

Donald looked awful.

He was covered in bruises and both of his arms were broken. He was scared out of his wits that he was now incontinent.

Clarence stood near the third-floor window, a little disappointed to see that Donald was all right.

“Master Howard... Why did you get so angry all of a sudden?

“There are so many people watching. Fortunately, nobody died!

“If someone had, you’d be in big trouble!” Jackson leaned over, looking puzzled.

Clarence said coldly, “It’s because he deserves to die!”

“Deserves to die?” Jackson frowned.

Clarence explained to Jackson what had happened eight years ago. Jackson’s face darkened upon hearing it.

Clarence continued saying, “Mr. Hayes, why do you think your daughter jumped off a building?”

“You mean...”

Jackson’s heart sank.

A fierce, murderous look flashed across his face. If Donald had touched his daughter, Jackson would never let him off the hook, even if he was a member of the Wright family.

Just then, Jackson’s phone rang.

It was a phone call from Helena. She complained tearfully, “Dear, Ginny told me everything.

“It’s that b*stard from school!

“He asked Ginny to go to the office during her morning self-study so he could harass her!

“Ginny rathered die than submit to him, so she jumped off the building!”

Jackson’s face was grim.

If he had known about this, he would have had his men kill Donald instead of watching Clarence hit him.

By the time Clarence and Jackson got downstairs, Felix had already taken Donald to the hospital.

“Master Howard, I still have some business to attend to at the office, so I have to leave first. If the Wright family gives you any trouble, feel free to contact me.” Jackson promised to protect Clarence as he prepared to leave.

Clarence shook his head gently. “Don’t worry, Mr. Hayes. I’ll be fine.”

“Keep in touch.”

Jackson nodded and led his men away without saying much.

Clarence walked out of the school, but he had to take a taxi back because he had gone there in Jeremy’s car and had not driven himself.

Clarence took the taxi back to Thirteen Hall.

He happened to notice an old man and a woman, who was in her thirties, standing under the Thirteen Hall plaque.

The old man, who looked over sixty, could not help praising, “Thirteen Hall! The calligraphy’s amazing. Every stroke is imposing!”

“Dad, this Thirteen Hall has just opened. Why don’t we go to Humanity Hall across from here?”

The woman next to the man frowned. Her name was Leanne Wright, and the old man was her father, Thompson Wright.

Clarence walked over with a smile. “Are you two here to see a doctor?”

“Who are you?” Leanne frowned.

Clarence laughed, “I’m the owner of Thirteen Hall.”

“You? So young? Do you know anything about medicine?” Leanne was surprised.

Clarence was about to explain, but Belle and Melody immediately crossed the road and rushed over. “You’d better go to Humanity Hall across from here if you want to see a doctor!

“By the way, I forgot to mention that the owner of Thirteen Hall is the son-in-law of the Murphy family.

“Humanity Hall belongs to the Murphy family!

“In other words, you can consider Thirteen Hall a branch of Humanity Hall.” Melody looked at Clarence playfully.

Belle added, “Clarence has no medical license or any medical certificates. Are you sure you want to see him?”

“What? Opening a clinic without a medical license? Is this some kind of joke?” Leanne glared at Clarence.

“Dad, let’s go to Humanity Hall across from here. I heard Humanity Hall’s Master Williams is an amazing doctor. Maybe he can cure you!”

“Alright.”

Thompson nodded, and Belle led him to the Humanity Hall across from here.

Melody stayed standing there, looking at Clarence with amusement. “Clarence, so what if you’ve opened Thirteen Hall?

“Do you think you can run a clinic just because Jackson gave you one?

“The daily cost of a clinic would scare you to death.

“Without any patients, you’ll be closed down within a week at most!

“I’ll wait and see how you’ll beg the Murphy family when that happens!

“You ungrateful thing!”

With that said, Melody returned to Humanity Hall, proud as a peacock.

Clarence said nothing and turned back to Thirteen Hall.

Cecilia was standing at the door. “Since you and Jeremy left, there had been seven or eight patients about to enter Thirteen Hall, but they were unfortunately taken away by your good sisters.”

“Let them take the patients.”

Clarence shook his head, seemingly unconcerned.

He was running a clinic in hopes of treating patients with complicated diseases.

People with minor colds could go to ordinary clinics. He disdained having to treat them.

“Are you that unworried?” Cecilia was a little surprised.

Clarence laughed and said, “What else can I do? Go over and steal patients back from them?”

“It wouldn’t be impossible.” Cecilia’s eyes lit up.

Clarence shrugged. “Forget it! I have no idea how they’ll criticize me if I try to steal their patients. Just let them do what they want.”

Cecilia looked at Clarence worriedly. “Clarence, you can’t keep Thirteen Hall in business if you have no patients.”

“With such a big place, the maintenance of the storefront, water and electricity bills would cost at least twenty dollars a month. Are you sure you would be able to keep the clinic going?

“I heard the Murphy family only gives you three thousand dollars a month.

“Why don’t you accept me, and I’ll invest in Thirteen Hall?” Cecilia said half-jokingly.

“Cecilia, you must have a fortune of ten billion, right? How could you be interested in Thirteen Hall?” Clarence laughed bitterly.

Cecilia flirtatiously walked over and reached out to raise Clarence’s chin up. “Of course I’m not interested in Thirteen Hall.

“I’m interested in the owner of Thirteen Hall!

“Just accept me!”

“Uh, Cecilia, I’m a serious man...” Clarence touched his nose.

Cecilia put her arms around Clarence’s neck. “You’re a serious man, but I don’t know if you’ll still be serious later on.”

The faint scent of perfume wafted over his face. Cecilia was practically leaning on Clarence.

Clarence was experiencing a surge in male hormones.

Suddenly, Master Williams hurriedly dashed into Thirteen Hall with a pale face. “Master Howard, something bad has happened.”

“What is it?”

Clarence pushed Cecilia away and looked at Master Williams in confusion.

Master Williams looked embarrassed. “Belle... Belle had just brought a patient back, so I tried to treat him, but it’s only been three minutes, and his family member is... reacting violently...”

“The family member’s reacting violently? What about the patient?” Clarence was confused.

“He’s stopped breathing...”

Clarence was practically speechless. The patient was no longer breathing. Would the family member not react violently under such circumstances?

“Come on. Let’s go check it out.”

Clarence rushed out of Thirteen Hall and headed toward Humanity Hall.

Cecilia stomped her feet in anger. “His patients have spoiled my fun again!”
