Chapter 9 A Promise

When Ellen saw Hillary's deranged look, she was flabbergasted!

"Put on your pants first!"

But Hillary ignored everything and grabbed Ellen's arm with her hand stained with blood. "Hurry up! Tell me, where did this beauty prescription come from?"

Ellen looked at the blood-stained piece of paper and said with a blank look on her face, "Oh, it's written by an idiot randomly. What's wrong?"

"What's wrong? You're telling me that it was written groundlessly?! This is an absolutely divine prescription! You know that I have been researching beauty-enhancing medication recently. When I saw this piece of paper just now, I was immediately enlightened! Take me to see that idiot, hurry up! Right now! Right now! Right now!" Hillary shouted at Ellen excitedly.

Ellen was astonished by Hillary's behaviour.

She witnessed Denzel writing the messy prescription with her own eyes. She thought he wrote it randomly, so she didn't expect that the prescription could make Hillary, who had a doctorate in medicine, so excited!

"Could it be that this prescription was not some random scribbling?"

Ellen's heart skipped a beat. "Does that idiot really have some talent in medicine?"

Thinking of this, she glared at Hillary. "Please clean up and put on your pants. You don't want to see that idiot looking like this."

Hillary quickly rushed into the bathroom and then emerged in five minutes.

Ellen went straight to the Helping Hands Medical Center, bringing Hillary along.

"No! Let's go to my company first! I'll formulate a prototype with this prescription right away!" Hillary suddenly roared in the car.

Ellen's car turned rapidly, thinking of the people she met today.

Denzel, who was an idiot.

Amelia, an aloof and domineering lady.

And now Hillary, her good friend who was speaking incoherently like she was going crazy.

One by one, they seemed to have become abnormal.

Perhaps a great change was about to happen to the world!

When the two of them arrived at Hillary's company, Hillary immediately entered the laboratory and left Ellen outside.

She fiddled inside for an hour before coming out with a bottle of strange-colored ointment in her hand.

This bottle of ointment was dark green in colour, and it was baffling at first glance.

"Did you succeed at making it?" Ellen was unsure.

Hillary said awkwardly, "No, I failed.”

"F*ck! I knew that idiot was just playing tricks on me!" Ellen cursed him.

However, Hillary's little face turned red. "Well, it's because the paper was stained with blood, and the ratio on the last two lines can't be seen clearly..."

Ellen was dumbstruck.

"Quickly, call that idiot on the phone. Could you ask him to come over? The equipment and herbs are all available here," Hillary said embarrassedly.

“I’ll ask some experts of our company to come and discuss it right away."

Ellen's face was full of disbelief. "Do you really think this ointment has miraculous effects?

"Of course! Don't you think I would know better? Let me tell you, if this prescription is successful, it will take the beauty and pharmaceutical industry by storm!" Hillary rolled her eyes at Ellen, and then her delighted face looked like it was covered with glittering stars. "This b*stard is a genius. He can even come up with such a miraculous prescription, so I would like to kneel down and worship him."

Ellen felt goosebumps all over her body when she heard how firm and decisive Hillary's words were, as if she was very experienced at this. So, she quickly called Denzel.

At this moment, Denzel was looking at Amelia, who had just woken up. They looked

at each other and didn't say a word.

Amelia had woken up five minutes ago.

She had a dream that seemed to have lasted for a thousand years.

When she woke up, she noticed the warmth in her palm, which was like the tenderness she had received at the brink of death, the previous night.

Her face turned red and she gently moved her body away from Denzel.

Denzel looked at her, but said nothing.

She also looked at Denzel with burning eyes, and her heart was full of sorrow.

"Why did I say those shameful words just now..."

It seemed that it was because of his gaze...

"Amelia, you are really shameless!" She thought to herself.

10 years of waiting and 10 years of disappointment. However, just a gaze had broken through her guards.

A broken mirror would be difficult to mend. How could they move on from this?

After looking at each other in silence for five minutes, Denzel sighed and said, "Let's have a good talk."

Amelia was stunned, but she did agree to have a good talk.

Yes, they had known each other for ten years and were married for three years.

In the past three years, the two of them had never had a heart-to-heart talk.

It was time to have a talk, whether they were to break up or to continue with their

relationship.

At the thought of this, Amelia's eyes suddenly turned red.

"Denzel, I've been living a hard life these years, do you know?"

Denzel nodded. "l know."

"You can ignore the opinions of others, but I am a woman. I am not as indifferent as you. I need a man to stand behind me and support me all the time..."

"Since I got married to you, I've always been living with other people's malicious eyes on me. Whether at home or at the company, I always hear others' ridicule. 11m really tired..."

"l admit that I like you, but I don't want to like you. I like you so much that it has made me become so humiliated."

"Do you Know whose name I was calling when I almost died last night? Do you know who I was calling out to? Do you know who appeared?"

"Where were you when I needed you the most? 10 years of protection is not as good as Alfred appearing in time!"

"So, I love you! But I hate you too!"

"It's because of you that I owe that man a big favour!"

Upon hearing this, Denzel felt bitter in his heart.

He had a strong impulse to tell Amelia that it was him, Denzel, who appeared and saved her the previous night!

"I've never stopped protecting you!"

However, Denzel couldn't!

He now had a revenge plan, and all his medical skills were still unknown to the public.

He didn't want to get Amelia into trouble!

"Amelia, I have never known that you had so much grievance in your heart..."

"In the past three years, I thought that if I had ignored the rumors around me, I would be calm."

"But I forgot about your feelings."

"What's more, because of my indifference, I indirectly transferred the burden of those

rumors to you.”

"It was my fault." Denzel thought these in his heart, but he could not say it to her.

"Give me a year," he suddenly said, taking in a deep breath.

Amelia looked up in shock and met Denzel's firm gaze.

"One year, I'll prove it to you!"

"You and I are a match made in heaven!"

Denzel said in a deep voice and held Amelia's hand tightly.

Amelia felt warmth in her heart. She wanted to pull her hand away, but found that she had no strength.

"Are you and I... a match made in heaven..."

"In three months, I'll make you the master of the Mo family!"

"In six months, I'll let you take charge of the pharmaceutical industry!"

"Within a year, I'll let you climb to the peak of Jiang City!"

Every word was so deafening!

It stunned her.

Looking at the gentle and overbearing man in front of her, Amelia's heart stirred.

"Could he say that? Wasn't he her useless husband?"

How arrogant and proud he was, as if he was the one who ruled Jiang City!

"You... on what grounds..." Amelia couldn't help asking.

"On what grounds?" Denzel suddenly stood up and looked at the starry sky outside.

All of a sudden, he was full of heroic spirit!

"Because I'm the King of my own destiny!"

"Because you're the chosen one!"

"Because I love you!"

"l am invincible!"
