Chapter 213
Upon hearing this, Reene hurriedly said, "Alice, my injuries have almost healed. Don''t put your
career on hold for my sake!"
Kingsley''s attitude did a one-eighty as well. "That''s right, Alice. Reene will be discharged in a couple
of days with Cecilia apanying her. It''ll be too bad if you miss this opportunity! How about this?
I''ll tell Jeffred that I''m gonna attend the forum with you!" It was true that he didn''t want to get
pestered by those old pedants, but he was willing to overlook these details for the sake of Alice''s
future. Above all else, Alice had just mentioned that the medical forum would be held at a holiday
resort for three days this time! This meant he would finally have the opportunity to be alone with her
for their rtionship to grow! It''s probably not too much for me to ask for a deluxe king room at the
holiday resort in the name of Dr. Nicholson, I guess…
At the thought of this, Kingsley said with a chuckle, "It''s settled then, Alice!" Then, he nced at his
watch and mumbled, "They probably have heard of it by this hour…"
Both Reene and Alice looked puzzled. "Kingsley, what are you talking about? Heard of what?"
Instead of answering them, Kingsley asked, "Reene, can you move about now?"
"Of course I can." Reene nodded. "I even took a stroll in the hospital''s little garden with Cecilia for
half an hour yesterday."
Kingsley''s lips curled into a smile. "Come on, Reene. Let me drive you somewhere to show you
something interesting."

Alice immediately said, "Don''t get up to any mischief, Kingsley. Reene''s injuries have just healed.
She''s yet to be able to exercise vigorously or move about for a long time."
"Don''t worry, Alice. It''s just about ten minutes from here by car." Kingsley picked up a copsible
wheelchair nearby. "I''ll just keep Reene from walking, okay?"
Reene slowly sat down in her wheelchair before covering herp with a quilt. She asked in
puzzlement, "What is this about, exactly? You sound so mysterious…"
"You''ll know what it is once we''re there. You''re gonna regret it if you don''t get to see it!"
Upon hearing his words, Alice smiled in resignation. "Fine, just go, you two. I''ll go tell Director
Church that you''ve agreed to attend the medical forum."
While Kingsley was wheeling Reene to the parking lot, the Wynns were busy working their *sses off.
They were almost shattered by the unending stream of grievous news. Alex was crippled for life,
and rk Corporation was kicked out of the Rosnd Chamber of Commerce. Onerge
corporation after another imposed sanctions against thepany. Their past coborative partners
turned against them; not only that, but they even twisted the knife in the wound!
Just when Henry, rence, and others were worried to death, a piece of good news suddenly
came: Ares, the God of War, was found! After going through the surveince footage, they finally
found Ares under a bridge!
Henry started as if in a state of terminal lucidity. He said excitedly, "Hurry up and gather everyone
avable in the family to go there and apologize to Ares together!"
A whileter, a bizarre scene appeared under an overpass at Cleapolis'' old town area. A dozen
formally dressed men and women stood respectfully near the overpass with looks of solemnness
and awe on their faces.
At the sight of the scene, the people around them stopped to look on.
"What''s going on here? Are they filming a movie or something?"
"No way! Look at the old man leading them. He''s got to be over 80; he can hardly keep his feet…"
Just when everyone was puzzled as to what was going on, Henry bent his knees and knelt on the
hot concrete floor scorched by the sun. The next instant, the other members of the Wynn Family
followed suit. They were all dressed in expensive designer suits, so the scene of them kneeling
down all at once looked somewhat impressive.
"Hiss… What''s going on here?"
"Why do they kneel down together?"
At the sight of this, the onlookers gasped in puzzlement.
Meanwhile, a ck SUV stopped at the side of a road nearby. The SUV was Alice''s; Kingsley''s car
had been sent to the mechanics for repairs, so he had no choice but to drive her car for the time
being.
Kingsley was convulsed withughter inside the car while pointing at the kneeling members of the
Wynn Family. "Haha… Look, Reene! Henry is the first to kneel down! Haha…"
Reene eximed in surprise, "Grandpa, Uncle rence, Aunt Sophia, Dad, Mom, Uncle Sean, and
Aunt Sally… Why are they all here? Who are they kneeling to?"
"Reene, you''ll know that very soon… This is so damn funny…" Kingsley wiped away his tears of
amusement. "Reene, I dare say you''re gonnaugh yourself to tears when you seeter who they''re
kneeling to! Haha…"
