This was Alice’s first time taking part in an event of this level. She was nervous to begin with, and the
fact that so many medical elites were zoning in on them made her blanch. Still, she took a deep breath
and stood in front of Kingsley. “I’m a cardiologist from Hill Crest Hospital. Come at me if you want, but
leave him alone.”
Seth was filled with envy. “You trash! Is hiding behind a woman all you can do? That’s not what you did
just a while ago!” Seth roared. “Why? Need a woman to protect you now that you’re a public enemy?”
Alice shot him an icy look. “He’s my brother. Of course I’m protecting him.”
“As if!” Seth sneered. “He’s your lover, more like!” He leered at Alice again without hiding his desire.
Seth remarked sarcastically, “You don’t have to pretend you’re so innocent. There’s no way your tits
can grow so big unless it’s been fondled by a dozen guys. There’s no way he’s your brother! I bet he
f*cks you all the time!”
“What? That’s a lie!” Alice’s chest heaved with anger. “Is this how a student of Mr. Zinkleigh acts?
That’s vulgar!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSeth was filled with horror for a moment. He was overwhelmed with envy and let his real colors loose
for a moment. “Um, I-I was just being rash.” He noticed the weird looks the other doctors were giving
him, so he quickly defended himself. “I was just too angry. That wasn’t what I meant.” The doctors
might be sleazeballs in secret, but they were still elite researchers on the surface, so they had looks of
disapproval on their faces. Maybe they were just pretending to be gentlemen because of their job.
Just when Seth thought it was all over, one of his doctor friends said, “He’s just defending Mr. Zinkleigh.
People do all sorts of stuff when they’re angry. I’d be mad too if someone insulted my own teacher.”
“Yes, true.” Seth took the chance to take a step back. “I respect Mr. Zinkleigh deeply. I would kill for
him, let alone getting into an argument.” Thanks to that, Seth managed to make himself look like an
ardent defender of his teacher instead of a vulgar pervert.
Tristan looked a lot happier, and he nodded. “I can understand where you come from.” He looked at
Kingsley coldly. “You hurt my student, and now you insulted me. What’s more, you almost ruined my
student’s reputation, young man. How do you want to settle this?”
“How? Easy.” Kingsley cracked his neck a couple of times. “Either your student begs for Alice’s
forgiveness, or you and him beg for her forgiveness. And remember to grovel.”
Tristan froze up, then he laughed mirthlessly. “That’s impudent of you, young man.” He squinted at
Kingsley. “If I’m right, this is the first time Hill Crest Hospital is qualified to attend this forum, isn’t it? Do
you have any idea what will happen to your careers after what you just did?”

Alice heard the threat, and she looked horrified. She held Kingsley’s arm and whispered, “Just take a
step back, Kingsley. We can’t win.”
“Calm down, Alice.” Kingsley smiled and looked at Tristan. “And if I’m right, this is the last time you’re
coming to this forum, geezer.”
The crowd gasped, horrified by how arrogant Kingsley was.
Tristan almost screamed. “How dare you say that?” He looked around the lobby and announced, “Hill
Crest doctors, where are you? Anyone else from Hill Crest Hospital here?”
Everyone looked around at the same time.
Alan had been hiding behind the crowd, but then he came forward and smiled sheepishly. “H-Here,
professor.” Scott gave Hill Crest Hospital five slots this time, and Jeffred gave one of them to Alan as
he was the most respected doctor in Hill Crest.
Tristan saw him, and he frowned. “I’ve seen you before. You’re that ancient healing researcher. What’s
your name again?”
