“I-Invite Ares, the God of War, to dinner?!” Jeffred exclaimed bitterly, a little speechless. “Aren’t you
trying to put me in a difficult situation? Don’t you know what kind of figure Ares, the God of War, is? Do
you think it’s possible to invite him whenever we want to?!”
Stanley then replied with a smile, “That’s why I came to ask you for help!”
Without waiting for Jeffred to refuse, he continued, “Director Church, remember the time when you and
several other doctors who came back from overseas were competing for the director position in Hill
Crest Hospital? If I hadn’t convinced Director Wayne of the Health Bureau, did you think you would
have stood out from them?”
“I…” Jeffred’s face suddenly darkened when he heard Stanley’s words.
“This… President Kean, of course, I will not forget your kindness and virtue… How about this? I will try
my best to invite Ares, the God of War, to have dinner with you. Don’t blame me if it doesn’t work out,
though!”
Hearing that, Stanley immediately rejoiced. “It’s decided, then! I will inform you of the banquet venue
tomorrow as soon as possible!”
After hanging up the phone, Jeffred spat and scolded, “Pfft! What kind of bullsh*t is he talking about?!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIsn’t he embarrassed to be mentioning a small favor from years ago?!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the phone rang again.
“Hey, Mr. Lawrence. Yes. That’s right… But I have already promised President Stanley Kean of Kean
Corporation. Yes, you may negotiate with him…”
The sweat on Jeffred’s forehead started dripping down from his temples.
It was another person who wanted to befriend Ares, the God of War!
Ring! Ring!
“Hello, President Sanders. Yes. Kean Corporation will be hosting a banquet for Ares, the God of War…”
Ring! Ring!
“Hello, Mr. Ziegler…”
“Hi, Director Murphy…”
…
Within an hour, Jeffred had answered numerous phone calls. There were no exceptions because all of
them were asking for Ares, the God of War!
The series of calls had threatened to burn his phone up!
When his phone automatically shut down because it ran out of power, he was finally free to wipe the
cold sweat off his forehead.
“Darn it! I didn’t expect to alert so many big shots…”
Without further delay, Jeffred trotted to Reene’s ward.
He passed everyone to Stanley just now. If he could not invite Ares, the God of War, he was afraid that
Stanley would rip him apart!
When he arrived at Reene’s ward, Jeffred knocked on the door before entering. He then saw Kingsley
and the girls chatting happily.
Noticing Jeffred walking in, Kingsley restrained his smile, inquiring, “What’s the matter, Director
Church?”
“Um… Mr. Nicholson, I have something to ask of you…”
“Go ahead.”
“It might be inconvenient to say it here…” Jeffred was discerning and did not dare to reveal Kingsley’s
identity as Ares, the God of War.
Kingsley raised his brows, presuming that Jeffred already knew that Alice was his godsister. Adding to
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthe fact that he was hesitant to speak, it seemed that there was really something important.
Thinking of that, he stood up and said to Reene and Alice, “I’ll talk to Director Church and be back in a
while.”
Seeing Jeffred respectfully following Kingsley out of the ward, Alice gloated cheerfully, “Hahaha.
Director Church has always tried to bully me, but seeing him being servile to Kingsley is so satisfying!”
“You said it!” Reene nodded and said, “Even my career has become smoother since Kingsley came
back…”
Just as the two girls were sighing emotionally, Kingsley and Jeffred came to the director’s office.
Jeffred motioned for Kingsley to take a seat in his chair while he stood respectfully aside.
Kingsley glanced at him and said indifferently, “What’s the matter, Director Church? We can talk now,
right?”
“Yes, Mr. Nicholson. Well…” Jeffred uttered while nodding. “Stanley Kean, the president of Kean
Corporation, called to invite you to dinner tomorrow. I was wondering whether you would be free to
attend the event.”
“Why does Stanley want to invite me to dinner?” Kingsley asked. “I don’t think I know him, though?”
“Uhh…” Jeffred lowered his head and stammered, “H-He wants to invite Ares, the God of War…”
Hearing that, Kingsley instantly understood what was going on. The corners of his mouth twitched as
he questioned, “You’re pretty quick to catch on, aren’t you? Have you already found out my identity?”
