“That's it?” Sean smiled . “Do you know how many doctors I've called already? None of them can guarantee he can live past next June . ”

“Indeed, according to my estimation, your father will live for at most three or four months . To be honest, death may only mean relief to him,” Chen Zhao replied . “Nevertheless, I still think that I can delay his death . ”

Chen Zhao did not know Sean's purpose . However, as an illegal doctor, he had to follow one rule: never ask the client's motives .

The less he knew, the safer he would be .

Sean's family was surely not an ordinary one . Chen Zhao felt that his entire family might be in the mafia .

“But it'll cost more than just thirty thousand dollars . I need to come here once every week,” Chen Zhao said, looking at Sean .

“Once every week, thirty thousand each time . A reasonable price it is,” Sean nodded . “However, should my father die within a year, his death will also mark yours . ”

It was a blunt death threat!

Chen Zhao glanced at Old Sean and promised, “As long as it's not an accidental death, I can guarantee that he lives . ”

“Of course . ”

With great risk also comes great reward .

Chen Zhao indeed had to undertake an enormous risk, but if he managed to complete the task, he would receive at least 1 . 5 million dollars after a year .

After deducting Ethan's 20% commission, he would still get 1 . 2 million .

“Mr . Sean, let me begin your father's first treatment . ”

“Do I need to leave?”

“No . ”

“Then let's start . ”

Chen Zhao helped Old Sean to dredge his meridians in order to improve his blood circulation .

In fact, even without demonic crystals, Chen Zhao was still confident that he could delay Old Sean's death .

Chen Zhao spent two entire hours for the acupuncture .

When he collected the needles back after two hours, Old Sean's face was clearly more ruddy .

Sean looked at Chen Zhao . He was now certain that Chen Zhao had not just been exaggerating .

He took out the thirty thousand dollars cash which he had prepared earlier . Taking the cash, Chen Zhao said, “Thank you . I should leave now . Mr . Sean, if you have any medical needs in the future, you can call me anytime . ”

“Bye . Donep, send Mr . Chen back to the city . ”

Chen Zhao slapped six thousand dollars onto Ethan's table . Filled with excitement, Ethan almost leaped onto Chen Zhao and kissed his cheek, but Chen Zhao rejected him forcefully .

“Chen, I knew you could do it! You're amazing!”

Six thousand was indeed a huge sum for Ethan .

“Since you're so happy, how about treat me to a lunch out to thank me?”

“Li made many burgers . Let's eat here . The kids like my burgers too . ”

“Stingy . ”

“You just earned over twenty thousand . Why not you treat me?”

“Don't even think about it . ”

“You're Chinese . You should be more generous…”

“This has nothing to do with nationality . I earned my money through hard work . ”

“Finding clients for you is hard work as well . ”

Just then, Ethan's phone rang . After he answered the call, he said to Chen Zhao, “Look, another client, but not so much money this time . Only five hundred . Do you want it?”

“What kind of client is it?”

“UCLA . I only know it's a group of students . They probably got themselves into some kind of trouble . ”

University of California is a public university system which comprises ten campuses . Its main campus used to be in Oakland, but now there is no longer a main campus and all of them have the same level . UCLA, or University of California, Los Angeles, is one of them .

“Oh yeah, Vincent is no longer driving, right? I heard that he's planning to become an actor . Did you help him?”

“What's strange about it? Who in Los Angeles doesn't dream of becoming a star? Do you dare to say that you've never thought about it?”

Every Angeleno is an actor . Indeed, Hollywood's development has influenced every corner of Los Angeles . Most people in Los Angeles have a job that is in one way or another related to Hollywood .

Who would not want to appear on a screen in pure glamour and beauty? Even older people might have the same dream .

“It's a difficult path . ”

“At least he has the path before him,” Chen Zhao said .

Vincent had obtained this opportunity because of the relations.h.i.+p between Chen Zhao and Steven, but the opportunity would not be long lasting . If he could manage to have a fantastic performance in his next two or three plays, perhaps an agency would find him and offer him more opportunities in the future .

On the other hand, if his performance was only mediocre, he would return to his ordinary life .

Of course, the key was whether the movie itself had a huge box office taking . If it was a very popular film, the characters inside would also look showy .

Another possibility was if he was extremely lucky and a film just wanted a new actor as the lead . However, the odds were exceptionally low . There were indeed actors in Hollywood who became famous overnight, but no more than one or two every year .

Moreover, Vincent's circ.u.mstances were rather special .

Chen Zhao really hoped that Vincent would succeed . To this end, he was willing to help him whenever he could .

Eveleigh Model had been constantly persuading her roommate Diana Bilis . At the moment, Diana's face was as pale as a sheet .

Both of them were medical students, so they roughly knew how severe the situation was .

“Diana, let me send you to the hospital . You can't delay anymore . Your situation is very dangerous . ”

“No way,” Diana answered stubbornly, gritting her teeth . Even though she was already very weak, she was still unwilling to go to the hospital .

“d.a.m.n! If you insist on doing this, you'll really die!”

“I've already called a doctor,” Diana said with a weak voice .

“Are you an idiot? You've already been harmed by an illegal doctor, and now you're calling another one here!” Eveleigh roared in anger . “We both read medicine . You should know the risks of finding an illegal doctor . They mostly have had no proper medical training . Some can't even distinguish the various kinds of scalpels . Do you know…”

“I know . If someone finds out about my illegal abortion, all of my secrets will be exposed . I may even be prosecuted,” Diana said . “So you'll help me to keep my secrets, right?”

Eveleigh seemed somewhat hesitant . “As long as you're completely safe, I'll keep your secrets . However, if you life is at stake, I'll call an ambulance immediately . When will the doctor arrive?”
