Category: Son-In-Law Madness Novel (Donald Campbell novel)

Kevin laughed out loud upon hearing Donald’s words. “Donald, are you out of your mind? Have the millions of debt made you crazy? What do you mean there’s a million in here? I’ll believe you if you say it’s a hundred pieces of old newspaper.”
At that point, Jennifer felt a surge of helplessness rising within her. Why is he still acting like a fool? What’s the point of protecting his ego now? Is this even the Donald Campbell that I know?
Then she glanced at Donald and said to Harrison and the others, “It’s time. Let’s go in.”
Harrison kicked the bag on the floor and instructed, “Kev, take the bag. I don’t care what’s in the bag anymore. We’ll just pretend that Donald has cleared his debt.”
Subconsciously, Jennifer lifted her head to glance at Harrison, which made the latter excited.
“You can go ahead. I’ll catch up with you after I have a little chat with Donald,” said Skylar.
After watching Jennifer leave, Donald’s expression remained unshaken as he spoke to Skylar. “Spit it out.”
The disdainful look on Skylar’s face intensified. “Donald, just give up on Jennifer. How about you file a divorce with her tomorrow?”
Upon hearing that, Donald remained unfazed and replied nonchalantly, “Why?”
“You don’t deserve Jennifer.” Skylar scorned and continued, “Look, you can’t even enter the opera house where Wynter is performing tonight. On the contrary, look at Harrison, who not only has the right to enter the venue but has four available tickets. Jennifer will get the life she deserves if she marries Harrison. But what can she get when she’s with you? Millions of debt?”
Donald smirked coldly. “Most importantly, it’s because you can get what you want as well. Am I right?”
“Why does it matter? Harrison treats Jennifer, Kevin, and me well. Besides, I already have my own house and car. You’re too useless as a brother-in-law. That’s all I have to say. You better look out for yourself,” lectured Skylar, flipping her hair before jogging toward Jennifer and the others.
Just when Skylar reached the entrance of the opera house, she halted her steps and widened her eyes in disbelief.
A custom-made Rolls-Royce was parked in front of the entrance, and an elderly gentleman in a suit exited the vehicle while holding a cane. He was a majestic and dignified man in his seventies with a formidable aura.
The elderly man was none other than the richest man in Pollerton – Charles Langford.
Following closely behind the Rolls-Royce was a red Aston Martin with a forty-eight million market value. Not long after, Lana, who was in a scarlet red gown, got out of the luxurious ride.
Skylar had only seen those two people through various media, but never did she expect to encounter them in person.
She was elated as she stared at Lana with admiration. She’s the most powerful businesswoman in Pollerton, and she’s my idol!
“Mr. Langford, please wait.” Suddenly, Lana stopped Charles.
Charles turned around and answered, “Oh, it’s you, Ms. Collins. What’s going on?”
“It’s about the Southwood E-commerce District project that you’ve mentioned to me before. What’s your decision?” Lana asked.
“Southwood E-commerce District is five hundred and thirty-thousand square meters large and has a thirty billion market value. I’ll have my master discuss it with you personally,” Charles replied.
Lana was stunned momentarily and responded, “All right. Please give me his contact, then.”
Skylar’s jaw dropped after she overheard the entire conversation.
Goodness gracious! I can’t believe the wealthiest man in Pollerton has a master above him! I wonder how much richer is his master? Not only that, but Skylar also recalled that Pollerton Opera House belonged to Charles, which also meant that it was his master’s asset as well.

“My master is only twenty-seven years old this year. I hope you’ll communicate with him frequently, Ms. Collins.” Charles tossed an odd glance at Lana before taking out a business card from his pocket and handing it to the latter.
Lana accepted the business card and put it in her purse carefully.
He’s so young and rich. If only I can marry him… Although the distance between Skylar and Lana was quite far away, Skylar had incredible eyesight, which allowed her to read the contact number on the name card clearly. After memorizing the string of numbers, she entered the opera house.
Meanwhile, Lana and Charles did not notice Donald, who was standing far away from the entrance and contemplating whether to enter the building.
After a brief consideration, Donald decided to get into the building.
However, just when he reached the entrance, he was stopped by two usherettes. One of them was Yvette Zeller, Donald’s high school classmate.
“Donald Campbell?” Yvette furrowed her brows and stared at Donald, recalling the days when rumors about them being a couple circulated.
“Please show your ticket.” Quickly, Yvette regained her composure and said calmly as she took a closer look at Donald.
Yvette was a tall and slender lady. She was dressed in a body-hugging side slit black dress that accentuated her curvy figure. Ever since Yvette graduated from Pollerton Film Academy, she had been preparing to start her career in the acting industry.
When she learned about Wynter’s visit to the opera house, she begged her wealthy boyfriend to let her work as an usherette there, hoping someone would notice her and bring her fame. Yvette knew that everyone who visited the opera house tonight was rich or famous, and that included tycoons in the entertainment industry.
She had a good eye, so she could easily tell the worth of Donald’s outfit as she sized him down.
There’s no brand, and the design is plain. This won’t cost most than two hundred. Looks like you’re not doing so well these days, huh?
“I don’t have a ticket,” Donald muttered.
At that instant, the disdain on Yvette’s face deepened. “I’m sorry, then. You’re not allowed to enter.”
“Get lost.” Donald was in a terrible mood.
Yvette’s face fell immediately as she warned Donald, “Mind your attitude, Donald. Everyone who visits this place today is esteemed. What makes you think you have the right to enter? Where did you even get your confidence from?”
Upon hearing her remarks, Donald merely glared at her icily with an increasingly sarcastic look on his face.
I’ve only been away from the industry for a few years, but everyone has been trying to ridicule me lately.
“Sir, please refrain from causing any trouble. Yvette’s boyfriend is powerful, and this might be the last time you can get this close to Yvette. Soon, the only way you can see her is through the big screens,” said the other usherette smilingly.
Before Donald could respond to that, a short-haired young lady hurried out of the opera house.
After seeing the young lady, the usherettes lowered their heads instantaneously and did not dare to speak anymore.
The short-haired lady was Wynter’s manager, who was also a top manager that was highly capable.
At first, the manager simply glanced at Yvette and the other usherette menacingly, causing them to shudder.
What’s going on? Is Donald actually a big shot? He doesn’t look like one, no matter how I look at him!
“You’re here?” greeted the manager with a cheerful grin. “The show is starting soon. Please enter and maintain the order of the venue.”
Yvette let out a sigh of relief and watched Donald’s back as he left, then mumbled in a strange tone, “Looks like he’s just a security guard who’s here to control the crowd.”
As soon as Donald entered the venue, the manager wanted to salute him. He stopped her from doing so and said, “It’s fine. Where’s my private room?”
“It’s Heavenly Private Room.” Swiftly, the manager led Donald to Heavenly Private Room through the priority lane.
There were over thirty private rooms in Pollerton Opera House, and only the most distinguished people in Pollerton could be seated in those private rooms.
However, the Heavenly Private Room had never been used even once after it was renovated.

Who is he?
Through the broken rear-view mirror, the man saw the kickboxer and the previous driver covering their necks and crouching on the ground. Their whole bodies were twitching, and they eventually fell to their deaths.
No one saw how Donald killed them.
What the hell?
Holding the steering wheel with both hands, he stared at Donald in disbelief. With such strength, he must be one of the strongest men in the world!
“Where’s your stronghold?” Like a killer, Donald stretched out his hand expressionlessly and grabbed the man’s neck, dragging him out of the van.
However, blood began to gush out from the latter’s facial orifices, and he died in an instant.
Frowning, Donald threw him on the ground and examined his body. “Cyanide.”
Meanwhile, the woman with her hands and feet tied struggled and stared at Donald with a forlorn expression. Glancing at her, he flicked his fingers, and a shard of glass flew out, severing the rope around her body.
Subsequently, he searched for useful information in the van, but he found nothing. It was too clean.
“Why did they kidnap you?” He looked at the woman, only to see her removing the towel stuck in her mouth.
Then, she gasped a couple of times and stretched lazily. “Who knows?”
In response, Donald shot her an intense glance. If she doesn’t want to tell me, then forget it.
Instantaneously, he got out of the van and removed all his scents and traces. Not only that, but he also arranged for someone to remove all the surveillance footage along the way.
Moments later, Lana jumped off the vehicle.
Even though she looked a bit disheveled, she was still stunning and beautiful. Her bright red dress accentuated her elegance, and her crystal-clear eyes were sparkling with an exquisite gleam.
She was as charming as Hannah and Jennifer. However, Jennifer was gentle and virtuous, while Hannah was cold and had an unapproachable demeanor. Wynter was a graceful and sophisticated woman. On the contrary, Lana was sexy and alluring. She had a perfect body figure and was every man’s dream girl.
“I’m Lana Collins.” Shortly afterward, she approached him and stretched out her slender hand.
Donald did not shake her hand. “We only met each other by chance. It’s better to forget me and forget everything you see today.”
With that, he hopped on the shared bike and was about to leave.
“Hey, how could you leave me here alone? What if they kidnap me again?” Anxious, she stomped her foot, and her breasts started to jiggle. Supposedly, such a slim figure should not be that busty.
“With your status, I believe someone will pick you up soon,” he answered.
“No, you must take me with you. Those people are useless. How can they let these abductors kidnap me right under their noses? I don’t trust them anymore. I only have faith in you,” said Lana.
A look of impatience appeared on his face as he stated, “I don’t have time for this.”
His words caught her by surprise.
What’s wrong with him? Does he not know how many people in Pollerton want to get in my favor?
“How dense of you! The men who are in love with me could line up from here and all the way to Ferropene, but now, I’m giving you a chance to pursue me. I’m capable of anything.” As she said that, she licked her lips like a seductress.
Donald sneered, “Then, kindly ask the men who were lining up in Ferropene to send me a bottle of red wine.”
In an instant, she was bereft of speech.
“I’ll pay you one million. Bring me back.” It was the first time she wanted to beat someone up.
“Pay in cash and write me a receipt as the proof of payment,” he responded.

One million just to bring her back? This is such a huge bargain. It’s a good chance to earn money. Besides, if I can show Jennifer the proof of payment, it will save me a lot of trouble. For instance, I can explain how I manage to get so much money in such a short amount of time. Jennifer loves me, and I love her too. For the time being, I don’t want her to enter my world. Her world is peaceful, but mine is dark and dangerous.
Puzzled, Lana asked, “Someone will pick me up in the downtown area, and I’ll pay you one million in cash when we’re there. Why do I need to write a receipt?”
Immediately, Donald’s expression softened. “To show it to my wife. Otherwise, she might think I earned the money illegally. She’ll be anxious.”
Once Lana heard that, sorrow was written all over her face. “You’re married? I’m sad and heartbroken,” she commented while pursing her lips.
The next moment, Donald let out a sarcastic laugh.
Her words could only deceive those innocent young men as well as those wealthy men who were overwhelmed by lust.
“What should I write?” Lana rolled her eyes.
“Just write that I’ve saved you today, and you’re very grateful to me. Hence, you’re paying me a large sum of money to show your appreciation. Then, sign your name below.”
Hearing that, she twitched her lips in disdain and reached for her lipstick and a piece of tissue from her bag.
“Don’t use lipstick,” uttered Donald.
The rage within her instantly imploded. “Take it or leave it!”
“Fine.” Left with no choice, he could only nod.
After she finished writing, she got on the bicycle. Fortunately, the bicycle had a back seat and was designed for two people. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to bring her along.
Crossing her legs, Lana sat in the rear seat and wrapped one of her arms around his waist. Her cheeks were slightly reddened.
As night fell, the street lights lit up.
She seemed to be a little tired, tilting her head and leaning on his back. She flushed when she heard his strong heartbeat and smelled the subtle scent of tobacco on his body.
Lifting her head, she narrowed her eyes and watched as the street lights faded from view. As a gentle breeze brushed across her face, she perked up.
It was the first time someone had given her a ride on a bicycle.
“Donald, don’t you think that this is such a heartwarming scene?” she murmured.
“I don’t know,” the man in front replied.
Her face lit up with a smile. After some deliberation, she quickly fished out her phone, wrapped her arm around his waist, leaned on his back, and shot a selfie after putting on a blissful expression. Then, she posted it on Instagram and wrote: A rare heartwarming moment. I wish time could stop so that this could go on forever.
Within a minute, there were a lot of comments on her post.
One of the wealthy men commented: My queen, I’m sorry that I was late. I shall take my leave now. Behind the words was a crying emoticon.
Immediately, Lana replied: How pretentious! Where did you learn these idiotic lines? I’m blacklisting you!
Subsequently, she blocked the man on Instagram.
Another wealthy man wrote: Goddess, who is this man? We can only see his back. Please show us his face. I bet he must be very poor. He’s dressed so lowly.
Moments later, she responded: I don’t need my man to be rich because no one is wealthier than me. You’ll be added to the blacklist as well.
Most of the comments were: Damn. I’m so upset that my goddess has a boyfriend.
Goddess, please tell us who he is!
Goddess, when will you show him to us?
In the meantime, Wynter, who was at Pollerton Opera House, also happened to see Lana’s Instagram post. Instantaneously, she grew suspicious and zoomed in on the photo.
Why does this back look so familiar?

As Hannah walked away, she said, “Don’t worry. I’ll either give him a call or visit him every night to urge him to pay up.”
Everyone was taken aback upon hearing that. That’s too good to be true!
After all, Hannah was a brilliant doctor. Besides, she was pretty and came from a privileged background.
If Hannah would really give him a call or visit him every night, they might even develop feelings for each other.
Besides, Donald was a handsome guy. With his deep, wistful eyes, he seemed to be a person who had been through many tough experiences.
“Major-General Nixon,” Harrison politely greeted.
However, Ryan refused to look at him. “Get lost, and stop blabbering!”
Immediately, Harrison’s expression darkened as he felt humiliated by Ryan.
A moment later, Hannah had changed into typical attire and walked up to Donald. “Give me your phone.”
“Why should I give you my phone?” Donald asked.
“I said I want your phone number!” Hannah snapped and gritted her teeth slightly.
Realization dawned on him as he quickly gave his phone number to her.
“Remember that you owe me six million six hundred thousand.” The woman then walked away with her head high, refusing to look at Jennifer for the entire time.
Jennifer had a bad premonition about it. Will something happen between Hannah and my husband?
When that thought appeared in her mind, her heart sank.
With their current financial situation, there was no way they could pay up six million six hundred thousand even if they worked for the rest of their lives.
Besides, Hannah seemed weirdly close to Donald.
“Do you know Hannah?” Jennifer asked again, a trace of coldness flashing across her face.
Donald replied, “I told you I don’t know her!”
“You’re getting impatient,” she mumbled as the bad feeling in her heart intensified.
It was not her fault, for Hannah was the type of person who could attract attention wherever she went. Although Jennifer’s looks were on par with her, she could not compete with the latter’s confidence.
“Don’t get too close with Harrison. You hear me?” Donald furrowed his eyebrows. “I’ll pay the six hundred thousand back to him, so you shouldn’t do something like that.”
“How are you going to do that? It’s six hundred thousand we’re talking about!” Jennifer was on the verge of losing her temper.
Combined with the six hundred thousand they owed Harrison, they were currently in debt of seven million two hundred thousand.
Just thinking of that huge sum of money caused her chest to tighten in anxiousness.
Donald stared deep into her eyes, but before he could defend himself, he received a phone call from his employee. “Donald, it’s been more than ten days since the company failed to have any business. Everyone is going to resign soon. Hank is bringing everyone to job hop to Stardust Corporation. The salary they offer is thirty percent more than what you can offer…”
Donald furrowed his eyebrows.
Although he did not care much about a company that had annual revenue of three hundred thousand, the company was founded by his grandfather. Thus, he did not wish for it to go bankrupt in his hands.
Thinking of that, he turned to Jennifer and said, “I’m going back to the office.”
She did not say anything, but her eyes were clouded with tears when she gazed at his leaving figure.

Ever since she gave Donald’s savings to Kevin, her relationship with Donald had drifted apart. Besides, Donald throwing six hundred grand away had further caused a rift in their relationship.
In her opinion, Donald was suffering a setback in his life. The way he chucked those bills out of the window was the evidence of it.
Thus, that made her very upset.
“It’s known that a poor couple equals a miserable marriage. You and Donald have no future together. I’ve seen too many cases like Donald. He will soon break down from the burden of debts, not to mention his grandfather’s hefty medical fees. A single pill already costs five hundred, and more miscellaneous fees will come. There’s no way he can afford it.” Harrison looked at Jennifer with his burning eyes.
Jennifer wiped the tears off the corner of her eyes. “I’m going to visit Grandpa.”
Harrison knew he could not rush things, so he decided to leave.
Donald’s renovation company was called Stellar Corporation. It had eight employees, with Hank Yelverton having the most experience out of all of them. Thus, he also had the highest salary of twenty thousand per month. As for the other employees’ wages, it was also higher than people in the same trade.
Stellar Corporation was currently situated in a small office in Primordial Tower. Even though the size of the office was only one hundred square meters, its rental was around one hundred thousand annually.
On the way there, Donald phoned Charles. “Charlie, please help me to acquire a renovation company in Primordial Tower for me.”
Charles answered, “All right, but actually, the entire Primordial Tower is yours.”
After hanging up the call, Donald entered the office. Eight employees were waiting for him there with pity written all over their faces, especially Hank, who anticipated watching a good show.
Hank was the department manager and the core employee of the company. Thus, his resignation would mean the company would lose ninety percent of its customers and orders.
“Donald, this is my resignation letter.” Hank took the lead to hand in the letter to Donald.
Donald immediately signed it without even looking at the content. “Who else wants to hand in their resignation letter?”
Upon hearing that, the rest of them passed their resignation letters to Donald except for a twenty-five-year-old young man.
Without any expression on his face, Donald signed all of them.
Suddenly, Hank spoke. “Congratulations on your bankruptcy! Stellar Corporation will close down soon.”
At that, Donald finally lifted his head and looked at him. “You’ve been working under my grandpa for more than ten years and under me for about five years. Tell me. Did we ever mistreat you? When your mother fell sick back then, I even forked out more than one hundred thousand to treat her. However, you’ve never paid me back.”
Hank narrowed his eyes and responded, “I didn’t ask you to do that. You gave it to me willingly. Legally speaking, one cannot get back the funds gifted to another. Thus, I don’t owe you money.”
Donald had a mocking expression on his face as he pointed next door. “How much did they offer you?”
“A basic salary of two thousand. However, I can get a ten percent commission for all sales,” Hank replied. “They’re way more generous than you.”
Donald still remained indifferent.
Then, he turned to look at the only person who did not hand in his resignation letter. “Dan, how about you?”
After pondering for a moment, Daniel Wallace replied, “I won’t leave unless you fire me.”
“How stupid!” Hank shot a revolted look at Daniel before standing up. “Let’s go and report for work at Stardust Corporation.”
Donald stood up slowly. “Dan, good job. You can continue to stay here. I’ll promote you to department manager with a monthly salary of thirty thousand. On top of that, I’ll give you another thirty percent of the shares of this company.”
After Donald said that, Hank and the others burst into laughter.
“It’s difficult for you even to have five hundred in your pocket, so stop pretending! Besides, what use does thirty percent of shares have? Stellar Corporation will not have a single sale after we leave, so who’re you trying to fool by giving a monthly salary of thirty thousand?” Hank chuckled coldly.

Everyone was stunned. What’s going on?
Never had they expected that Hannah would break her own rules and volunteer to perform surgery for that elderly person.
Is Donald some sort of big shot?
During the whole time, she had never once laid her eyes on Donald. With one command, the nurses made the necessary preparations for the surgery obediently according to her instructions. Clearly, she held a prestigious place in their hearts.
Hannah was truly amazing.
As the nurses bustled about, they began pushing Donald’s grandfather into the operating room.
The green light in the operating room lit up.
In that instant, Donald lost his usual calmness and could not stop his heart from throbbing wildly.
Jennifer pondered for a minute and decided to wait side-by-side with her husband. Before she could say a word, her phone rang. She snuck glances between her phone and her husband, feeling a tad guilty.
Wearing a nonchalant countenance, Donald prompted, “Go ahead and answer it.”
Jennifer hesitated for a long while before finally picking up the call.
Harrison’s voice sounded from the phone. “I’ve just got the news, Jenny! The diva is holding her limited concert here in Pollerton tonight. There’ll be a lot of famous people joining, and I got two VIP tickets. So, are you free tonight? I know you’re her fan.”
Jennifer wanted to reject his offer, but then she remembered the six hundred thousand that had been dumped by Donald. She procrastinated for a bit and agreed, “Okay, I’ll go.”
The diva was none other than Wynter Lowe.
Having more than billions of fans, she was an international superstar, possessing an angelic singing voice.
It had been more than ten years since her debut, and yet she had never been embroiled in any scandal or rumor.
“Give me some time, Darling. I’ll sever my ties with him,” Jennifer gently explained to her husband.
“I’ll return him that six hundred thousand, so you don’t have to go,” Donald uttered as he knitted his brows.
Hearing his words, she was taken aback before heaving a sigh. For the first time ever, she was somewhat disappointed in her husband.

She had always known about her husband’s financial situation. As a business owner, he had a start-up renovation company, which could only earn about three hundred to four hundred thousand every year. Since his grandfather was caught in a health problem, surely, his business had to come to a complete halt. Considering the customers he had lost, he would not be able to have a comeback anymore. Jennifer anticipated that her husband would be a vagrant in the coming days.
Hence, it would be tough for him to cough up six hundred thousand.
“You know Hannah?” Jennifer piped up.
“No. Don’t have the right to know her,” Donald answered.
She then realized that Hannah was indeed from the upper class, so her husband could not have known Hannah personally.
Little did Jennifer know that her husband had meant that Hannah was the one unfit to know him instead.
Time was ticking away. Just then, the operating room’s door opened. Revealing only a pair of eyes, Hannah walked out of the room in her medical protective clothing coupled with a face mask. She exclaimed, “His condition’s not looking good. Not only does he have a brain tumor, but he also has kidney failure. We need to get him a kidney donor now! We have only two hours, at most!”
She shut the door right after she said those words.
Instantly, Donald felt a thunderous explosion in his head.
Prior to that, he had already gotten his grandfather’s health examination report, which showed that his kidneys were in tip-top condition, and he had only a brain tumor.
With only two hours, he figured he could never find a suitable kidney for his grandfather.
His expression darkened as he walked away and dialed Charles’ number on the phone. “Charlie! Get me a suitable kidney donor within an hour!”
Surprised, Charles responded, “What? Isn’t that already done last night? When I sent your grandfather’s medical history over, Hannah had deduced that both his kidneys are failing, so we made preparations to transfer the kidneys overnight. They should be there by half past nine later.”
It was Donald’s turn to be astonished. He gritted teeth in anger as he shouted, “This Hannah!”
Hanging up the phone, he glared at Liam, who was playing on his phone at the nurses’ station, and sneered, “Good job, you guys!”
The chubby doctor shuddered and blurted out, “M-Maybe the equipment went haywire…”
Meanwhile, Harrison received the news while he was lying leisurely in his Ferrari just outside the hospital. He burst into laughter and scoffed, “Incredible! Nothing could go wrong now. Donald may have solved all my puzzles, but now, even the heavens are on my side. I can’t believe the old man has got kidney failure.”
Sitting in the passenger seat, Kevin was enviously touching the interior of the car. He remarked, “Harrison, my brother-in-law. You’ve nothing to worry about because I’ll definitely tear them apart. Once the old man is gone, Donald would vent his anger on my sister. By then, I’d just fan the flames, and they’d go separate ways in no time.”
“Once you succeed, I’ll gift this car to you,” Harrison responded.
“Awesome!” Overwhelmed, Kevin was on the verge of tears after hearing that.
A Ferrari! I’ll never afford it my whole life!
Out of the blue, a Mercedes-Benz G-Class with a military registration plate pulled over near the hospital. “Huh? Why’s the car with a military license plate here?” Harrison questioned as he gawked at that car. Soon, that car’s door opened, and a tall and muscular figure got off the car with an iron box in his grip. That person then quickly marched into the hospital.

“My goodness! That’s Major-General Ryan Nixon!” Excitement filled Harrison’s eyes instantly. Ryan was the major-general stationed in Pollerton. He was Hannah’s elder brother at the age of thirty. A stomp of his foot would send shivers down the spines of the people in Pollerton.
“Let’s go see what he’s up to.” In a flash, both Harrison and Kevin got out of the car and trailed Ryan’s footsteps.
Standing outside the operating room, as Jennifer saw a man in an army uniform approaching them, her face fell.
She remembered seeing that man before in the news and on social media. He was the youngest major-general of Pollerton.
As Ryan stood at the door of the operating room, he cast a quick glance at Donald from the corner of his eyes. The moment his gaze landed on Donald. Ryan immediately hung his head low, his hands trembling in awe.
It’s been five years. I finally get to meet this legendary man. Never have I expected that he would be here in Pollerton. However, after recalling Charles’ advice, Ryan dared not to greet Donald.
Before he came to the hospital, Charles had reminded Ryan not to strike up any conversation with Lord Campbell unless he himself requested.
The operating room’s door opened again. Hannah grabbed the iron box from Ryan’s hand and turned her head toward Donald. “This is what we call suitable kidney.”
After some time, the operating room’s sign lit up. The nurses pushed Donald’s grandfather out of the room and made a beeline for the ICU.
Hannah soon exited the operating room and removed her face mask before informing, “The surgery was a success, but the patient still needs to stay in the hospital for observation.”
“Thank you,” Donald uttered.
Jennifer was stunned for a while.
What’s happening before my eyes? Where did the kidneys come from? Why would Hannah help my husband?
Hannah stated, “Each kidney costs eight hundred thousand, so that’s one million six hundred thousand for two. As for my consultation fee, it’s five million. That means the total is six million six hundred thousand. Remember that you owe me six million six hundred thousand.”
With that, she left.
Right then, Harrison went up to her with a smile and greeted her, “Hey, Ms. Nixon. It’s nice to see you again.”
“Who are you?” Hannah side-eyed him.
Harrison’s breath caught in his throat the moment he heard her response.
How rude! I also come from a family with medical knowledge, and I’ve even interacted with her before.
“My name is Harrison Queen. My father is Garrett Queen, my grandfather is Louis Queen, and—”
Before Harrison could continue blabbering, Hannah cut him off, “Stop! I don’t know you, and I don’t want to know you. Get lost.”
Hannah’s demeanor was cold and indifferent.
Harrison suddenly felt so embarrassed. Nevertheless, he pondered for a moment and said, “I heard that you only prefer to work in Nouveau Hospital and never wanted to step out. So, what brings you to help Donald with this surgery? Do you know each other?”
“No. Who am I to know him?” Hannah replied.
Hearing her reply, Harrison beamed happily as he thought what she had said made sense.
Hannah went on, “And why wouldn’t I carry out this surgery? The entire procedure costs six million six hundred thousand. Who would say no to that? If your family ever needs surgery like this, I’ll be the first to help you out.”
This woman is obviously cursing me!
Harrison could only smile wryly. “Donald is very poor. He can’t even fork out six hundred thousand even for the surgery fee alone.”

Half an hour later, Donald’s doorbell rang. Soon, an immaculately dressed elderly man walked into the house with a cane in his hand. He wore a tuxedo, and his hair was neatly combed.
Upon seeing Donald, the man got down on one knee and declared, “Lord Campbell, I’m your loyal butler, Charlie Langford. From now on, I will be taking care of your daily needs while you are in Pollerton.”
He was very agitated, as it was the first time he met Donald in person.
“You are the richest man in Pollerton, Charles Langford?” inquired Donald as he lowered his head to look at the elderly man. Charles’ nickname was Charlie, but not many people knew about it.
“Yes, Lord Campbell. From now on, you will be in charge of all my wealth and power,” Charles replied respectfully. If Pollerton’s upper class saw this scene, they would be utterly dumbstruck.
After all, being the richest man in Pollerton, Charles owned half of Pollerton’s wealth. Yet, he treated a young man with such respectfulness.
“Who’s your superior?” Donald asked.
“It’s Mr. Tristan Lane. He has been in West Epea for over a year now.”
Tristan Lane. I see, so it’s that brat.
As that thought crossed his mind, Donald replied, “Got it. Give me six hundred thousand now.”
Charles was startled. Does Lord Campbell only need six hundred thousand? However, he only paused for a moment before handing Donald a black card. “Lord Campbell, there is fifty billion in this card.”
He then handed Donald a gold card. “There is a hundred billion in this one.”
Donald casually took one of the cards and asked, “Which doctor in Pollerton is more skilled in craniotomy?”
Without any hesitation, Charles replied, “Of course, it will have to be Dr. Hannah Nixon from Nouveau Hospital. She’s a genius doctor. Though she’s only twenty-eight years old, she’s highly skilled in craniotomy, coronary artery bypass, and organ transplant surgeries!”
I heard that Nouveau hospital is not open to the public, and they only treat the rich and powerful. The hospital fees are also exorbitant. The consultation fee will be at least five million. Additionally, Hannah Nixon is a proud woman. She has never appeared in another hospital in Pollerton.
“Tell her to come to Pollerton General Hospital tomorrow at nine o’clock in the morning and prepare for my grandpa’s surgery. This is his whole body check-up report. Give this to her and tell her to prepare everything well tonight,” Donald ordered.
If Grandpa is not in the ICU and thus cannot be moved, I will have already transferred him to Nouveau Hospital.
Charles bowed and replied, “Yes, Mr. Campbell.”
After Charles left, Donald sighed.

I guess my mission will be coming soon now that I have activated the first level of Polaris System.
At eight o’clock in the morning on the following day, Donald arrived at Pollerton General Hospital and went to the ICU on the ninth floor. He immediately noticed Jennifer standing beside the window with a bulging men’s backpack beside her feet.
She wore a fitted, long black dress that showed off her elegant neck and slim waist. It could be seen that she had put on a layer of light, delicate makeup. Coupled with her fair skin, she looked gentle and sweet.
When she saw Donald, her eyes lit up, and she strode toward him. “Darling, here’s six hundred thousand.”
Donald glanced at the black bag and the light makeup on her face.
She rarely puts on makeup, and we don’t own this bag. It’s clear that she went to meet someone this morning and borrowed six hundred thousand.
“You met Harrison?” Donald asked.
Jennifer’s heart skipped a beat when she saw his emotionless face, but she still nodded and replied, “Yes, I borrowed six hundred thousand. I know Grandpa’s surgery is an emergency, so I…”
“So you put on makeup before going to see him?” Donald interrupted with a sarcastic smile on his face.
She froze for a moment before explaining, “I was afraid he won’t lend me the money, so—”
“So you showed off your charm? You spent a long time putting on this makeup. Am I right? Previously, you rarely put on makeup, and even if you do, you never spend more than ten minutes.”
Donald walked toward her and stared at her flawless face. She looked as if she had walked out of a painting.
“Darling, Grandpa’s surgery is crucial,” Jennifer had an unnatural look on her face.
“Did he promise you that you don’t need to return the money? Instead, did he invite you to go to the movies, eat dinner, and shop tonight? And you accepted his offer?” Donald questioned calmly.
She fell silent because he hit the bullseye.
In a flash, he grabbed the bag and threw it out of the window. “I don’t need this!”
The bills flew out from the bag and was scattered everywhere.
Jennifer was stunned, but she soon shrieked, “Donald, are you crazy? That’s 600 thousand! We need it to save Grandpa!”
Staring into her eyes, he declared, “Remember, I don’t need a smart or capable wife. I only have one condition. She can’t be a loose woman!”
Can’t be a loose woman? He’s calling me that!
Immediately, tears rolled down her cheeks, and she crouched down helplessly. “How am I a loose woman? We have known each other for so many years. How am I a loose woman?”
He then turned to leave, and he did not even spare a glance at the bills fluttering in the wind. However, some people were overjoyed to pick up the money.
“Get ready to start surgery at nine o’clock in the morning for the patient on Bed 18,” Donald ordered a nurse, who was at the nurses’ station.
Although the surgeon had changed, Donald still wanted Hagron Lyon, the original surgeon, to assist so that the chances of success could be higher.
The head nurse, Selena Tiffson, walked over. “Please pay all the fees.”
“I’ve paid it already,” Donald said, handing her a receipt.
She paused for a moment before informing Donald apologetically, “I’m sorry, but the attending physician, Dr. Lyon, is sick. He suddenly fainted just now. I’m afraid today’s surgery…”
Donald narrowed his eyes.
Did he faint out of the blue? I don’t believe this. Someone must have purposely done something to stop Dr. Lyon from coming. If Grandpa dies, I will vent my anger on Jennifer first. Thus, it’s obvious who’s behind this scheme.
“Continue with the preparations. The surgery will start on time,” Donald commanded with a knowing glint in his eye. First, this head nurse told me to pay all the medical fees, and when she realized I had paid everything, she told me the attending physician was sick. How interesting.

“But we don’t have a surgeon who could be the lead surgeon now.”
Instantly, Donald’s gaze turned cold as his face became emotionless. If Selena spoke another word, he would not hesitate to lash out and throttle her.
“Okay. I’ll inform my superior about this and arrange for another surgeon to come,” Selena replied in a trembling voice before dashing off.
When it was twenty minutes to nine o’clock in the morning, a pot-bellied doctor finally came. “Hi, I am Dr. Kendall. Because Dr. Lyon is sick, I will be taking over the surgery. However, I need to inform you that I specialize in cardiothoracic surgeries. I don’t specialize in neurology and oncology. Thus, if something goes wrong during the surgery, you can’t ask us to bear the responsibility. If you agree, please sign here.”
Donald took the form and shredded it to pieces. “You can go now. Someone else will be doing the surgery.”
“No other doctor in Pollerton except for Dr. Lyon is confident in doing the surgery,” Liam Kendall sneered.
Before Donald could reply, someone suddenly yelled, “Oh, my gosh! Is that Dr. Nixon? Doesn’t she work at Nouveau Hospital?”
Immediately, there was a commotion.
Jennifer’s attention was also drawn away.
A young woman with a height of one point seven five meters strode over. She was dressed in a figure-hugging dress that showed off her long, fair legs and curvaceous figure. Her hair was casually draped on her shoulders, and she had a pair of bright eyes.
However, she had a cold expression on her face, displaying an unapproachable demeanor.
Looks of excitement appeared on many of the nurses’ faces, as Hannah was famous in the medical field.
She had published fifty papers in international journals and was a professor at Pliston University. She had even performed major surgery on a member of Spaunia’s royal family.
Everyone wondered why she would be at the general hospital that day.
“I will be doing the surgery! Bring me to the changing room,” she declared coolly, ignoring everyone’s gazes.

“Look at you, Jennifer,” Donald sneered.
Jennifer grabbed his hand and begged in a trembling voice, “Donald, please believe me.”
“Jennifer, both of you should get a divorce. That Harrison Queen is extremely wealthy. He definitely has one hundred million worth of personal assets, so if you marry him, I won’t be so tired too,” Kevin suddenly chimed in.
Donald looked at him in disbelief. How are you even tired? You play around and gamble every day. You also borrow money to rent cars to show off to girls and hook up with them. On top of that, you don’t even go to work. For the past four to five years, the money Jennifer had given you was more than five hundred thousand. She has given you almost all her pay.
Jennifer’s parents also spoke up. “Good idea.”
Donald’s face darkened as he fumed internally.
How can they convince my wife to marry another man in front of me?
“Give me two million, or I’ll break your legs,” Donald ordered coldly.
Immediately, Kevin grabbed a wine bottle and hurled it at him, but Donald caught it and threw it back at Kevin.
The bottle smashed against Kevin’s forehead, and blood gushed out from the wound.
“Donald, why did you hit him?” Jennifer yelled furiously with red-rimmed eyes, looking like an angry lion.
“Get out! How dare you do this in my house!” howled Leonard.
Linda also screeched, “Divorce him! Jennifer, you must divorce him! Harrison is a hundred times better than him! How dare you hit my son! You must have a death wish!”
After she said that, she lunged at Donald and landed a hard slap on his face.
Smack!
As Donald did not duck, a bright red palm print immediately appeared on his face, and his expression turned thunderous.
After all, he had not been hit by anyone in years. However, Linda was still his mother-in-law.
“Go away, Donald! Go away!” Jennifer cried.
“I’m going to kill you! I’m going to kill you! Say goodbye to your money! I’m never returning the two million to you,” screamed Kevin.
Standing with her arms akimbo, Linda shrieked, “Scram, you ingrate!”
Donald glared at all of them before he slowly left and closed the door behind him.
After walking out of the neighborhood, he raised his gaze to stare at the moon in the sky and clenched his fists tightly.
Ten minutes later, he arrived at the house of his good friend, Rafe Miller.
“Rafe, my grandpa is still hospitalized. Can you lend me three hundred thousand?” Donald asked as he smoked a cigarette.
Immediately, Rafe handed him a card. “There are around eighty to ninety thousand inside. This is all the money I secretly saved. Sorry, Donald, but I don’t have any more money,” uttered Rafe as he looked at Donald apologetically.
“What are you doing, Rafe? Do you have a death wish?” Before Donald could take the card, a plump and sturdy woman squeezed in and snatched the card away. It was Rafe’s wife, Faye Scott.
“Get out of my house!” she yelled furiously as the flesh on her face jiggled.

Meanwhile, Rafe was too afraid to utter a word.
Donald patted Rafe on the shoulder and apologized, “Sorry for troubling you.”
After leaving Rafe’s house, Donald called his uncle. “Hello, Uncle Felix. Grandpa is sick, so I need six hundred thousand to pay for his surgery…”
However, it was his aunt who picked up the phone. She immediately yelled, “We don’t have money! I’m not going to give a single cent to that old man! Just tell him to die already!”
Right after that, she hung up the phone.
With a bang, Donald crushed his phone with his hands, and fire sparks danced in his hands.
Uncle Felix took Grandpa’s two houses, and those houses are worth more than five million! Yet, they refuse to pay for Grandpa’s hospital bills? That’s not how one should treat one’s father!
In the distance, Donald noticed the glaring headlights of a car, followed by the sounds of the engine roaring. A Ferrari 458 soon stopped before him, and Harrison came into sight after the window rolled down.
“You look like a dog right now. I guess it’s a sin to be poor. You need six hundred thousand. Am I right? I can give you the money,” Harrison remarked with a smirk.
Donald only glared at him menacingly as a glint of fury flashed across his eyes. Sitting in the passenger seat was Kevin with his head wrapped in bandages. Evidently, he had just gone to the hospital.
I’ve just left, and the next moment, Kevin is together with Harrison! It’s obvious that Harrison wants Jennifer!
“You’re not going to say anything? I only have one aim, and that is for you to divorce Jennifer. I’ll give you six hundred thousand as long as you divorce her,” Harrison sneered.
Kevin gave Donald the side-eye. “Donald, stop resisting. I know that nothing you and Jennifer haven’t done the deed yet. You’re no match for Harrison, so you and my sister are definitely going to get a divorce. Besides, Jennifer always listens to me!”
Donald walked over to the car, ready to teach them a lesson, but before he could do so, Harrison chuckled and floored the accelerator.
With that, the car sped off, and Kevin’s voice traveled over the distance into Donald’s ears.
“You really look like a dog!”
As Donald stared at the Ferrari, a sarcastic smile appeared on his face.
I’ve kept a low profile for the past four to five years, but now, people are bullying me. I just want to lead a simple and peaceful life! Since it’s impossible, it’s time for me to make a comeback!
With that thought in mind, Donald quickly went home and took out his laptop. After hesitating for a while, he opened an application and typed in his username and password.
“My supreme god, if you activate Polaris System, you will again have all the wealth under your disposal, but you will also have to bear the corresponding level of responsibility. Your life will no longer be peaceful. Do you want to proceed to activate it?” A robotic voice sounded.
Donald clicked “Yes” with his mouse.
“Welcome back, my supreme god! You have activated the first level. Do you want to activate the second level?”
After pondering for a moment, Donald clicked “No” and only activated the first level. If he activated all the nine levels of Polaris System, his everyday life would be completely disrupted.
Moreover, he was already exhausted from everything that was going on in his life at the moment.
Following the activation of the first level of Polaris System, a red dot on Donald’s laptop blinked incessantly. It was currently sending numerous messages to a small group of people all over the world.
“Supreme God has reactivated the System!” On the other side of the world, a beautiful woman jumped on her bed excitedly. As she jumped merrily, her bathrobe slipped off her shoulders, revealing her perfect figure.
“It has been five years! He’s finally back!” Meanwhile, on a battleship in the middle of the ocean, a soldier knelt down, facing the east.
“Lord Campbell is back! We have goals in our life now! We are no longer lost!” A handsome man gulped down a glass of alcohol in a bar with fervor in his eyes.
After activating the System, Donald quietly sat on his couch in the dark.
His aura seemed to transform in a second.
Originally, he was an ordinary and reserved man who worked hard to make a living. However, he had an imposing, domineering aura at the moment.
