"Oh?"He had drawn everyone's attention."Mr. Ford, the chairman of Everising Chamber of Commerce, will be hosting a banquet tonight to welcome a distinguished guest.""We didn't hear about that. Who is the guest who could make Mr. Ford greet him personally?""He's definitely a big shot. Only families that have joined the chamber are invited.""The Millers have applied to join the chamber, right? This is their chance," Lewis said to Lydia and smiled."What do you mean?" Lydia responded immediately, showing great interest.Even though the Millers applied and were on the waiting list, their chances were slim."I can bring one person to the banquet tonight. I'll introduce you to the chamber members if you come with me. Sounds good?""Well, if that's the case, I'll need to prepare for it." Lydia agreed instantly."No need to prepare. The banquet won't happen." Henry shook his head upon hearing that.Everyone looked at Henry.Lydia was stunned at first, then she was furious. "Do
The crowd was shocked.Lydia was also dumbfounded. Could the bumpkin ruffian be the big shot?Meanwhile, Lewis received a message and exclaimed, "The Fords' granddaughter is severely ill!""What? This is a big deal.""Yes, she has always been the apple of Mr. Ford's eyes. He has protected her so well that only relatives have seen her in person.""I heard she's gorgeous, just like an angel.""Then it makes sense." Lewis suddenly understood the situation."Mr. Ford must have canceled the banquet because of his granddaughter's illness.""Right! That's right! Mr. Ford loves his granddaughter so much, it must be why!""I told you! How could this man influence Mr. Ford?""That's right. It's just a coincidence. He almost fooled us.""He has such a thick skin."At the same time, Henry received a distress call from Jeffery Ford.He requested the address and was prepared to leave.Lydia did not think Henry was a big deal, and what Lewis said made more sense.She glared at him beca
"Yes."Henry nodded and took out a box before preparing for the treatment."Wait, what are you doing?!" Benjamin shouted."I'm trying to save her!""Who's allowing you to do so? I've already invited the renowned Doctor Ferguson from the capital. He'll be here soon. Get out of here."Benjamin muttered discreetly as he scolded Henry. "Father is out of his mind. This kid can't be the divine doctor. He is a liar."Vanessa agreed with her son by remaining silent.Henry frowned.At the same time, two people showed up at the doorstep. One of them was an old man with a white beard. He was carrying a medicine box."Doctor Ferguson, you're finally here. Please take a look at my sister now." Benjamin approached the old man with joy."Okay!" Doctor Ferguson looked proud as he nodded."What are you still doing there? Get out of the way. You can't bear the responsibility if my sister's treatment is delayed." Benjamin scolded Henry.Henry shook his head and walked to the side.He would h
"Fuck! You're the doctor! What do you mean you don't know?!" Benjamin roared.He thought he had made a significant contribution; he did not expect that to happen.His father would kill him if anything happened to Chansey.Meanwhile, Chansey had stopped trembling. She looked like she had died.Benjamin did not look good.Henry was right; he might have made a big mistake.Jeffery had finally rushed back.When he arrived and saw Henry, he asked anxiously, "Mast—Mr. Truman, how is Chansey?""Ask him!" Henry shook his head and looked at Benjamin.Panicked, Jeffery looked at the rest. He could guess what had happened."Benjamin, what's going on?"Benjamin was scared by his father's scolding.Doctor Ferguson's face paled, and he said, "Mr. Ford, I'm sorry. Unfortunately, I can't do anything. Your daughter has passed away.""What?!"Jeffery's face paled, and he was about to fall.Vanessa cried out loudly as she regretted her decision.Her daughter might not have died if she had
It seemed like a piece of cake for Henry. However, Chansey's cold was extraordinary, and it was quite an effort for him to help her.The group was shocked, and even Jeffery Ford was amazed."Thank you, Mr. Truman!" Jeffery thanked Henry.After all, he knew well about his daughter's condition. Not many doctors could help her, but the Master of Golden Liberty had done so almost effortlessly."Mr. Truman, your medical skills are truly amazing.""Please forgive me. How could I miss out on recognizing such greatness even though you're right before my eyes."Doctor Ferguson was shocked. Then, he apologized excitedly."No worries," Henry said politely as he saw the talent in him."May I be your apprentice so I can learn medicine from you?"Doctor Ferguson bowed as he made his request eagerly. He seemed ready to kneel.Benjamin was dumbfounded.Doctor Ferguson was a leading figure in medicine with an excellent reputation and status.Yet, he spoke so politely with a young man.Howe
After a satisfying dinner, Jeffery gave Henry a present and personally escorted him to the Paradise One Villa at the mountainside.Doctor Ferguson wished he could leave with Henry."This place is so beautiful. When can I have one of these?" At the same time, Sarah was walking in the Paradise Valley, envious."These are nothing compared to the significant villas in Paradise One at the mountainside. Even the rich can't own one," Lewis said."Even your family?""Yup," Lewis said, shaking his head."Oh, my god! I want to meet such a tycoon who can afford it.""Stop dreaming. You'll never get to meet one of them in your life.""That's true!" Sarah nodded. Then, she said, surprised, "Hey, isn't that Mr. Ford's car?""Yes, Mr. Ford lives here.""But I think I saw Henry in the car.""That bumpkin?""Stop joking. I'll do anything if a bumpkin like him could sit in Mr. Ford's car." Lewis shook his head immediately."I must have seen it wrongly." Sarah agreed.Those villas were in
"You are blushing. Your grandfather wants us to spend the night together?" Henry guessed based on what John said over the phone."Something like that." Lydia felt a little awkward.Henry shook his head and said, "No, I will not agree. Are you only worth 15,000 dollars?""What are you talking about?" Lydia was embarrassed and annoyed."I won't let you do anything even if you agree. But I'll pay you if you refuse," she said fiercely."Alright." Henry agreed."Deal?""Yes, but 15,000 dollars is not enough. I want 150,000 dollars."Lydia cursed silently, thinking Henry was shameless, but she still agreed."Deal."She handed Henry a check for 150,000 dollars.They entered the mansion and found Lydia's parents in the living room.Without waiting for Henry to approach, Jennifer said, "Stop thinking about your fantasies, Henry Truman."The Millers are far out of reach for a bumpkin like you."You don't deserve my daughter."Lydia agreed with her mother, but her brows were furrow
However, Henry said, "Grandpa Miller, I appreciate your kindness, but I don't want to work in the company for the time being.""What do you want to do then? Laze around at home?" Jennifer mocked him."No, it's not that. Money is not a problem for me now," Henry said calmly.'How can money not be a problem for you? You won't need to stay in our house if you have money. And where would a bumpkin like you get the money?'However, William stopped his wife from forcing Henry to work at the company just to humiliate him.It could ruin their daughter's reputation.Jennifer finally realized that and stopped talking.Lydia immediately felt disdainful as she thought of that 150,000 dollars.He must have believed he could live carefree with that money.John turned around and asked, "Lydia, any progress on joining the Everising Chamber of Commerce?""We've made it to the last ten, but only three slots are available. Fortunately, Lewis is willing to help.""Oh, the Brandons are quite pow
