The First Heir

Chapter 92

What was Philip doing here? Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.

Not only that, he was standing beside Professor Henry Turner.

What was going on?

Juan was confused. Was it possible that Philip and Juan knew each other?

That was impossible! How would a reputable medical guru like Professor Turner know a wimp like Philip?

Professor Henry Turner was startled. He did not know Juan Parker, but he did know his father.

To be honest, they did not even really know each other. They simply had a few connections in common.

It was because he liked jade and had bought quite a few jade pieces to display in his house.

Once, when he was at Golden City, Henry received a beautiful piece of jade from Robert. It was an extremely rare piece made from green dragon jade, thus Henry remembered this favor.

Just a few days ago, Robert had contacted him personally. He said something about his son’s friend’s daughter suffering from congenital heart disease and begged him to take a look at her condition.

Did they think that any person could just persuade Henry Turner to do something?

Only after numerous pleas and taking into consideration that beautiful piece of jade did Henry agree to stop by and take a look.

“Do you know each other?” Henry asked as he stared at Juan.

That was because he could tell that Juan’s attitude toward Mr. Clarke was not the greatest. Could it be that they have a grudge between themselves?

As a result, Henry’s expression on his face gradually grew cooler as his brows knitted together.

If that was the case, then he would not help Juan in what he had asked for.

Juan snorted in response as he sneered. “Of course we know each other, Professor Turner. To be honest, it’s insulting for you to stand next to someone like that. Why don’t we go over there to talk? I’ll host a banquet in honor of you at Arc de Triumph tonight.”

Juan knew in his heart that someone like Philip would not know Professor Turner.

At most, he was just passing by.

Was it possible that the doctor he found was Henry Turner?

Did he have that much honor for that?

However, Henry’s expression immediately soured as he scoffed inwardly.

Insulting?

It was his good fortune to be able to stand next to Mr. Clarke!

Juan Parker was such a narrow-minded person!

“No, thank you! I don’t think Mr. Parker is qualified to dine with me yet.” Henry had a chilly expression on his face as he gazed sharply at Juan.

It was just a simple expression, yet it scared Juan to the core.

‘You are not qualified’, these four words sounded especially harsh to Juan’s ears.

However, he did not dare to show his resentment. Instead, he asked in a panic, “Professor Turner, did I do something wrong? Please tell me, I promise I’ll change!”

Juan was panicking. If he had offended Professor Turner due to a small mistake on his part, not only would Wynn’s daughter not be able to receive treatment, but his family’s business would more or less be affected as well.

He really could not understand. It was only his first time meeting Professor Turner.

They had not exchanged more than five sentences.

How did he get into this medical guru’s bad books?

In a short while, Juan’s forehead was coated with cold sweat.

“Because you don’t know how to respect people!” Henry reprimanded. As he turned his head to reveal Philip’s identity, he saw the latter shake his head.

Henry was startled but understood immediately. He turned back to Juan and said, “Even if this… gentleman is ordinary, you shouldn’t insult him in that manner. People should know how to respect each other.”

His tone was not loud, but it was firm.

Juan’s entire body shuddered as he listened. There was something just so compelling about Henry’s aura!

This was the kind of person who often dealt with the higher-ups. You could not offend them easily.

“Yes, yes, Professor Turner. You are right,” Juan said as he nodded his head hurriedly. At the same time, he eyed Philip through the corner of his eyes. He simply hated him right now!

That loser was to blame. He was standing in the way of everything!

If it were not for him, would he be reprimanded by Professor Turner?

He must find a chance to humiliate him.

“Why are you still standing there? Aren’t you going to apologize to this gentleman?” Henry said cooly.

Apologize?

Juan looked at Philip, a hint of gloom appearing in the corner of his eyes.

Juan was very reluctant to apologize to this loser.

However, he had no choice. If he offended Henry, there would not be anything good in store for him.

After thinking it through, Juan opened his mouth to say cooly, “I’m sorry, Philip. I hope you don’t take to heart what I just said.”

Philip did not want to pick a fight. He nodded his head as he turned and prepared to leave.

However, something unexpected happened!

Martha came over hurriedly.

“Juan, why did you call me to come over so early in the morning?” When Martha looked at Juan, she was full of smiles. Her eyes were filled with fondness as if she was looking at her son-in-law.

However, when her gaze fell on Philip, she looked as if she had been pricked all over her body. She cried out in disgust, “Why are you here? Didn’t I tell you not to come anymore? Go, get out of this place!”

Martha got angry whenever she saw Philip.

This loser was so annoying no matter where he stood.
