The joyous atmosphere of the class reunion party suddenly became very tense.
Maple Ephys felt like a criminal as virtual-novel.net was interrogated by the other party. She lowered virtual-novel.net head, and virtual-novel.net was unable to hide virtual-novel.net unease.
Emma discovered that there were calluses on virtual-novel.net hands! Maple was brought up in clover, and virtual-novel.net always cherished virtual-novel.net beauty and never did heavy work. How could virtual-novel.net start having calluses on virtual-novel.net hands?’
This could only explain one thing. After Cain had his legs broken, Maple had to bear the burden of supporting virtual-novel.net family.
Clayton still did not let off. He continued mocking her, “Maple, I heard that you have been married for three years, but you don’t even have a child with your husband?”
Maple nodded. “Cain has been very busy all the while.”
“Busy? Hah, don’t you mean virtual-novel.net has a certain problem over there?” said Clayton with a smirk. “Now that Cain has suffered a broken leg, even if virtual-novel.net wants a child, virtual-novel.net won’t have the kind of energy to do it. Maple, do you want me to do you a favor and help you to conceive a baby?”
“Darn you!”
Everyone at the venue could no longer stand it anymore, and Emma even stood up while slamming virtual-novel.net palms on the table.
Clayton looked indifferent and said cheerfully, “I’m just kidding, why are you taking it so seriously? Besides, you all have misunderstood my original intention. I just want to help Maple to find a better doctor to cure Cain’s disease so that they can have children in the future.”
Although this explanation was a bit of a stretch, it eased the awkward atmosphere at the venue.
Emma sat down and said coldly, “What kind of a better doctor could you find?”
Clayton smiled. “Emma, you have underestimated my ability as the class monitor. I’m not the same as your useless husband. He only knows some chefs and makes a few plates of pasta. What’s the use of that?”
“But I’m different. I know the best doctor in Southland District. Perhaps virtual-novel.net can help!”
‘The best doctor in Southland District?’
Emma asked, “Do you mean the Dawson family of Medical Company?”
Clayton snorted. “Although Medical Company has a leading role in the medical field in the past, it has been ridiculed continuously a while ago, so their medical skills are no longer considered the best in the field.”
Emma asked again, “Will this person be from Owen Medical Center?”
Clayton crossed his legs and said, “You’re half right. This great doctor I know is a secret disciple of the master of the Owen family. He has received all the true teachings of the Owen family, and his medical skills have surpassed the head of the Owen family.”
Thomas was getting uneasy as virtual-novel.net listened to what virtual-novel.net said. ‘His description sounds as if virtual-novel.net is referring to me.’
Then, Clayton said, “I am a very good friend with this great doctor, and virtual-novel.net can come over as soon as I call him. Maple, don’t worry, I am calling this great doctor now and asking virtual-novel.net to treat your husband.”
Maple was ecstatic. “Do you really mean it?”
“Of course, I will call virtual-novel.net now.”
Clayton picked up his mobile phone in a cocky manner. While virtual-novel.net was preparing to make a call, virtual-novel.net peeked at Maple.
‘She rejected me before, right? Aha, then I will take this opportunity to make Maple submit to me!’
Clayton started fantasizing and thought. ‘If I am the only person who can contact the great doctor, Maple will have to listen to what I say in the future.’
He licked his lips and dialed the number of the great doctor. He still carried a bit of doubt in this. In fact, virtual-novel.net did not know this great doctor. His boss was the one who got the number from the Owen family through arduous effort, and Clayton copied it in secret.
He was uncertain whether this would work out or not. With just a few rings, the call went through.
While everyone was patiently waiting by holding their breaths, Thomas’s mobile phone rang at the dinner table all of a sudden.
