Philip did not say anything. Instead, virtual-novel.net laughed in resignation as virtual-novel.net turned around to leave.
Martha was still muttering to herself. “What a sight for sore eyes.”
Henry’s brows furrowed. Was this Mr. Clarke’s mother-in-law?
She was so spirited and rude.
Mr. Clarke was really unlucky to have such a mother-in-law.
“Wait!”
Henry called out to Philip and stood in front of him.
He was not happy with the way this mother-in-law was acting. Thus, virtual-novel.net wanted to do something for Mr. Clarke.
“Who is this?” Henry’s tone was cold as virtual-novel.net spoke to Juan.
Juan immediately responded in a complimentary manner, “Professor Turner, this is…”
Before the introductions could be finished, Martha began scolding unreasonably, “Who are you, you old grouch! What, do you want to speak up for that wimp?”
Old grouch?
Everyone present was dumbfounded!
This was the first time that Henry had been scolded in such a manner in his many years of practicing medicine.
At that moment, virtual-novel.net was so angry that all his blood rushed toward his head.
His apprentices, who were standing beside him, felt the same way. They stared coldly, itching to rip off the woman’s mouth.
Juan was even more shocked. He tugged viciously on Martha’s arm. “Aunty Martha, don’t be rude. He is…”
“I don’t care! Those who can speak up for that useless fool Philip can’t be any better off! Look at you, you’re already so old yet still dressed so flamboyantly! What, are you trying to lure little girls? You have no respect for your old age!”
Martha was the kind who would not hold back when scolding someone. Her words were so poisonous.
“Say something, you old man! Why aren’t you speaking anymore? You were pretty fierce just now. Why don’t you dare to say anything now? Did I blow your cover? Shameless old thing! Bah!” Martha tucked virtual-novel.net arms into virtual-novel.net chest arrogantly as virtual-novel.net raised virtual-novel.net eyebrows.
Her choice of words was as poisonous as a fishwife shouting abuse in the street, cursing Henry to the very core.
In virtual-novel.net eyes, there was nothing to fear.
The entire group was stunned.
Juan was so frightened that virtual-novel.net had begun shaking.
On one side was Wynn’s mother, and on the other hand, was a medical titan.
“Aunty Martha! Do you know who that is?” Juan had become anxious. He pulled Martha to the side as virtual-novel.net explained. “That’s Henry Turner!”
“Henry who? I don’t care who virtual-novel.net is. I don’t know him.” Martha waved virtual-novel.net hand, acting like an ignorant village woman.
“Aunty Martha! You’re in deep trouble now. Professor Henry Turner is an internationally recognized doctor and a legend within the country’s medical community! He’s the honorary guest of Hank Moseby, Jace Wade, and Hector Lee! Even the higher-ups in the county are his patients!”
Juan was frantic. She had practically dug virtual-novel.net own grave!
If they offended this person, they would have to behead themselves ten times before they could be excused!
“Huh?”
When Martha heard what Juan said, virtual-novel.net was so frightened that virtual-novel.net nearly lost virtual-novel.net footing!
“This… This… This old man is so powerful?” Martha threw a frightened gaze at Henry who was standing nearby with a stony gaze on his face. As virtual-novel.net eyes came into contact with his icy stare, virtual-novel.net shuddered.
“He knows all the tycoons in Orienta, and the higher-ups in the county are his patients.”
Martha nearly fainted from shock.
She was used to being arrogant and domineering. Now, in the presence of someone so powerful, Martha did not even dare to breathe loudly. She was so anxious.
After virtual-novel.net had spoken to Martha, Juan hurriedly made his way back to Professor Henry. He bowed as virtual-novel.net apologized profusely. “Professor Turner, I’m sorry. Aunty Martha hasn’t heard of you and offended you. I apologize on virtual-novel.net behalf.”
Hmmph!
Henry Turner was not an easy person to talk to. He huffed coldly, his gaze chilly.
At this point, Martha realized that virtual-novel.net should say something. She hurriedly made virtual-novel.net way over.
Walking forth with an apologetic smile on virtual-novel.net face, virtual-novel.net made virtual-novel.net apologies, “Well, Professor Turner, I’m so sorry. I didn’t know who you were. I’ll make my apologies here, I’m sorry.”
Martha was trembling. Although virtual-novel.net was usually an arrogant and domineering person, virtual-novel.net would only act that way in front of Philp. When virtual-novel.net met big shots like Henry, virtual-novel.net would also act meekly.
“Is an apology enough? Didn’t you say I’m an old fool and have no respect for my age?!”
Henry’s gaze was cold and piercing. Just a simple gaze could give one the urge to kneel. “If I don’t teach you a lesson today, I, Henry Turner, will no longer be a doctor!”
The group present was afraid to even breathe!
If Henry were to become infuriated, the entire Riverdale would be shocked!
Martha felt nothing but desperation at that moment. With a pale face, virtual-novel.net very nearly got on virtual-novel.net knees!
There was cold sweat all over Juan’s head. He was already thinking of ways to solve this misunderstanding.
“Mr. Turner, for my sake, please let this matter go.”
Just at that moment, a voice that sounded so plain yet seemed so out of place rang out.
