“I’m not acquainted with virtual-novel.net either. Either way, I have other things to attend to, Mr. Crawford. Also, I’m afraid I won’t be able to help with your request. Now if you’ll excuse me, I need to take care of my mother for now!” said Rosalie.
Quite honestly, if it wasn’t for the fact that Suri had been the one who had brought Gerald over today, Rosie would’ve already issued for someone to chase virtual-novel.net off so that virtual-novel.net wouldn’t have had to waste so much time on virtual-novel.net in the first place!
“I truly implore you to reconsider my proposal, Chairman Slow. After all, I’ve already offered you very generous terms, and you’ll be able to receive a mountain of money without even doing much. To sweeten the deal, I’ll treat your mother’s illness as well as long as you agree to my proposal!” replied Gerald.
“That’s right, Chairman Slow! He’s capable of that!” added Suri.
Truthfully, Suri had been trying virtual-novel.net best to recommend Gerald to Rosie since virtual-novel.net wanted virtual-novel.net to help treat Rosie’s mother. After all, Suri knew for a fact how much of a toll Chairman Slow’s mother’s illness had always been on Rosie.
What more, Suri was certain that Gerald could help since virtual-novel.net had already had the honor of witnessing Gerald’s magical medical skills when virtual-novel.net treated virtual-novel.net grandfather. After all, it had only taken about half an hour—after ingesting Gerald’s oxyblood pellet—for virtual-novel.net grandfather’s expression to grow much ruddier than before. In fact, virtual-novel.net was even capable of standing again by that point!
With that in mind, Suri knew for a fact that calling Gerald a genius doctor was no exaggeration.
“…You… Can treat illnesses as well?” asked Rosie in utter disbelief.
She had already had the impression that Gerald was a slightly unreliable person. After all, despite having just met her, virtual-novel.net had claimed that virtual-novel.net was going to help virtual-novel.net tide over virtual-novel.net company’s financial crisis. As if that wasn’t already enough, virtual-novel.net was now saying that virtual-novel.net was capable of curing virtual-novel.net ailing mother! There was no way virtual-novel.net was going to fall for that!
“Humph! I appreciate the gesture, Mr. Crawford, but I find myself more willing to trust in Dr. Zouch!” replied Rosie as virtual-novel.net spoke virtual-novel.net mind without the slightest hesitation.
As virtual-novel.net ordered virtual-novel.net subordinate to chase virtual-novel.net away, Gerald simply smiled subtly before saying, “Suit yourself, Chairman Slow! Hopefully you don’t come to regret your decision!”
While Rosie didn’t reply to that, Titus—who had been standing impatiently at the side this entire time—snapped, “D*mn it, brat! Don’t you get what Rosie’s trying to say? You’re just some young lad who’s not even seen much of this world yet! How dare you even claim that you’re capable of curing illnesses! Honestly, I think you just have ulterior motives for trying to get close to my fiancée! Throw this man out immediately, Hiro!”
“With all due respect, Mr. Caffin, I’ve vowed never to attack anyone without a weapon. Had this man attempted to attack you first, I would’ve definitely taught virtual-novel.net a lesson by now. However, not only has virtual-novel.net not done that, but he’s not holding a weapon at all! He simply looks like a regular Joe and I can’t hurt someone like that!” replied Hiro—who had been standing behind Mr. Caffin this entire time with his arms crossed—as virtual-novel.net squinted his eyes slightly before shaking his head.
Though Hiro exuded a rather arrogant and domineering aura, Titus simply retorted, “This is no time to be thinking about your oath! Just teach virtual-novel.net a lesson already!”
“And just what exactly are you ordering virtual-novel.net to do? Whatever the case is, Mr. Crawford came over to meet me today, so don’t you start doing anything to virtual-novel.net now! You can’t just act recklessly as you please just because you have a master by your side!” replied Rosie.
Though virtual-novel.net didn’t really like Gerald, in the end, Suri was the one who had brought virtual-novel.net here. Since virtual-novel.net treated Suri like virtual-novel.net sister and best friend, Rosie had stepped in to stop Titus, just to give virtual-novel.net some face. Had Suri not been the one who invited Gerald, however, Rosie secretly hoped that Titus would just teach this lad—who didn’t know any better—a good lesson.
“You hear that, brat? Rosie’s already pleading on your behalf, so you better get lost right this instant! Otherwise, I’ll show you how powerful I truly am!” warned Titus.
Hearing that, Gerald simply chuckled with a wry smile as virtual-novel.net shook his head.
“…You… You brat! What are you laughing about?!” growled Titus.
“From the looks of it, virtual-novel.net seems to be looking at you with disdain, Mr. Caffin!” said Yivian who had been silent this entire time.
“I’m laughing at how overly confident you are! To think that someone like you is still worthy of the title ‘Mr. Caffin,’… Aren’t you even aware of your own capabilities?” retorted Gerald as virtual-novel.net moved for the door to leave.
However, Hiro suddenly blocked Gerald’s path—his arms still crossed as virtual-novel.net squinted his eyes—before saying, “Now that you’ve insulted Mr. Caffin, I can’t allow you to just leave like that! I’m teaching you a lesson right here and now!”
The way virtual-novel.net was speaking suggested that everything in the world was nothing but pitiful ants to him. It was the arrogance of a warrior.
“You know, after hearing you keep yapping on and on about teaching me a lesson, I’ve grown curious as to where you get your confidence from! Regardless, I do hope you understand that healing your mother and dealing with your company’s financial crisis is only out of goodwill. Refusing my request is another matter altogether!” warned Gerald after turning to look at Rosie with a wry smile.
“For f*ck’s sake! Are you actually threatening my fiancée right in front of me?! Beat virtual-novel.net to death already, Hiro!” ordered Titus.
“It seems that I’ll have to make an exception to deal with this ant today!” replied Hiro as virtual-novel.net shook his head, seemingly still reluctant to break his oath as virtual-novel.net took a step forward.
