Chapter 122
Everyone was dumbfounded by his actions.
Alexander stammered, “W-What is going on? Why did Dr. Thompson give him a bow?”
No one replied to him, as they were all staring at Harold incredulously.
Did the legendary Dr. Thompson just bow to the homeless man?
“Didn't you say you were the one who invited Dr. Thompson over?” Patrick spun on his heels to holler at Alexander.
“Dad, I went there that day, but I didn't even manage to see Dr. Thompson. He even destroyed my car. You were too busy, so I didn't have the chance to explain things to you. Yesterday, when Dr. Thompson showed up, I thought you found out that I failed to get him to come and ended up extending an invitation personally!” Alexander explained truthfully.
“What? I've been busy these few days. I didn't even have time to prepare the betrothal gift for your stepmother. Why would I extend an invitation personally? D*mn it!” Patrick cursed.
He nearly blew his top when he saw how aggrieved his son looked.
After overhearing their exchange, the crowd finally understood the whole picture.
Harold had somehow managed to get Samuel to come here, but Alexander and Patrick had thought it
was one of them who had extended the invitation.
That explained the painfully awkward scene when Samuel showed up here.
Everyone turned to look at Harold curiously.
They refused to believe that a beggar-like man could persuade Samuel to come here!
Patrick was especially dumbfounded by the turn of events.
This young man isn't even wearing proper clothes. Look at his old military uniform. How could he be this capable? Wait a minute! Military uniform? The mysterious young man at Paradise Hotel was clad in a military uniform too, right?
Suddenly, the scene from yesterday popped up in Patrick's mind.
Slowly, he moved to stand at Harold's side.
After observing Harold's side profile, Patrick blanched in horror.
The shock was so immense that he nearly dropped to the ground, weak-kneed.
It's the same old military uniform and the same side profile. He's the mysterious young man who showed up at Paradise Hotel yesterday!
Patrick finally understood why Harold was capable enough of summoning Samuel here. After all, even
the general manager of Paradise Hotel was afraid of Harold.
I can't believe I was bold enough to force his young and pretty sister to marry me! I must have a death wish!
Patrick nearly stumbled to his feet.
Meanwhile, Yvonne's eyes were wide as she stared at Samuel and her brother.
Flashing a smile, Harold patted Yvonne's head affectionately and said, “Yvonne, I'll explain everything after Dad wakes up.”
Turning to Samuel, he uttered, “Dr. Thompson, please take a look at my dad.” Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.
“Yes, Mr. Campbell!”
After Samuel headed into the room, Harold didn't follow him in so that he could treat Louis in peace. Instead, his icy gaze landed on Patrick.
As soon as Harold's arctic gaze fell on him, Patrick, who was already shaking in fear, dropped to the ground. His legs finally gave way.
Naturally, everyone was shocked by his reaction.
What is going on? Even though Harold managed to get Dr. Thompson here to treat his father, Patrick is still an influential figure in Norham.
