The Great Medical Saint -
Chapter 29
Rowan was stunned. He wanted to stand up, but felt that it was inappropriate. He looked at Matthew hopefully, wishing for a way out of this situation. Matthew said sternly, "If it weren't for your father, I wouldn't even bother with you even if you knelt before me."
Rowan stood up embarrassedly and said, "Thank you. I didn't recognize how great you are. I won't make the same mistake again."
Seeing the situation resolved, Hugo invited Matthew into the manor once again.
In the living room, Rowan dismissed the household staff. He personally served tea and attended to them on the side while Hugo and Matthew chatted.
The two chatted for a few words and got to the main point.
Hugo said, "Dr. Grant, Rowan mentioned you had a matter to discuss at the gate. I'm not sure what it is, but I assure you that the Lloyd family will assist you in any way we can."
Matthew smiled and said, "It's not that extreme. My girlfriend, Rachel, is currently the president of Wealthwave Group, but some of her family members are not convinced that she is the right person for the job. I just need you to support her and make a statement."
Hugo immediately stood up. "I haven't made an appearance in the business world for a long time. Let's go right now. I'll personally visit the Carters."
With the Lloyd family's status, just a word from Hugo would be the greatest support for Rachel.
His personal visit would be a tremendous honor for the Carters.
Matthew shook Hugo's hands. "Thank you for your support, but it's not urgent. Rachel's mother's birthday is the day after tomorrow. Let's go then."
Hugo nodded. "All right, the day after tomorrow it is. I'll prepare a gift. Dr. Grant, the Carter family is incredibly fortunate to have you as the future son-in-law." Matthew smiled and chatted a little more before leaving.
Hugo stood up and said, "Let Rowan drop you back. He doesn't have much to do these days. You might need a car in Khoitwood. Let him be your driver." Matthew was about to refuse, but Rowan quickly offered. "Dr. Grant, it's an honor to have you in Khoitwood. I must do my best to be a good host." Compared to when they met for the first time, Rowan's attitude now was completely different. He was filled with enthusiasm.
Matthew nodded. "All right, I do need a car. First, take me to the White family."
Hugo understood Matthew's goal. "The White family is a little difficult to deal with. They're a military family, so they can be quite arrogant." Matthew paused at the door. "Military family?" He knew nothing about the White family and wanted to learn more.
Hugo handed him a business card. "This is my card. Try using it. Though I'm not sure it will work."
Matthew took the card, which was made of emerald and had the name "Lloyd" engraved on it. He casually put it in his pocket. "I'll give it a try."
Rowan was shocked. The emerald business card was one of only five, representing not just the Lloyd family but also their commitment. It was something beyond monetary value.
It seemed Hugo was fully committed to helping Matthew.
Soon, a car departed from Lloyd Residence. Rowan drove slowly and steadily.
Sitting in the back, Matthew called Rachel. "Hello, have you met Zayden?"
At White Residence, Rachel was pacing in front of the gate. "No, I'm waiting for him."
She wasn't the only one; Malcolm and Quinn were waiting as well. The guards had informed them that Zayden was having dinner with guests and wouldn't be free in a short while. Matthew fiddled with the emerald business card and said, "Wait there. I'm on my way. I have a way to see him."
Hearing Matthew's claim, Rachel frowned.
She had already been humiliated once at Lloyd Residence when he said he could get the head to come out, only for Rowan to come out and kick them out.
She didn't want him to get involved again. "Don't come over. Please, don't come. Just go home and wait for my news."
Then, she hung up immediately.
Matthew put his phone away and told Rowan, "Quick! Head to White Residence!"
