Mr. Carrillo had complicated emotions inside. He didn't know what to say for a while.
Sylvia specialized in surgical treatment but she also dabbled in traditional medicine, so surely she was qualified to give the lecture.
Mr. Carrillo looked at her with mixed feelings of passion and awe in his eyes.
Sylvia said to him confusedly, "Mr. Carrillo, I will give the lecture, but why are you looking at me this way?"
"Well, nothing." He hadn't expected her to say yes to his request so easily.
He paused for a second and continued, "Thank you, Dr. Sylvia. Let me see, it's Monday today. How about Friday afternoon? Will that work for you?"
"Sure." Sylvia nodded. "I will be there on time."
"You will have the full support of my assistant about the specifics of the lecture," added Mr. Carrillo.
"OK." Sylvia smiled. "It's my honor to be able to help the students."
Mr. Carrillo got up delightedly and checked the time. "Dr. Sylvia, how about going to Royal Galaxy Restaurant for dinner tonight? It's on my treat."
"With your meager budget? Just forget it," Franklin, who was making coffee, said with disdain.
Then he turned to Sylvia with a loving and soft look in his eyes. "Tonight is my treat. Just order anything you like."
Sylvia didn't bother to respond to this mercurial man.
'What a maniacal psychopath!'
Outside the Royal Galaxy Restaurant, Sylvia was speaking on her phone when she gestured for Franklin to come in with Mr. Carrillo and the people first.
Franklin raised his eyebrow and asked, "Who are you speaking to?"
"None of your business." Sylvia glared at him. "Just go in there."
Lifting the corner of his mouth, Franklin ran his fingers through her hair before he took the old men to the lobby of the restaurant.
Sylvia ended the call after exchanging a few words with Logan.
She saw a black Mercedes-Benz stop outside the restaurant as she looked up.
After putting her phone into her purse, Sylvia was about to enter the restaurant.
But then she heard a familiar voice. "Sylvia Andrews. Yes, you are!"
Tammy Andrews?
Sylvia turned around and saw Tammy, in a light-yellow dress and three-inch heels and with heavy makeup, getting out of the Mercedes.
Swaying her body, Tammy walked toward Sylvia.
"You are having dinner here at Royal Galaxy?" Tammy curled her lips. "It's the most expensive restaurant in Larro. Just one meal will cost half of your monthly salary!"
"What does that have anything to do with you?" Sylvia said impassively. It seemed like Tammy's wrist had been cured already. So she started to make trouble again.
"I'm just worried the cost of the meal will hurt your wallet." Tammy sneered, covering her mouth with her hand. "Are you dumped by Franklin? And that's why you are standing here alone outside the restaurant. Well, what a pity!"
The woman who imagined quite a lot was annoying.
Sylvia just ignored her, turned around, and walked into the restaurant.
