Chapter 558 A Humble Man
Chandler paused for a moment, his expression complex. He then asked, “Do you know why I’ve been emphasizing the topic of calligraphy and painting, and also mentioning Mr. Emerentius?”
This was a detail that no one had really noticed. Everyone had assumed that the topics Chandler discussed came naturally.
It was only after his revelation that they realized the conversation topics had been deliberately guided by Chandler. His guidance was so subtle and natural that it left no trace, making it unnoticeable.
How impressive! That’s the state governor for you!
Chandler let out a sigh and said, “Actually, Emrys is none other than Mr. Emerentius.”
“What?”
Everyone was bewildered,
“Mr. York, isn’t he the renowned doctor of Jadeborough? How did he suddenly become-”
The man’s voice abruptly halted, his face reflecting extreme disbelief. Yet, deep down, he knew the answer. Mr. York wouldn’t have favored him so much if he wasn’t someone outstanding.
After everyone learned that the renowned doctor of Jadeborough and Emerentius were the same person, they were filled with astonishment.
No wonder when Emrys previously commented that Mr. Emerentius‘ skills were just average. Clearly, he is just being modest. However, to those who heard those words, it seemed like a disrespectful remark.
The man who had previously sat across from Emrys felt his face burning with embarrassment, as he couldn’t feel any more awkward.
Chandler’s gaze flickered, then he continued. “What truly astounds me is not Emrys‘ dual identity but rather his mindset of being detached from the world.”
One usually expected those who rose to fame at a young age to become arrogant, especially for someone like Emrys.
To carry two impressive identities was reason enough for Emrys to behave in a somewhat

haughty manner.
However, Emrys remained humble, regardless of his status.
It seemed as though his titles didn’t matter to him, which is why he never thought to show
off.
Even though Chandler skillfully steered the conversation toward the topic so that Emrys could reveal his identity as Emerentius and regain his glory, Emrys sidestepped the opportunity.
He wasn’t being melodramatic but had a genuine feeling that there was nothing worth showing off.
Chandler also perceived it, hence he did not continue to put Emrys in a difficult position.
He even felt that if it wasn’t necessary to treat his daughter, Minerva, on the spot, Emrys would have been reluctant to reveal his identity as the renowned doctor of Jadeborough.
Such an attitude was unusually steady, somewhat different from the ordinary.
This was the point that Chandler found most unbelievable.
In addition, Emrys‘ remark about Empyrean Lord was shocking and unconventional, further confirming his extraordinary nature.
Could it be that he has other identities that carry more weight, which is why he feels that being known as the renowned doctor of Jadeborough and Mr. Emerentius are not matters worth boasting
about?
Chandler thought he had a sufficient understanding of Emrys, but after their conversation today, he found himself increasingly unable to read the latter.
Emrys had no idea what Chandler and his colleagues were thinking, nor did he care.
He had already arrived at Sierra’s filming location.
A short while ago, Cordelia said that she wanted to give Sierra a huge surprise and forcefully took her away. She brought her to Pollerton Ocean to witness a majestic yet gruesome battle.
