Daddy the Miracle Medic (Lachlan and Miranda) novel Chapter 138

Chapter 138 He Can't Listen

Lachlan couldn't possibly have not seen it! The dragon-shaped jade pendant in the painting was the family heirloom passed down to him by his grandfather and father!

It was because of this jade pendant that he changed his destiny and now possessed various abilities.

Although the jade pendant had long lost its luster, Lachlan still treasured it and kept it locked in a safe in his villa. Unexpectedly, someone was looking for the whereabouts of this jade pendant today?

And coincidentally, their last name was also Willis!! However, Lachlan was wary of Summer so he cannot tell her the truth.

"Oh, that's too bad!" Summer shook her head regretfully.

"Miss Willis, you really know how to ask a good question. We don't know anything; how could he?" Sarah sneered at Lachlan again even though Liam and Sam seemed polite towards him as well but in her eyes, Lachlan was still a freeloader.

She didn't want Frand to lose face nor did she want Miranda's husband to feel too proud so she tried her best to belittle Lachlan.

"Yeah, I didn't know either." Lachlan shrugged lazily without bothering with Sarah.

At this moment, Summer stood up with a bottle of liquor in hand and began pouring drinks for everyone on the table.

Lachlan narrowed his eyes!

He noticed that when this woman poured drinks for everyone else on the table, her little finger would seemingly inadvertently tap on the edge of each glass several times.

This made an icy chill flash through deep within Lachlan's eyes.

"This jade pendant relates to my missing relatives so I ask everyone here who has some connections or influence in Edoland can help me pay attention! My relatives should be somewhere around Edoland."

After adding more wine, Summer spoke leisurely and then finished her drink in one go.

Hearing this, the second-generation individuals all readily agreed, raising their glasses and preparing to take a sip.

Even Miranda smiled, though she didn't say anything, she also gestured to take a drink!

"Wait!"

However, at that moment, Lachlan suddenly spoke up, halting everyone in their tracks. He even directly grabbed Miranda's wrist, preventing her from drinking.

"What's going on?" Miranda blinked, her expression puzzled.

The others also looked at Lachlan with confusion in their eyes.

"Don't drink the wine Miss Willis poured. It's better not to!" Lachlan said, and he proceeded to spill the wine from his glass onto the ground and turned his glass upside down.

"Lachlan, what do you mean? You're not giving her face? She kindly poured us all a drink, why won't you let us drink it? And yet you pour your own?"

"I know I'm from out of town and new to Edoland, but you can't bully people like this," Summer said with a hint of grievance in her voice. Tears were welling up in her eyes.

"That's right! What do you mean? A girl drank all the wine! You won't even take a sip? Are you still a man or not? If you won't drink it we will!" Darwin was also angry and questioned Lachlan without listening to his advice before drinking the whole cup of wine.

"Bullying girls doesn't make him a man!" Sarah added with disdain as she also drank her cup of wine.
