Daddy the Miracle Medic (Lachlan and Miranda) novel Chapter 78

Chapter 78 Want to reconcile? Drink it

Lachlan didn't think too highly of the two people in front of him. Miranda was sizing them up and asked, "Miss Ellis, what brings you here?"

Both were from Edoland. Although Miranda wasn't friends with Betty, she recognized her as the heiress to Ellis' Jewelry.

"Ms. Lowe, is there something we can help you with?" Betty smiled.

"Well... we were hoping to invite Mr. Willis out for dinner. Would that be possible?" Orion asked in a hoarse voice.

Lachlan's expression turned strange at the invitation. "Invite me out for dinner?"

"Yes! We're sincere about it and hope you can accept," Betty explained.

Twenty minutes later, they arrived at a unique cuisine restaurant.

Orion poured Lachlan a glass of wine and said, "Mr. Willis, I'm so glad to see that you're safe!"

Lachlan raised an eyebrow at his words. "What do you mean? Are you threatening me indirectly?"

"No! No! That's not what I meant." Orion shook his head repeatedly before continuing with a bitter smile on his face. "Mr. Willis, did Tiger lead you there earlier? Did Zak send troops to help?"

Lachlan had no idea what was going on but nodded anyway. "Yes... so what about it?"

Orion smiled and said, "To be honest you, I was the one who passed on the information about you being trapped in Tiger's headquarters to Zak. So, you see... I've actually helped you, haven't I?"

As he finished speaking, Nora shook her little head and blinked her big eyes, saying, "Daddy, is this uncle trying to ask you for a favor?"

Despite her young age, Nora was very clever and had picked up on Orion's subtle hints.

"Mr. Moore, if you have something to say, just say it," Lachlan said.

"Okay..." Orion laughed awkwardly. "Mr. Willis, I heard that your medical skills are superb. I was burned by alcohol before and the doctor said there would be some permanent damage. Do you think you can treat me?"

He had attended the lunch party today specifically for this purpose.

As it turned out, Lachlan was not only a distinguished guest but also a skilled doctor. However, he hadn't spoken much during lunch and left early.

"Well..." Lachlan remained noncommittal.

Seeing his lukewarm response, Orion cleared his throat and said earnestly, "Mr. Willis, I know what I did before was wrong but if you're willing to help me out now then please name your price. Whatever needs doing in the future - just let me know."

"After all, it's better to resolve conflicts than to hold grudges, don't you think?"

Lachlan looked at Orion and nodded with interest. "You're right. Here, let's drink this and forget our grievances." He poured a full glass of white wine into Orion's cup.

Orion's face changed as he saw the alcohol in his cup.

Betty showed an angry expression. "Hey, why are you like this? Orion wants to make peace with you, but you're still treating him badly? His esophagus is already burned by alcohol, and yet you still give him more?"

Lachlan ignored her and raised his own glass as a signal to Orion.

He stared at Orion with his starry eyes, observing every micro-expression on his face. He wasn't doing this aimlessly; after experiencing the ups and downs of life and human nature, Lachlan didn't mind showing maximum hostility towards anyone who had previously been in conflict with him. Especially those who were insincere about making amends.

He could be gracious but not foolish.

Wanting to reconcile?

Of course it was possible - as long as it was genuine.
