Daddy the Miracle Medic (Lachlan and Miranda) novel Chapter 98

Chapter 98 Eagle vs. Chick

As Scarlet finished speaking, the group of herbalists and Atkinson father and son all looked at Lachlan with disdain.

If it were just a group of regular people drinking tea together, they would drink however they wanted without anyone saying anything. But when these important figures gathered for a tea party, it was different. Everyone used various tea utensils and followed specific steps to carefully taste the tea.

In this situation, he sitting down to drink plain water was bound to be criticized. "What's wrong? Is there so much etiquette involved in drinking tea?" Lachlan furrowed his brow and asked Scarlet.

"Haha, no no! Mr. Willis, you can do as you please," Albie laughed awkwardly, trying to ease the tension.

However, Scarlet wasn't willing to let it go. She wanted to embarrass Lachlan today, "Of course! The tea we're drinking now is an imported premium oolong from Topool."

"The first pot of water used for brewing oolong should be discarded. You actually took it straight up and drank it like a country bumpkin who's never had good tea before! And you have to warm the pot first before putting in the leaves so that the fragrance can fully infuse into the water before you can truly enjoy it."

"This kind of good quality tea being drunk by someone like you is such a waste! Tsk tsk..." Kacper mocked loudly.

The herbalists who came here for supplies also looked at Lachlan with contemptuous eyes.

It was as if they were high-class elites, and Lachlan was just a lowly loser who didn't deserve to sit with them.

"Is this the guy who married into the Lowe family?" one of them sneered.

"What Lowe family? Haven't you heard? Miranda and her family have been kicked out of the clan!" another chimed in.

"We're supplying Romeo now, not under Miranda's control anymore!"

"Hmph, this son-in-law is nothing now."

"Just look at what he's wearing. It's all torn and dirty. How can he even show his face here?"

Lachlan had gotten a bit dirty from helping Miranda bring equipment into the factory earlier, and he hadn't had time to change before coming to see Albie.

Many of these herb suppliers were also suppliers for Lowe's Pharmaceutical. Even though Miranda had reached an agreement with Albie, their previous material suppliers hadn't terminated their contracts yet.

They all looked down on Lachlan and spoke ill of him one after another. Hearing their words made Albie raise an eyebrow in surprise; he'd just come back from Yeginia and hadn't heard about Lowe's Pharmaceutical changing CEOs yet.

Scarlet glared at Lachlan and let out a soft snort filled with satisfaction. She couldn't be happier hearing these people mock him like that after how arrogant he'd been towards her before.

However, Lachlan faced the disdain and mockery of these people with a calm smile, continuing to drink as he pleased.

"Wow, he's got some thick skin!" Scarlet gritted her teeth and cursed under her breath.

Albie furrowed his brow and signaled for Lachlan to leave with him, but it seemed like Lachlan didn't even notice.

With no other choice, Albie quietly left the hall himself to retrieve the two "Dragon Marrow Herbs."

He saw that everyone was mocking Lachlan and just wanted him to get what he needed and leave as soon as possible so he wouldn't be humiliated here.

At this moment, Monty signaled to the middle-aged man next to him. "Master Howard!"

The man's name was Jay Howard. Rumor had it that his strength had already reached the later stages of Transmutation Force. He was known as Kreanford's number one expert!
