Chapter 635
More people began to express their amity toward Roxanne and Larry. It wasn’t long before the ambiance of the room grew harmonious and relaxed.
Jack waited a while longer, and after seeing Roxanne and Larry return to their seats, he began to introduce the other doctors. Every figure here had some achievements in the medical field, so a mere mention of his or her was more than sufficient. Soon, everyone felt nothing but respect for one another, not to mention the anticipation of their upcoming collaboration..
Now that official talks were out of the way, the audience moved to light-hearted) topics, striking up conversations with those they were well-acquainted with.
Despite not being a fan of socializing, Jack took the lead and headed to the middle of the crowd with a wine glass in hand.
Roxanne and Larry clinked glasses with all the elders there before returning to their seats. “It looks like the collaboration will go well,” Larry commented, grinning.
Roxanne nodded in response and shot a glance at Jack, who was among the crowd. The man deserved all the credit for creating such a lovely atmosphere.
I thought he was just a good doctor. I didn’t think he’d make such a capable leader too. Then again, it’s no surprise. If the future heir of the great Damaris family can’t even control a crowd like this, there’s no way Old Mr. Damaris would ever approve of him.
Just as everyone chatted away happily, the door to the banquet hall suddenly flew open.
The crowd instinctively looked toward the entrance, only to watch a group of young, aristocratic women make their way in.
