Chapter 637
“Mr. Damaris surely isn’t the only one who wanted her to join them. Roxanne had Old Mr. Damaris’ approval too,” uttered Larry, who had been paying attention to their interaction, when he saw that Roxanne was stumped.
At that, Jessica knitted her brows and turned to the side to look at him.
She had already noticed the young man a while ago. He was outstanding, but she was not interested in him. Yet, to her surprise, the man had actually forced himself into her line of sight and even defended Roxanne.
“You’re…” Jessica started, frowning. Larry introduced himself politely, “I’m Larry Morrison. I’m just an ordinary doctor, so you don’t need to remember me.”
Shock flitted past Jessica’s eyes.
Larry was the son of the Morrison family, and everyone within the circle would have heard about him. They knew that he was uninterested in his family’s fortune and had established a place for himself in the medical world. It was rare to spot Larry in banquets in Horington over the years.
Therefore, it was Jessica’s first time seeing him in person. She could not help but think that he lived up to his name. Even though he was the son of the Morrison family, he seemed calm and collected and not at all aggressive.
Perhaps his many years of practicing medicine were what made him learn to keep his aggression away from his exterior.
When Jessica came back to her senses, she promptly smiled and greeted Larry in return, “So you’re Mr. Morrison. I’ve heard of you since a long time ago.”
Larry nodded. “If there’s nothing else, Ms. Hightower, I’d like to have a chat with Dr. Jarvis.”
Before Jessica could respond to that, Larry had already turned to Roxanne. “Are you free, Dr. Jarvis? There are some things about medical practices that I’d like to discuss with you.”
Even Roxanne could not help but freeze for a moment.
