About half an hour later.
The car drove into a luxurious area of villas.
Duncan felt it was a little familiar and reacted. Wasn't this the Whitehill Villa Village where Alyssa lived?
But what’s different is that they had come in through a different entrance.
And along this way it didn’t lead to an ordinary villa, but a manor surrounded by the mountains and the water.
This manor was a special area and no one could enter this place without permission.
He now understood that this was the Brown family's territory!
And the manor here was even more expensive than the ordinary villa on the other side. It covered thousands of acres and only a centuries-old family like the Brown family could own such a large piece of land.
In a few moments, two cars pulled up in front of a luxurious villa, one after the other.
"Mr. Longman, please. My grandfather is waiting for you inside."
Gladys reached out and welcomed him with a smile.
Duncan nodded, and without further ado, he strode inside.
Inside the villa, in the living room, several people were sitting on the couch at the moment.
In the center was the old man, Edward Brown, whom Duncan had saved earlier.
In addition, there were several other elderly people who had passed their prime, and each sat on a seat below Edward.
"Grandpa, I have invited Mr. Longman here."
Gladys said with a smile to Edward, who was in the center, just as she walked in.
The people in the living room were talking. At the sound of Gladys' words, everyone focused their attention on Gladys and gave her a polite smile.
"Mr. Longman, you saved my lives that day. Please accept my obeisance for your great kindness!"
At this moment, Edward, on the other hand, suddenly stood up, clasped his hands in a fist, and was about to pay his respects to Duncan.
Seeing this, Duncan frowned. Without waiting for Edward to bend down, he had already greeted him and held his hand as he said, "Mr.Brown, It’s my pleasure, I don't deserve such grand courtesy from you!"
When Edward heard this, he laughed loudly and said, "Mr. Longman, you are indeed an extraordinary man. OK, I will just stop being polite. Please take your seat!"
As he spoke, he looked at Duncan with a critical look in his eyes, and Duncan's unassuming attitude made him look up at him.
Duncan didn't say much and found a seat right next to Roy, whom he had met earlier.
Roy didn't really have a good feeling about Duncan. Now when he saw Duncan in the Brown family, his lips curled up into an odd.
However, at this point, he could not say anything more, but his eyes grew colder and colder as he looked at Duncan.
"Is this the highly skilled doctor who saved you earlier?"
At this moment, an old man with gray hair asked, and there was a hint of doubt in his tone.
After all, Edward's condition was so complex that it couldn’t be understand or cured just by medical strategies. But Duncan succeed in saving Edward's life, and he was so young, so it was no wonder that the others were skeptical to him.
"Yes, it is Mr. Longman!"
Gladys perceived the old man's doubts and replied in an affirmative tone.
"What a young talent, and he's completely outclassed us!"
Another man sighed. He was one of the H country's most famous doctors, Tab Steven.
"Since you were able to save Mr. Brown, you must have your own medical opinion. We are discussing Mr. Brown's condition, so if you have any ideas, you can tell us."
They spoke casually and got Duncan to join their conversation straight away.
"Is it really that serious?"
"You're not just being alarmist, are you?"
"Mr. Brown's condition is really complicated, but I think that with the right conditioning, he can still recover."
The three doctors expressed their doubts.
Roy at the side laughed and said, "Mr. Longman, you're not trying to scare us and thus trying to achieve your ulterior motives."
His words were a little harsh, causing the crowd to focus on Roy.
Duncan also frowned and gave him a look before suddenly laughing, "So tell me, what is my ulterior motive?"
"Everyone knows that the Brown family is one of the biggest families in JN City. Your origins are unknown and you are full of nonsense. I have to wonder if you're trying to scam the Brown family."
Roy said with a sneer.
"Roy, don't talk nonsense!"
Edward frowned and his eyes twinkled as he looked at Duncan, "I believe that Mr. Longman is not such a person. If he wanted to, he wouldn't have left without saying goodbye when we first met."
"Grandfather, I'm just guessing. After all, Human’s mind is unpredictable. So harbour no ill intention against others, but never relax vigilance against evil-doers,,right?"
Roy shrugged and smiled playfully, "Mr. Longman, I was only joking. You shouldn't mind, should you?"
Duncan laughed too. Roy had talked tough when they first met, and now he was doing the same again. Even a worm will turn and he was no exception.
"Since you guys don't believe in me, there's no point in my staying here. I have other matters to attend to, so, bye!"
After saying that, Duncan left without looking back.
Seeing this, Gladys glared angrily at her brother, scolded him for talking nonsense, and busily got up to chase him out.
