James was not worried about the medical conference at all.
Getting the title of Asclepius was a piece of cake for him.
The only thing on his mind right now was to think of a way not to stand out too much.
James’ words calmed Thea down.
She had pinned all of her hopes on James. If James could not help navigate the Callahans through this crisis, the family would be doomed. They would be consigned to mediocrity for the rest of their lives.
Night-time came.
The family was having dinner.
Knock! Knock! Knock!
A knock came from outside.
James stood up and answered the door.
Lex, Howard’s, and John’s families were standing outside.
Seeing this, James frowned and asked, “What’s wrong, grandpa?”
“Sigh…” Lex sighed tiredly, “We’ll talk inside.”
“Please come in.”
James beckoned Lex to enter the house.
Seeing that the Callahans were here, Gladys’ face immediately turned sour.
“Have a seat, father.” Benjamin stood up and greeted Lex. He asked, “Have you eaten yet? Should I ask James to get you some cutlery?”
“Cutlery?” Gladys remarked coldly, “There’s no way we can feed that many mouths.”
There were too many of them.
Howard’s and John’s families combined together for a total of around twenty people.
Lex took a seat. The others remained standing.
James asked, “Didn’t I lend you a million dollars? Why didn’t you go looking for a place to stay?”
