Task NO.1 How to Pursue Miss CEO novel Chapter 581

Chapter 581 An Eccentric

The hut was clean and meticulous, which was a pleasant sight to behold. When the group passed by the study, a rich scent of herbs drifted out. “My master is in there. You should go greet him.”

“Doctor Werner, I’m sorry to have imposed ourselves on you,” Selena said politely.

“Hmph! What kind of parents bring their children on an outing during such a cold day? By the way, don’t even think about using the kids to put pressure on me into administering any sort of treatment! Leave once the snow stops!” The gray-haired doctor who reprimanded them had his back to the entrance, so none of them could see his face. All they knew was that he had a powerful voice.

The old man smiled awkwardly. “This way please. My master has a bad temper, so please don’t take his words to heart.”

“I don’t think he’s just grumpy.” Pierre snorted.

Upon hearing that, Selena glared at him. “I’m sorry, mister, and thank you for your assistance.”

The old man was polite and kind as he showed them to a guest room. “We only have a single room here. I’m afraid it will be a tight squeeze considering you have three children, but please bear with it.”

“Sure. Thank you.”

“However, my master no longer treats the sick, nor does he like the company of strangers. After the snow stops and the trail clears out a little, I’m afraid you’ll have to leave.”

“Okay.”

After offering them some hot water and snacks, the old man left. Although the hut was small, it was warm. The kids never got to spend time in a mountain before that, so they—especially Juniper and Jameson—were awfully excited as they admired the snow while leaning against the window.
