He had spent so much money on the 30 medical books.
“No thanks. I never charge others for treatment,” Rose said flatly.
Sherleen’s heart instantly thumped at that, and she was in awe of Astor. She had felt disdain whenever she heard the words “Dr. Lennon”, thinking Rose was only putting on a show to gain a good reputation. However, the other party even rejected the house visit fee worth ten million dollars, which ordinary people would never do!
Sherleen only realized now that Rose was not putting on a show by treating people for free.
“You’re… You are so impervious to fame and wealth. I’m impressed…” Sherleen said emotionally.
”No thanks. I just hope the Yale family won’t give me any more trouble,” Rose’s tone was flat.
Sherleen immediately chuckled and said, ”No way… You cured my father and brought him back from the dead. We can’t thank you enough. There’s no way we’ll give you trouble. Mr. Lennon, you’re our most distinguished guest from now on. You can come to us no matter what issues you face in Midwich. We’ll never stand idly by!”
“Thank you very much then,” Rose said, turned around, and headed outside with Hezti.
“I’ll see Mr. Lennon to the door,” Lola said quickly before trying to catch up.
However, someone else was faster than her.
“Lola, stay here and take care of Grandpa. I’ll see Mr. Lennon to the door…”
With that said, Clinton quickly walked out of the meeting room and caught up with Rose and Hezti.
Clinton drove Rose and Hezti back to East World Hotel.
Clinton sincerely apologized to Rose on the way. “Mr. Lennon, I apologize for everything I did before. I was too childish and competitive.”
“It doesn’t matter. It’s all in the past,” Rose waved his hand and said.
“I know. Do you think I wouldn’t notice it was you?” Rose looked playfully at Clinton.
”Don’t worry. I don’t mind. It’s nothing,” Rose said again.
Clinton had not paid attention to what Rose said earlier, but he now took it seriously and humbly sought advice.
