Chapter 69 A Slap In The Face
He came to attend Old Mr. Parks’s birthday party today because he wanted to meet Annalise in person.
Even if they couldn’t be a couple, they could still be friends. After all, she was the Jones family’s benefactor. If Julian was unwilling to cherish his wife, Alan did not mind that she had been married to Julian. He would. snatch Annalise from Julian.
In his opinion, genuine appreciation and liking were more important than anything else.
Since Annalise gave Old Mr. Parks a congratulatory gift, he had been paying attention to every move there. When he heard Tony telling her to get lost, he was anxious.
His fists clenched, and he gradually loosened them. He kept taking deep breaths to suppress the urge in his heart.
Annalise was Julian’s wife. If Julian didn’t protect her, he would protect her. He felt relationships had to have rules, measures, and duties.
When he saw Julian protecting her, he felt both sad for himself and happy for Annalise.
Tony was still emphasizing that the elixir pills were fake. Alan couldn’t take it anymore. So, he called the Jones family’s private doctor to help Annalise.
Today, he would help Annalise teach those ignorant people a lesson.
When Samuel saw the Jones family’s private doctor coming over, he immediately handed the jar to the doctor. “Thank you.”
The Jones family’s private doctor immediately took the jar politely with both hands.
He sniffed it and took out another elixir pill. He peeled off the paper and looked at the elixir pill. Then, he sniffed it and said firmly, “This is a real Energizing Pill. It’s real!”
That was a shocking turn. Buzz-
Everyone was shocked.
Tony could not believe his ears.
Abigail felt so ashamed that her face was burning. She wished she could find a hole to hide in.
Then, she heard a mock. “Pfft, hahaha, I can’t take it anymore. This is hilarious. Medical student. Hahaha, doctors can’t tell if an elixir pill is real or fake. Her father sent her to school, yet she must be thinking about. dating every day.”
She subconsciously turned her head and wanted to glare back, but she realized that the woman was Sybil. Alexander had introduced Sybil to her and told her not to provoke Sybil.
Sybil was the apple of Jadeborough’s second wealthiest man’s eye and was difficult to deal with.
As soon as Sybil spoke, many people mocked along.
“Everyone says that Julian is blind to marrying an incompetent woman. I think Alexander is the blind one. He married a woman who talks nonsense.”
“Not only did she spout nonsense, but she’s also mean. She clearly wants Annalise to make a fool of himself. She’s a scourge.”
They continued mocking.
Alexander also heard these comments. He was very unhappy, but he maintained a calm smile on his face.
Her mother said that no matter what environment a person was in, they had to have protective colors. Smiling was the best protective color.
Life was long. It was inevitable that there would be times when one was down and out or awkward. One would be looked up to as long as one maintained a calm smile.
Tony thought about seeing Annalise brewing the medicine with his own eyes that night. He still did not believe that this jar of Energizing Pills was real. He said, “Sir, take a good look. Maybe you have mistaken.” Abigail immediately reached out and tugged at Tony’s clothes.
They had already embarrassed themselves enough. They could not continue to worsen the situation.
If no one at the scene knew how to appraise it, they could still insist it was fake. Now that a famous doctor was present, they had to end this topic quickly.
Tony reacted after being pulled. He frowned deeply and held back his anger.
