Chapter 26
“I’ve asked him before,” Monica responded, “For someone like Finn who has nothing, what kind of sh*tty luck did he have to get close to Fourth Master Swan?! Finn said that it was because of his clean background that he gained Fourth Master Swan’s trust. I thought about it… Although I really hate Finn, I heard that his medical skills are great. He’s 29 years old this year, right? Yeah, he’s four years older than me and seems to be the same age as Fourth Master Swan. It was probably difficult for someone his age to become the chief surgeon of South Hampton City’s Central Hospital!”
“Didn’t you ask me to bring down the Lockes? I originally prepared a project to make the Lockes empty their assets. I didn’t expect that someone would be a step ahead of me. At this moment, the Lockes is diverting a large number of funds to do an e-commerce project. As far as I know, the repayment date of their loan from the bank is these few days. If this project is void, the bank is very likely going to stop lending them money and will even pursue them for repayment. Once the chain of their funds is broken, the Lockes will go bankrupt in no time.”
She was so excited that she almost jumped. She said, “Godson, how could you perform so well just now? You were so obedient and sensible and made the Lockes humiliate themselves. I just heard someone secretly scolding the Lockes, saying that they’re lacking in manners. They also said that that darn woman, Octavia, is a blabbermouth who always says bad things about others…”
Jonathan continued, “During this period, the Lockes has been embarrassed many times because of you. Whether it’s the charity banquet last time, intentionally letting George steal the limelight this afternoon, or causing that little grandson of the Lockes to be humiliated today. In short, you must apologize tomorrow and bring your son, George, along with you!”
Fourth Master Swan was the kind of man who could stun women with a glance such that they would not be able to shift their gaze away. He was so handsome that he could be considered the best in the world! Even so, it was also because he was too handsome that people did not dare to approach him easily.
On the other hand, Finn was different. He was refined and gentle. He was the kind of man who was not very eye-catching at first glance. After looking at him for a while, one would feel that he was alright. After looking at him for a while, one might then fall for him.
“I’ve asked Finn. There’s no problem with Fourth Master Swan.” Monica gave a positive answer. “He just has a cold personality and doesn’t like women. Besides, don’t you think that Fourth Master Swan looks like… a stud?!”
“Dr. Jones?” Monica was stunned, “Oh, he had surgery in the afternoon, so he left after lunch. Speaking of which, Jeanne, don’t tell me that you’ve fallen for him! I’m telling you, don’t do it. He’s a scum!”
Jonathan said sternly to Jeanne, “Jeanne, I don’t care if you did it intentionally or not, or if you’ve been wronged or not. I’m telling you clearly now that you must go and apologize to the Lockes!”
“Alright, can we not talk about him anymore? No matter how good his medical skills are, it can’t hide his scumbag nature!” Monica said impatiently, “I’m going to the washroom.”
Nevertheless, Monica was different from ordinary people. She fell in love with Finn at first sight, but she was also heartless when she wanted to break it off with him!
He turned around and looked at Edward, muttering to himself, ‘I really can’t provoke this tiger at all. Otherwise, I wouldn’t even know how I died!’
Monica had heard that Finn had performed several world-famous heart surgeries. His medical skills had a certain degree of influence internationally.
While the Lawrence family was not considered one of the top families in South Hampton City, they were still very considerate in terms of etiquette.
Logically speaking, given Fourth Master Swan’s status, it would be very difficult for someone like Finn, who had no background, to get close to.
Apart from the unpleasant incident that happened in the afternoon, Old Master Lawrence’s Birthday Banquet was successful overall.
