Chapter 3315
Doc explained on Patrick's behalf the real reasons he had been unable to avenge Tiara for the past few decades. Patrick was agitated as his tears streamed down his face out of guilt toward his matriarch and he began to cough violently.
Doc hurriedly took out the medication he took with him everywhere, shook two pills out of the bottle, and made Patrick swallow them as he said, "Don't get so excited, Patrick. We haven't even gotten to meet your little miss Audrey yet."
The others also kept comforting Patrick and told him not to get overly excited. Once he took the pills and had some water, Patrick calmed down. Clive was very nervous too, worried about the old man's health.
He had never met Doc before but knew of his abilities and how Dr. Carden was his eldest disciple. Dr. Carden had helped Camryn recover her eyesight and Doc was pretty much the Johnsons' in-law, while the Stones were also in-laws with the Johnsons. Due to this convoluted form of kinship, they could not be neglectful.noveldrama
When Clive saw Patrick had calmed down, he said, "Sirs, I'll go get my mother to come downstairs. Please wait a moment."
Then, he turned to Patrick and said, "Sir, I believe you had no choice but to do what you could. My mother has never blamed you, so don't put so much pressure on yourself."
"Gabe, please attend to them well. I'm heading upstairs," Clive instructed.
Gabe respectfully responded.
After Clive went upstairs, he first called Remy. Once Remy picked up, he said in a low voice, "Remy, get over here right now. Yes, right now. Come and take a look."
Remy was shocked to hear his future brother-in-law asking him to come over so early in the morning and thought something had happened. He hurriedly asked, "What happened, Clive?"
"A few old men have come to visit. One of them claims to be the legendary doctor. I've heard of him, but I've never actually seen him before. He's in- laws with your family, so you've probably seen him, right? Come and take a look to confirm if it is him and his friends."
At this, Remy asked, "Doc's here? Why is he here? I heard from Ben that he took Laurence back to FC Manor to help Tim babysit once Laurence's winter break started. I never heard he was coming to Wiltspoon. Anyway, I'll come over to take a look right away, but I don't think anyone would dare to pose as him.”
If someone tried to pose as Doc, they might be able to fool others, but would these scammers even dare to try to lie to a rich and powerful family like the Stones? Had they no idea that the Stones and the Johnsons were about to become in-laws, and that Doc and the Johnsons were already in-laws, so they must have seen Doc before?
Remy guessed that it was very much possible that Doc had come, but why was he visiting the Stones so early? That, Remy could not figure out.
After asking Remy to come over to confirm if Doc and co. were the real deal, Clive called Zachary, who was just dragging the reluctant Sonny out of bed to send him to preschool. Sonny grumbled that Serenity could sleep in whereas he had to wake up early every day to go to preschool. He did not want to go to preschool anymore, but Zachary brought up Laurence. Not wanting to fall behind his little friend, Sonny stopped grumbling.
After Zachary married Serenity, his relationship with Clive was no longer as tense as before, but they would not take the initiative to call each other for
no reason.
"What's up?" Zachary asked in a low voice before turning to say to Sonny, "Put on your clothes by yourself, and then go wash your face, and brush your teeth."
"What?" Clive was confused.
"I'm not talking to you. I'm talking to Sonny."
Clive was at a loss for words.
