“Mr. Fanny, for you sake, I’ll let this matter slide. If Xavier doesn’t know his place and dares to provoke me again, I can only say the consequences will be quite severe!” Leo’s tone was filled with absolute dominance.
“Dr. Bloomer, rest assured. After this incident, Angelo and I will definitely discipline Xavier properly. If he dares to bother you again, I’ll be the first to break his legs!” Elroy Fanny assured.
At this moment, Angelo, who had taken Xavier away, returned.
Angelo’s expression was still ugly, but due to Mr. Fanny’s influence, he could only endure.
Elroy Fanny glanced at Angelo and ordered, “Angelo, make a call to the nearby Audi dealership. Tell them to deliver a top-of-the-line Audi A8L here in the shortest possible time!”
“Dad…”
“Do as I say!” Elroy Fanny shouted.
Angelo had no choice but to take out his phone and make the call.
In about ten minutes, a brand new Audi A8 arrived, driven by the staff from the dealership, and parked in the Fanny family mansion’s parking lot.
Elroy Fanny took the car keys and handed them to Leo. “Dr. Bloomer, this new car is compensation for you. I hope you’ll be satisfied.”
Leo took the car keys, walked to the Audi, and opened the car door. “Mr. Fanny, let’s consider today’s matter settled. Remember to take the medicine I gave you. Goodbye!”
After saying that, Leo got into the car, started it, turned around, and drove out of the Fanny family mansion.
Once the car was far away, Angelo was extremely puzzled. “Dad, that guy just cured your illness. There’s no need to treat him like this. Aren’t you making a mountain out of a molehill?”
“Making a mountain out of a molehill?” Elroy Fanny withdrew his gaze and looked at Angelo with a profound gaze, instructing, “Angelo, without investigation, you have no right to speak. This guy Leo, the son-in-law of the Bloomer family, is not simple.”
“Not simple?” Angelo was confused. How could a man living off a woman be anything special?
Elroy Fanny turned and said, “Come, let’s go back to the room. I’ll show you some information, and you’ll understand.”
After leaving, Leo drove straight to the unnamed Chinese medicine clinic.
On the way, Leo received a text message from Rosemary. The content was: “Leo, being with you, life is never lacking in excitement and passion.”
Leo knew what Rosemary meant by “excitement and passion.” He smiled but didn’t reply.
After parking the car, Leo walked into the clinic. To his surprise, Dr. Rudolph, who he hadn’t seen for some time, was in the clinic. President Mackintosh from the hospital was also present.
Dr. Rudolph and President Mackintosh were chatting. When they saw Leo return, they quickly shifted their attention to him.
Dr. Rudolph spoke first, “Dr. Bloomer, I just returned to Langstel. President Mackintosh told me about your matter. Well done, you’ve given the traditional Chinese medicine a good name.”
“Dr. Rudolph, you’re too kind.” Leo smiled.
“No need to be modest. I know your abilities. In you, I see hope for the prosperity of traditional Chinese medicine. Old bones like us are no match for you.” Dr. Rudolph chuckled and continued, “Dr. Bloomer, I came to your clinic today to discuss something with you.”
“What’s the matter, Dr. Rudolph? Please, go ahead.”
Dr. Rudolph glanced at President Mackintosh and then said, “In the lineage of traditional Chinese medicine, it has become somewhat neglected. Dr. Bloomer, your medical skills are extraordinary. Do you have any thoughts about passing on your knowledge?”
Leo had some understanding and replied, “Dr. Rudolph, are you suggesting that I take on apprentices?”
Dr. Rudolph shook his head, “Taking on apprentices is too narrow, not conducive to promoting traditional Chinese medicine. President Mackintosh and I have discussed and would like to invite you to give lectures at the university. This way, we can spread the essence of Chinese medicine.”
President Mackintosh nodded, “Indeed, Dr. Bloomer. Do you have any interest in doing this?”
“If it helps promote traditional Chinese medicine, I’m more than willing. However, I lack the experience and qualifications to teach at a university. They surely wouldn’t let me lecture,” Leo said with a wry smile.
President Mackintosh quickly reassured him, “Don’t worry about that. Dr. Rudolph and I have already taken care of it. If Dr. Bloomer agrees, you can give lectures at Langstel Medical University. The president of the medical university and I are old classmates, so I’ll inform him about the lectures.”
After thinking for a moment, Leo replied, “In that case, I can dedicate one day a week to giving lectures.”
Seeing Leo agree, both Dr. Rudolph and President Mackintosh were pleased.
After seeing off Dr. Rudolph and President Mackintosh, Leo conducted consultations in the clinic for over an hour. Then, he drove to pick up Sophia after work.
In the underground parking lot, although the Audi A8L was the same top-of-the-line model, Sophia noticed a difference the moment she got into the car.
Leo had to give her a detailed explanation, although it didn’t entirely match the actual situation. To avoid any misunderstanding, he didn’t mention that he went to the Fanny family to accompany Rosemary to her Grandpa Elroy’s birthday banquet. Instead, he said he went to Mr. Fanny’s house to treat him, and Xavier, Mr. Fanny’s grandson, smashed his car because he didn’t like him.
Leo couldn’t tolerate his beloved car being damaged. After giving Xavier a stern lesson, Mr. Fanny compensated him with a new car.
Understanding the situation, Sophia sighed, “Leo, have you noticed something?”
“What’s that?”
“No matter where you go, trouble always finds you.”
Leo joked, “Well, it’s not my fault I’m attractive.”
“Conceited!” Sophia rolled her eyes at him.
On the way home, Sophia thought about the loan and said, “By the way, the matter of the malicious takeover of shares has been resolved. Several companies, led by Spring Wind Cosmetics, suffered a crushing defeat! Under Azure Financial’s operation, the ten billion we invested even earned a considerable profit. You should repay that ten billion to the bank as soon as possible; otherwise, the interest alone will be a frightening amount.”
Leo nodded, “Okay, tomorrow I’ll repay the ten billion to Wampole Bank.”
Back in the villa area, as soon as they entered the house, Jessica, sitting on the sofa, patted the seat beside her, saying, “Both of you, come over and sit down. I have something to say.”
Sophia and Leo exchanged glances and walked over.
“Mom, is there something wrong?” Sophia asked with some confusion.
Jessica took out the property deed book from her side and placed it on the coffee table in front of her. She looked at Leo and said, “Leo, the No. 9 villa on Cloud Dream Mountain now belongs to Sophia. In other words, this villa has nothing to do with you anymore. It’s the property of the Bloomer family. In the future, you better behave yourself in this house, understand?”
Upon hearing this, before Leo could respond, Sophia protested, “Mom, what are you trying to do? Leo is my husband, your son-in-law. What do you mean by saying he has nothing to do with him?”
