Chapter 74
44 Chapter 74 Chapter 74 +25 BONUS Dexter sneered at Andrew.
Youve got some nerve.
Just because you won a few races and caught Mr.
Thatchers attention, you think stories about his health to get him to depend on you? you can make, Harvey added with a smirk, Thats pretty low, Andrew.
Trying to climb the social ladder by tricking Mr.
Thatcher is honestly quite naive.
Id explain it to you, but honestly, with you, the lights are on, but nobodys home, Andrew replied calmly.
Is he insulting us with some fancy words? Dexter asked Harvey in confusion.
Whats that supposed to mean? Harvey scoffed.
Just meaningless rambling.
Lets go! As Dexter passed Andrew, he strutted arrogantly and said, Hey, freeloader, I do have my lights on, thank you very much! My electricity bill is proof! 1 Dexter, lets go! Harvey called out, red faced with embarrassment.
Having such an uncultured sidekick was truly embarrassing.
Lauren stifled a laugh.
Dr.
Lloyd, you should know that while Dexters family is wealthy, theyre not exactly refined.
Fheard he dropped out after second grade! Francesca turned to Andrew with a stern expression.
Now that were alone, tell me what makes you think Mr.
Thatcher has a serious illness? The symptoms were obvious.
Didnt you notice? Andrew glanced at her.
Francesca sneered.
Well, excuse me for not having your supposedly brilliant insight. Content originally comes from.net
Bernard is his personal physician, and my grandpa often visits Mr.
Thatcher.
Are you suggesting theyre both blind to his condition? I met your grandfather at the Stevens family gathering once, Andrew replied.
Hes not blind, but … But what? But hes past his prime, easily ruffled, and overly prideful.
Lets just say his skills a rather basic for someone of his experience and renown Francescas face flushed with anger.
She could not believe that Andrew actually dismissed her grandfather, a respected medical authority, as merely basic.
How dare you look down on our familys medical legacy! Francesca fumed.
My grandpas reputation as a miracle doctor is well established in Jayrodale! Jayrodale is just a small pond.
Being called a miracle doctor here is like being called a king in medieval times when ruling over a few villages.
Does that really mean anything in the grand 1/2 Chapter 74 scheme of things? Andrew retorted.
Francesca was left speechless by Andrews sharp response, but her anger continued to stew.
She could not tolerate this man she had always looked down on speaking to her so condescendingly.
Fran, Dr.
Lloyd, please stop arguing, Lauren quickly intervened.
Dr.
Aicker is indeed famous in Jayrodale, but Fran, Dr.
Lloyd is also very skilled.
Remember, you still need his help with your condition! For Laurens sake, Ill let this go, Francesca replied icily.
