The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 922

The old lady was furious. She pointed towards Darven and said, “Can you be any more shameless, you old geezer? Do you not know how to respect your masters? Even if he’s your teacher for only a day, you should regard him like your father for the rest of your life. Your master taught and helped you to finish your apprenticeship, yet you have forgotten about him. You didn’t even come back to attend your master’s funeral after his death. You ungrateful rascal, you even want to take your master’s sign. Where does your confidence come from? Where did you get the balls to do this?” Darven only huffed at the old lady, despite her questioning. “It’s none of your business, ain’t it? Old hag, stop butting your nose in this. Careful, or you might die on the spot!” “What did you say?” The old lady was so furious that she was about to explode on the spot. She was a famous traditional doctor. She was a person of virtue and prestige at normal times. When did she ever get insulted like this? She panted heavily, not being able to say a word. Darven chuckled as he said, “See? I was right, huh? You don’t have many days left in this world, old hag, yet you’re jumping up and down. What for? Could it be that you’re Old James’s ex or something? Don’t tell me, this young girl here is your love child?” The old lady’s lips were trembling as her eyes widened. She looked as if she was about to pass any minute now. Just then, Cheryl whispered something into James’s ears. James was overjoyed as he turned to look at Alex. Then, he laughed out loud and pulled the old lady aside, smiling smugly at Darven. “Didn’t you say that you’d throw us out and won’t let us hold the medical exchange? Go ahead then! Hurry and do it!” Darven froze for a brief moment as he didn’t understand why James was suddenly so cocky. Well, just a while ago, James was panicking when he threatened him with this, he looked as if the sky was crashing down. James could not be blamed for it. He was known as the legendary doctor in California and had a great reputation. Money whatsoever was no longer important when he had reached such a status. Reputation was only the most important thing. He was the current president of the Medical Club of California and also the honorary principal of the Medical School of California. This time, he was the one who single handedly brought about Triangle River Delta Medical Exchange in California. In this way, his personal reputation would be even more profound. It had attracted a number of famous doctors within and outside of Triangle River Delta. However, all the participating members had arrived on the day of the official event. If they were to be kicked out by the hotel’s management, all Jame’s hard work would be all for naught. When people looked at him, their first impression would view him as an unreliable person. Then, his reputation would be ruined and he would end tip as a laughing stock. However, how long had it been? His attitude had done a 180 degree change! “Old James, you need to think properly. To ruin your great title as the legendary doctor of California for the sake of Ganoderma, that’s not quite worth it.” Darven’s expression darkened. His goal was not to ruin James’s reputation, but to acquire the sign of Ganoderma. James huffed coldly as he said, “It doesn’t matter, I’m willing to do it.” Darven squinted his eyes. “Fine! Since you’re so stubborn, don’t blame me for being cruel then.” He immediately took his phone out to call Matthew. However, no one picked up! James said with a smile, “Come on now, we’re waiting for your nephew to kick us out! You’ve said those words, yet you couldn’t kick us out in the end. Wouldn’t you just be a pile of bullcrap? Who would dare to let you cure them in the future?” Darven furrowed his eyebrows. He consecutively called his nephew thrice and his forehead started sweating, yet nobody answered. “What’s the matter? We’ve had a deal. How can he let me down at the critical moment?” Just then, Alex spoke up, “Looks like your nephew wouldn’t be able to kick us out now. How about this? Let me help you ask, let’s see what he’s doing right now!” As he spoke, he then dialed Azure’s number into his phone.
