The First Heir

Chapter 93

Philip did not say anything. Instead, he laughed in resignation as he turned around to leave.

Martha was still muttering to herself. “What a sight for sore eyes.”

Henry’s brows furrowed. Was this Mr. Clarke’s mother-in-law?

She was so spirited and rude.

Mr. Clarke was really unlucky to have such a mother-in-law.

“Wait!”

Henry called out to Philip and stood in front of him.

He was not happy with the way this mother-in-law was acting. Thus, he wanted to do something for Mr.Clarke.

“Who is this?” Henry’s tone was cold as he spoke to Juan.

Juan immediately responded in a complimentary manner, “Professor Turner, this is…”

Before the introductions could be finished, Martha began scolding unreasonably, “Who are you, you oldgrouch! What, do you want to speak up for that wimp?”

Old grouch?

Everyone present was dumbfounded!

This was the first time that Henry had been scolded in such a manner in his many years of practicingmedicine.

At that moment, he was so angry that all his blood rushed toward his head.

His apprentices, who were standing beside him, felt the same way. They stared coldly, itching to rip offthe woman’s mouth.

Juan was even more shocked. He tugged viciously on Martha’s arm. “Aunty Martha, don’t be rude. Heis…”

“I don’t care! Those who can speak up for that useless fool Philip can’t be any better off! Look at you,you’re already so old yet still dressed so flamboyantly! What, are you trying to lure little girls? You haveno respect for your old age!”

Martha was the kind who would not hold back when scolding someone. Her words were so poisonous.

“Say something, you old man! Why aren’t you speaking anymore? You were pretty fierce just now. Whydon’t you dare to say anything now? Did I blow your cover? Shameless old thing! Bah!” Martha tuckedher arms into her chest arrogantly as she raised her eyebrows.

Her choice of words was as poisonous as a fishwife shouting abuse in the street, cursing Henry to thevery core.

In her eyes, there was nothing to fear.

The entire group was stunned.

Juan was so frightened that he had begun shaking.

On one side was Wynn’s mother, and on the other hand, was a medical titan.

“Aunty Martha! Do you know who that is?” Juan had become anxious. He pulled Martha to the side ashe explained. “That’s Henry Turner!”

“Henry who? I don’t care who he is. I don’t know him.” Martha waved her hand, acting like an ignorantvillage woman.

“Aunty Martha! You’re in deep trouble now. Professor Henry Turner is an internationally recognizeddoctor and a legend within the country’s medical community! He’s the honorary guest of Hank Moseby,Jace Wade, and Hector Lee! Even the higher-ups in the county are his patients!”

Juan was frantic. She had practically dug her own grave!

If they offended this person, they would have to behead themselves ten times before they could beexcused!

“Huh?”

When Martha heard what Juan said, she was so frightened that she nearly lost her footing!

“This… This… This old man is so powerful?” Martha threw a frightened gaze at Henry who wasstanding nearby with a stony gaze on his face. As her eyes came into contact with his icy stare, sheshuddered.

“He knows all the tycoons in Orienta, and the higher-ups in the county are his patients.”

Martha nearly fainted from shock.

She was used to being arrogant and domineering. Now, in the presence of someone so powerful,Martha did not even dare to breathe loudly. She was so anxious.

After he had spoken to Martha, Juan hurriedly made his way back to Professor Henry. He bowed as heapologized profusely. “Professor Turner, I’m sorry. Aunty Martha hasn’t heard of you and offended you.I apologize on her behalf.”

Hmmph!

Henry Turner was not an easy person to talk to. He huffed coldly, his gaze chilly.

At this point, Martha realized that she should say something. She hurriedly made her way over.

Walking forth with an apologetic smile on her face, she made her apologies, “Well, Professor Turner,I’m so sorry. I didn’t know who you were. I’ll make my apologies here, I’m sorry.”

Martha was trembling. Although she was usually an arrogant and domineering person, she would onlyact that way in front of Philp. When she met big shots like Henry, she would also act meekly.

“Is an apology enough? Didn’t you say I’m an old fool and have no respect for my age?!”

Henry’s gaze was cold and piercing. Just a simple gaze could give one the urge to kneel. “If I don’tteach you a lesson today, I, Henry Turner, will no longer be a doctor!”

The group present was afraid to even breathe!

If Henry were to become infuriated, the entire Riverdale would be shocked!

Martha felt nothing but desperation at that moment. With a pale face, she very nearly got on her knees!

There was cold sweat all over Juan’s head. He was already thinking of ways to solve thismisunderstanding.

“Mr. Turner, for my sake, please let this matter go.”

Just at that moment, a voice that sounded so plain yet seemed so out of place rang out.
