Gina snorted nonchntly. “So what? What does that have to do with us?”
“Mom… Why are you like this?” Helen stamped her feet in frustration, but she could not do anything
since it was her mother.
She regretted her actions too–she really should have been more careful instead of blundering and
questioning Frank.
That was when Cindy strode up and asked, “You’ve already divorced Frank Lawrence–why worry about
him? You should be thinking about how to get the Rejuvenation Pill recipe off his hands, and we will all
be rich!”
Helen wheeled on her shameless cousin, having had enough just then. “Stop it! No one is to ever
mention the Rejuvenation Pill recipe ever again, or I won’t hold back!”
With that, Helen stormed upstairs, leaving Gina and the rest speechless.
“Honestly…”
“What’s with her? Why does she always side with some nobody?
Meanwhile, Frank arrived at Flora Hall, where Dan was waiting with J in tow.
They both approached him as soon as they saw him arrive.
“Wee, Mr. Lawrence.‘
“Thank you, Mr. Zimmer,” Frank replied, here to discuss medicine as they had agreed before, while he
would get some herbs as well.
Naturally, Flora Hall is an expansive business and they would not mind giving away some.
“Come this way, Mr. Lawrence,” Dan said as he ushered Frank to the cloister.
J had already made tea, and she sat and listened as Frank and spoke a length to Dan about
medicine.
They spoke about various topics from medicinal theories to acupuncture, and Dan actually felt
incredibly enlightened.
Still, as their discussion continued to midnight, J started to nod off and yawn repeatedly even
though she was just listening.
Seeing that, Frank asked, “It’ste, Mr. Zimmer. Why don’t we continue some other day?”
Dan stroked his beard, a little embarrassed just then. “Haha… Apologies, Mr. Lawrence. I’ve really lost
track of time in our discussion.”
Frank smiled. “Being able to discuss our knowledge was enriching for me too–oh, and there are some
herbs that I’d need. May I ask for some?”
It waste, but Frank did hot forget why he came.
Dan spread his arms right then. “Oh, Mr. Lawrence–like I said before, you just need to ask.
After all, Frank was the one who invented the Rejuvenation Pill. He was absolutely supportive. of
Frank, no matter what thetter had in mind.
“Why don’t you stay the night too?” Dan suggested. “You can use our pill refinement chambers.”
He could also get a peek while Frank worked, which worked absolutely to his advantage.
Frank thought about it and nodded, since it spared him the trouble of going back to Skywater Bay.
Dan the
Dan then passed J the list of ingredients and told her to gather the herbs for Frank.
After that, he led Frank to the guest room, which was just beside the pill refinement chambers.
If Frank got tired, he could retire to his room right away–it was exceedingly convenient.
“This chamber shall be reserved for your personal use from now on, Mr. Lawrence. You cane use
it anytime you like.”
Frank threw up his hands. “This is too much, Mr. Zimmer…”
“No, it’s no trouble,” Dan said cheerfully, leaving Frank a little embarrassed. “There’s no such thing as
trouble when it’s us–please don’t turn me down… Also, it’ste now, so I won’t impose.”
He left, and J soon entered with a stack of medicinal herbs.
Frank quickly took them off her hands. “It’s okay. Just leave everything here.”Content ? N?velDrama.Org.
