Daddy the Miracle Medic

Chapter 67 This is suicidal!

As Lachlan swaggered towards the private room, everyone was filled with suspicion. Was he ignorant and looking for trouble, or did he have some kind of backup?

Kiera's eyes flashed with doubt. Could he really be the distinguished guest her grandfather had asked her to meet? If so, then her grandfather was seriously unreliable.

Not only was his attire inappropriate, but the fact that he was married to a Lowe family heiress made him unacceptable to Kiera.

Betty and Orion exchanged glances while other wealthy heirs looked at each other in confusion. "Could it be that he is really the distinguished guest?"

"No way! That's impossible!"

"How could a son-in-law of the Lowe family become Erik's distinguished guest?"

However, in the next moment, as everyone held onto their last shred of hope and unwillingness to accept this reality, Lachlan arrived at the door of the private room.

"Sir, may I ask who you are?" Two attractive female servers guarded the entrance and politely asked as they saw Lachlan approaching.

"My surname is Willis."

Lachlan shrugged off the attention and looked around the room. Erik was the first to greet him, poking his head out of the private room to see if Henry had welcomed Lachlan in.

"Hey, you made it!" Erik exclaimed upon seeing Lachlan. He then noticed Kiera and others behind him and said with a knowing smile, "Looks like you came up with Kiera and her crew.”

Lachlan just smiled back without saying much.

The commotion drew other people from inside the private room. Caelan who was already unmasked, Reeva, Clifford and a slightly overweight middle-aged man joined them.

"You're early, young man! Haha..." Caelan grabbed Lachlan’s arm warmly as he spoke.

The old man's chin was still slightly crooked but not as terrifying as before.

"I thought we'd have to wait for you longer. No wonder Chloe calls you Pigsy - always first in line for food," Reeva rolled her eyes at Lachlan playfully and teased him good-naturedly.

Caelan immediately scolded his granddaughter, "Reeva! Don't be rude!"

Lachlan just chuckled at their banter without saying anything else.

Reeva stuck out her tongue, playfully winking at Lachlan.

Lachlan chuckled and waved it off.

"Mr. Willis!" At that moment, Clifford approached with a bow of respect towards Lachlan.

Betty, Orion, and the other wealthy heirs were dumbfounded.

Kiera's eyes widened in surprise as she realized that her suspicions had been confirmed - Lachlan was indeed the esteemed guest of the day!

They had all been waiting for Lachlan to make an appearance so Erik could expose him, but instead he was being treated with such reverence.

However, what happened next left them even more stunned.

The slightly overweight middle-aged man rushed over to Lachlan with excitement on his face. "You... you're Dr. Willis?" Vincent Reid grabbed hold of Lachlan's hand eagerly asking him this question. "I'm Lachlan Willis.” Lachlan was taken aback by the man in front of him, feeling like he had seen him before but couldn't quite place it.

"Thud!"

As soon as Lachlan spoke, Vincent knelt down in front of Lachlan and said, "Dr. Willis! Thank you for saving my life! Thank you so much!”

Lachlan was confused and quickly helped him up. "What are you doing? When did I save your life?" Caelan laughed and said, "Let me introduce you to Vincent Reid, the CEO of the Reid's Group. His wife had chronic myeloid leukemia that had entered an acute phase and she was on her deathbed. You gave me a few samples of “Love Light," a drug that can cure leukemia. I took a chance and gave it to Mr. Reid."

"I didn’t expect his wife to actually survive and her health has never been better!" Caelan continued. Upon hearing this, Lachlan suddenly realized who Vincent was - the billionaire from Kreanford whom he often saw in news reports.

Vincent quickly dismissed his title as a wealthy businessman, "I'm not worthy of being called a billionaire! Dr. Wills, you saved my wife's life! As thanks for what you've done for us, please accept 20% ownership in the Reid's Group."

He handed over the transfer agreement directly to Lachlan.

Vincent wasn't like other wealthy people with family backgrounds; he built his wealth from scratch with nothing but hard work and determination.

When he was struggling financially at first, his wife stayed by his side through thick and thin while they worked together towards success.

Vincent could never forget how heartbroken she looked when she got kicked out while trying to promote their products during their tough times.

Vincent's success did not lead him down the path of excess like other wealthy individuals. Instead, his relationship with his wife grew stronger. No matter the occasion or media outlet, Vincent always emphasized that his achievements were largely due to his wife's contributions.

When his wife was diagnosed with leukemia and her condition became critical, it was unbearable for Vincent. Fortunately, "Love Light" emerged and saved Mrs. Reid's life.

"I can't accept this!" Lachlan quickly refused

At this moment, Kiera and Betty were stunned by what they saw! Even Lachlan recognized Vincent - how could these second-generation heirs not know the wealthiest man in the state? The Reid's Group had a market value of billions!

And yet here was the chairman of the Reid's Group kneeling before Lachlan? He even offered to transfer 20% of the company's shares worth tens of billions to him?

No one questioned whether or not Erik really gave Lachlan that supreme card in hand.

"Are you... are you really our distinguished guest today?" Betty approached Lachlan curiously and asked a somewhat ridiculous question.

She couldn't believe it! A loser who had just been despised by them was actually the distinguished guest Erik wanted to entertain?

Orion pulled her aside and gave her a signal

But it was too late. Erik had already sensed that Betty's words were not quite right.

"So, you're the girl from the Ellis family? Betty, what do you mean by that? What do you mean by “distinguished guest'?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Betty's face changed slightly and she looked flustered.

Orion and the other rich second-generation heirs all looked hesitant and avoided eye contact with Erik. Even Kiera showed signs of nervousness!

If Erik and several big shots found out about their attitude towards Lachlan earlier, they would have to leave without eating today!

Their task today was originally to accompany this distinguished guest but instead they humiliated him!

This was... asking for trouble!
