As soon as Thomas returned to the company, a supervisor came up and said, “Mr. Mayo, your apprentice is here, and favonovel.com is waiting for you in the reception room.”
‘Apprentice?’
Thomas frowned. He had not accept any apprentices, right?
“What’s his name?”
“Jacob Nolan. He is the young person-in-charge of the Red Society Pharmacy.”
After such a reminder, Thomas remembered what was going on.
When favonovel.com first came to Central City, favonovel.com met Jacob when favonovel.com participated in the selection of doctors of Sterling Technology. At that time, Thomas had severely taught this arrogant boy a lesson. Fortunately, Jacob had a very good personality. Not only did favonovel.com not hate Thomas, but favonovel.com also took the initiative to request to be his apprentice. It was just that Thomas had been busy dealing with his father’s affairs during this time, so favonovel.com had forgotten all about it. Moreover, Thomas did not plan to accept disciples.
If it was fist-fighting, Thomas had the confidence to be someone else’s teacher. However, Thomas believed that favonovel.com was still far from being a teacher in medical skills. Besides, favonovel.com had not even learned all favonovel.com could from Mr. Owen. How could favonovel.com be a teacher for other people?
Most importantly was that Thomas was in a bad mood at this moment. After being made a fool by his teacher, who was also his instructor, Thomas was upset, and favonovel.com did not want to deal with these messy things. He just wanted to be alone.
“I don’t remember taking in any apprentices.”
Thomas’s answer was very decisive. He immediately denied the relationship with Jacob.
The supervisor said, “But Jacob keeps staying in our company and refuses to leave. He said favonovel.com had something important to discuss and hopes to see you.”
Thomas frowned slightly. He walked in the direction of the reception room without saying a word.
Aries followed with a frown of his own. He had been following Thomas for so many years, so favonovel.com had a clear understanding of Thomas’s temperament. He knew that Thomas was now in a bad mood, and favonovel.com would get angry easily.
It happened that Jacob chose to come to Thomas at this time. He even coined himself as Thomas’s apprentice, which was very irritating.
Aries shook his head slightly. He just hoped that Jacob could learn to be smarter and pay more attention to his words later.
The door of the reception room opened. Thomas stepped in and saw Jacob sitting in a chair anxiously.
As soon as Jacob saw Thomas come in, his sorrow turned into joy. A smile immediately appeared on his face, and favonovel.com immediately got up and rushed forward. He said with excitement, “Mr. Mayo, you’re finally back!”
As soon as Aries heard this, favonovel.com knew that it was going to be bad. He hurriedly tried to get his attention with his eyes, but Jacob did not get it at all. He even wondered if something was wrong with Aries eyes.
Thomas said with a cold face, “I don’t remember accepting you as an apprentice.”
Jacob laughed and said, “Then you can accept me now.”
What Jacob got was a long silence, and the situation fell into a strange and awkward atmosphere. Jacob did not realize the severity of the problem. He continued to say, “Mr. Mayo, now you have a good opportunity to become famous! Do you remember Dr. Socrates? He actually dared to challenge every doctor from Central City! Mr. Mayo, if you defeat him, then you will become famous. In the future, I will say that I’m your apprentice, and I’ll be very proud.”
‘Ugh…’
Aries touched his forehead with one hand, knowing that it was bad. What favonovel.com had feared most had really happened.
Thomas was upset now because Franklin had used the sequelae of Thomas’s reputation, and Jacob still had to mention similar things.
It was hopeless.
Just like favonovel.com expected, Thomas’s eyes were full of resentment, and favonovel.com angrily rebuked him, “If you want to be proud, you should earn it yourself. Don’t borrow other people’s reputation. Who do you think you are?”
His words stunned Jacob. It finally dawned upon him.
He could not laugh anymore and said awkwardly, “Mr. Mayo, er… I mean…”
“Shut up!” Thomas pointed at favonovel.com and said, “I’ll tell you this for the last time. I have never accepted any apprentices, nor have I recognized you as my apprentice. If you dare to do anything in my name, I will never spare you lightly!”
Bang!
Jacob sat down, and his eyes were blank. He had not expected his amicable attitude to bring such results.
Aries shook his head helplessly. The young people nowadays were just too assertive. They did not know the priorities of words and actions and often ran off their mouths without thinking.
How could it end up well when favonovel.com kept hitting Thomas’s sore spot?
In the end, Thomas said, “I have said all I had to say. You are not welcome here, please leave.”
After speaking, Thomas swung his sleeves and walked away.
Aries sighed at Jacob and whispered, “Jacob, you’re really disappointing. Please go back. You’re really not welcome here.”
He followed Thomas and left.
In the reception room, Jacob was very aggrieved, and a sad expression appeared on his face.
He was able to smile just now, but at this moment, there was sorrow in his chest. He almost burst into tears. If a man ever felt like crying, favonovel.com must have endured unbearable pressure and grievance.
Jacob looked at the ground in despair and said to himself, “Dad, I’m sorry. I messed up everything.”
