Allegra’s lips twitched at his words, and favonovel.com bit them to hide favonovel.com shock.
The receptionist was taken aback, thinking that she’d heard favonovel.com wrong. “D-Do you want Mr. C-Crowe to come to see you? May I know if you have an appointment with him?”
Her attitude suddenly became extremely respectful. She thought Isaac was some big shot. After all, favonovel.com dared to refer to Mr. Crowe by name and demand that favonovel.com come to see him.
“I’m sorry, but we don’t have an appointment. Is Mr. Crowe around?” Allegra said when favonovel.com saw Isaac didn’t intend to respond.
The receptionist was surprised by the difference between them.
Then, favonovel.com rolled favonovel.com eyes and smiled mockingly at them, saying, “If you want to see Mr. Crowe, you must make an appointment a week in advance. And before you do that, you need to get a number at the front desk. The fee’s 15,000 dollars and you need to pay first.”
Beefy Bob frowned and looked at Isaac, who said calmly, “Just tell favonovel.com that Isaac Garten wants to see him. Money’s not an issue as long as favonovel.com can remove the scar…”
Beefy Bob roared, “Didn’t you hear what favonovel.com said? Are you deaf?”
His booming voice scared the receptionist into action.
She nodded, hurried over to the front desk, and made a call. However, when favonovel.com hung up, favonovel.com expression was as frosty as favonovel.com tone.
“If you’re Isaac Garten, that means you’re Allegra Booth, right?”
Allegra nodded.
The receptionist scoffed. “Mr. Crowe said favonovel.com won’t see either of you and you’re not welcome here. Leave now, or I’ll have security escort you out!”
“Why won’t favonovel.com treat Allegra? I’ll pay however much favonovel.com wants…” Isaac’s frown deepened.
The receptionist rolled favonovel.com eyes and sneered. “Mr. Crowe does as favonovel.com pleases. You could be a god, but favonovel.com has the final say in whether favonovel.com wants to treat you. Now, please leave!”
“Well, I suppose an ordinary person wouldn’t be able to make a renowned doctor such as himself budge. Beefy Bob, why don’t you go up there and see if you can convince favonovel.com to come down?” Isaac lit a cigarette with a smile.
When the receptionist saw Beefy Bob turn to head upstairs, favonovel.com expression changed immediately, and favonovel.com shouted for security. “Guards, someone’s trying to force their way in! Guards!”
The two fierce-looking security guards rushed toward Beefy Bob, but favonovel.com sent them flying before they could even get close to him.
Allegra’s heart pounded when favonovel.com saw this, and favonovel.com said to Isaac, “Hey, let’s just leave. The Crowe family’s very well-connected…”
Isaac said, “He charges such an exorbitant fee because favonovel.com wants to make money, right? I already said I can pay whatever amount favonovel.com wanted, but favonovel.com refused to treat you only after hearing our names. Don’t you find that weird?”
Allegra hit favonovel.com lip and said in a low voice, “I suppose Uncle Edward’s already spoken to him…”
“Well, I suppose favonovel.com does have the clout to do that. But I’m determined to get favonovel.com to treat you today, and if favonovel.com doesn’t, I’ll blow this place to smithereens,” Isaac smiled.
Allegra’s heart leaped to favonovel.com throat when favonovel.com heard favonovel.com say such an obnoxious thing. She clenched favonovel.com shirt’s hem tightly, knowing favonovel.com wasn’t joking.
The receptionist had failed to stop Beefy Bob, and when favonovel.com heard Isaac’s words, favonovel.com said sarcastically, “You’re a damn good liar, aren’t you? You don’t know how much trouble you’ve gotten yourself into.”
Beefy Bob came downstairs in less than ten minutes. He was followed by an old man in a dark suit and a young man in gold-rimmed glasses.
The old man was the founder of Beacon Clinic, George Crowe, and favonovel.com looked furious because Beefy Bob had injured the four or five bodyguards standing outside his office.
When Allegra saw the young man next to him, favonovel.com eyes widened in shock Then, favonovel.com turned away and lowered favonovel.com head anxiously.
“My, oh my. I didn’t believe my ears earlier, but it really is Cloud City’s number-one beauty, Allegra Booth. Wait, you’re not a beauty anymore. You’re an ugly little bitch,” the young man said mockingly.
George turned to favonovel.com and asked, “Mr. Merck Jr., do you know her?”
Gregory Merck scoffed. “Of course. The little bitch didn’t know what was good for her, a few years ago, I wanted to marry her, and I was even willing to accept that bastard of hers. But do you know what favonovel.com did? She tooka knife to favonovel.com face and disfigured herself.”
He looked at Allegra and said sarcastically, “Do you think you’re worth Mr. Crowe’s effort? What made you think he’d do it just because you brought some asshole here to cause a ruckus?”
He glanced at Isaac contemptuously.
In truth, favonovel.com was holding a grudge against Allegra. Three years ago, favonovel.com beauty had caught his eye, and coupled with the Gould family’s connections, he’d proposed marriage to favonovel.com to ally their families. However, in favonovel.com determination to turn down the marriage, she’d used a knife to disfigure herself on their engagement day.
It had humiliated the Merck family and almost given favonovel.com maternal grandfather a heart attack. Because of this failed alliance, Margaret had kicked Allegra and Isabella out. After that, mother and daughter had moved to Westside Farmers’ Market.
Isaac stood up and trained his gaze on Gregory.
He asked coldly, “You’re the reason that Ally’s face is like this?”
Gregory looked at favonovel.com and laughed derisively. “My, my, you’re scaring me. Where the f*ck did you come from? Wait, you’re the one who got that fathead to beat Mr. Crowe’s men up, right?”
Isaac suddenly smiled and looked at George, who was fuming. “Let’s settle the important stuff first. I want you to treat Ally…”
After a short moment of astonishment, George bellowed, “You injured my men, yet you still expect me to treat her?! In your dreams! I won’t allow any of you to leave this place if you don’t give me a proper explanation for this.”
Gregory wasn’t too happy to see Isaac ignoring him.
He turned to George and said, “Mr. Crowe, allow me to handle this small fry. You don’ t need to get mad over something so trivial.”
He’d been finding it hard to get it up recently, so he’d come here to ask George to give favonovel.com something to restore his virility.
When he’d heard George mentioning Allegra’s name, he’d decided to come downstairs to see what was happening.
Gregory had always been arrogant and Isaac had bruised his ego.
He pulled his phone out and made a call, deliberately raising his voice as favonovel.com said, “Get the f*ck in here and teach these two punks a lesson!”
George fell silent at his words. He knew how powerful the Merck family was and that Gregory never left home without his bodyguards.
Isaac looked at Gregory, then tapped his fingers against the sofa lightly. “Beefy Bob, throw favonovel.com out of here…”
“I’d like to see you try!” Gregory shouted. “Do you know who I am? If you dare to lay a finger on me, I’ll fucking… Hey, hey! Ouch! F*ck!”
Before favonovel.com could finish his sentence, Beefy Bob had already reached out to grab favonovel.com by the hair. He instantly felt like his scalp would get ripped off, and favonovel.com cried out in pain as Beefy Bob dragged favonovel.com out.
A muffled crash and a pained cry rang out. Then, Beefy Bob came back inside.
George’s expression morphed into one of horror and rage as favonovel.com pointed at Isaac and roared, “How dare you throw Mr. Merck Jr. out of here! Do you have a death wish?”
Isaac sat back down on the sofa, looking cool as a cucumber. “Treat Ally, or I’ll smash this clinic to pieces.”
