After getting off work, Hilda didn’t hitch a ride home with Jared but hailed a taxi home by herself.
“What’s wrong with favonovel.com today?” Jared murmured under his breath.
He could sense favonovel.com being listless the entire day, and favonovel.com didn’t speak to favonovel.com either.
Having driven home, favonovel.com got changed, and Josephine came to pick favonovel.com up. A luxurious car idling in front of the dilapidated neighborhood attracted plenty of attention in a blink of an eye.
“Who’s this wealthy lady, and why is favonovel.com here in our shabby neighborhood?”
“Could it be that favonovel.com has taken a fancy to one of the lads here?”
“It’s evident that she’s filthy rich at a single glance, so how could favonovel.com possibly be interested in the lads here?”
A group of elderly ladies was sitting by the neighborhood entrance, shooting the breeze.
Among them was Chloe, and favonovel.com was also very curious to know who exactly the person in the car was waiting for.
However, when favonovel.com spotted Jared exiting the neighborhood and getting into the car, favonovel.com was wholly stumped.
“Chloe, that’s Gary’s son, Jared, no? So, favonovel.com has gotten himself a rich girlfriend!”
“I remember that he’s quite close to your daughter, Hilda. What’s going on here?”
“Young people nowadays are always materialistic…”
The few elderly ladies gossiped among themselves while Chloe rushed home to ask favonovel.com daughter what exactly had happened.
After Jared had gotten into Josephine’s car, they went all the way to the suburbs in Horington according to the location Walter had given them. The area was undeveloped, so single-story houses predominated, and the roads were rather bumpy as well. More than an hour later, they finally arrived at their destination. By then, Walter was already waiting there.
As Jared swept his gaze around, favonovel.com couldn’t quite believe that Walter had a good friend at such a place, considering his identity.
“Mr. Chance!” Walter went up to Jared and greeted favonovel.com courteously right away.
Beside Walter stood a similarly elderly man with graying hair at his temples. However, his aura and dressing were as different as night and day from Walter.
“This is Mr. Chance whom I spoke of, Kieran. His medical skills are unparalleled,” Walter murmured to the elderly man beside him.
As soon as Kieran Snyder saw Jared, favonovel.com froze with disbelief written all over his face. In his mind, favonovel.com pictured a professor or expert over seventy years old, since Walter had revered the person so greatly to the point of addressing favonovel.com as “Mr.” and lauding his medical skills. Thus, favonovel.com never expected Jared to be so young, a mere kid to someone of his age.
“Kieran, Kieran!” Walter called out to the man who had fallen into a trance.
Jolting back to his senses, Kieran quickly extended his dry and wrinkled hand, saying to Jared, “Oh, sorry! Nice to meet you, Mr. Chance.”
Jared shook his hand and inclined his head a fraction in greeting.
“Kieran’s wife is in the house, Mr. Chance. Please look favonovel.com over.”
While Walter spoke, Kieran walked ahead and led the way. Walter walked alongside Jared and explained his relationship with Kieran.
It turned out that they were childhood friends, and Walter had also used to live in a single-story house in the area when favonovel.com was young. Of course, that was decades ago.
He had left after attending school and had slowly gone into politics. In time, favonovel.com rarely contacted his old friends anymore. After favonovel.com had retired and returned to Horington once more, favonovel.com got in touch with his old friends. He then wanted to help Kieran move from the suburbs and buy favonovel.com a house in the city, but Kieran was reluctant to leave. Hence, favonovel.com relented. The two of them often chatted over tea.
While Kieran led a humble life, favonovel.com found it very fulfilling and had never asked Walter for anything.
However, a few days ago, favonovel.com had suddenly sought the man out and implored favonovel.com to help find a skilled doctor to treat his wife.
