Chapter 816
Ken Swanson looked up. Quentin Parker said bluntly, “Mr. Swanson, you’re so arrogant. It’s just a piece of clothing. He didn’t do it on purpose. Isn’t it a little too much for you to throw a tantrum like this?”
David Marrow was shocked and quickly said, “It’s all my fault. It has nothing to do with Mr. Swanson. You, you don’t have to worry about me…”
The others did not know who Doctor Mu was, but he had seen Doctor Mu’s true face with his own eyes. How could he not know who Doctor Mu was?
He was suddenly sandwiched between the two ends, and he was extremely afraid.
No matter which side he offended, it would not end well for him!
Ken Swanson looked at the displeased Doctor Mu and raised his eyebrows slightly. He had yet to say anything, but the doctor was already criticizing him.
He would be a fool if he still could not tell that this doctor was deliberately making things difficult for him.
However, this made him feel quite refreshed.
Even if it was Ulric Swanson or anyone else, it would not be good to criticize him in front of so many people. This doctor who looked ordinary in all aspects was actually so bold.
He could not help but suspect the other party’s identity and motive for doing so.
However, the more this was the case, the calmer Ken Swanson had become.
He said calmly, “This doctor might have misunderstood. I didn’t embarrass David Marrow. It’s just that I’m a little obsessed with cleanliness and subconsciously feel a little uncomfortable.”
“Obsessive cleanliness? Hehe.” Quentin Parker laughed coldly and said, “Rich people are indeed different from ordinary people like us. Obsessive cleanliness is a disease of wealth. Ordinary people like us are not qualified to have it.”
Before Ken Swanson could say anything, James Deeds could not take it anymore.
“Who are you? How can you speak to our young master like that?”
Quentin Parker gave James Deeds a sidelong glance.
“Oh, I didn’t know what was good for me. I actually dared to speak to Mr. Swanson like this. It’s my fault. I apologize. I’m sorry… I hope Mr. Swanson will forgive me.”
James Deeds had only heard of women who liked to talk in such a strange manner, but he had never seen a middle-aged man who liked to talk like this.
He was about to flare up when Ken Swanson glared at him.
“Alright, we’re all on the same side. What’s the point of arguing? If you have nothing better to do, go help Melody entertain the guests!”
James Deeds was extremely unhappy, but under Ken Swanson’s orders, he could only bring a bottle of red wine to Nickolas Chapman’s table to toast on behalf of Ken Swanson.
After James Deeds left, Ken Swanson smiled and met Quentin Parker’s gaze.
“Doctor, how should I address you?”
Quentin Parker raised his chin.
“My surname is Mu.”
“Doctor Mu…” Ken Swanson nodded and asked, “I wonder if I did something unintentionally that made Doctor Mu unhappy, so he has some prejudice against me?”
Ken Swanson asked nicely, but Quentin Parker still had a cold expression.
“No!”
Even Ken Swanson looked displeased.
He was not a good-tempered person, to begin with, but because he loved his family, he subconsciously restrained his temper towards Melody Fox’s friends and the employees of Herbathrive.
However, Doctor Mu kept finding fault with him, and his patience was running out.
Ken Swanson’s expression slowly faded. He said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, “Since I didn’t do anything wrong first, Doctor Mu, please pay attention to the occasion. Today is very important to Melody. If you continue to do this and make her unhappy, don’t blame me for not warning you in advance.”
His tone was clear and indifferent, but the look in his eyes was full of warning.
Even Quentin Parker felt that his aura was oppressive.
This kind of aura carried the aura of an emperor. In ancient times, it was fated to be the son of a true dragon.
Apart from his unparalleled medical skills, Quentin Parker had also done quite a bit of research on Ken Swanson Naturally, he could tell that Ken Swanson was not putting on an act.
Moreover, under his deliberate probing, he deeply felt that this kid had patience and his own bottom line.
He was calm and collected when faced with a situation. He would not use his status to suppress others. The warning he gave him just now was also for Melody’s sake…
It was more satisfying than he had imagined.
Alright, he had passed the first round.
Quentin wrinkled his nose and snorted twice before turning around and leaving.
Ken Swanson watched as Quentin Parker left. His eyes narrowed slightly, and a hint of inquiry appeared in his eyes.
In the blink of an eye, he suddenly thought of a possibility, and his eyelids twitched twice.
He called James Deeds back and asked in a low voice, “When you went to Melody’s hometown, you mentioned a famous doctor with the surname Parker… How old is he?”
James Deeds did not know why Ken Swanson was asking this, but he still quickly recalled in his mind.
A moment later, he said, “I think he’s just in his early sixties. Why are you asking?”
“A little over 60…”
That didn’t make sense.
James Deeds observed Ken Swanson’s expression and asked in a low voice, “Do you need me to check this guy’s background? I’ve just asked a worker from Herbathrive. He said that he’s a new doctor called Mu Zi. He hasn’t officially joined yet.”
Hearing that it was a newbie and thinking that his guess just now didn’t match his age, he nodded and said, “Go and check.”
“Yes!”
James Deeds immediately went out with his phone in high spirits.
If he found anything wrong with that guy, he would immediately arrest him.
It had been many years since he had seen someone who dared to speak to his young master like this. He had to teach him a lesson!
After James Deeds reached the safe passage, he made a call and asked his subordinates to investigate Quentin Parker’s background.
His subordinates were very fast. James Deeds had just finished smoking a cigarette when he called.
James Deeds immediately threw away the cigarette butt in his hand and quickly asked, “How is it? Have you found out the background of this Mu Zi guy?”
The person on the other end was silent for two seconds before saying nervously, “Brother James, I’m useless. I can’t find out where this guy came from… I’ve checked him through almost all the channels I can use, but I can’t even find the basic information…”
“What?!” James Deeds’s expression instantly turned serious.
Almost all the people under him were raised by him. Although they were not as capable as him, it was not to the extent that they could not even find the most basic information about a person.
The only possibility was that this guy was using a fake identity.
This was a huge matter.
He just did not know if the other party was here to deal with Miss Fox or to deal with the young master.
However, no matter who it was, this guy had to be captured and investigated!
The banquet was about to begin.
Beverly Herbert looked at the watch on his wrist and said to Colin Herbert, “Hubby, the time is almost here, we should begin. There shouldn’t be any more guests. Let’s go up.”
“Okay.”
Colin Herbert tightened his tie. Just as he was about to hold Beverly Herbert’s hand and go upstairs; when he heard the sound of a car driving over.
“Do we still have guests?”
The two of them quickly stopped in their tracks and subconsciously smiled.
However, when the car stopped and the door opened, Colin Herbert’s smile froze on his face.
Why… was this person here?
What was he trying to do!
