Chapter 101  The invited guests would undoubtedly receive Marks favor and shower of gratitude .


    Even after all his scheming , Harvey had absolutely nothing to show for it , which left him seething with frustration .


    What angered him most was Andrew , that loser , somehow managed to steal his spotlight .


    He was supposed to be Jayrodales golden boy , the rising star of the younger generation destined for greatness .


    Harvey growled through gritted teeth , Andrew , youve stolen my thunder one too many times .


    Just wait Ill find a way to take you down ! Burning with anger and resentment , he stormed out of the Thatcher residence .


    Just then , Christina called and asked , Harvey , hows Mr.


    Thatcher doing ? Harvey forced augh , trying to keep his voice steady as he replied , Everythings fine now .


    Hes cured .


    Christina eximed in surprise , Thats wonderful news ! But who managed to heal him ? Was it Dr.


    Aicker , the one you invited ? Of course , Harvey lied snoothly , not showing an ounce of shame .


    It was Dr.


    Aicker .


    Who else could handle something ; thisplicated ? Even though his pride had taken a hit , Harvey maintained his confident tone .


    Naturally .


    Mr.


    Thatcher has already called me in for a private meeting .


    Just wait for the good news , Christie .


    Ill talk to youter .


    Sure , go ahead .


    He probably wants to thank you personally , Christina said .


    By the way , I heard Andrew also showed up at the mayors mansion .


    Did you see him ? Harvey sneered .


    Christie , dont even mention that guy .


    He made a fool of himself and got kicked out by security .


    Christina let out a coldugh .


    I really dont understand what goes through his head sometimes .


    Anyway , Ive got to go ! Meanwhile , in the main hall .


    Mark was clearly moved , and he said earnestly , Mr.


    Lloyd , I dont know how I can ever repay you for saving my life .


    Without even realizing it , he had switched to addressing Andrew formally .


    Cedric chuckled .


    Mr.


    Thatcher , your recovery is entirely thanks to Dr.


    Lloyd .


    I didnt lift a finger , so theres no need to thank me .


    Chapter 101 Lauren smiled yfully .


    Oh ? Mr.


    Thatcher actually wants to thank Dr.


    Lloyd ? Youngdy , what are you suggesting ? Markughed .


    Are you implying that my word as the mayor of Jayrodale means nothing ? Leaning affectionately on Andrew , Lauren grinned .


    Well , Dr.


    Lloyd doesnt care much about money .


    If he needs any , I can support him just fine , so you dont need to worry about financialpensation .


    Andrew felt slightly awkward at how bold she was acting .


    To anyone watching , it would look like she was iming him as her own .


    Well then , Mr.


    Lloyd , name anything within my power , and its yours , Mark offered .


    After a moments thought , Andrew replied , When I treat patients outside my practice , I usually ept rare medicinal ingredients as payment .


    Rare medicinal ingredients ? Mark asked , intrigued .


    You mean those precious substances .


    that contain innate spiritual energy and are far more valuable thanmon herbs ? Andrew nodded .


    Exactly .


    Do you happen to have any in your collection ? Mark smiled broadly .


    While such ingredients are incredibly rare and hard toe by , youre in luck .


    I actually have a Seventh Heaven Quince in my vault ! Andrews eyes lit up at this news .


    The Seventh Heaven Quince was exactly one of the rare ingredients he needed .


    He had not expected it to show up here of all ces .
