Chapter 121
Yvonne went over to Harold and pleaded desperately.
She had sacrificed a lot for this family. Besides working diligently to earn money, she had to take care of her father.
She even broke up with her boyfriend and agreed to marry Patrick to treat her father's illness.
Alas, her efforts went down the drain the moment her so-called brother came home.
She was utterly drained and would've sought death if she wasn't responsible for taking care of her parents.
Harold took Yvonne's hands and assured her, “Don't worry, Yvonne. I was the one who got Dr. Thompson to come here. He'll listen to me instead of Patrick.”
“Pfft!”
Everyone else burst out laughing after hearing Harold's words.
“Young man, who do you think you are? You were the one who got Dr. Thompson to come? If you're that capable, you won't be in this state right now,” Alexander mocked.
Hearing that, Patrick was sure that it was his son who had brought Samuel here.
Yvonne shook her head, utterly disappointed with her brother.
She didn't even bother to retort with a sarcastic reply.
Suddenly, a neighbor at the door hollered, “Look, Dr. Thompson is here!”
Everyone turned to look at the door.
Just like yesterday, Samuel strode in energetically with a medical kit slung over his shoulder.
When the crowd spotted him, they whipped their heads around to shoot Harold a smirk. Obviously, they couldn't wait for him to get humiliated.

The Yarrows ignored Harold and hurried over to welcome Samuel.
“Dr. Thompson, I was too busy to welcome you yesterday. Please don't take it to heart!” Patrick apologized with a polite smile before he came to a stop before Samuel.
He stretched out his uninjured hand, intending to shake Samuel's hand.
“Who are you?” Samuel asked, his brows snapped together in confusion.
Patrick froze awkwardly and turned to look at his son.
He assumed Samuel didn't know him as they had never met previously, so he wanted Alexander to make the introductions.
When he turned at his shoulder, he saw that Alexander was gaping in disbelief behind him.
“Alexander, come on. Introduce me to Dr. Thompson!” Patrick urged unhappily.
“Dad, weren't you the one who invited Dr. Thompson here? Why are you asking me to make the introductions?” Alexander replied in puzzlement.
“Didn't I ask you to invite him here?”
Both father and son were astounded.
The crowd overheard their strange conversation and was equally puzzled.
“You're crazy!” Samuel muttered under his breath before stalking away from them.
Alexander and Patrick felt embarrassed as they watched Samuel walk over to Harold.
“Mr. Campbell, I was late. Please forgive me for my tardiness,” Samuel apologized profusely.
He gave Harold a polite bow after he came to a stop before Harold and Yvonne.
