"Elkton University has its own rules. Mr. Moore, you don't have to worry. I'll tell Mr. Jepherson about this later. There's something wrong with Scarlette's knee, so we're here to seek treatment from Dr. Osteen. I believe that the school would still accommodate Mr. Jepherson in such a matter." Although Stuart did not speak often, he was not mute. He was observant, and there were some things that he would still say.
Flynt's expression darkened. "What's wrong? Is there no one left in the Richards family that they need a servant to talk to me?"
Stuart knew that no matter what, he had to consider Santiago and Cynthia. Hence, he could not speak as he wished in front of Flynt. Their difference in status was too big for that.
He immediately answered, "Apologies for my ignorance. Please don't mind me, Mr. Moore."
Raeleigh's brows twisted together as she saw this. Even she could not stand it anymore as she had never seen someone so unreasonable. Stuart did not owe Flynt anything.
"Stuart, you may leave now. I'll inform Mr. Santiago of this matter lest someone pick on you," she interrupted. Stuart still listened to her, and he left without a word.
However, when he went out, he called Santiago. Although he was under their employment, he was no ordinary servant. To put it bluntly, not just anyone can talk to him or have him at their beck and call.
Stuart put down the phone, stood outside, and kept listening in.
"You're Flynt Moore?" Xanthus asked as he watched Stuart leave. He knew Flynt did not like him from his first impression. Moreover, Scarlette was asleep, and only he and Raeleigh were together alone in a room. What in the world could happen?
"With pleasure. Do you know me, Dr. Osteen?" Flynt took a look at Raeleigh, pulled out a chair, and was ready to sit down. Xanthus told him, "I know of you, but I don't know you. I just heard someone mention that you are Mr. Moore, so I took a guess. What are you here for?"
"Can't I just come to visit my friends? Must there be a reason?"
"No. However, I need to attend to patients who need my help. If you're not here for treatment, then you can leave and meet your friends outside. I don't have time to ask you about this."
"It's not my business whether you have time or not." Flynt turned around and looked at Raeleigh. "Come out. I have something to tell you about Deanna."
Raeleigh froze for a moment. Something about Deanna?
"Do you really know where Deanna is?" She stood up at once. Even Stuart, who was listening outside, was secretly concerned. How could he find out Deanna's whereabouts so easily?
If so, then why didn't he go to Zorion and take credit for it? If Flynt could help Zorion in this matter, then he would have a good life in the Moore family in the future.
"If you believe me, then follow me. If you don't, then forget it. I can do you a favor and pretend that I don't know anything. It's best for the Moore family not to intervene in this matter," Flynt explained bluntly. Raeleigh took a look at Xanthus, who was standing by the side, deep in thought. Then, after a while, she walked out. "Dr. Osteen, Scarlette is still unconscious. I'll go out for a moment. If she's awake, then tell her that I went to the bathroom and will be back soon."
"Rae..." Xanthus had already regarded her as his younger sister and almost called out her name. If Flynt had not been present, then he would not have hesitated.
He stopped in time. "It's better to have Stuart to follow you."
Flynt sneered. "As a doctor, what more a university doctor, aren't you going beyond your job scope?"
"It's alright, I'll be fine. Mr. Moore is bringing me along in front of so many people. I believe that if something happens to me, then Mr. Moore will not be able to forgive himself either."
Raeleigh's words had hidden meaning behind them. No matter what, Flynt would not be so foolish as to harm Raeleigh. If not, then Jepherson and Santiago would deal with him as well.
Flynt cared about Cynthia, so it was possible to get out of the way, which was something Raeleigh could see clearly. Since it was so, it meant that he would not do anything stupid to hurt her.
