Ian frowned. "What?"
With that, Mrs. Hunt walked in and smiled. "Ian, I'm here today for the marriage between Justin and Miss Smith."
Ian pursed her lips. "Mrs. Hunt, why would they get married?"
Mrs. Hunt smiled and lowered her eyes. She sat on the opposite side of the sofa and did not have the attitude of asking for Nora's hand in marriage. Instead, she looked high and mighty. "Miss Smith has caused so much trouble and gone to the School of Medicine to participate in some debate today. I heard that Dr. Zabe sent his most capable disciple to the school. I'm afraid Miss Smith won't get any benefits this time!"
Hearing this, Ian and Joel looked at each other, their eyes filled with worry.
Initially, the Smiths had planned to help with this matter. Ian and Joel had many plans to handle this matter.
However, when Nora found out about it, she only told the two of them not to worry. She had a way to stop them from interfering and ruining her plan. That was why the two of them did not make a move.
On one hand, they believed that Nora had the ability to handle it.
On the other, they were still worried.
Hearing Mrs. Hunt's words, Joel said, "Are you sure Dr. Zabe's last disciple has gone there? Is he... the one who treated someone's pulse through a curtain?"
When Nora was young, she had come to New York with Henry. She had once gone to look for Dr. Zabe. Coincidentally, someone questioned the ability of Dr. Zabe's last disciple. Therefore, Dr. Zabe let Nora take someone's pulse through a curtain. His medical skills instantly got their fame back.
Therefore, all these years, although Nora had never traveled around New York, the fact that Dr. Zabe's last disciple had good medical skills was recognized by the alternative medicine world!
When they heard that Dr. Zabe's disciple was going, Joel and Ian became worried.
Mrs. Hunt smiled. "Yes, that's the one! So, I'm afraid Miss Smith is in trouble this time. I wonder if the Smiths have prepared some follow-up public relations plans? We can't let Miss Smith become a pest in the medical world, right? Also, I heard that many people at the school are proposing to remove her from her position as an external professor! If that happens... will she really have to hide overseas?"
Mrs. Hunt's words seemed to be filled with concern for Nora, but every word seemed certain that Nora would not be able to get through this.
Ian frowned. "You don't have to worry about this! After all, this is our family's business!"
Mrs. Hunt smiled. "Ian, I have a suggestion this time. I have a way to let her avoid this matter!"
Joel and Ian looked at each other again. They both felt that there was no way this old witch could be so kind?
Joel narrowed his eyes and asked unhappily, "What way?"
Mrs. Hunt did not sense his unhappiness at all. She smiled. "If Miss Smith marries Justin, with the power of our families, we will definitely not let her suffer in New York!"
Joel and Ian frowned.
Mrs. Hunt continued, "In the past, the two families had an engagement. Now that the two children like each other, our family is not one forget righteousness when it comes to benefits. If we see that Miss Smith is in trouble, we can't do something like trying to clear our ties. Therefore, once Miss Smith becomes Madam Hunt, even if she does something ridiculous, who in New York would dare to rush in front of her and say nonsense?"
She said, "This is a mutually beneficial thing. Ian, you won't reject me this time, right?"
With that, she smiled at Ian. The wrinkles on her face were almost sticking together!
