Daddy the Miracle Medic novel Chapter 111

Chapter 111 Miranda, Don't Push Me

Vincent personally escorted Lachlan to the banquet hall, and went off to do his own thing!

The hall was filled with high society figures, all gathered in groups of two or three, catching up with old friends or making new ones. There were self-serve food and drinks placed around the room, and overall the atmosphere of the business exchange seemed pleasant enough.

After Miranda and her parents entered, they received greetings from several people. Although Emmanuel had been kicked out of the Lowe family, he still had some connections within Edoland's upper society. Plus, Miranda herself was a well-known ice queen CEO who inevitably drew attention wherever she went. She began chatting with various people alongside her parents.

Lachlan wasn't too fond of this kind of occasion; he only attended this exchange for Miranda's sake. He saw a few familiar faces there as well - Monty from yesterday, Betty's father Anton, as well as Dominic who owned a rival pharmaceutical company to Lowe's Pharmaceutical.

However, Lachlan couldn't be bothered to go say hello; he found an inconspicuous corner for himself and sat down to eat alone. After a while though, while Miranda was talking with a pharmaceutical machinery company executive she suddenly received a card from one of the servers!

"Ms. Lowe," said the polite server handing it over, "someone asked me to give this card to you."

Miranda looked at him suspiciously before taking it from him; after opening it, her expression changed immediately! She hesitated for several seconds before frowning deeply and walking out into the banquet hall.

Lachlan had been keeping an eye on Miranda throughout their time there so when he saw her leave quickly like that he hurried after her.

"What happened?" He asked worriedly upon catching up with her.

Miranda looked at him hesitantly before shaking her head saying, "It's nothing! I just need to use the restroom."

"I'll go with you," Lachlan said, sensing something was amiss in her expression and feeling concerned.

Upon hearing this, Miranda shot him an annoyed glance and said, "Rogue! I'm going to the restroom! You stay here and behave yourself!"

"Um... alright," Lachlan nodded sheepishly.

Watching him return to the hall and find a place to sit, Miranda then briskly walked away.

Lachlan's face showed a hint of doubt, but he followed Miranda secretly while she was unaware and entered the elevator.

After a minute, Miranda walked out of the elevator and arrived at the eighth floor of the Delight Hotel. This floor had several guest rooms, and after making sure no one saw her, she went to room 0811 and knocked on the door.

A handsome young man walked out from inside - it was none other than Frederick, Miranda's ex-boyfriend.

"I knew you would come! Come in," said Frederick with an air of pride as he looked at Miranda.

Without expression on her face, Miranda glanced at him before walking into the room.

Frederick peeked outside before closing the door behind him. At that moment Lachlan appeared around the corner with a mix of self-mockery, heartache and anger written all over his face.

"Is this where you were going to restroom?" Lachlan muttered sarcastically to himself as he watched them enter the hotel room together.
