On the other end of the line, Boss Chiao's son, Adrian Chiao, changed his tone. He asked, "Andy Yue? Dad, are you talking about Mr. Yue, who is related to the Yue family in Yudson City?"
"Who else? Why would I be so respectful if it's not him? You better get over now," Boss Chiao urged.
He suddenly sighed when he recalled Fade. He added, "Initially, there was another distinguished guest. He's much more influential than Mr. Yue's. Unfortunately, he's not coming today."
Adrian was curious when he heard that. "Dad, what are you talking about? Another distinguished guest who was much more influential than Mr. Yue? Who is that? Is it Graham Yue, the head of the Yue family? Why would he be doing in a small town like Hamlin City?"
"No, it's not Graham Yue. He's much more powerful than Graham," Boss Chiao replied.
Adrian suddenly burst into laughter when he heard his father. "Dad, you've got to be joking! Why would someone more powerful than Graham come to Hamlin City? How is that even possible?"
Boss Chiao noticed that all the dishes were served and he knew he had no time to chat with his son. He barked hurriedly, "Don't ask so much. Just come over now!"
After hanging up the call, Boss Chiao beamed as he entered the room respectfully.
In the Dawn Hospital, Fade hung up the call and went into the ward to check on Harlem again. After making sure that Harlem was all right, he was ready to head out for lunch.
Meanwhile, Mabel received a phone call. She talked over the phone and seemed surprised. She replied smilingly, "Okay. I'll go and meet you at the entrance."
"Dad, someone's here to see you. I'm going to bring them here," Mabel said as she hung up the phone and trotted out of the ward.
Soon, Mabel returned to the ward with a group of people.
They were all very young and seemed to be the same age as Mabel. They were in their late teens and the oldest was only twenty years old.
The leader was a tall young man in fashionable clothes.
The young man smiled and held a bouquet of flowers in his hands. He walked up to Harlem and greeted smilingly, "Uncle Yang, I heard that you're sick, so I came to visit you."
Harlem thanked him as he accepted the flowers. Harlem stared at the fashionable and handsome young man. He did not know the young man and could not help but cast a glance at Mabel.
Mabel introduced with a smile, "Dad, Mom, don't you recognize him? This is Francis Yang! He's my class monitor when I was in middle school!"
Harlem and his wife immediately recalled Francis after Mabel introduced him to them. However, he seemed different from when they last saw him. Harlem exclaimed, "Oh, Francis! Boy, you've grown so much!"
Mrs. Yang uttered, "That little boy has turned into a man now!"
Several of Francis' classmates behind him began to chip in.
A young man chuckled, "Uncle, Auntie, Francis is doing very well now!"
Another classmate added, "After Francis graduated, he started working in one of his relative's factories. After a few years, he even opened his own factory. He even expanded his business to Yudson City. He's a successful businessman now."
"Boss Yang's net worth probably exceeded one million Yuan. He's not like us anymore."
