Chapter 621 Looking Down on Her

The person who came was wearing a crescent-white local-style gown. Although he was young, he had an ancient charm of literacy and elegance.

As soon as he entered the door, he received a lot of sideways glances, and people he knew directly surrounded him.

“Mr. Drake, you are here!” They said intermittently.

“We’ve been waiting for you for a long time!” They added.

“Mr. Drake, I heard that the recent new project of your institute is very forward-looking? Will we discuss it together today?” another person.

person asked.

“Mr. Drake, are you here alone today, your teacher… isn’t here?” The questions came rolling in.

Mrs. Moran was cautious before, but in fact, in this circle, where there were no secrets that didn’t pass on like wildfire, it had already been spread all over the place.

In private, many people believed that Leo Drake was the last student that Mr. Drake regarded as a

treasure.

Look, both of them have the surname Drake, maybe they are related, otherwise why would he accept such a young person as the last student? And they were so discreet about it, it would be better for Mr. Drake to have a few close friends that most people didn’t know.

The young man stopped, looked at the person who asked the question, and smiled warmly.

“The teacher is doing research in school, and he doesn’t often attend such activities, so I will do it for him,” the young Mr. Drake replied.

The “teacher” he spoke of referred to the mentor at the school, not the person they think in their mouths. Of course those people understand, but if they fall into their ears, it becomes a manifestation of deliberate taboo and guilty conscience.

Why did anyone feel guilty? It just meant that he was the last student of Mr. Drake!

In this circle, there was a kind of admiration for Mr. Drake, not only because of his qualifications

and status, but also because Mr. Drake became famous at a young age, had excellent acupuncture

skills, and had solved many difficult and miscellaneous diseases. It was rumored that the wife of a

certain big leader had been ill for many years and was cured by Mr. Drake.

So many people wanted to seek medical treatment but couldn’t get him, and there were countless people who wanted to be his disciples, but it was difficult for them to even enter the door, let alone access him to worship him.

Under such circumstances, it was a great honor to meet the last student of Mr. Drake.

“Yes, yes, our traditional medicine is profound, and our knowledge is endless. My teacher is a model for us,”‘. The young Mr. Drake nodded in praise repeatedly, and took the initiative to lead the way and exit the place.

“Mr. Drake, please…” the small crowd that had gathered continued to say.

Leo Drake raised his hand as a gesture, and smiled apologetically.

“Sorry, I still have something to do, I’ll discuss it with you guys later,” he said to the small crowd.

After he finished speaking, his eyes wandered around the crowd, and he locked in on the figure sitting in the corner with one glance, and walked straight towards her.

Silvia had finished her snacks and drinks, and a waiter happened to pass by. She took another drink, and just after taking a sip, she saw a person walking in front of her.

The visitor stood still in front of her, and because of his influence, he attracted a lot of attention.

“Ms. Austin?” The other party said. He was very polite, and his words were very polite.

“It’s me,” Nodding, Silvia smiled and said.

“Mr. Drake from the Institute of Traditional Medicine? Nice to meet you!” She added.

“I don’t like to gossip, but, Ms. Austin, do you want to suspend the research of the Innovation Project? Why?” He asked straight to the point when he came up.

“Why don’t you answer my calls?” She asked without answering.

Leo Drake was taken aback, he probably didn’t expect her to answer like this, he hesitated for a while and was about to speak when she interrupted him.

“Don’t use the excuse that you didn’t see it, you have seen it a total of three times since he entered the door. A mobile phone should not be the kind of… you are not part of the people who are not used to using mobile phones,” Silvia said to Mr. Drake.

At first, Silvia thought that he might not have seen it. After all, some people who devote themselves to research may not touch their mobile phones for a whole day.

But judging from his habits just now, this person was definitely not the kind of person who kept his

ears shut.

That meant that he saw it but turned a blind eye, obviously deliberately not wanting to answer her.

Whether to answer her calls or not was his own cup of tea, but since he wanted to communicate, but refused a more convenient way of communication, he appeared as an awkward person.

Being caught in the act, Leo Drake hesitated for some seconds, then smiled slightly. Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.

“I am more used to communicating directly in person. Although mobile phone contact is convenient, it is easy to cause misunderstandings and mistakes because I can’t see you,” Leo

Drake said.

This reason was not new.

“That’s not important, are you really planning to stop this project?” He asked with a serious look in

his eyes.

“It’s under consideration, are you trying to dissuade me?” Silvia asked.

Silvia raised her head and looked at him. This man was really tall, and she was not short, but standing in front of him, he still looked exquisite.

If she hadn’t gotten used to watching Simon, she would really feel her neck hurt when she looked at this man in front of her.

She only mentioned once that if she didn’t know the details of the project and the purpose of the research, she didn’t want to go any further. The research institute was afraid that she would stop, and had persuaded her several times.

This time, Leo Drake persuaded her to give up this idea.

Unexpectedly, the man said.

“No! I just want to say that I hope you don’t think about it anymore, stop it!” Leo Drake said.

Silvia was dumbfounded.

This was the first person from the research institute to persuade her to stop. She, who was about to doze off, became interested, which was a bit interesting.

“I personally feel that this research is a complete waste of time, energy and money, and has not meaning! Besides…” After a pause, his thin lips lifted up, revealing a mocking smile.

“With all due respect, your research has always been in the direction of spices and essences. It hast nothing to do with our traditional and herbal medicine. In itself, it is ridiculous for the institute to bring you in, Ms. Austin,” Leo Drake explained.

He is looking down on her!

Silvia understood now.

No wonder he didn’t have her number, no wonder he supported her to stop this cooperation project, because he thought she was unworthy!

She was just a researcher of spices, how could she compare it with traditional herbal medicine,

which cures diseases and saves lives.

“So that’s what you mean,” Silvia said and nodded slightly, but she was not angry. She took a few sips of her drink from her cup and asked after pondering.

“But I want to ask, do you mean what you said today? Are you speaking the mind of the institute?”

If it’s what the research institute means, then this cooperation can indeed be suspended, but if they didn’t like it at the beginning, why bother to approach her to discuss cooperation?

Leo Drake raised his chin, but was straightforward.

“It’s from my mind,” Leo Drake replied quietly.

“I don’t know how you negotiated with the institute, or what conditions you set out. I heard that

your husband is very rich and is engaged in a big business, but scientific research is not a child’s play, nor is it investing in a movie. It’s as simple as playing a business. I think you shouldn’t meddle

in matters of human life,” Leo Drake said to Silvia.

Then his gaze moved down slowly, and landed on her slightly protruding belly.

“Ms./Austin, you should go home and do what a woman ought to do!” He added.
