The previously noisy reception hall suddenly fell into silence as the X delegation arrived.
Everyone unconsciously looked towards the entrance of the reception hall.
Only Emily Parker didn’t even lift her head at that moment, busy stuffing food into her mouth to fill her stomach.
"So uncouth.
How did someone like her get into such a high-level reception?"
Sophie Parker noticed Emily immediately, observing her entering with Master Lowe.
After all, everyone attending the reception was dressed in formal attire.
Emily alone was dressed worse than even the service staff.
"Embarrass yourself, go ahead and keep embarrassing yourself.
It would be best if X Professor saw you and detested you.
Only then will Brother Adam realize I am the perfect match for him."
Sophie withdrew her gaze and, like everyone else, looked at the newly arrived group.
Several blonde, blue-eyed foreigners walked in, and I was smiling at a young man about 30 years old.
Although she knew Adam Willow was a student of X Professor, Sophie had never met X Professor before, who was very mysterious.
Beside him was an official government representative.
Sophie recognized him; he was Father Parker’s old supervisor, Minister James.
This old leader had already reached retirement age; in the dream, Father Parker became the youngest minister in the country after his retirement.
Walking with Minister James, the person must be X Professor.
Sophie considered how she might squeeze to the front later to gain more exposure in front of X Professor, leaving a good impression.
Doctor Reed and Adam Willow were also standing at the front of the crowd.
Like Sophie, they had never seen X Professor either.
Seeing the delegation, everyone assumed the person at the front was X Professor himself.
Adam Willow was astonished, not expecting his future teacher to be so young.
"Minister."
Father Parker, as Minister James’s deputy, hurried to greet him.
Doctor Reed, with a broad smile, approached with Adam Willow.
"Doctor, you’ve had a long journey and must be tired.
I am Lucas Reed from Love & Kindness Hospital. We have previously contacted the institute regarding collaboration."
"Doctor, we are staff from the Carter Clan. This is our boss, who had wanted to meet you for a discussion."
Oliver Ross and Carlos entered as well.
Seeing the X Institute people, Oliver Ross quickly spoke.
Other relevant figures in the medical field also wanted to connect with some of the delegation members at this moment.
Just as everyone was about to speak, Minister James interrupted them.
"Ladies and gentlemen, today is a reception, let’s not discuss business first.
The delegation has just arrived; let’s first welcome them."
With Minister James speaking, everyone reluctantly remained quiet.
Father Parker was very perceptive, immediately having the staff calm the other guests.
Seeing someone as privileged as Carlos getting turned down by the delegation, Adam Willow felt quite satisfied.
As the delegation was about to move forward, Adam caught Doctor Reed’s glance,
"Doctor, I am Adam Willow.
Do you remember me? Thanks to your guidance, my previous paper was successfully published."
Upon hearing Adam Willow’s name, the man who was about to step forward stopped.
"You’re Adam Willow?"
The leading blonde man shed his aloof facade and surprisingly spoke fluent Mandarin.
"Doctor, you remember me?"
Adam Willow was so excited that a flush appeared on his handsome face.
Sophie’s dream had indeed come true; the Doctor remembered him vividly.
The man curiously studied Adam Willow for a moment and then smiled,
"I’ve heard a lot about you.
The Doctor always says you’re a very talented young doctor."
Then he spread his hands,
"I’m not X Professor; she doesn’t like attending such bustling events.
I’m the leader of this delegation, William."
Saying so, he unprecedentedly extended his hand and warmly shook hands with Adam Willow.
William’s action immediately drew the attention of the surrounding guests, even Minister James formed quite an impression on this young man, Adam Willow.
This William was known for his arrogance; besides being a senior official at X Institute, he was also an earl of an old noble family in Country Y, often dismissive even of small country presidents. Surprisingly, he held a young doctor in such high regard.
Could this young man truly be a genius?
Minister James pondered.
Doctor Reed and Father Parker were delighted; they never imagined Adam Willow truly knew X Professor.
The surrounding medical figures were all whispering, curious about Adam Willow’s background. Many already had their business cards out, ready to acquaint themselves with this emerging star in the medical field.
"Boss, what should we do? That Adam Willow is from Love & Kindness Hospital,
and it seems like X Institute is very interested in Love & Kindness Hospital.
Should we..."
Oliver Ross couldn’t help but worry for his boss.
As Carlos’s confidant, Oliver Ross understood the emotional tangle between his boss and Adam Willow. Unexpectedly, the man not only contested for the boss’s wife but also clashed in his career.
As Oliver Ross spoke, Carlos coldly replied,
"No wonder that woman insists on coming here with a big belly,
turns out it was to see Adam Willow."
Carlos’s mind wasn’t on the delegation at all; after entering, he stood, over six feet tall, scanning for Emily Parker’s figure around the hall.
"Boss, you must be mistaken.
The boss lady couldn’t possibly still be pining for Adam Willow.
Maybe she wanted to meet X Professor herself.
It’s said X Professor is young and capable, a prodigy in the medical field.
Any medical professional would admire him."
Oliver Ross tried to salvage the boss lady’s reputation earnestly.
Carlos suddenly felt a tinge of regret; why hadn’t he considered studying medicine when he went abroad?
Suddenly, Carlos spotted Emily Parker.
That woman was skillfully walking towards where the delegation was.
"Oliver Ross might be right; she’s here to meet X Professor?"
Carlos frowned, decided to step forward.
Emily didn’t join the crowd; she thought the truffle fried rice was delicious and planned to get another serving.
A group of people stood in front; Emily didn’t look closely and just took a few steps when suddenly, someone blocked her way.
"Emily Parker, you heard what the delegation leader, William, said just now, didn’t you?
Aren’t you regretting it?
Back then, you abandoned a promising prospect like Brother Adam for a reckless guy like Carlos.
Now look at this, Carlos struggles even to speak to the delegation.
Brother Adam has already earned X Professor’s recognition."
