Chapter 34
Felix instantly raised his head and looked at the door.
However, when he saw the woman at the door, his eyes glistened with a trace of disappointment.
He was wondering who could be so outstanding that Earl would ask him to be her teacher for old times’ sake.
Yet, to his disappointment, it turned out to be such an ordinary girl.
There was no spark in her eyes. She did not look like a savvy girl at all.
While Felix was ready to get up and leave the room, the girl suddenly spoke to the people outside the door. “This way, please.”
The next moment, two people walked into the private booth.
That man was tall and straight in build with an extremely handsome face.
As he acted, the man displayed a naturally elegant and noble bearing.
He looked like a powerful man who had been superior to others for a long time.
At one glance, this man was clearly not an ordinary man.
On the contrary, the girl who was standing next to him was dressed in an ordinary way.
She did not even wear any makeup on her face. Yet, despite that, her face still looked rather stunning at first sight.
Gordon did not expect that Marina would actually bring this man here today.
He knitted his brows heavily at once.
“Why are you here?” Felix, who kept a look of great disdain, suddenly stood up and walked to the door.
Gordon’s eyes instantly flickered.
Could it be that Felix also knew that man?
To Gordon’s surprise, Felix directly paid no mind to the man and stood in front of Marina in a hurry.
“Who are you?” Marina eyed the old man in front of her up and down with narrowed eyes.
She seemed to have no impression of this old man.
“You definitely do not remember me. When I was in Froyca, it was my honor to have seen you do an operation. Back then, I was really awed, but at that time, you just left after you finished the operation. I did not even have the chance to say hi to you back then,” Felix said in an extremely cautious and humble manner.
He acted as if he was dealing with some amazing big shot.
What he was doing just struck the three people of the Campbell family dumb.
What on earth was going on?
Why was Felix treating this woman in such a humble manner?
“Oh yeah? I do not remember that,” Marina replied and tried to think back with her brows knitted. She still could not recall such a person by all means.

Upon hearing her response, he laughed happily instead of getting mad. “It is understandable that you do not remember me. I am such a small potato. You can’t notice me for sure,” Felix replied.
His old face was beaming with great joy.
“Dr. Liam, can it be that… You get anything wrong? Do you know her?” Jacob looked at Felix’s flattering behavior and could not help but ask.
After all, Felix always treated Earl in a haughty manner.
On the contrary, Felix acted so humbly in front of Caroline with much bowing and nodding.
This was a bit unacceptable for Jacob.
Felix answered, “How can I get to know Miracle Doc? I’m merely one of her many fans.” He looked at Marina with admiration and then rummaged through his pockets.
He found a black roller pen in his pocket.
Then, he passed it to Marina with his face full of great reverence.
“Miss Bailey, I’ve admired you for a long time. I’ve watched your teaching videos again and again, which give me a lot of insight. This time, it is such a great honor for me to meet you today. Can I have your autograph?” Felix said.
After he said that, he unbuttoned his coat, exposing the white T-shirt inside.
Marina did not know how to respond to Felix.
“Do you want me to sign it on your T-shirt?” Marina asked.
“Yes, yes, yes, just sign it on my T-shirt. Can I have a big autograph of yours? This way, I can take it back and show it off to my friends,” Felix implored. His hair had been all gray, but now, he was like a fan in front of Marina.
What he said and did was filled with great caution.
“No problem.” Maybe Marina had been used to such a scene, so she naturally took off the cap of the autograph on Felix’s T-shirt. She wrote a very big one.
pen and signed her
“Thank you so much! Thank
you very much!” Felix laughed even more merrily as he looked at the autograph.
He even took over the pen that had been held by Marina very carefully.
Seeing his behavior, Marina could not help but think that he would put the pen in storage with reverence after he went back.
Gordon was totally stunned, not knowing what to do.
Even Earl also showed a look of disbelief and astonishment.
“Dr. Liam, are you sure you did not get the wrong person?” Earl’s voice was still somewhat unsteady.
Hearing Earl’s words, Felix flew into a rage at once and then snapped, “Are you questioning me? You must know that no matter how Miss Baily’s face changes, I can recognize her for sure! I have observed her hands countless times. I will not mistake her for anyone even across the distance of 300 feet!”
Simon, who was standing aside, instantly narrowed his dark eyes upon hearing what Felix had said. A trace of coldness flashed across his eyes.
Felix could not help shivering all over right away.
Then, he explained in a hurry, “What I’m trying to say is I’ve watched Miss Bailey’s teaching videos a lot of times. I’m very familiar with the hands that hold the scalpels! I definitely never meant it for anything more!”
When Simon heard the explanation, his eyes became less cold.
Gordon felt as if he had suffered a severe blow. He just kept staring at Marina, who was standing at the door.
He acted as if he had never known her.

After she dealt with the crazy fan in front of her, Marina shifted her gaze to Earl and then said, “Mr. Earl, you did not tell me there would be someone else when you invited me to dinner yesterday.”
If she had known Gordon would be here for dinner too, she would never have entered this private booth.
Faced with Marina’s questioning, Earl choked up and did not know what to say.
Previously, he thought what he was doing was already respectful to Caroline.
He believed that she would definitely thank him a lot, crying her heart out.
However, such a twist happened instead.
Felix was a bit surprised to hear Marina’s words and then asked in disbelief, “What? Miss Bailey, are you invited here by this old guy?”
“Yes, previously, I was requested by someone to save his life. He said he wanted to treat me to dinner in return, so here I came,” Marina replied hollowly.
A trace of surprise showed on Felix’s face as he heard that. Then, he blurted out, “You are the one who cured him?”
“Yes,” Marina replied with a casual air.
“So, you told me that you wanted to recommend a student to me. Is it Miss Bailey?” Felix instantly looked at Earl.
Marina could not help but look at Earl upon hearing that.
Earl’s facial expression stiffened at once.
“Well… I did not know Miss Campbell’s real identity before,” Earl said with his face full of bitter embarrassment.
Felix took a glance at Marina with confusion and then asked, “Miss Campbell? Miss Bailey, isn’t your family name Bailey? Why did he call you Miss Campbell?”
