Fran, stay with your grandfather for now.
Well catch up after the ceremony.
Francesca wiped her tears and nodded.
don’t worry, Kingsley.
I’ll take care of him.
You go handle the guests.
As Kingsley turned to leave, his eyes grew cold.
Natasha, who had been keeping watch from a distance, took the opportunity to approach him.
Need me to step in, darling ? she whispered playfully.
Kingsleys tone was sharp.
Did you see where Simon went ? Natasha nodded.
He slipped away in a fit of rage while everyone was distracted by Cedrics announcement.
Kingsley frowned.
Keep an eye out.
Hes vengeful.
I wouldnt be surprised if he tried to harm Cedric or Francesca.
Natasha chuckled darkly.
If he dares make a move, I’ll flay him alive
She immediately ordered her West End enforcers to secure the area around Moonlit Apothecary.
Just then, another commotion stirred as a group from the Rhodes family arrived.
Kingsley raised an eyebrow when he spotted Tiana among them.
He composed himself and walked forward, greeting them with a polite smile. Lauren, Mrs. Rhodes, welcome, he said.
Lauren returned his smile warmly.
Dr. Baldwin, congratulations! 12 She presented him with a pair of large posters.
Kingsley unrolled them and read the bold words, Dedicated to Healing and Humanity! and The Best Miracle Doctor! Thank you, Kingsley said with a laugh.
He handed the banners to Dylan, who took them to be displayed later
Tiana, clad in an elegant dress befitting her stature, gracefully approached, supported by Laurens secretary, Eunice.
Behind her, Jerry led a security team of elite guards, their presence both protective and intimidating. Mr. Baldwin, looks like you went all out for this grand opening, Tiana remarked casually.
I take it you spent a pretty penny hiring all these people for the show?
Kingsley responded calmly, Mrs. Rhodes, you’re quite funny, Guests like these don’t come just because of money! Tiana glanced around the scene, taking in the notable faces Hmm, Impressive.
Dylan and Natasha, the two ruling powers of Jayrodale, are here.
Cedric and Francesca showed up too.
Even Mr. Thatcher made an appearance.
Mr. Baldwin, you certainly have influence
Lauren beamed with pride and interjected, Dr. Baldwin has a wide network.
He once saved Mr. Thatchers life
Tianas smile quickly faded, and she sneered.
Its all because of Marvins connections
Theyre just here to keep up appearances.
You might not see it, Lauren, but that doesnt mean I’m blind to whats really going on
Just then, a sleek Rolls Royce quietly pulled up by the curb, An elderly man dressed in a distinguished robe stepped out, immediately drawing a stir from the crowd.
Is that Mr. Yates? Wow! Even the wealthiest man in Jayrodale showed up to support Moonlit Apothecary. Yeah, and Mrs. Rhodes from Rhodes Corporation is here top.
This place has some serious backing! Feels like a battle of titans … Too bad for the guy running this place.
Hes just a doctor from Jayrodale General Hospital
The big shots might be here, but none truly care about him, The atmosphere shifted entirely as Marvins presence overshadowed Tianas earlier arrival.
Marvin strode toward Tiana, his voice warm and inviting.
Mrs. Rhodes! Its been a while.
You’re as stunning as ever.
Tiana returned a cool smile.
And you, Mr. Yates, are clearly thriving.
Congratulations on grooming such a remarkable … chess piece.
Hed make a fine successor for Wealthroller Investments.
Marvin blinked, caught off guard.
Chess piece ? I’m not sure I follow, Mrs. Rhodes.
What are you suggesting? Tianas gaze flicked toward Kingsley with a knowing smirk Oh, come now, Mr. Yates.
You can play dumb with Lauren, but not with me.
Marvin glanced between her and Kingsley, his face remaining neutral.
Mrs. Rhodes, you’re mistaken.
Im here today for the same reason as you just to celebrate the opening of Moonlit Apothecary.
Kingsley sighed, visibly annoyed.
Marvin, please make sure Mrs. Rhodes is taken care of.
Lets keep things moving, yeah? His tone made it clear he was fed up.
Tianas penchant for making baseless assumptions and attaching labels to him was starting to wear thin.
If she were not Laurens mother, he might have already asked her to leave.
Marvin chuckled obediently.
Of course.
Mrs. Rhodes, this way, please.
Tianas eyes narrowed slightly in suspicion as she felt something did not add up.
She wondered if she was wrong about their relationship
After all, why was Kingsley giving Marvin orders like that and why was Marvin complying so easily? Hmph
Marvin and Kingsley.
You think your little act can fool me ? Tiana thought coldly as she followed Marvin to the VIP area.
Theyre playing some twisted game, but I wont let Lauren become a pawn in their schemes.
She bit her lip in frustration, her thoughts racing.
The high society families in Jayrodale had always been locked in -subtle battles with Marvin, the outsider turned mogul.
For her, this event was not just a ceremony but another move in that ongoing game of power and influence.
Nonetheless, Tiana was confident that the Rhodes family would not fall into Marvins hand, especially with her
Kingsley had not expected his clinics grand opening to draw such a large crowd.
The flow of congratulatory gifts from different guests kept him busy
Fortunately, Dylan acted as his de facto manager, overseeing the collection of gifts and seating arrangements for the visitors.
Meanwhile, Francesca and Lauren threw themselves into hosting duties
They moved gracefully through the crowd, ensuring everyone had enough food and drinks, their faces glowing with joy
Both women were determined to make the event a success.
However, Tiana watched all this with a growing scowl.
Secing Lauren, the celebrated heiress of the Rhodes family and the citys most admired beauty her own daughter acting like a mere server was more than she could tolerate.
Jerry, Tiana snapped, go get Lauren.
My daughter is not meant for menial tasks like this! Before Jerry could move, Marvin chuckled from his seat ned to her.
Come now, Mrs. Rhodes.
Theyre young and enjoying themselves.
Let them have this experience.
