“So, Uncle Duane, what do you think of Dustin’s medical skills? Are you impressed?” Natasha asked


    with a smirk, evidently proud. After all, this was the man she had taken a liking to.


    “Who knew that a single pill could work such wonders?” Duane’s eyes lit up as he said. “Rhys, may I


    know what this pill is? Can I have a few more? I’ll pay for it. Just name your price!”


    I


    *This is Gemiphen. It’s a confidential prescription. And because the ingredients are too valuable, the pill


    that you just had was my only one,” Dustin replied, aloof.


    “That’s okay, just sell me the prescription then.” Duane was not one to give up easily. He was a tycoon


    in the medical industry. He knew how immensely precious such miraculous medicines are. If he could


    manufacture them in bulk, he would have struck gold!


    “I told you, the prescription is confidential. There’s no way I’m selling it.“Dustin stopped himself before


    he continued, “Of course, if you could find me another rare herb, I can give you the prescription for the


    Gemiphen. No charges.”


    “Well…” Duane appeared reluctant. It was hard enough to get him the aged Panax root. How much


    harder would it be to get the ancient Heliotrope? As for the Gozoraberry, the flower of Crimson Gem,


    and the Cherusia, he had never even heard of them, much less know where to get them.


    “There’s no rush, Uncle Duane. We can continue discussing this after we get the Panax root.” Natasha


    smiled


    as she rubbed her stomach. “I’m suddenly feeling quite hungry, Uncle Duane. Why don’t we go for a


    meal at


    Hillview Restaurant? You can also transfer the ownership of the hotel to Dustin while we’re there.”


    Duane’s eyelid twitched. This was one impatientdy! Though it pained him to do so, there was nothing


    else


    Duane could do other than agree. After all, he had made a promise, and he couldn’t very well go back


    on it. So, after some small talk, they made their way to Hillview Hotel.


    Hillview Hotel was situated in an excellent location, right by Lake Vestine. It was famous for its rooftop


    restaurant, which was Hillview Restaurant. Because of its geographical advantage, it had an


    extraordinary view overlooking half of Swinton. The night view was particrly breathtaking. With


    exemry service and exquisite food, it was no wonder that Hillview Restaurant was patronized by


    many of the rich and famous.


    Furthermore, they only served VIPs, so regr folk were not allowed to set foot there.


    Once they reached Hillview Restaurant, the three got a private room to themselves and ordered some


    of the signature dishes. They soon began to dig in.


    Meanwhile, a Mercedes–Benz SUV stopped in front of the main entrance to Hillview Hotel. The car

    opened and Florence stepped out of the car.


    “Matt, Hillview Restaurant is a wonderful ce. Since you’ve helped us out so much, I’ll treat you to a


    nice dinner today. Dahlia will be here soon. She’s on her way. Let’s head in without her.” Florence led


    Matt and James into the hotel, but when they reached the highest floor, they were stopped by a waiter.


    “I’m sorry, I’m afraid you can’te in.”


    “What? We’re not allowed to enter?” James red at the waiter, displeased. “Do you know who we


    are? How


    dare you stop me?”

    “You’re running a business here! Aren’t you supposed to serve guests? What do you mean we can’t go


    in? Who are you to look down on us?” Florence asked mastily.


    They had anticipated having a good meal there, but they ended up being denied entry. Peeved was an


    understatement.


    “My apologies, but we only serve VIPS,” the waiter answered respectfully.


    “What’s so great about a VIP? We’ll just apply to be a VIP then!” Florence scoffed.


    “May I please know if you’re applying for a regr VIP or a Deluxe VIP?” the waiter asked with a smile.


    “Of course we’re going for the Deluxe VIP! Do we look like we can’t afford it?” James asked arrogantly


    as he lifted his chin.


    “Yes, we only go for the best!” Florence whipped out her card.


    Matt was watching them. She couldn’t afford to embarrass herself in his presence.


    “Sure. You’ll have to put in a deposit of five million dors for the Deluxe VIP.” The waiter was still


    smiling.


    “What? Five million?”


    Both Florence and James were bewildered when they heard what the waiter said. Florence, who had


    her card in her hand, immediately withdrew her hand.
