Chapter 620 Mr. Drake’s the last student
Before half past six, the banquet hall in the atrium was already full of voices.
It was not that everyone was eager to do industry exchanges, but they heard that the last student of Mr. Drake will come today.
Mr. Drake was a master in traditional and herbal medicine. He accepted no more than five students in his life, which was extremely strict and demanding. However, just a few years ago, he suddenly accepted another apprentice and declared to the outside world that he was the last student.
Since then, no apprentices had been accepted, and the little apprentice who was lucky enough to become Mr. Drake’s last student naturally aroused everyone’s extra interest.
Everybody was very curious about what kind of person could have such an honor. Most importantly, Silvia heard that the young apprentice was not very old, but he was favored by Mr. Drake, yet he was not known to the outside world.
It was mysterious.
However, those who came here were all acquaintances and knew each other well. Of course, Mr. Drake’s last student was not among them, otherwise they would have known about it long ago, so
there was no need to guess.
Silvia had been around for a while.
She had never liked excitement, so she found a quiet corner, sat down with snacks and drinks, and enjoyed the food by herself, and was quite content.
If it wasn’t for the old man’s insistence on letting her come, and that people from the research. institute would also participate today, and she wanted to hear different opinions by the way, and see what inspiration she had for the recent “Innovation Project”, she wouldn’t have come at all.
It was better to build blocks with her son at home. Thinking of this, she yawned.
Maybe she was too quiet, or maybe the place where she was sitting was too much in a tight corner, but no one really noticed her, instead there were footsteps coming towards her.
Silvia was hesitating whether to get up and change places, or continue to sit here, when the footsteps stopped, and a woman spoke.
“Mr. Burgess, just tell me the truth, is the last student of Mr. Drake really Leo Drake?!”
Although the woman’s voice was suppressed as much as possible, it was obviously very anxious.
With a raised eyebrow, Silvia sat down again.
Then an old man laughed helplessly.

“Mrs. Moran, I’ve told you many times, I really don’t know,” the man said.
“Okay, Mr. Burgess, who doesn’t know that you and Mr. Drake have been friends for many years. Don’t you know about this? It’s not something shameful. Mr. Drake keeps a low profile and doesn’t want to make it public. We all understand.It’s just that you know the situation on my side, it’s really urgent. You tell me, I promise not to tell others, can’t you?” Mrs. Moran said to the old man.
“It’s not that I don’t want to tell you, it’s that I really don’t know. Although John Drake and I have been friends for many years, he has hardly stayed at home these years and refused to visit me. I really don’t
know about him, the last student,” Mr. Burgess replied..
After a pause, he continued.
“Mrs. Moran, why do you have to hold on to this last student? Who doesn’t know who it is? Now that the medicine is so advanced, Ms. Miller’s disease is not impossible to heal. Besides, it’s really not possible, John Drake had several other apprentices, that was not a secret.”
The woman smiled wryly.
“Mr. Burgess, stop joking. Who doesn’t know Mr. Drake’s disciples? Running around in those war-torn places, there is only this last student, I heard that he is young and has high understanding, and he has always stayed with Mr. Drake,” Mrs. Moran replied.
“And, he’s in Washington!” Pressing her throat, she whispered.
“We have a banquet today, I don’t know if he will come,” she added.
“Even if he does come, I won’t know who it is,” The old man sighed.
“I think you…” He started to say again.
After interrupting him, the woman said.
“I think if he really comes, we will be able to distinguish him. Think about it, most of us here are familiar faces. If there is someone who has a new face, that person is possibly Mr. Drake.
Silvia wanted to laugh a little, this logic was a bit magical, just a new face? A familiar face was not it? How could anyone tell? How did they know that the last student accepted by Mr. Drake was not
one of their acquaintances.
Shaking her head, she took a sip of her drink. She hadn’t seen anyone from the research institute. coming, so she communicated with her over there, saying that the person who came this time was named Drake, a young guy. She added the number, but the other party never passed her. She didn’t know if she didn’t see him or he had passed by and she didn’t notice.
But it didn’t matter, if she sat for another ten minutes, and the person still didn’t come, you can’t
blame her, and she will leave him alone.
“Mrs. Moran, what you said is reasonable, but I still think that you should not be too persistent in this matter,” Raising his hand and patting her shoulder, Mr. Burgess said lightly.
“Mr. Burgess, you won’t understand my feelings. Although Alaia is my niece, I love her as if she were my own daughter. If Mr. Drake hadn’t left the mountain, I wouldn’t have put my hopes on a young,” Mrs. Moran said clearly. Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
There was a long sigh, and a very melancholic feeling.
“Don’t worry too much, Ms. Miller must be lucky!” Mr. Burgess replied.
After saying this, the sound of footsteps gradually faded away, and it seemed that the person had
left.
Silvia glanced at the time and was about to leave early. At this moment, she heard a questioning.
voice.
“Are you eavesdropping?!” The voice asked.
The voice was not high but sharp, with questioning, only four words, it was full of unfriendliness.
Silvia was confused.
Only then did she see the woman in front of her clearly.
Elegant and luxurious!
Wearing the latest Chanel this season, with gold jewelry on her neck and wrists, she looked at her with dissatisfaction.
To be honest, this face, this look, didn’t go well with that anxious and worried voice just now.
“It seems that you came here with intention,” Pointing to the snacks and drinks next to Silvia, the woman insisted that Silvia took the initiative to come to her side to eavesdrop.
Moreover, they didn’t seem to be talking about anything, they were just discussing the last student.
The woman’s long eyelashes flickered up and down, and after looking at her, she asked arrogantly.
“Which family are you from?”
The guests who could attend today were all from the field of traditional medicine. Based on the principle of inclusiveness, the threshold was not high, but those who could receive invitations were famous and well-known.
“…I’m from the Austin family,” Silvia replied.
Her invitation was given to her by the research institute. She had no family background, and her surname was Austin, which meant she was from the Austin family.
“The Austin family?!” Frowning, the woman thought for a while.
“I’ve never heard of it!” She said to Silvia.
There were only a few well-known names in the field of traditional medicine. Except for Mr. Drake, who had not left the mountain, she was very familiar with the others. She had never heard of Austin, so she took Silvia as an unknown famous newcomer.
“It’s a rare opportunity for you to come to this meeting. You need to look more and ask less, keep your eyes wide open and your mouth tight, understand?” The woman said to Silvia.
Silvia thought it was a little funny, but nodded cooperatively.
“I understand!” She replied.
Seeing that she was obedient, the woman stopped making things difficult, turned her face away, and saw someone walking in at the door of the banquet hall.
