The atmosphere of the banquet reached an all-time high thanks to Jack’s speech, and all the attention was now on him.
Even those who hadn’t joined him and the other doctors previously had long heard rumors about how exceptional he was in both wisdom and elegance.
There were some among the crowd who were initially unconvinced given how much younger Jack was compared to them, but they had still chosen to show up since he was a member of the Damaris family.
Yet, they now finally began to let go of their preconceived judgments after hearing what he had to say. They also felt increasingly assured about the two young doctors sitting next to him.
He doesn’t look like the kind who’ll let them sit next to him just because he’s close to them. “On another note, I apologize for my oversight. Allow me to re-introduce these two seated next to me.”
Jack’s voice rang out again in the midst of the audience’s puzzlement.
Everyone’s gazes then fell on Roxanne and Larry once more.
The two of them eyed Jack instead, unsure of what he was about to say. The latter flashed them a smile before turning to the audience.
“All of you seated here are basically taking part in the project initiated by my family’s research institute. This lady next to me is Roxanne Jarvis. Dr. Jarvis is an exemplary student of Professor Harvey Lambert. She came back to Chanaea under his advice to manage VR Research Institute, and she’ll also be one of the few working with the Damaris family this time around.”
Then, Jack began to introduce Larry.
“I’m sure you’ve all heard of Dr. Larry Morrison. Not only is he the heir of the Morrison family, but he’s also made great accomplishments in the field of medicine. and is known for this internationally. With his participation, we’ll be receiving financial support from the Morrison family too.”
As soon as Jack’s words fell, all the doubt in the crowd’s eyes vanished and was now. replaced with astonishment and veneration. While not many people had heard of Roxanne, Harvey was considered at legend.
The fact that he had asked this student of his to manage a research institute on her own showed how highly he regarded her. That was also a testament to her abilities.
As for Larry, most members of the audience had heard of him but had never had the chance to see him in person.
No one had expected two youngsters who looked like they came from distinguished backgrounds to possess such capabilities.
It’s no wonder even Dr. Hopp asked for her advice!
Yet, Roxanne and Larry had no intention of showing off, and they remained humble in the face of all these elders.
When Jack was done introducing them. the two stood up and addressed the crowd, “I hope we can all get along, and please feel free to correct us if we make any mistakes.”
The other doctors sighed in amazement at their modesty.
“I had the privilege of working with them during the previous consultation, and I dare say that the future of medicine in Chanaea sure looks promising with people like them around!”
As the person who had spent the longest time with Roxanne and Larry, Daniel couldn’t help but rise and speak up for them in admiration.
The crowd nodded in agreement.
“Dr. Jarvis, Dr. Morrison, please excuse my rudeness from before. I hope you won’t take it to heart,” someone apologized. The two youngsters beamed. “Not at all! We’re young, so it’s only natural that you have your doubts.”
