The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection

Chapter 981

"Mr. Marlow, do you not like to drive or sit in cars?" Felix asked with curiosity while he and Dickson ran.

"I don't like that stuff. It's too high-profile. I prefer traveling by foot, unless I'm traveling in a group. And you should call me Dicky or Dickson instead. 'Mr. Marlow' sounds a little odd."

Felix replied, "Sure. How about just 'Marlow' then?"

Dickson gave Felix a funny look. "Interesting. Usually, those who are close to me call me Dicky or Dickson. But you're going for Marlow. Anyway, it doesn't matter to me."

In reality, Felix felt rather awkward calling someone Dicky, due to its association with the modern slang.

"By the way, Marlow, where's the headquarters of Harmony Clinic?"

"It's at the top of Sumera Mountain-rich in herbs. We've gotten the green light from the royalty to build our clinic on that mountain. In fact, we have the right to the entire mountain!"

Felix was surprised to learn that Harmony Clinic's headquarters was not set in Martial City. Still, if Harmony Clinic had the ambition to dominate the industry, it would become a formidable force.
