Chapter 1240 Reuben's Condition "Mr. Reuben, what are you saying? Marie and I are closer than sisters. I've been coming to the Whitman residence to play since I was a child, and you've always treatedlike one of your own.
"I was just worried people would say I was overreaching. Now that the Wray family has risen, I finally feel confident enough not to worry about that," Lynette spoke skillfully.
People tended to value family ties more as they aged, and Reuben was no exception.

Now, hearing Lynette's words, a flicker of emotion crossed his eyes.
Just then, Marlon returned home. He seemed like he brought a lot of news. However, he realized something and stopped short when he saw Lynette.
On the contrary, Lynette greeted him warmly, "Marlon, you're back." Marlon smiled faintly. "Yes." "Marlon, have you been busy lately?" Lynette was trying to fish for information.
Marlon, however, had no intention of discussing work. He merely nodded slightly before turning to Reuben. "Dad, how have you been feeling recently?" "Not bad," Reuben replied. Though in truth, his health had been declining.
Reuben knew that everyone must face death eventually. No one could stay in this world forever as they grew older.
However, his sons were constantly trying to extend his time. Even his bedroom was equipped with oxygen and nebulizer machines.
Marlon could tell that Reuben was merely trying to reassure him. His eyes darkened slightly. "Dad, I've contacted Dr. Campbell from abroad, and he'll be visiting Cascadia soon. I'll do my best to schedule a surgery for you." "I thought it was hard to schedule an appointment with him." Chapter 1240 Reuben's Condition Although Reuben had not left the house for a long time, he was still well-informed about international affairs. "Moreover, didn't he say he wouldn't treat Cascadians? If that's the case, we shouldn't be so eager to flatter someone who despises us." Reuben seemed very displeased as he said that. The older generation was very patriotic. He didn't want Evan Campbell's treatment upon hearing that he looked down on Cascadians.

Isabella Gomez's death was a deep wound for the entire Whitman family, partly due to unspoken reasons related to Marie. For many years, no one had mentioned it in front of the Whitmans.
Lynette quickly corrected herself as she realized the weight of her words," What I mean is, Evan isn't how you think he is There are misunderstandings about him. He just doesn't like the fact that our people can sometimes be too brusque. "You are a distinguished person, so he will surely respect you. You'll change your mind about him once you meet him."
Lynette didn't want Reuben to cancel his treatment. Evan's visit to visit to om Cascadia was arranged by Kenton.
He was a foreign doctor closely associated with the Wray family. Kenton mentioned that if Evan successfully treated Reuben, the Whitmans would owe the Wrays a huge favor.
Then, the Southern Cascadia Chamber of Commerce would be firmly under the Wray family's control.
