Chapter 149 The Intimate Hug The words "You might get it for free, but not everyone else," echoed in Dalton's mind.

Dalton's typically cold expression softened ever so slightly.

"No problem," Dalton responded. His usual imposing demeanor softened in response to Wynter's words. “Max, pay up," Max nodded and immediately pulled out his bank card.

"Max, increase the amount," Dalton said calmly, yet his authority remained palpable.

Wynter glanced at him before redirecting her focus to the compliant Max. "Are you two friends?" she inquired, Dalton didn't hide the truth. "He's a colleague from another office." Max quickly adjusted his posture and said, “We're colleagues from the branch office." Wynter didn't seem bothered. "We can't take credit cards yet, but online payments work. Just scan this code." Max shifted his gaze toward Dalton. He asked, "How much should I pay?" "Do you have to consult your friend about how much you should pay for treatment?" Wynter chuckled.

Max promptly paid ten thousand dollars. He believed it was a reasonable amount for medical expenses.

Wynter raised an eyebrow at the transaction. "You should bring in more friends like him next time." Despite what she said, Wynter refunded nine thousand nine hundred dollars to Max. She then tapped on the promotional board. "Bone alignment is just one hundred dollars." Max was astonished. "Just one hundred dollars?" As a Frendan, Max found this quite unusual.

Back in his hometown, even basic antibiotics at a local pharmacy cost several hundred dollars.

"Oh my, that's so affordable!" Max exclaimed.

As they bid farewell to their neighbors, Margaret, who had just arrived, wondered what was happening. "Wynter, is he in pain after the treatment? That doesn't seem right," Margaret asked.

"He's marveling at the traditional medical knowledge passed down through generations," Wynter explained.

As Wynter reached for Margaret's shopping basket, Margaret stopped her with a raised hand, "You tally up today's earnings and see if we need more supplies. I'll have a talk with your boyfriend," Margaret instructed. Max was stunned. He wondered when Dalton had becher boyfriend.

Wynter realized her earlier fib wasn't so smooth after all.

Her usual mischievous expression faltered, and she attempted to explain herself.

Then Dalton's pleasant voice chimed in, "Of course, Grandma." Max's jaw dropped, and his expression tically shifted.

But then again, it wasn't surprising. Dalton had never really shown much interest in women. Socialites or actresses, there were always plenty of people chasing after Dalton's attention. During Dalton's recent inspection trip to Frenda, even Princess Savannah had shown interest in hìm.

Yet, Dalton gracefully declined the princess and mentioned he already had a girlfriend.

Before this, Max had always dismissed it as an excuse. If Dalton truly had a girlfriend, how could Theo not be aware? Max glanced at Dalton and then at Wynter. If this news got out, it would cause a stir.

Wynter didn't worry about Max's view of their relationship. She smiledm lightly and said, Grandma, what do you bu want to talk to him about? If you have any questions, just ask me."

"If I ask you, will you be honest with me?" Margaret was sharp"Furthermore, sinde he's here in our house; isn't it only fair for him to have a chat withfirst?" Dalton reached out and pulled
