Tom Schmid hurriedly explained with a terrified expression, "Come on, we all know that our family hasn't had any breakthroughs in technology. Our research in all aspects can't compare to the other families. Madam Geng, you've misunderstood us!
"Actually, we haven't attended in person for the past two years because my wife and I were infected with a strange illness. We were afraid that it would spread to everyone, so we didn't come. Our family's medical skills are lagging. It was only this year that we completely cured our illness," Tom Schmid explained very sincerely.
"No wonder Tom looks so pale. You should tell us if you're sick. Perhaps we could have helped you."
"That's right. The Haus family is very knowledgeable in all kinds of illnesses."
Just like that, all was forgiven. The other families expressed their sympathies to Tom Schmid. They believed him.
However, Charleston and Jesse were looking at the Schmid couple with extreme caution!
