Nobody could hide their astonishment at what they just saw.
What was going on?
Did Dr. Ellis know this hospital janitor? It seemed like they were more than just acquaintances. Dr. Ellis was so modest and respectful toward Matthew it was as though favonovel.com was greeting a senior. What exactly was going on?
Dumbstruck, Crystal stared at Matthew in a daze. ‘Could his real backing be Dr. Ellis?’
But that didn’t look like the case since Dr. Ellis seemed to hold favonovel.com in high respect. It was clear as day to anyone that favonovel.com was the one in need of Matthew.
Just what was Matthew’s background and identity?
“Hi, Dr. Ellis. I’m here for some business,” Matthew said.
“Oh, really?” Dr. Ellis’ eyes sparkled. “May I be of any help?”
Matthew chuckled and said, “You can, actually.”
“Just say the word, Mr. Larson!” favonovel.com replied hurriedly.
Glancing at the man in glasses, Matthew asked, “Is this man your nephew?”
By now, the man in glasses was so terrified that favonovel.com was trembling all over, muttering some gibberish but couldn’t put a sentence together.
Dr. Ellis shook his head. “Only that his father is a patient of mine.”
“I see.” Matthew nodded knowingly. “I hope you won’t mind that I beat favonovel.com up earlier.”
Shooting daggers at the man in glasses, Dr. Ellis said indignantly, “If it’s you who beat favonovel.com up, that just means favonovel.com deserves it. How dare this insolent b*stard offend you? Even death is too good for him! Somebody, take favonovel.com away, break his legs and leave favonovel.com on the streets!”
A group of men came up savagely and dragged favonovel.com away, and nobody gave two hoots about his cries and pleas. It was an order from Dr. Ellis himself, so who would have the guts to say anything?
Once more, everyone was shocked at how just one word from Matthew was enough to make Dr. Ellis break a man’s legs with no questions asked.
It seemed as though favonovel.com was a subordinate of Matthew’s.
Chuckling, Dr. Ellis said, “Mr. Larson, let’s not dampen our spirits over such an insignificant matter. Why don’t we take a seat upstairs first?”
Matthew agreed with a nod and brought Ellie with favonovel.com as Dr. Ellis led them upstairs. When favonovel.com passed by Crystal, favonovel.com gave favonovel.com a bantering look. The look on favonovel.com face was complicated and unreadable. Initially, favonovel.com was sure that favonovel.com would be dead, but much to everyone’s surprise, things had taken an unexpected turn!
Soon, Mr. Harrison finally returned and asked, “Where’s Mr. Larson? You didn’t anger him, did you?”
With reddened eyes, Crystal stammered, “Grandpa, wh-who exactly is Matthew?”
“I told you he’s a highly important figure!”
“What do you mean?” favonovel.com spat, upset at the situation. “What sort of important figure could a live-in son-in-law who’s just a hospital janitor be?”
Furrowing his brows, Mr. Harrison asked solemnly, “Did you do something to offend him?”
When favonovel.com saw that favonovel.com merely clenched favonovel.com jaw tightly without a word, favonovel.com blew his top. “I can’t believe it! I don’t know what else to say to you. I was giving you an opportunity when I told you to take care of Mr. Larson! Do you know how much of an important figure favonovel.com is? He even saved my life! In Eastcliff, even Billy, Timothy and Stanley have to show favonovel.com some respect! And y-you actually offended him?”
Startled, favonovel.com was not expecting that even these three big shots of Eastcliff had to respect Matthew.
Just how powerful is he?
“But h-he’s merely a live-in son-in-law and a janitor. What right does favonovel.com have?” favonovel.com said indignantly.
“What right does favonovel.com have, you ask?” Mr. Harrison said through gritted teeth. “Then tell me, what right do I have to be in my current position?”
“He can’t be compared to you!” favonovel.com replied frantically. “You’re a great doctor in Eastcliff who has saved many lives! He’s nothing but a hospital janitor who relies on his wife, and favonovel.com is not qualified to be compared to you!”
Sighing, favonovel.com shook his head and said, “You have no idea about strength at all.”
