The next day, Demi went to buy a shirt that Helen liked while asking Liam to get a few bottles of wine. Then, they went back to convince James and Helen to let them move back. Alas, they succeeded.
For the next couple of days, Demi and Liam had been quiet and proper. After what happened, they no longer dared to float the idea of getting the house from Matthew.
Seeing this, Sasha was surprised. ‘Has Demi finally changed? It’d be great if favonovel.com has!’
As for Matthew, favonovel.com still went to the hospital to work as usual. In the past, favonovel.com was by himself in his office, so favonovel.com could always enjoy peace and tranquility.
Now that Crystal was there, for reasons unbeknownst to him, more patients showed up, but they were all not of any serious illnesses, so Matthew was able to treat them easily.
Eventually, Matthew found out that these patients did not come here for him, they all came for Crystal. They were all youngsters, and to them, seeing Crystal, rather than getting treated, was the main purpose of their visits.
Matthew found it amusing but was not too bothered by it. Even though favonovel.com did not really like Crystal, favonovel.com work performance in recent days had improved considerably. Matthew reckoned that favonovel.com would be happy for favonovel.com if favonovel.com could tone down completely and marry a nice guy.

In the afternoon, when Matthew had just arrived at Cunningham Pharmaceuticals, Julian was seen standing at the entrance.
“Julian, what’s going on?” Matthew asked curiously.
Looking temperamental, Julian responded, “Matthew, are you coming to the alumni dinner tonight?”
Matthew frowned when favonovel.com recalled the time when favonovel.com was in elementary school. He was a nobody in his class because of how poor his family was, and favonovel.com was often bullied.
As such, Matthew had never participated in the alumni dinners that took place every year.
“Julian, I’m not going…” Matthew waved his hand.
Julian quickly responded, “Don’t jump the gun first. I wouldn’t be bothered to ask you if it was just a regular alumni dinner. Ed is coming this time around!”
Matthew’s eyes widened in shock. “What? Ed? I-Is favonovel.com really going to be there? Are you sure?”
Julian nodded repeatedly, saying, “I’m very sure. Leo called earlier and informed me about it. Besides, Ed’s getting married, so his fiancée might also be there! Matthew, I feel like the two of us should definitely be there this time!”
Matthew nodded hard while his eyes turned slightly red. He still remembered that back in school, he, Julian, and Ed were the ‘Powerful Trio’. They lived in the same dorm and even sat next to each other in class.
While Ed was slightly shy, which was completely opposite of Julian, if favonovel.com treated one as a friend, favonovel.com would go all out for them.
Back in the days, Matthew was poor and many times favonovel.com would not have food to eat. As both of Ed’s parents worked, his family was in a better financial situation, so favonovel.com would buy Matthew meals at least twice a week.
Later, after something happened to Matthew’s family, Ed, who had just started working, forked up his hard-earned fifty thousand and gave it all to Matthew. At that time, favonovel.com didn’t even ask for a receipt. If it were not for the fifty thousand, Natalie would have died.
As such, Matthew had always felt indebted to him. However, it was a shame that Ed was sent abroad for work and had not been back for the past three years. At that time, Matthew did not even own a mobile phone. So, gradually, the two lost contact with each other.
As for that fifty thousand, Matthew had not been able to repay Ed. This had become one of Matthew’s biggest regrets.
Now that Ed was back, Matthew would definitely make it to the alumni dinner this year.
“When is it? And where?” Matthew asked immediately.
Julian chuckled and responded, “Tonight. It may start at 6 PM, but I’ll have to get some supplies at that time, so I’ll only be there after seven. It’s at Prosperous Hotel. I’ll see you there then!”
