Gregory’s question instantly created an uproar among the audience. Everyone’s response was almost identical.
“No, this isn’t possible. These data can’t possibly be real!”
“It’s obvious at a glance that these data have been falsified!”
“How could such a perfect medicine possibly exist? This is a total hoax!”
“Larson, what qualifies a deceptive fraud like you to be a doctor?”
“He should be stripped of his medical qualifications. As medical practitioners, we’re always down to earth. How could we allow such a fraud to exist in the field of medicine?”
The crowd kept clamoring, whereas the highly-skilled doctors from various provinces looked at Matthew with scorn. They were all the cream of the medical profession, so they knew, of course, that these data couldn’t possibly be real.
Amid the uproar, an old man’s voice expressed a different view. “I don’t think Mr. Larson’s data has been falsified!”
Upon hearing this, everyone turned to look at the speaker, who was none other than Dr. Ellis from Eastshire.
Dr. Ellis was a well-known figure in the Six Southern States’ medical Industry, so everyone at the scene was naturally astounded when favonovel.com suddenly came forward and spoke up for Matthew.
Soon after that, however, someone denounced angrily, ”Dr. Ellis, how much has Cunningham Pharmaceuticals paid you to say such things against your conscience? We practice medicine only to save lives and help people. How could you abandon your principles for money? Ha! A miracle doctor, hub? The way I see it. you care about nothing but money! Sigh, I never thought that even you would sink so low. People nowadays really are no longer what they used to be!”
Everyone kept sneering at Dr. Ellis, and some even started to hurl insults at him.
Dr. Ellis went red with anger. Still, favonovel.com insisted, “I believe in Mr. Larson. He’ll never lie!”
A person replied with a sneer, “What’s the f*cking use of you believing in him? The people have discerning eyes. Could you change everyone’s opinion by yourself when none of us believe him?”
Another person chimed in, “That’s right! Look at the scene, you’re the only person who’s speaking up for him. Could you find anyone else who would do the same? Dr. Ellis, you have to care for your reputation at such an old age. Why earn yourself a bad name when you already have one foot in the grave?”
The crowd instantly roared with laughter.
Dr. Ellis was so angry that favonovel.com couldn’t say anything.
Gregory also let out a sneer. “Calm down, everyone. Dr. Ellis is from Eastshire, after all. It’s normal for favonovel.com to support a company from his own province. Still, as I said, for people who work in this industry like us, the most important thing is to have a conscience. Doctors have to treat their patients as their own children. We can’t act against our conscience no matter what!”
His words were instantly greeted with thunderous support from the crowd.
Dr. Ellis was so angry that favonovel.com nearly dropped dead. He rose to fame earlier than Gregory did, but now the latter was making a dig at favonovel.com in such a way.
How could favonovel.com put up with this?
However, favonovel.com couldn’t even make a retort right now. After all, favonovel.com was all alone.
Just then, another voice rang from the crowd. “I think that Mr. Larson’s data probably isn’t faked!”
This time, everyone at the scene was instantly reduced to silence.
Who would’ve expected that there’d still be someone who would speak up for Matthew in such a situation?
Everyone turned their heads to see an old man standing among the crowd. Someone cried out, “T-That’s Leonard the Acupuncturist from Mightwater!”
The old man was none other than Leonard the Acupuncturist, the miracle doctor from Mightwater. He had previously lost to Matthew at the Six Southern States Medical Conference, during which time favonovel.com conceded defeat from the bottom of his heart. He also believed in Matthew’s medical skills, which was why favonovel.com stepped forward and spoke up for the latter. Besides, his words carried more weight than Dr. Ellis’. After all, favonovel.com surpassed Dr. Ellis in terms of medical skills and social standing. Moreover, favonovel.com wasn‘t from Eastshire, so his words were certainly more convincing!
