Eventually, nine out of the ten patients stood up to say that they had recovered while the last one remained seated. However, this was already shocking enough to everyone. Matthew had cured nine patients simultaneously within a few minutes.
Who wouldn’t be impressed by his medical skills?
Crystal and the crown prince felt delighted by this. They hadn’t known how superior Matthews medical skills were, after all.
She shouted excitedly, “That’s great! Who else dares to doubt Matthew’s medical skills? The patients wouldn’t have been cured without his medical skills.”
The crown prince turned arrogantly to Gregory and the others. “Gregory, Tristan, what do you have to say about this, huh? Are you convinced now? You call yourself the great Dr. Huntington, but you are not even worthy of cleaning his shoes!”
He then turned to the other judges. “You there, what are you standing around for? The outcome is clear, so you can announce it now!”
The judges looked at each other with disbelief on their faces. Everyone decided that Gregory would win, yet Matthew had cured the remaining patients in such a short span of time. It was obvious who the winner here was.
Tristan inhaled deeply and announced, “The winner…”
Before favonovel.com could finish, Gregory interrupted favonovel.com loudly.
“Wait!” favonovel.com yelled.
Everyone turned toward him. Even the Ten Greatest Families of Stonedale were staring at favonovel.com in surprise, not knowing what favonovel.com wanted to do. After all, the outcome was already clear.
Was favonovel.com going to object to it?
The crown prince glared at him. “What do you want, Huntington? You wanted a fair competition. Are you unwilling to accept your defeat now that the outcome is obvious? I don‘t mind killing you myself if you do that!”
Gregory said coldly, “I always keep my promises. I agreed to a fair competition, and I will respect its outcome. There’s a problem here, though, is it fair to announce the results when the competition isn’t even over?”
Everyone present was shocked, whereas the crown prince was enraged. “What’s wrong with you, Gregory? Why are you saying this when all the patients have been cured? According to the rules, the outcome is determined by the number of patients cured. The winner is obvious here, so what else do you want?”
Gregory continued coldly, “Are you sure that all the remaining patients have been cured?”
The crown prince replied, “They‘ve said so themselves. Didn’t you hear it?”
Gregory snorted. “Can their claims be believed?”
The crown prince was furious. “What the f*ck? Why don’t you believe their words?”
The rest of the crowd whispered among themselves as Gregory seemed to be throwing a tantrum.
Gregory raised his head and said coolly, “Everyone here is an expert in medicine, right? We all know that the patient’s feelings regarding their body aren’t always accurate. After all, any signs of recovery must be based on a medical diagnosis, not the patient’s feelings. When their symptoms improve, the patient may feel better and consider themselves cured, but a doctor might only consider it an improvement in symptoms, not a complete recovery.”
