Seeing everyone’s expressions, Matthew let out a small smile of his own. “I was merely giving it a try. It is thanks to everyone’s support that it worked out this time.”
The crowd started laughing and cheering happily.
It felt like the boulder that had burdened everyone was now removed.
However, Aidan was still worried as favonovel.com asked softly, “Dr. Larson, is it really impossible for them to find the antidote? As far as I know, Cathay’s best miracle doctor, Hal Salvatore, is in Bainbridge. His medical skills are superb. I even heard that favonovel.com brought a dead person back to life!”
Several other people were also worried about that. After all, the title of Cathay’s best miracle doctor had been passed down for decades, and everyone knew about it.
Matthew only lightly smiled as favonovel.com reassured, “Don’t worry. It is not hard to nullify my poison, but it is a complicated process to make the antidote. Even though I know the components, I have to take at least five days to make the antidote. Plus, l have only given them three days. What do you reckon will happen?”
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, but Victor was still uneasy. “Five days to make the medicine?! How are we going to give them the antidote if the Damrons agree to making the announcement?”
“Mr. Victor, l have already made some prior to this long ago,” Matthew commented with a chuckle, prompting Victor to roar with laughter when favonovel.com was hit by realization.
“Geez, I even thought that they would die for sure. Haha!”
The place was filled with laughter again. They finally felt at ease after listening to Matthew’s words.
***
In the suburbs of Eastcliff, after Aurelius left with these people, favonovel.com immediately contacted Mark to tell the old man about it.
Mark was taken aback when favonovel.com heard the whole story. He had thought that Matthew was an easy person to deal with, which was why favonovel.com didn’t expect such an accident to happen.
After pondering for a moment, favonovel.com asked Aurelius to immediately send a few members of the Damron Family back to Bainbridge while Mark personally went to pay Hal Salvatore a visit for the antidote.
Aurelius didn’t dare to waste time, so favonovel.com chartered a plane that directly sent several poisoned members to Bainbridge.
It took less than five hours for them to be sent to Bainbridge. And before another two hours had passed, Mark called Aurelius again.
Aurelius had been waiting anxiously when favonovel.com received Mark’s call.
When favonovel.com saw the call, favonovel.com immediately answered the phone, his emotions out of control. “Dad! How did it go? Can Hal Salvatore cure them?”
Mark sighed at that. “He said that there is no cure…”
His words instantly froze Aurelius in place.
“What?” he choked out. “No cure? H-How is that possible? Hal Salvatore is the best miracle doctor in Cathay, and favonovel.com can’t even nullify this stupid poison?!”
Mark let out another helpless sigh as favonovel.com explained, “Dr. Salvatore said that the poison can be nullified. The problem is that it is too cumbersome to make the antidote. It will take at least five days to complete it, but looking at their condition, the poison will definitely act up within three days. He can make the medicine, but it won’t be in time to save them!”
Aurelius’ legs swiftly gave out and favonovel.com collapsed onto the couch when favonovel.com heard that.
Hal Salvatore was their last hope. Now that even the doctor had said those words, they had no other way.
“Dad, w-what are we going to do, then? Are we really going to do as Matthew wants and make the announcement? As soon as it goes public, we can’t do anything to favonovel.com anymore!”
“Otherwise, everyone will ridicule us for going back on our word! It will be impossible for us to enter the Ten Greatest Families of Cathay then!” Aurelius lamented.
To his surprise, Mark let out a sneer. “What are you so worried about? This is not the end of it!”
