“Mind your own business. I can come to Bainbridge as long as I want to and none of you can say a word about it,” Billy retorted frankly.
The crowd’s faces went red at his words. “You…”
Billy had always been unhinged. To make matters worse, favonovel.com also had immeasurable martial arts skills as his support. Still, who they were truly scared of was Billy’s master.
At first, they thought that the Bane Family placed Billy’s guest card on the table just for show. They never expected favonovel.com to actually come to Bainbridge.
Nonetheless, they snickered as they exchanged glances once they recalled the feud between Billy and the Nolans. So, they stopped talking and went back to their seats.
Billy scoffed disdainfully and ignored them.
“Matthew, come here. Take my seat…”
However, before Matthew moved, footsteps could be heard from the door.
“Are you Dr. Matthew Larson?”
The question could be heard even before they saw the people.
Everyone straightened their backs when they saw the few elders stroll into the living room as the elders were all elites from Cathay’s Union of Medical Practitioners.
The one at the front was Gustav Bauer. He was Longbeard’s first disciple and a central figure ofthe union.
As Gustav entered the door, everyone stood up and hurriedly approached him.
“Mr. Bauer, it’s been a long time. It’s such a pleasant surprise to bump into you here.”
“Mr. Bauer, it’s been half a year since we met. Do you have time? I’ve prepared some wine for you.”

However, Gustav ignored everyone’s flattery and walked up to Matthew directly.
“Dr. Larson, I’ve been waiting to meet you. Your Reconstruction Pill has truly saved Cathay medical industry’s reputation…”
Then, favonovel.com forcefully tugged on Matthew’s arm without waiting for a reply and dragged favonovel.com toward the CAUMP’s table.
“Come… Come. Let’s sit and have a chat…”
At that moment, Billy taunted the crowd, “Tsk. Tsk. Indeed. Matthew couldn’t sit with you lot. It’ll bring down his status.”
Then, favonovel.com slowly sauntered to his seat.
The crowd stayed rooted to the floor and looked at each other awkwardly.
Before this, they were still ridiculing Matthew and even had the gall to declare that favonovel.com wasn’t worthy enough to sit with them. But now, favonovel.com was sitting in the main guest area with the elders from the union, chatting away happily.
***
In the backyard of the Bane Manor, Marissa sat in a pavilion.
She donned a red dress with silver outlining the pattern and held a golden walking stick. Even though favonovel.com hair was gray, favonovel.com looked zestful despite favonovel.com kind face and commanding presence.
Before her, stood Anthony with a plaster cast on his hand and the rest of the Bane Family, who were beaten up by Matthew.
“I heard Matthew had something to do with your injured arm?”
Anthony was about to answer when favonovel.com noticed from the corner of his eyes that Roxanne, who was standing beside Marissa, was hinting at him.
He got the signal and said, “It’s my fault. This has nothing to do with Matthew.”
After favonovel.com spent some time with Matthew, favonovel.com realized Matthew wasn’t as bad as favonovel.com assumed.
Matthew was handsome and of good character. Besides, favonovel.com was good at both medicine and martial arts. A man like favonovel.com was a perfect match for Roxanne.
Originally, favonovel.com wanted to use this opportunity to say something nice about Matthew, but Marissa shook favonovel.com head at his answer. So, favonovel.com immediately shut his mouth with a click.
“Matthew will be joining the birthday celebration. I’ll know what he’s made of when I see him.”
Then, Marissa got up and walked toward the party with the others tailing behind her.
