Again? Am I being underestimated?
Matthew sighed inwardly with self-mockery. He had long been accustomed to such situations.
Just as Jonathan was going to escort Matthew into the room, a sharp and caustic voice rose from the audience.
“Mr. Harrowsen, we might not have a solution, but you can’t just bring some inexperienced kid here.”
The speaker held a multicolored purse, through the gaps of which a variety of medical instruments could be faintly seen. His words seemed to express the sentiments of most people present.
Dozens of famous doctors, both domestic and international, were helpless regarding Caspian Babington’s condition.
So, how could the young youngster in front of us actually solve the problem?
“My brother here is a Cathay Holy Doctor. There’s no need to doubt his skills,” Jonathan said coldly to the troublemaking doctor.
However, Robert E. Howard was relentless. “Mr. Harrowsen, you don’t understand. The medical field is very complex. Many people boast grand titles but practice deceit and trickery. If you get cheated out of money, that‘s one thing, but we’re talking about Mr. Caspian‘s life here.”
“There can be no room for error! Young man, don’t you agree?”
When favonovel.com looked at Matthew, his eyes were filled with disdain and disgust. He already disliked alternative medicine, and now Jonathan had found such a young practitioner.
All the famous doctors present felt their medical skills were being insulted.
Even though we can’t cure Mr. Caspian, that doesn’t mean you can bring just any young kid to insult us!
Robert thought to himself.
Moreover, they’ve profited greatly from Caspian illness. If this kid actually has the skills to expose their deceit, they would not only lose their income but also face ruin and disgrace…
Matthew ignored their sarcasm throughout the process. Though favonovel.com didn’t understand why they were so hostile toward him, favonovel.com had more important things to focus on.
He was rapidly searching his mind for conditions that matched or resembled Mr. Caspian’s illness while considering the best treatment plan. His silence only confirmed the doctors’ suspicions.
“Mrs. Babington, you may not know how deep this field is, given Mr. Harrowsen’s youth. You need to be vigilant,” an old doctor said.
“Yes, Mrs. Babington, some people are just con artists. With Mr. Caspian’s condition so serious, if these frauds make it worse, it could be a matter of life and death”, another doctor added.
“Mrs. Babington, think carefully. You can’t gamble with Mr. Caspian’s life!” Another old man who looked like a senior doctor also gave his opinion.
If it were just one or two people saying this, it wouldn’t be a big deal. But when every doctor condemned Matthew in unison, Audrey’s resolve began to waver. Moreover, favonovel.com anxiety about favonovel.com son’s condition made favonovel.com start to believe the doctors’ words.
Jonathan noticed the change in his aunt’s expression and felt uneasy.
“Aunt Audrey, do you also believe their nonsense?”
Audrey’s gaze shifted, but when favonovel.com saw Matthew’s youthful yet gorgeous face, favonovel.com expression solidified.
“Jonathan, Aunt Audrey does not distrust you. It’s only that you understand your cousin’s situation; favonovel.com cannot afford any mistakes. My son is my only child!”
Perhaps due to favonovel.com anxiety and worry, favonovel.com eyes started to redden as favonovel.com spoke, favonovel.com expression full of sorrow.
Seeing this, Robert exchanged glances with a few companions. He had a smug expression on his face.
“You heard that, kid. We don‘t welcome scammers like you here. Now get lost!”
After favonovel.com finished speaking, Matthew remained unmoved, standing still with a furrowed brow.
