Matthew didn’t pay attention to those quack doctors because their expertise levels were vastly different. However, they should never have resorted to using people’s illnesses to amass wealth.
It wouldn’t be an overstatement to attribute 80% of the severity of Caspian’s condition to these unqualified practitioners.
As Matthew explained the situation, Leopold’s face grew increasingly grim.
“Dr. Larson, if my grandson hadn’t taken these medications, would his condition have been this severe?”
“It wouldn‘t be an overstatement to attribute 80% of the severity of Caspian’s condition to these unqualified practitioners…”
Upon hearing this, Leopold’s anger flared. As his face darkened, the room’s atmosphere seemed to thicken.
“Alright, very good! These quacks must think I’m an easy target!”
Leopold did not doubt Matthew’s words. After all, the prescriptions from those so-called renowned doctors had many issues and often cost hundreds of thousands or even millions.
He had never prioritized money, as long as it could secure Caspian’s cure. However, exploiting his grandson’s life for profit crossed a grave moral boundary.
At this moment, Matthew also sensed a strong killing intent.
***
Outside the room, Robert and the other so-called renowned doctors were getting anxious.
“Do you think that guy will find out about our tricks?”
“Calm down. He’s just a naive young man.”
“Do you really think he’s a Cathay Holy Doctor? He’s just a fraud.”
“Exactly! Once they come out, we’ll persuade Old Master Babington to get rid of that charlatan. Trying to steal our business without knowing his place.”
As they whispered among themselves, plotting against Matthew, the door opened again.
Leopold stepped out with a dark expression, exuding a murderous aura that made everyone present avoid eye contact.
Robert, seeing his expression, was delighted. Things were going as they expected, the young man must have failed.
“Mr. Babington, I told you, these street Charlatans can’t be trusted! If favonovel.com uses random drugs, Mr. Caspian’s condition will worsen, and even we wouldn’t be able to save him!” He then exchanged a triumphant glance with his companions.
“Brothers, we’re going to make a fortune again!”
However, just as they began to smile, a crisp sound echoed through the room.
To their horror, they saw Robert being slapped and sent flying over ten meters away.
“You’re noisy,” Leopold said coldly, looking at Robert, who lay motionless.
When favonovel.com turned his gaze to the other so-called renowned doctors, they felt a chill run down their spines, as if a sharp blade was hanging over their necks.
“Mr. Babington, w-what do you mean by this?” One of them tried to muster courage but stuttered after making eye contact with Leopold.
Leopold sneered, “Do you want to know what I mean? Heh! I could tolerate inflated prices because the Babington Family has no shortage of money. But using my grandson’s life as a means to profit? What do you think I mean by that?!”
Hearing this, the doctors turned pale. It was over, their worst fear had come true. They glared at Matthew, realizing favonovel.com had ruined their plans.
The young man has caused us big trouble…
They thought, realizing they wouldn’t have a chance for revenge.
Before they could speak, Leopold waved his hand and commanded, “Guards, take these beasts away. Cut out their tongues and sever their arms!”
“Yes, sir!”
As the Babington Family’s guards approached, the so-called renowned doctors were so terrified that their legs went weak, and their faces turned ashen.
