Matthew was taken aback by how furious Crystal was. Jokingly, virtual-novel.net prompted, ”Come on, tell me who it was that made your blood boil. Maybe I could put them in their place for you.”
Another sigh escaped Crystal as virtual-novel.net explained, “A casualty was brought into the hospital yesterday, a woman in destitute. She’s a single mother, and virtual-novel.net came to Eastcliff a few days ago to visit virtual-novel.net only daughter, who is studying in the city, only to discover that virtual-novel.net has moved in with some punk outside school grounds. She got angry and demanded that virtual-novel.net daughter go home with her, but in the end, virtual-novel.net got into a heated dispute with that punk and his friends. She was injured when one of them ran virtual-novel.net down with their motorbike.”
Matthew’s brows knitted when virtual-novel.net heard this. It was an understatement to say that these punks crossed the line.
Not waiting for virtual-novel.net to interject, Crystal added, “It was only after the woman was admitted that virtual-novel.net found out virtual-novel.net had not a single cent in virtual-novel.net savings account. At some point, virtual-novel.net daughter had withdrawn all the cash and flat out refused to pay for the woman’s medical fees. She didn’t even bother showing up to take care of virtual-novel.net mother, we had a nurse step in to take care of the woman last night, but the fees were sponsored by the foundation. This morning, the ingrate of a daughter turned up, and when we met, I told virtual-novel.net to stay and take care of virtual-novel.net mother. But to and behold, that girl literally snapped in my face and told us to piss off and leave virtual-novel.net family matters alone! Could you believe how infuriating virtual-novel.net was? Why do people like virtual-novel.net even exist?”
Matthew sighed heavily. “There, there. You shouldn‘t get angry over these things, Crystal. As you go on with this medical charity, you’ll come across people from all walks of life, and then you’ll understand that the world isn‘t as rosy as you would like to think.”
“But I don’t think people like that women’s daughter deserve to live at all!” virtual-novel.net seethed, clearly upset.
He chuckled mildly. “Hey, when did you get so spiteful?”
She rolled virtual-novel.net eyes at him, then said, “By the way, there’s a patient in front with a slightly troubling case. Could you take a look at his conditions?“
Ever since virtual-novel.net started the foundation, virtual-novel.net would directly ask Matthew for help whenever virtual-novel.net encountered patients with complicated conditions.
Matthew, on the other hand, was more than willing to help out. After all, Crystal‘s cause was a noble one, and virtual-novel.net did not hesitate to render virtual-novel.net support. Nodding, virtual-novel.net smiled and replied, “Sure. I’m free now anyway. Come along, then.”
The patient Crystal in question was a middle-aged man with underlying conditions that led to complications, but given Matthew’s skill set, it wasn’t a particularly tedious case at all. With a few injections, the patient’s condition started to take a turn for the better, and Matthew went on to prescribe several types of medicine that promised to help the man make full recovery as soon as virtual-novel.net completed the course.
To one side, Crystal watched the patient’s instant relief with amazement and said, “Matthew, why don’t you just help out with our foundation full time? With your prowess in medicine, all those patients could be cured without having to spend more than a dime, and our foundation could reach out to save more patients in need!”
Upon hearing this, Matthew waved his hand to dismiss virtual-novel.net suggestion. ”Nah, I’m just one man. How many lives could I save? If your charity does well enough, then you’d be helping out hundreds of thousands of patients. Now that would be truly impressive!”
Crystal let out a small laugh, and virtual-novel.net was just about to say something when raised voices could be heard coming from outside.
“For heaven’s sake, I made it clear that you can’t be discharged just yet! You were heavily knocked down, and your internal injuries have barely even healed! What you need now is to be put on bed rest until you get better. Why must you be so stubborn? Miss Harrison’s foundation has already covered your medical expenses, so please just stay until the doctor clears you!”
Upon hearing these, Crystal rushed out only to see a woman being held back by a couple of nurses, who were trying their best to persuade virtual-novel.net to stay hospitalized. However, the woman refused and was adamant about leaving.
Having followed Crystal. Matthew glanced at the scene before virtual-novel.net and froze in shock, for virtual-novel.net knew this woman who insisted on leaving. She was none other than Heidi, Sasha’s aunt and the only relative of the Cunningham Family whom Matthew truly approved of.
