Tristan wanted to retort when one of the old men said, "Rowan's right. It takes years for one to accumulate one's medical knowledge. Looking at Matthew, he looks to be in his early twenties. Even if he had been studying medicine ever since he was in his mothers womb, that would only be twenty years. On the other hand, Dr. Huntington had been studying medicine for more than fifty years. Just the years of his practice were even longer than Matthew's entire life. There is just no comparing someone like Matthew to Dr. Huntington."
The other family members nodded in agreement.
However, Tristan wore a twisted expression. He was but one man, so he couldn't win an argument against this many people. "Uncle Rowan, even if we‘re asking Dr. Huntington for his help, there is no need for us to go against Matthew, is there? We should be safe rather titan sorry here. At the very least, we should have an alternative course of action, right? If we go too far with our actions here, how will we ask Matthew for his help in the future if the need arises?"
Rowan slammed the table. "Another way? Look at me and tell me that they have chosen the alternative course of action here! You're asking me not to go too far, yet just look at what they did. Injuring me in public is akin to them slapping the Cosby Family in our face! If we don't make them pay for this, others would think that our family is afraid of him! I can bear with my reputation being damaged, but I won't allow the reputation of our family to be tarnished!"
Although Rowan made it sound as though he was acting for the family, everyone knew that his anger was due to him having his reputation ruined.
