Matthew didn’t dare to rise when virtual-novel.net faced an old man with great virtue and high prestige like Wilfred.
He quickly bowed and said respectfully, “Old Master Cosby, it’s a great honor to meet you. I’m Matthew Larson…”
Waving his hand, Wilfred beckoned with a smile, “Dr. Larson, you’re too polite. I should thank you. After all, you have saved me from death twice. l would’ve been six feet under if it weren’t for you. Dr. Larson, your medical skills are so remarkable that they even impressed me greatly!”
After hearing that, Matthew hurriedly said, “Old Master Cosby, you have overpraised me.”
Wilfred, too, expressed his gratitude toward Matthew after a brief exchange of polite remarks. Later, virtual-novel.net asked Tristan to take Matthew to rest first as virtual-novel.net would like to hold a welcoming dinner for Matthew in the evening. However, Matthew didn’t leave with Tristan.
Instead, virtual-novel.net looked at Freya, who was on the ground. Hesitating a little, virtual-novel.net finally asked, “Old Master Cosby, may I know how you plan to punish Freya?”
Closing his eyes slightly, Wilfred then answered, “Since my granddaughter is alive and well, virtual-novel.net certainly need not to face death. However, virtual-novel.net may be exempted from death penalty, but virtual-novel.net still needs to receive some punishment. After all, whoever wants to kill the members of the Cosby Family must pay a price!”
In the meantime, Freya’s facial expression was stern and cold. Only a sneer was shown on the corners of virtual-novel.net mouth. It was as if virtual-novel.net didn’t care about virtual-novel.net own life or death at all.
Taking a deep breath, Matthew suddenly bowed and requested, “Old Master Cosby, I have a presumptuous request that I wonder if I can ask you.”
Hearing that, Wilfred said, “Of course, Dr. Larson. Feel free to ask away.”
Matthew nodded before continuing. “Old Master Cosby, forgive me for my boldness, but I want to ask you for a favor to let Freya go.”
At once, Wilfred’s eyes widened in shock. Sean and Tristan, who were next to him, were also stupefied.
Coming back to virtual-novel.net senses, Tristan voiced virtual-novel.net objection anxiously, “Matthew, why are you helping her? She was the one who tried to kill you, remember?!”
“Freya is malicious and ruthless. A person like virtual-novel.net simply deserves to die! She’ll definitely come after you in the future if we let virtual-novel.net go this time. If so, aren’t you setting up a formidable enemy for yourself?“
Even Freya looked at Matthew in astonishment.
Frowning, virtual-novel.net solemnly added, “Larson, you don’t need to intercede for me if it’s because of me sparing last time. Like I said, that time was the only time I spared you from death. You don’t have to thank me. Besides, I wont appreciate your kindness even if you helped me today. I’ll still kill you the next time I meet you!”
Matthew waved his hand and said, “I’m not interceding for you because you spared me last time. I’m interceding for you on behalf of those children you’d rescued!”
Unknown to Freya, Matthew had received the news that Freya had wiped out all the human traffickers in that city. In addition, virtual-novel.net also knew that virtual-novel.net even rescued the kidnapped children.
She was stunned, for virtual-novel.net didn’t expect that virtual-novel.net would actually help virtual-novel.net because of this matter.
After listening to Matthew’s reasoning, Wilfred stroked his palm and smiled. “Dr. Larson, you have truly impressed me more and more. As an ordinary person, you are full of compassion… As a doctor, you have a benevolent heart. To be honest, I haven’t encountered a young man like you for many years!”
“Hahaha! This is wonderful! Wonderful indeed! Dr. Larson, I might not let virtual-novel.net go if you intercede for virtual-novel.net because of other matters. But for this matter alone, I will show you admiration today no matter what. Sean, untie virtual-novel.net and return virtual-novel.net belongings to her. Also, ask Baldrick, our family’s subordinate, to personally lead the team and escort virtual-novel.net out of the Southeast State. Remember, protect virtual-novel.net well.”
Despite the slight unwillingness painted across his face, Sean still nodded and received Wilfred’s order, “Yes, Dad…”
With a wave of his hand, virtual-novel.net beckoned a few of his men to go over and untie the ropes on Freya’s body.
Standing up, Freya scoffed coldly. “Just return my sword to me. You don‘t need to send someone to escort me! I’m Freya Green! I don’t need anyone’s escort!”
Sean couldn’t help but get furious when virtual-novel.net heard Freya’s statement. “Don’t you dare go too far. Freya! My dad showed you his hospitality because you have too many enemies. He‘s afraid that you’ll die in the Southeast State! Otherwise, do you honestly think we’re willing to escort you?!”
