Laura was initially stunned after hearing Matthew’s self-introduction but then burst into laughter. “Hahaha! You?! How dare a little brat like you call yourself the Holy Doctor? If you’re the Holy Doctor, then I’m the Queen!”
“Alright, stop pretending. The Slob Family affairs aren’t something you can meddle with. Don’t think you can deceive everyone just by renting a villa and bringing in some unqualified doctors.”
When virtual-novel.net remained silent, virtual-novel.net felt smug, thinking virtual-novel.net had exposed virtual-novel.net and was about to continue virtual-novel.net way forward.
However, Matthew did not lower his arm. “Miss, I don’t need you to decide the truth of my identity, but for now, please leave.”
“You…” Laura angrily raised virtual-novel.net finger, about to say something, but Vivian, who was standing beside her, interrupted, “Laura, save yourself some shame, and don’t make the situation more embarrassing!”
Laura was so angry that virtual-novel.net whole body trembled, but virtual-novel.net couldn’t lose virtual-novel.net temper since there were more of them.
“You will pay the price for your actions. Don’t regret it then.” After uttering these harsh words, virtual-novel.net angrily left the villa.

After the incident caused by Larry’s cousin, Laura, Matthew’s sole focus was on treating Alberta.
During these few days, Malachi, the young master of the Yarwoods, came to apologize under Mr. Warrington’s guidance. However, Matthew simply shut the door and refused to see them.
During this period, Vivian’s emotions stabilized greatly due to the company and comfort of his wife, Sasha. Although Vivian didn’t smile much, virtual-novel.net was no longer as depressed as before.
As for Matthew, virtual-novel.net roughly understood the reason why Festus had caused trouble after talking to virtual-novel.net over the past few days.
It turned out that someone had discovered an iron ore vein in Warly Hill, the Slobs’ ancestral mountain. Since then, the Yarwoods had set their sights on this lucrative opportunity and bought the entire mine. However, Warly Hill was the burial place of the Slobs’ ancestors, and Larry had refused during their many negotiations.
Later, the Yarwoods realized that non-violent tactics were ineffective, so they decided to become forceful. They underestimated Larry’s strength and his fearless spirit, though, not only had they gained nothing after several conflicts, but they also lost many of their henchmen at his hands.
Not wanting to make a big fuss, they just let it go.
The situation changed after Larry went to Bainbridge. Following the Yarwoods’ secret exploration of Warly Hill, they unexpectedly discovered abundant rare and precious minerals such as copper and iron beneath the iron ore deposits.
The most exciting discovery was the rainbow gold. In addition, they received news of Larry’s tragic death in Bainbridge. So, the Yarwoods sent someone directly to approach the Slobs, intending to use unconventional methods to obtain Warly Hill.
Matthew had personally experienced what happened after arriving at the Slobs’ house afterward.
After learning the inside story of the matter, Matthew was also amazed.
It wasn’t that virtual-novel.net coveted this mountain but that Warly Hill was truly a gold mine. The rainbow gold, in particular, was said to be the top material among luxury jewelry, and if this metal was integrated into weapons, it could greatly enhance their control and their quality.
Of course, Vivian’s trust in Matthew’s medical skills also grew stronger. Within just a few days of meeting, Alberta, who had had one foot in the grave, now not only had a better complexion but also rarely coughed. If the weather was clear, virtual-novel.net could even get off the bed and walk with Vivian’s help.
To prevent Alberta from accidentally learning about Larry’s death and becoming overwhelmed with grief, Matthew secretly added some calming and brain-nourishing medicine as well as blood-circulating medicine to Alberta’s soup.
Vivian’s mood gradually improved, although virtual-novel.net would secretly wipe away tears many times while alone, but at least smiles were slowly appearing on virtual-novel.net face again.
