The Medical Genius’s Unspeakable Marriage Novel Chapter 861
Fatal Coddling
James let loose a string of curses at the door before turning to glare at Helen mutinously. “Do you see Tate’s true colors now? I told you not to believe anything that comes out of that mouth of his, but you refused to listen! I’m not getting any younger, but because of you, I had to get on my knees to apologize to someone! Heavens, I—marrying you must be some kind of karmic retribution for whatever horrible wrong I’ve done in my past life!”
Helen was silent as she kept her head down. She could not argue with James, knowing that Tate had really crossed the line this time.
After another round of abuse, James finally relented and set down a couple of ground rules for Helen: from now onward, she was not to have any contact or get involved in anything that had to do with the Campbells. Most importantly, no one in the Cunningham household was to bring up the Campbells in any way.
Helen bristled at such demands. “James, I agree that Tate has gone too far this time, but don’t you think it’s a little harsh for you to ask all these of me? Have you forgotten how Chloe helped us when we first got married and had nothing?”
“Shut up!” James barked with renewed anger. “Just because she helped us out of a tight spot all those years ago, it doesn’t mean we have to return the favor unconditionally! I’ve been more than hospitable to them since their return from abroad, and I said nothing when you asked Matthew to sign the order on Jonah’s behalf. Where do we draw the line at helping them, Helen? If Tate wasn’t in the wrong, I would have spoken up for him, but if you try to shield him even though he was clearly at fault, then you’ve failed in principle! You’re not helping him; you’re nudging him into self-destruction. He’s going to end up in worse places if you keep coddling him. Do you understand?”
Sasha nodded slowly in agreement with this. “You know, Mom, if you had just let him learn his lesson the hard way the last time he ran over someone with his car, then all this could have been avoided. Aunt Chloe and the others spoiled Tate beyond reason, so he’s used to being entitled, and he acts without thinking. You should be grateful that he angered Mr. Harrison this time and not one of the Ten Greatest Families of Eastcliff; if he did, then none of us could save him even if we were to lose everything.”
Lowering her head, Helen said nothing and began considering the consequences of this incident. She had to admit that Sasha was right; Joseph had only spared Tate because it was a favor to Matthew, but if this involved anyone from the Ten Greatest Families of Eastcliff, then tonight would have likely ended in bloodshed.
Tate offended the Harrisons this time, and though he survived, he barely made it. If he weren’t put in his place, who’s to say he wouldn’t go and trifle with the Ten Greatest Families of Eastcliff? Then we’d all be doomed!
After a long pause later, Helen finally muttered, “I… I see now that I have been wrong to stand by him all this time. I’ll talk to Chloe and have her keep an eye on Tate from now on, so he’d stay out of trouble. Nevertheless, she’s still my sister, and I can’t just cut her off after all she did to help us back then.”
Infuriated by her stubbornness, James waved his hand and spat, “I won’t even try to persuade you anymore, but I’ll tell you this—the Campbells are no longer welcome at the Grand Garden, and if you want to see them, you can head over to their place! One last thing: they’ll have to clean up their own mess from now on, and I don’t want our family to be dragged into their business no matter what! I won’t be helping them ever again!”
With that, he stormed into his bedroom.
Sasha took Matthew by the arm and pulled him up the stairs, having never wanted to be involved in the Campbells’ mess in the first place.
Demi, on the other hand, merely sighed as she said softly, “There’s no use getting mad, Mom. It’s a good thing that the Campbells would stop coming by our place. Tate and Minerva are shameless fools who have been telling everyone that this is their home and that we’re just staying here as guests. You can’t go easy on them; otherwise, they’d just start taking things for granted!”
“That’s enough!” Helen’s blood was boiling as she glowered at her daughter. “How could you say such things about your own cousins? They wouldn’t go around spewing nonsense like that!”
The Medical Genius’s Unspeakable Marriage Novel Chapter 862
I’ll Make Them Regret This
Demi had wanted to make Helen see sense, but after hearing the latter’s rebuff, she grew infuriated and snapped, “You know what, forget it! Go ahead and believe them all you want, but trust me, you’re only going to end up regretting it!”
Helen shot her a baleful look. “Shut up! You didn’t even try to help Tate when he was suffering earlier, and now you’re just going to stand there and add insult to injury? You should have defended him when he was getting all his teeth pulled out, but you wouldn’t even call an ambulance after that! How could you be so heartless, Demi?”
Demi rolled her eyes in exasperation. Not wanting to spend another moment with her mother, she pulled Liam into the room and put a decided end to this nonsensical exchange.
Helen, on the other hand, simmered in anger as she sat in the living room, feeling wounded by her family’s indifference toward her nephew’s predicament.
Meanwhile, Chloe had brought Tate to the hospital, and it took a whole night before they finally settled him down.
She called Minerva, but she didn’t manage to get through the latter’s phone until 11.00AM the next day.
Minerva had spent the night with Peter, and she was still tired from the endeavor. She was yawning even as she arrived at the hospital, but when she saw how miserable Tate was, she immediately snapped in anger, “How the hell did this happen? Which idiot was it that had the nerve to cause harm to my brother?!”
After a deep sigh, Chloe explained last night’s incident to Minerva, who was outraged after hearing everything. “Mom, are you saying that Tate was beaten up at Aunt Helen’s house last evening? Is that how he ended up like this?”
Chloe nodded in confirmation, and Minerva grew thunderous. “And what did the Cunningham Family do to help him? Did they just watch him get beaten up without putting a stop to it? They’re supposed to be family, but they didn’t even try to save Tate! I can’t believe they’re treating you like this even after all the help you gave them in the past, Mom! They’re just a whole bunch of ingrates!”
Another tired sigh escaped Chloe’s lips as she said, “Calm down, Minerva. You have to understand that Tate was wrong from the start, hence what happened last night.”
“I don’t think he was wrong at all, Mom!” Minerva protested with an angry wave of her hand. “It was Crystal who slapped him first, so it was only normal for Tate to want to seek revenge out of anger. Besides, Crystal and her grandfather were completely unscathed, weren’t they? But they decided to bring their men and cause a scene at the Cunningham residence, and Tate was so brutally beaten up that he lost all his teeth! They were being violent and cruel for no reason!”
The argument weighed on Chloe’s mind for a moment before she hesitated and said quietly, “No, Minerva, that’s not true. The incident started because Tate told a couple of very serious lies, which ended up causing a rift between the Cunningham Family and the Harrisons. Things took a turn for the worse after that.”
Minerva was firm on her stance. “That’s not the point, Mom. The Harrisons stormed over to the house threatening Tate with violence, but the Cunningham Family did nothing to help and chased the both of you out instead. Can’t you see that they’re looking down on us, Mom? They wanted to take this chance to cut us off completely!” She scoffed disdainfully. “They think they can lord their fortune over us because we can’t compete with them. I can’t even count the times Sasha and Demi tried to chase me out of the house when I lived with them, not to mention how James would always give Tate and I contemptuous looks from time to time. He never welcomed us at all! More importantly, even his pathetic son-in-law Matthew would order Tate and me around like we’re dogs! The whole family is made up of a bunch of useless ingrates, and they’re all trash!”
Chloe rubbed the back of her head in frustration. She had never been one to have opinions of her own, and her daughter’s scathing commentary succeeded in probing her dissatisfaction toward the Cunningham Family. With a resigned sigh, she said, “Well, that’s life for you. You’re only royalty when you have money, and without it, even your relatives would shun you. How could humans be so materialistic and ungrateful?”
Minerva spat through gritted teeth, “They’ll pay for what they’ve done! Don’t worry, Mom, I’ll make them regret this for the rest of their lives!”
Taken aback by this, Chloe asked, “Wait, what are you planning to do, Minerva? Let’s not be rash about this!”
The Medical Genius’s Unspeakable Marriage Novel Chapter 863
Minerva’s Scheme
It was 7.00PM, and Minerva was happily wrapped up in Peter’s arms as they sat in a private room in one of the nightclubs in Eastcliff. Suddenly, the door to the room swung open, and three men entered.
Upon closer look, the men happened to be the same trio whom Minerva had brought along to the Grand Garden before this. They had taken a liking to Sasha back then and wanted to get her drunk, but Matthew stopped that from happening. By the end of the night, the three men hadn’t been able to keep up with Matthew’s drinking, and they threw up so badly that they were hospitalized.
They had only just been discharged in the past two days, but they still looked weak and unsteady on their feet as one of them asked, “Minerva, why did you ask to see us so early in the evening?”
Minerva detached herself from Peter’s embrace and eyed the three men darkly. “Do you guys want revenge for what happened last time?”
The three men exchanged a meaningful glance and grimaced. The man who spoke first hissed through gritted teeth, “Of course, we’d want revenge! But none of us could keep up with that bast*rd when it comes to drinking!”
Minerva scoffed. “In that case, don’t drink with him! William, didn’t you say that you know a couple of young masters from the Ten Greatest Families of Eastcliff? Ask them to come by the club tonight, and I’ll bring them over to Sasha’s private room, making it look like I’m trying to introduce her to them. Sasha is a b*tch and a goody-two-shoes, so she wouldn’t graciously receive them at all. When she offends them, we can seize the opportunity to blow things out of proportion.” A cold smirk played on her lips as she continued, “By the end of it all, the few young masters would help us get rid of Larson, and we wouldn’t even have to lift a finger!”
The trio’s eyes lit up when they heard this. They had been holding a grudge against Matthew ever since he got them drunk to the point of throwing up last time, but they didn’t dare seek revenge against him, knowing how rich and powerful the Cunningham Family was.
Now that Minerva had come up with a plan for them to put their revenge into action, they were more than willing to see it through the end. William was excited as he said, “We’ll go along with your plan, Minerva. I recently made friends with a young master from one of the Ten Greatest Families of Eastcliff, and he’s probably already on his way to becoming the heir to his family fortune. The Cunningham Family’s riches could hardly compare to his, and if a brawl really does break out tonight, then Larson will be as good as dead!”
Pleased, Minerva nodded slowly and said with finality, “Very well, then. Let’s get this whole thing started.”
After the three men left happily, Minerva leaned into the couch, and the corner of her lips curled up insidiously. She had spent a good amount of time tweaking her plan to perfection, but Sasha rarely ever came by the nightclub, and Minerva had waited for a while before finally getting the chance to put her evil scheme in action.
Peter, on the other hand, grew uneasy. He was a fraud, after all, and he dared not show his face on occasions that involved those from the upper-crust society. “Honey, I’m afraid I have to go; I have a meeting later tonight,” he lied.
Minerva’s face fell as she tried to persuade him to stay. “I was going to introduce you to a couple of those young masters, honey.”
He uttered a hasty apology and made as if his line of work was busy, then left the club in a rush.
She brushed this off. After all, he wasn’t a crucial part of her plan tonight.
When the clock struck 10.00PM that night, Sasha and a few other girls showed up at the Twilight Bar. These girls were all Sasha’s university mates, and they were a rather close-knit group. They were based out of town for most of the year, but they returned to Eastcliff for a reunion.
Having grabbed dinner with Sasha earlier, they persuaded her to come out with them for a drink tonight.
However, Sasha was still texting on her phone even after settling down in the private room. One of the girls inched closer and mused, “My goodness, Sasha, have you been keeping your husband updated as to your whereabouts all night? You must be precious to him. Is he terrified that we’re going to sell you off to some trafficking group or something?”
Sasha merely smiled as she replied, “No, I just want to make sure he knows where I am. I wouldn’t want him to worry.”

The Wrong Private Room
Not long after Sasha and her friends sat down, Minerva came out of another private room. She had asked one of her friends to keep an eye on Sasha, and when she learned that they were coming over, she immediately came out.
According to plan, she called William to inform him. William had already brought a few young masters over, so she immediately ran to the door to greet them. It didn’t take long to see William and the well-dressed rich young men walking over together.
As soon as William saw Minerva, he immediately waved his hand and smiled. “Young masters, this is the Miss Minerva Campbell I mentioned to you before. The one who just came back from studying abroad. Minerva, let me introduce you. These are Young Master Griffin, Young Master Toncy, and Young Master Telk. As for this one, he needs a grand introduction because he is Young Master Lach or Ronald Lach, the heir to the Lach Family, one of the ten largest families in Eastcliff City!” William introduced with a smile on his face.
As those few young masters glanced at Minerva, their faces were slightly disappointed. At the time when William invited them to come over, he had said that there were wonderful beauties over here. However, Minerva’s appearance was rather plain and far from extraordinary. Thus, they responded indifferently to Minerva’s enthusiastic greetings. Slightly embarrassed, she quickly laughed. “Gentlemen, let’s go upstairs first, alright? My friends are waiting upstairs, and we shouldn’t keep the pretty girls waiting too long!”
When the rich young men heard this, they instantly became much more animated and eager. Then, they immediately followed Minerva upstairs, and when they arrived, Minerva did not go to her own private room but instead led these people straight to Sasha’s private room. She pushed the door in and smiled. “Come, we’re here.”
Inside the room, Sasha and the girls were drinking and were a little confused by this sudden situation. One of the girls was surprised and said, “Hey, did you enter the wrong room?”
Minerva then pretended to look surprised. “Oops, I really did. Sorry about that. Huh? Sasha, are you here too?”
She pretended that this was the first time she spotted Sasha and immediately ran over to greet her. Seeing this, Sasha frowned slightly; she did not really like Minerva and simply grunted back at her.
At this time, those rich youngsters at the entrance, however, were all wide-eyed because Sasha was known as the most beautiful woman in Eastcliff City. From top to toe, she was the embodiment of femininity. Although these rich young men were used to seeing beautiful women, they still could not look away the moment they saw Sasha. In particular, Ronald Lach also widened his eyes in astonishment. At this moment, there were only four words in his mind—what a fruitful trip!
When Minerva saw the expressions of these rich toffs, she knew that they had already taken the bait. She secretly laughed in her heart, but her face was filled with fake embarrassment as she said, “Oh, Sasha, I’m really sorry. We came to the wrong room. I’ve disturbed you guys, but please carry on, and we’ll go first.”
Pretending to be leaving, Minerva walked to the door. At this moment, however, Ronald walked in directly. “Hey, Minerva, since you know these people, it’s okay to sit inside here, right?”
The other wealthy youngsters also followed in and laughed. “Yes, yes, Minerva, why don’t you let your friends come over and have fun with us?”
“We’re here to have fun, and the more, the merrier!”
“Since we all know each other, it’s better to sit together.”
Indeed, Minerva wanted this to happen, so she immediately said, “Oh, well, it’s not appropriate, right? Sasha, these are my friends. Won’t you let us stay?”
Hearing this, Sasha frowned. These are your friends and not mine, so why should they stay?
Of course, she couldn’t say no directly, so she said softly, “Minerva, sorry. You see, it is our university reunion party tonight, so we prefer to keep the crowd small.”

Young Master Lach
Hearing these words, the rich youngsters instantly furrowed their brows. When they came out to have fun, it was usually those nightclub girls who stopped them from leaving!
Now Sasha clearly meant to drive them out, making them a little annoyed. Next, Ronald sat next to Sasha and drawled, “Cutie, why do you have to be like this? We’re all here to have fun. Don’t we all want to have a good time? Since we all know each other, let’s hang out and have a drink or two. We’re just here to make friends, anyway. By the way, let me introduce myself. My name is Ronald Lach, and I come from the Lach Family of the Ten Greatest Families of Eastcliff. My father is the current head of the Lach Family!”
After saying that, Ronald looked at Sasha with a smug face. Ever since his father became the head of the family, he had been proud of his status. Every time he introduced himself like this, he could reap the awe of the people around him. As for the girls, once they heard that he was the heir of the Lach Family, they all threw themselves at him, eager to marry into the Lach Family. With this name alone, he was able to pick up countless girls in nightclubs.
However, Sasha’s face did not change in the slightest. She simply said softly, “Pleased to meet you, Young Master Lach. However, I don’t think it’s best for you to stay because this is our class party—”
Before she finished her words, a girl next to her suddenly said, “Hey, Sasha, it’s okay. We can make a few more friends. Hello, Young Master Lach. My name is Cecilia Ziegler. Nice to meet you!”
The other girls also came over and greeted Ronald. After all, it was difficult for them to get to know such a rich young man from an affluent family, especially the heir of one of the top ten families. If they could get to know such a man, they would be able to brag a bit when they talk to people in the future. So, of course, they were eager to have Ronald and his friends stay.
Ronald smiled smugly in return as he replied, “Ladies, it’s nice to meet you all. How about this? Your drinks tonight will be on me. Go, have the waitstaff come over and get the best wine out for me. Only the best for all of you lovely ladies, right?”
Those few girls were immediately full of joy, clapping their hands excitedly and praising Ronald again and again. Smug, Ronald glanced at Sasha, wanting to see her reaction. To his dismay, Sasha did not look happy in the slightest. Instead, her eyebrows were furrowed. She took out her phone and sent a message to Matthew, asking him to come and pick her up. I hate this kind of situation!
Ronald’s face after he saw this, but in his heart, he became more excited. Such a difficult girl who played hard to get would bring a sense of accomplishment if he managed to get her!
Sitting together and chatting for a while, Ronald felt the mood was almost right. Soon, he picked up his glass and smilingly said to Sasha. “I really didn’t expect that there would be such a beautiful girl like you, Miss Cunningham, in Eastcliff City. My visit here today can be considered the best decision I have made in my life. It’s honestly a privilege to have a glimpse of your beauty! Miss Cunningham, will you have a drink with me?”
Sasha shook her head directly. “Sorry, I’ll be driving later, so I can’t drink.”
Instantly, Ronald’s face went cold. He had praised her so much, yet she still did not care at all. Urgh! This woman!
Suddenly, Minerva said, “Sasha, Ronald invited you to drink. How could you not? There are chauffeurs everywhere now, so why are you afraid that you’re going to drive later? It’s not a big deal. I’ll help you drive the car back later!”
Ronald smiled slightly too. “Miss Cunningham, you don’t have to worry about it. In this part of Eastcliff City, I am still quite influential. It doesn’t matter if you drink and drive. Even if you drink and drive and accidentally kill someone because of it, I will also ensure your safety!”
The other girls all looked on in envy and had only one collective thought. How nice it would be if Ronald could invite me to drink with him!
The Medical Genius’s Unspeakable Marriage Novel Chapter 866
How Dare You Hit Me?
A frowning Sasha felt that Ronald was being too arrogant. “I’m really sorry; I haven’t been feeling well recently, so the doctor ordered me not to drink.” She again politely refused him.
Ronald put down his glass, his face dark as he stared at her with a smile. “Miss Cunningham, are you unable to drink? Or, are you not wanting to drink with me?”
Minerva immediately played along and added, “Sasha, are you feeling unwell? Why don’t I know about this?”
Sasha fiercely glared at Minerva and responded, “Young Master Lach, I’m really sorry. I really am not feeling well.”
Then, he slammed his wine glass on the table and said in a cold voice, “Miss Cunningham, you’re really something. I have personally toasted to you, yet you don’t care to drink. Tsk, it seems that you really don’t care about the Ten Greatest Families of Eastcliff!”
The other wealthy youngsters immediately looked over in anger; they were also considered Ronald’s lapdogs, so they naturally had to behave with the correct attitude at this time.
Sasha frowned as she insisted, “Young Master Lach, I am really not feeling well.”
Thus, he immediately responded, “Since you are not feeling well, let me help you up. Come with me. You guys continue to have fun while I’ll take Miss Cunningham home to rest first!”
With that, he reached out to pull Sasha, who hurriedly took a few steps back and urged, “Young Master Lach, I-I can head home by myself!”
By this time, Ronald’s face was red with humiliation due to her multiple refusals. Since his father became the head of the Lach Family, he had not encountered such a situation and he felt that she was simply looking down on him. Therefore, he was annoyed and said in a cold voice, “Miss Cunningham, you’re not feeling well. How can I feel at ease to allow you to head home by yourself? Come, Miss Cunningham, I’ll take you to the room upstairs to rest.”
After speaking, he took a step forward and blocked Sasha in the corner. Next, he opened his arms, ready to forcibly grab her into his embrace. As she was faced with this sudden action, she was furious and slapped him across his face without thinking.
As Ronald froze for a moment, his expression instantly changed. “B*tch, you dare to hit me?”
The other wealthy youngsters immediately rose to their feet and angrily stared at Sasha. Upon seeing this, Minerva crowed, “Sasha, w-what are you doing? Young Master Lach has kindly tried to help you! How can you hit him? Besides, it’s rude to hit someone’s face. You’ve slapped him! This is too much!”
As expected, these words aggravated Ronald’s emotions as his face turned purple while he pointed at Sasha to angrily curse, “Btch, you really take yourself seriously, huh? As the heir of one of the Ten Greatest Families of Eastcliff, how am I not good enough for you? Dmn you, I invited you to drink, yet you dare to hit me in the face after not drinking with me. If I don’t deal with you today, I will never be able to face anyone in the future!”
With that said, he reached out and lunged straight at her. A shocked Sasha desperately struggled to resist his actions. She inadvertently grabbed a cup on the table and smashed it on his head, which caused him to suddenly bleed.
This time, the whole room was shocked. Minerva could not help but be secretly happy as the result was beyond her expectations! Everyone froze for a moment at that sight while Ronald roared in fury, “Dmn, btch, do you want to die? I have talked to you politely, yet you’re treating me as a punching bag? Fine, I’ll show you who I really am today! D*mn it! Hold her down; I’m going to finish her off here today!”
His peers immediately rushed over and prepared to hold Sasha down.
However, at that moment, the door of the room was suddenly kicked open and Matthew walked in with a cold face. Upon seeing this, all the people in the room were stunned. As Ronald recovered from his shock, he pointed at Matthew and cursed, “Who the hell are you? Get the hell out of here! I—”
The Medical Genius’s Unspeakable Marriage Novel Chapter 867
I Have No Intention of Leaving
Before all of Ronald’s words left his mouth, Matthew grabbed Ronald’s wrist and twisted it with force. Then, with a click so loud that everyone could hear, Ronald’s whole arm fell limply to his side as he let out a pig-like howl! The other wealthy youngsters were all stunned at the sight; they had never seen such a ruthless attack!
“Beat him to death!” Ronald roared next. “Beat him to death!” Only then did they return to their senses and look at each other. Then, they grabbed the bottles on the table and aggressively surrounded Matthew. However, Matthew simply ignored them and walked straight toward Sasha.
At this moment, one of the rich young men stood behind Matthew, holding a bottle to sneak up on him. Yet, Matthew didn’t even need to turn his head back, but he was able to do a backward kick on the man’s chest, causing the man to fly out backward and crash into the TV set. The huge TV then shattered with a loud bang. Immediately after that, he too fell to the ground and he was unable to even stand up as three of his ribs were broken.
When his peers saw this, they were all a bit frightened and didn’t dare to make a move. Thus, Matthew successfully walked to Sasha’s side. Then, he grabbed her trembling hand and asked in a low voice, “How are you? Is everything okay?”
She was a little frightened and it was only when he grabbed her hand that she felt a little better. After she nodded, she gritted her teeth and whispered, “L-Let’s go home!”
Another rich young man immediately jumped out to block their way. “D*mn, you have hit Young Master Lach and you want to run now? Are you high or something? Let me tell you, neither one of you can leave unscathed today!”
The rest of the men echoed his words loudly, but they were only yelling from a distance, not daring to come over at all.
Matthew turned his head to glance at them and his gaze finally landed on Ronald. “Don’t worry, I really don’t plan to leave yet! This matter must be dealt with clearly tonight,” he said in a cold voice.
While baring his teeth, Ronald grinned. “Kid, you’ve got a lot of guts! You want to deal with it clearly, right? Fine, wait here. When the people from the Lach Family arrive, let’s properly deal with it!”
“Okay, then you have to hurry up.” Matthew sneered, “I’ll give you ten minutes; if they don’t come, I’ll break one of your fingers for every minute that they’re late to the party. If they dare to be more than ten minutes late, hehe, you will only be able to eat with your toes in the future!”
Ronald cursed, “D*mn you, you’re really arrogant! Kid, do you know who I am? I’m the heir of the Lach Family! My father is now the head of the Lach Family—”
However, Matthew waved his hand to interrupt him. “I don’t care. Now, call someone immediately and I’ll help you to time their arrival!”
An annoyed Ronald hissed, “Okay, just you wait. Later, when the people from the Lach Family come over, it’s useless even if you kneel and beg me for mercy!”
With that, he furiously took out his phone to call someone.
Sasha stood behind Matthew and whispered, “Matthew, should we just let it go? It’s just a little thing. There’s no need—”
Nevertheless, he shook his head. “Sasha, you are my wife. If they dare to bully you, this is the biggest humiliation to me! Today, I will help you to get justice!”
Ronald put down his phone and glanced at Matthew. “Kid, my people from the Lach Family will be here soon. Humph, now I’ll give you a chance. Have your wife strip naked here and accompany us to drink a few glasses of wine. If so, I may be able to spare your life later and—”
Before he could even finish speaking, there was a sudden blur before his eyes. Not waiting for him to figure out what was going on, Matthew had already appeared in front of him and delivered a volley of slaps across his face.
In fact, Ronald was hit so hard that his vision blurred and his brain buzzed. In the next moment, he opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood and within the blood was a few broken teeth.
The Medical Genius’s Unspeakable Marriage Novel Chapter 868
Such a Petty Man
Matthew stood in place as if he hadn’t moved. His gaze was cold and he enunciated his words, “If you talk cheap again, you’ll have to eat liquid food forever in the future!”
Upon hearing this, Ronald was extremely annoyed and wanted to curse again, but he finally swallowed his anger. As for the other rich young men, they also lowered their heads and dared not speak. After all, it was unwise to provoke Matthew at this time even though they were secretly furious. When members of the Lach Family arrive, we must bring Matthew down to his knees and have him beg for mercy!
Minerva stood in the corner; when she saw the scene unfolding before her, she was extremely happy. It was her purpose tonight to deliberately lure Ronald to Sasha’s private room and get him to molest Sasha, which would then lead to a conflict between Matthew and the Lach Family. As she was aware that she alone couldn’t deal with him, Minerva had to rely on the power of the Lach Family to do so.
Although he knew a few big shots, would the Lach Family ever let him off the hook now that he had beaten up their heir? Besides, those big shots whom Matthew knew would never dare to go against the Lach Family of the Ten Greatest Families of Eastcliff just for him! So, in Minerva’s opinion, Matthew had messed with the wrong people and he was now as good as dead. Thus, she was extremely pleased about how everything had all played out.
As for Sasha’s classmates, they were all a bit surprised. They merely wanted to take the opportunity to make friends with Ronald and his companions, but they did not expect things to come to this point. In fact, when Matthew rushed in and struck so ruthlessly, it had really scared them all. Among them was Cecilia, who couldn’t help but say, “W-Who is this, Sasha?”
Sasha replied, “He is my husband, Matthew!”
The women were stunned, especially Cecilia, whose eyes widened. “Your husband? I-Isn’t he just the live-in son-in-law?”
Then, the others returned to their senses. They all remembered that Sasha had a live-in husband as it was the joke of the century at that time within their social circle. After all, she was the campus belle at that time with so many people being interested in her. Who would have thought that she would end up looking for such a man?
After he heard this, Ronald was immediately angered. “Live-in son-in-law? D*mn, and here I thought you were some kind of big shot, but it turns out you’re just a soft loser! What a trash!”
After that, his peers laughed while Sasha’s classmates also looked at Matthew with disdain. In their opinion, it was an honor for them to get to know Ronald and the others tonight. Now, Matthew, that piece of trash, had ruined their great plans for the night!
Cecilia sighed. “Matthew, it’s not that I want to criticize you, but what are you doing? Sasha is simply having a drink with Young Master Lach and there’s nothing else going on, so why are you throwing a tantrum? Even if you’re just a live-in son-in-law, you’re still a man, so can’t you have a bigger heart? It’s fine if you aren’t able to make a career for yourself, but you shouldn’t affect Sasha’s future! Sasha is now in charge of a large company and such social engagements are inevitable. Now that you have shouted at a client whom Sasha was just having a drink with, who will dare to continue to do business with her company? And if Sasha’s company is without customers, how else can she make money? How can she support you?”
The other women also nodded.
“Yes, I have never seen such a petty man! To live on a woman, you have to be aware that you’re living on a woman. If you want to rely on a woman, but you do not want to let her go out to earn money, how can she support the family?”
“Sasha, this kind of person is definitely not a good match for you. I advise you to divorce him early as you can definitely find a better man with your background!”
“Hey, Sasha, you were the best girl at that time, so how could you find such a person? We are all highly educated people, so how can you stand such a barbaric and reckless man?”

Sasha, It’s Still Your Fault
The female students conversed while expressing their contempt for Matthew in order to win Ronald’s favor. When Ronald heard it, he looked at Matthew with a smug face as a cold smile tugged at the corners of his lips.
Sasha couldn’t help it and suddenly asked, “Cecilia, what are you guys talking about? What do you mean about me having just a normal drink with Ronald? I-I’ve said that I can’t drink, yet he’s the one who insisted on filling my glass—”
Cecilia waved her hand to interrupt. “Now, now, Sasha. We are former classmates and I certainly know you. You’re a bit of a drinker, so how is it that you can’t drink? I understand it all now. It must be this barbarian who has been terrorizing you at home all day, telling you not to drink outside, so you don’t dare to drink, right? Hey, Sasha, it’s not that I want to criticize you, but what era is this now? Even women can support families and be the head of their companies, so why do you need to be afraid of such trash? Does he dare to hit you? Let me tell you, a lot of our old classmates are now working in law enforcement. As long as this man dares to flick a finger at you, he can be convicted of domestic violence. Then, he will be sentenced to a few months in prison, after which you can divorce him! Living with this kind of trash won’t bring you any happiness!”
The other women also nodded at this. Sasha finally became upset and shouted, “That’s enough! Cecilia, shut up! You don’t know anything and you’re just speculating wildly here. People like you are the ones who are really pieces of trash!”
Cecilia froze for a moment and quickly answered, “Sasha, what do y-you mean? I’m speaking up for you and I’m doing this for your own good, yet you are treating me like this?!”
The other girls were also righteously indignant.
“Sasha, we are all classmates, so how could we possibly harm you? Cecilia is being frank, but she’s actually really nice and we all know that. It’s too disappointing that you are talking like this!”
Now that she was turning purple with rage, Sasha answered indignantly, “What’s for my own good?! You don’t know anything and you dare to say it’s for my good? According to you, I should have drunk with that man named Ronald earlier and followed him to the room upstairs before allowing him to insult me at will?”
The female students looked at each other and they were all a bit stumped for a moment.
Cecilia thought for a while before saying, “Sasha, y-you are overthinking! In fact, Young Master Lach just wanted to have a drink with you and make friends with all of us. What’s wrong with that? It was you who repeatedly refused him, which angered him and led to what happened later. I know that Young Master Lach has a bad temper, but in the end, it’s still your fault.”
Upon hearing this, Ronald let out a laugh. “Well said!”
She immediately smiled and added, “What I said is merely the truth!”
Matthew, on the other hand, sneered. “You’re a good dog indeed! Do you think that if you suck up to Ronald, he will reward you with a bone?”
A furious Cecilia shouted, “What did you say? You’re just a wimp, so what qualifications do you have to talk to me? I’m Sasha’s classmate, so who are you to talk to me like that?”
Sasha responded angrily, “Cecilia, if my husband wants to say something, you have no control! Also, let me ask you, if Ronald wants me to drink, do I have to drink? I’m not an escort, so why should I drink with him? If I don’t, is it my fault? Must he insult me wantonly and even bully me here?”
Cecilia stuttered for a moment; it was only after a long time did she say in a low voice, “Sasha, this is all about respecting each other in the world. Young Master Lach invited you to drink, which means he is looking up to you. If you do not drink with him, it means you’re not respecting him. It’s natural for Young Master Lach to be angry!”
At that, Matthew guffawed. “Well said! Miss, I hope that if someone toasts to you later, you will really respect him by drinking!”

You Have to Keep Your Word!
Cecilia froze for a moment before she glanced at Matthew with cold eyes. “Hmph, if someone toasts to me, I will definitely respect them! If it’s trash like you, I won’t!”
She was implying that if it was him who toasted to her, she would not drink. He smiled slightly as he replied, “Don’t worry, I won’t toast to a piece of crap like you!”
Upon hearing this, she was exasperated. “D-Don’t you go too far!”
However, Matthew didn’t pay attention to her and instead looked at the time. “Hey, it’s been ten minutes now! Young Master Lach, your family hasn’t come yet, right? So, I’ll have to chop off one of your fingers first!”
Ronald’s expression changed greatly and he roared, “If you dare to touch me, my people will never spare you—”
Before all the words could even leave Ronald’s mouth, Matthew had already grabbed his neck and pinned him to the table. Then, Matthew smoothly grabbed the glass next to him before he forcefully twisted it to break a piece of glass.
At this, Sasha’s expression had also changed as she urged, “Matthew, don’t!”
However, it was already too late by this point. Matthew brought down the piece of glass with great force to chop off the little finger on Ronald’s left hand. At that, Ronald instantly let out a miserable scream.
Upon seeing this, the few rich youngsters were dumbfounded; none of them dared to speak and could only watch all this with their eyes wide open. Cecilia was also dumbfounded as she thought Matthew was merely bragging as all of them didn’t expect that he would really do it! Is he crazy?
Ronald clutched his hand that was spurting blood and he hissed loudly, “Matthew, I-I’m not finished with you! I’ll kill you! You wait for it…”
While sneering, Matthew slowly looked at his watch. “How about you make a phone call to urge them? Otherwise, in just a moment, I will have to break off another finger of yours!”
Now that Ronald was pale, he really didn’t dare to doubt Matthew’s words anymore. He hurriedly took out his phone and ran to the side to call for help. At this moment, Cecilia and the others also lacked the courage to say anything as they were frozen to the spot.
As for Minerva, who was hiding in the corner, she had turned pale as well. She suddenly realized that the Matthew in front of her was not the same as the person she usually knew. At home, he seemed like he was very kind to the point of being a doormat. However, it was frightening once he really became angry!
Nevertheless, when she thought that the opponent was the Lach Family, she immediately felt relieved. Matthew, even if you are ruthless, can you compete with the Lach Family? Go on and continue to be reckless! The tougher you are, the worse you’ll die! When you die, Sasha will definitely be insulted and bullied by the people of the Lach Family. And when there is no one to succeed the Cunningham Family, I will swallow all the Cunningham Family’s assets as well!
As she secretly calculated in her heart, she felt even more smug the more she thought about it.
Very soon, another minute had passed. Matthew looked at Ronald, who was shivering in fear, as Ronald hurriedly elaborated, “T-They will be here soon… Wait a little longer…”
Matthew shook his head, though. “When I say a minute, I mean a minute. To be a man, I have to keep my word!”
With that, he once again grabbed Ronald and pressed him to the table. While ignoring Ronald’s mournful plea, Matthew chopped off the man’s ring finger. This time, the crowd couldn’t remain still anymore as Matthew’s brutality made them really fearful for their lives, especially Cecilia and the others who had just insulted him. In fact, the women were now trembling; they did not even dare to make a sound for the fear that he would suddenly involve them in his vicious acts.
Soon, another minute passed again as Ronald stared worriedly at his watch, his face contorting with fear. When he saw Matthew looking toward himself, he jumped up reflexively and rushed straight to the door with the intention to escape. However, Matthew was one step ahead of him and grabbed Ronald by the neck to pull him back.
At this moment, Ronald saw a few people running toward them from outside and he was instantly overjoyed. “They’re here! My people are here!”
