Gauging His Capabilities
Matthew nodded slowly. “Looks like someone is really dead-set to take us down! Who do you think is behind this problem?”
Tiger mused for a while and muttered, “I believe there’s a high chance of them being from the Ten Greatest Families! After all, there aren’t many who are in control of the market in Eastcliff. Master Newman and Mr. Wayne could not possibly pull off such a disgraceful act. So, the only possible suspect would be someone from the Ten Greatest Families!”
“Haha! Do you think the Ten Greatest Families have the guts to do so?”
Taken aback by the turn in tone, Tiger inquired, “Do you mean that there is a mastermind behind the Ten Greatest Families? But if you look across the city, only Master Newman and Mr. Wayne are powerful enough to provide backing for the Ten Greatest Families.”
Matthew shook his head. “You shouldn’t limit your horizon to Eastcliff. Why don’t you look farther?”
Taking a deep breath, Tiger tried to think of the other possibilities. “Look farther? You mean we should look into Eastshire?”
Instead of replying, Matthew started making orders. “First, investigate the person who called dibs on all the construction materials in Eastcliff. We can take our time to deal with the rest of the issue later.”
Tiger immediately nodded. “Sure, Matthew. I’ll work on it right now.”
After hanging up, Matthew sank into deep thoughts.
The city of Eastcliff, which was the territory of Billy Newman, had always been peaceful. Nothing of this sort had ever happened in the area.
He assumed that his meteoric rise in the city might have attracted some unfriendly attention, which could be from the enemy of Billy or even his own!
No matter who the mastermind was, they must have been well-prepared given that they had made a move.
Since Billy was about to leave soon, Matthew knew that he had to grow his influence within a year to the point that he could self-preserve. Otherwise, once Billy was gone, he might be dead meat.
This incident involving the scarcity of construction materials was only an attempt to test him.
The person behind this wanted to gauge his capability and the response from Billy.
You know what? I need to deal with this myself! I can’t let Billy interfere in such a trivial matter! If not, I would be unqualified to inherit Billy’s territory!
After mulling on it a little longer in the office, he contacted Wilson Lach to invite him out for tea.
If it was true that someone from the Ten Greatest Families wanted to attack him, Tiger would not get much intel from the investigations, for they must be on the lookout for Tiger.
Among the Ten Greatest Families, the Jacksons were considered closest to him, so the mastermind must be wary of the Jacksons as well.
Therefore, to find out more about the situation, he decided that the best way forward was to approach the Lachs.
……
After getting the money, Leia skipped her way downstairs and looked around the courtyard, only to realize that her friends were nowhere to be seen. Therefore, she wandered over to a security guard. “Hey, there. Where did the group of people who were here go?”
The guard gave her an annoyed look and replied coldly, “I have no idea.”
His reply irked her. “They were freaking grown-ups standing around here. Are you saying that you have no idea where they went? What are your eyes for, aside from staring at me angrily?”
Obviously, he was irritated by the sudden insult. “My duty is to patrol the hospital, not helping you to keep an eye on someone else. If you can’t find those people, you should lodge a police report. It is not my responsibility to search for them on your behalf, and I am not going to do you a favor.”
Her face contorted in anger as she pointed at him. “Did you hear yourself? What’s with that attitude? I was just asking!”
Unbothered, he turned around to leave.
“Hey, I’m not done yet! Did I allow you to leave? Where are your manners? What kind of lousy hospital would get a guard like you to work for them?” She snapped at him at his heels.
Now the guard was completely incensed. He turned around to point at her. “Shut up! I dare you to speak another word!”
Leia’s neck stiffened as she yelled back, “Are you intimidating me now? Tell you what, my boyfriend is nearby! When he’s back with his friends, I’m going to ask them to beat you up!”
The Medical Genius’s Unspeakable Marriage Novel Chapter 992
You Guys Banded Together to Slander Him
The guard was fuming, and he clenched his fists tightly as he almost erupted in anger. At that time, his security team leader walked over to check on them.
“What’s wrong? What happened?”
Instantly, Leia grumbled, “Gosh, you came on time. Look at this guard of yours! I asked him a question, but he refused to answer, and he even wanted to hit me! What’s with the quality of this hospital? Take a look at the people you hired! Have him apologize to me, or I am going to lodge a report!”
The team leader frowned and looked at the guard, who promptly explained the incident.
After that, the team leader gave Leia a look. “I’m sorry, Miss, but our guards do not have a duty to keep a lookout for your friends. Please also remember that working as a guard is just another job—it is nothing to be ashamed of. I hope you could show us some respect.”
His logical explanation was met with a fierce stare. “Why would you say that I disrespected you?”
The team leader merely flashed a knowing smile without any intention of explaining.
“You are looking for the group of young people around here, right?” he asked.
She replied, “Yeah. Where are they?”
He asked again, “Is there a guy called Luke among them?”
As soon as Leia heard her boyfriend’s name, her grumpy expression was replaced with a smile. “That’s right. He’s my hubby.”
“Oh, they are taken away by the police!”
Her eyes widened in shock. “What? How did that happen?”
The leader explained, “Well, they brought weapons into hospital grounds and attempted to attack one of our doctors, and hence, disrupted public order. So, the hospital called the police, and the group was arrested.”
Presently, Leia was angered. “Did you call the police? Why would you get them arrested? That must have been the problem of the doctor. Why else would my hubby attack the doctor for no reason?”
The leader looked speechless at her surprisingly astonishing logic.
Right then, a cold voice sliced through the air from behind. “They did not call the police! I did!”
They turned around to see Matthew standing not far away behind them. In fact, he had been standing there for quite a while and happened to overhear the entire argument between Leia and the two guards. When he learned that Luke and his gang were with Leia, he almost choked on anger.
What type of ruffian friends did Leia make?
The man’s presence wasn’t appreciated by her, and as soon as she saw him, her face fell. “It was you? H-How could you get them arrested?”
“That’s because they used prohibited items—knives, in this case—to attack me!”
Fuming in anger, she bellowed, “Nonsense! Why would they attack you for no reason?”
Hearing her reply, he couldn’t help but scoff. “No reason? Your ‘hubby’ and his gang attempted to flirt with my wife—your cousin Sasha! When I stopped them, not only did they hit me, they brandished knives to wound me! I was being merciful for only calling the police on them. Had I known that they were your friends, I would have broken their legs right there!”
She was caught off guard for a moment before she started yelling at him, “You… Nonsense! How would my hubby do something like that? He once said to me that I am the only woman he loves and that he would never take a look at other women. He could not have possibly flirted with her! It must be you! You guys banded together to slander him! I will not let this slide!”
The leader could not help but chime in, explaining, “Director Larson was right. That dude called Luke wanted to flirt with Mrs. Larson. All of us witnessed that.”
Leia lost her composure and growled, “I don’t believe you! Matthew Larson, are you trying to slander Luke so that I suspect him and break up with him?”
With that, Leia stormed away.

News From Wilson Lach
Matthew stood rooted to the spot with a dumbfounded expression. This girl acts like she has been brainwashed!
The security team leader walked up to him and whispered, “Director Larson, is that your friend?”
Helplessly, he shook his head. “No, she’s a relative. Do you know the patient, Heidi Freeman? The one staying a floor above?”
The security team leader nodded. “Yes, I’ve heard of her. Didn’t they say that her daughter treats her badly?”
“Yeah. Heidi is my aunt-in-law. The girl just now is her daughter.” Matthew nodded back glumly.
The leader’s eyes turned round. “What? T-That’s her daughter? What a character! Director, if it were me, I would have slapped her until her cheeks were swollen! How could she focus on her hubby when her mom is in that condition?”
Matthew sighed defeatedly, without any word. After he contacted Wilson Lach, soon, the two met up in a quiet cafe. The building was the Lachs’ property. Therefore, Matthew had to disguise himself before entering the place.
Luckily, no one could tell that he was meeting up with Wilson. The Lach Family was Matthew’s connection in the Ten Greatest Families who would provide him insider information.
After Matthew revealed his intention, Wilson sank into a prolonged thought and shook his head at the end. “Mr. Larson, I really did not receive any news about that incident. But I can tell you something for sure: if the Ten Greatest Families are somehow involved in this matter, one of the families will definitely be the culprit!”
Matthew quickly inquired, “Which one?”
Wilson took a deep breath and answered, “The Lewis Family!”
The chances that the Lewis Family might be involved in the matter confused Matthew. “The Lewis Family? But why?”
To make his point clear, Wilson explained, “All the Ten Greatest Families in Eastcliff hold their own assets. Except for some larger industries, they had managed to monopolize the other fields. As for the Lewis Family, they monopolized the construction material industry in Eastcliff. If someone wants to target you, they will need the support of the Lewises.”
Matthew nodded slowly and started piecing the puzzle together in his head. Wilson gave him a look before whispering, “By the way, Mr. Larson, someone from the Orleans’ Voodoo Clan came to me lately to ask about Mr. Sanchez. I followed your instructions and told them that Mr. Sanchez had left abruptly. They did not suspect anything but asked that I continue to search for clues of that girl.”
Matthew frowned as he thought, Wow, it looks like many are visiting from Orleans. I’ll have to start preparing my plan!
“Alright, I got it. Keep to the script and ignore them. After this period, I will personally deal with them,” he muttered softly.
Wilson let out a sigh at the reassurance, for he was rather fearful and avoidant of the Orleans’ Voodoo Clan. If Matthew could resolve this matter with the Clan, he would have nothing else to worry about.
……
…
Leia arrived at the police department near the hospital by cab and happened to see Luke walking out with a swollen face.
“Hubby, how are you doing?” She hurried up to him, but he glared at her indignantly. “What do you think? Don’t you have eyes? Just look at my face!”
Wearing an embarrassed expression, she mumbled, “Hubby, um, are you… Are you in pain?”
He fired back, “Idiot! If I beat you up until you look like me now, do you think you’ll be in pain? Why do you keep asking stupid questions?”
She lowered her head and kept quiet for fear of irritating him.
Looking annoyed, he grunted. “By the way, do you have any money on you? Troy and the gang brought knives to the hospital, and I’m afraid they’ve gotten into trouble. I need to bail them out!”
The Medical Genius’s Unspeakable Marriage Novel Chapter 994
Ask Your Mom for More Money
Leia fumbled in her pockets. “I… I don’t have much on me. I only have 1,000 left. I got these from my mom just now.”
Luke grabbed the money from her and spat, “Did you make a trip to a hospital just for this pitiful 1,000? How good is this sum? Do you know that we’ll need tens of thousands to bail them out? Go to your mom and ask for more!”
She lowered her head. “Hubby, my mom is still in the hospital.”
Yet her boyfriend showed no compassion but glared at her instead. “What do you mean? Are you complaining that they were too harsh on your mom? How many times have I told you? Your mom was rude to you, and that’s why we wanted to teach her a lesson. We never thought of actually hurting her! We didn’t expect the motorcycle to go out of control and run into her! Are you telling me that I did something wrong?”
Hurriedly, Leia waved at him to calm him down. “H-Hubby, I didn’t mean that. I really didn’t mean that. What I’m saying is my mom doesn’t have money either. The 1,000 is from my Aunt Helen…”
He exploded in anger. “Well, ask your Aunt Helen for more!”
She looked embarrassed. “Hubby, I-I am not that close to Aunt Helen. Plus, my mom is still looking into the 13,000 I took from home to bail your friends out.”
Regardless of the explanation, the man did not seem to compromise. “It was just 13,000! What’s the big deal? Didn’t I promise that I’d pay you back along with the interest when I get rich later? Why… Why have you changed?” He did not stop there, but continued saying, “You’re my woman. You should know that I have always kept my promise. If I say I’ll pay you back, I will definitely do that. Aren’t you tired of nagging me about that 13,000?”
She kept her head low and dared not speak.
After throwing a fit, he waved his hand to dismiss her. “Get lost! Go back to your campus! The sight of you annoys me. If I had not gone to the hospital with you, there wouldn’t be so much trouble after! You’re a jinx!”
With a pale face, she gritted her teeth and sank into a long silence before muttering, “Hubby, they… They claimed that you flirted with a girl at the hospital—”
Slap! He instantly slapped her across the face and berated, “What do you mean by that? Do you not trust me? If so, why don’t we break up right away? Sounds good?”
His suggestion to break up didn’t sit too well with her, and while shaking her head in denial, she didn’t look too good. “No, hubby, I didn’t mean that… I-I was just asking if we should sue them for slander?”
He waved his hand again impatiently. “That’s enough. Shut up! I will deal with those problems. You get lost now! Oh, by the way, try to get some money to bail out Troy and the others. Gosh, I’ve never seen a woman as stupid as you!”
He left the scene while still cursing her under his breath.
Words were stuck in Leia’s throat, but she finally gave up and said nothing as she turned to leave. She touched her pocket and realized that she only had a few dollar bills left. When she unlocked her phone, all the personal loan apps were reminding her to make her repayments.
She was instantly gripped by a sense of hopelessness. In the end, she didn’t even take the public bus and opted to walk back to campus instead.
All the while, she was feeling lost about her finances. The money she had left was not enough for a meal. What should I do next?
As for Luke, he immediately hailed a cab and left for a shower and spa facility to clean himself up. Soon, he almost spent all of the 1,000 from Leia.
The Medical Genius’s Unspeakable Marriage Novel Chapter 995
This Is a Trap
Not long after Matthew returned to the hospital, he received a call from Tiger. Just like what he had anticipated, Tiger failed to find out which of the Ten Greatest Families were involved in this scheme.
However, Tiger’s prediction was in line with Wilson’s. If someone wanted to corner Matthew by cutting off the supply of materials, they’d need the support or at least a nod from the Lewis Family. After all, the Lewises monopolized the construction material industry in Eastcliff.
The news sent Matthew frowning. He knew very well that the Lewises could not run the plan single-handedly. On top of that, they did not have any bad blood with him, and there was no good reason for them to face him off. Therefore, he concluded that there was a mastermind behind the Lewis Family.
While everyone else was laying low, only the Lewises were being exposed, which meant that the mastermind might have wanted to bait him to attack the Lewises. Perhaps the mastermind had laid a trap through the Lewises, waiting for Matthew to jump in. If he confronted the Lewises right away, he might get himself into hot water.
After mulling it over, he still decided to make a call to Wilson because he needed the most detailed and updated information on the Lewis Family.
As a member of the Ten Greatest Families, Wilson should be quite knowledgeable about the situation in their circle.
Within half an hour, Wilson had someone send over a few files that were full of information on the Lewis Family.
At the same time, Tiger rushed to the hospital because he was almost done with his investigation into Leia and her friends.
“Matthew! I looked into the guy named Luke. His full name is Luke Bach, and he’s just a street thug. They are active around University Town and rarely visit downtown. They’re good at bullying non-local students, but other than that, they don’t have any powerful background. If you want to deal with them, just give the orders, and I will drag them over!” Tiger said animatedly.
To that, Matthew waved and said, “There’s no rush. Those guys are under arrest for now. Let them stay in jail for a few days. When I’m free, I will deal with them. By the way, here’s some information about the Lewis Family. Come over and take a look.”
He pushed the files toward Tiger, who had a headache just by looking at them.
“Matthew, I-I’m not good at these. Even my junior high school diploma was bought. How could I possibly go through all these documents?”
Speechless, he gave Tiger a look. “How uncultured!”
Tiger merely grinned sheepishly. “Matthew, it’s okay for me to stay uncultured. As long as I follow you, I’m on the right path in life.”
Matthew turned away from Tiger to focus on reading all the information on hand and took a mental note of the Lewis Family’s updates.
He could not pick up anything fishy from the information for now, but he was not worried.
Since the mastermind wanted to lure him into attacking the Lewises, he decided that he would observe further instead of making a careless move.
……
In the evening, Luke rushed over to Checker Bar at University Town, dressed in a new outfit.
“Is Dickson here?” he asked the security guard with a smile.
The guard pointed to the inside, and Luke hurriedly entered. At the entrance, he could already hear the sensual shrieks of women. He grinned, knowing what was going on, and waited at the entrance instead of heading in.
Soon, two women with heavy makeup walked out of the bar while smoothing their clothes.
He looked at them with a longing expression until they vanished from his sight before he knocked on the door.
“Fck! Which bstard is knocking on my door at this time? Get the f*ck in!”
An angry yell was heard from within, after which Luke immediately put on a smile and went in. “Dickson, this is Luke!”
A young man shorter than 5’3 was putting on his clothes in the room. He gave Luke a quick look. “What the f*ck? What are you doing here?”
Luke quickly announced, “Dickson, I saw a rare beauty today. I guarantee that you’d be satisfied with her!”
The Medical Genius’s Unspeakable Marriage Novel Chapter 996
Matthew Larson? Haven’t Heard of Him Before
Dickson had a disdainful look on his face. “What girl would be described as a rare beauty? Dude, you’d better not bluff. I have slept with stars before. If that girl is nowhere as good, you’d better not bring it up!”
Luke chuckled. “Nah, don’t compare her with the girls you’ve slept with. Even the top stars you have not slept with are not as pretty as her! She’s way prettier than the loveliest girl you’ve banged!”
Dickson perked up and glared at him. “You aren’t bluffing, are you? Is she really prettier than the top stars? I don’t believe it!”
He hurriedly confirmed, “Yes. Why would I lie to you? Also, she’s not only a beauty but a rich one as well! She’s that girl who drives a Maserati Quattroporte. Just look at her slim waist and long legs when she gets into the car—she’s even better than Maserati’s current celebrity endorsement! A top-level socialite indeed!”
Dickson’s eyes were sparkling with desire. “Is that true? Where is she? Send her over!”
An awkward expression crept up Luke’s face. “Um, there’s a slight problem here. She has a husband…”
Dickson smirked without care. “So what? I’ve played with many married women over the years. Let me tell you: married women are the best in bed!”
Instantly, Luke smiled. “Ah, Dickson, you’re indeed the playboy. But her husband is… He’s quite good at fighting. Some of my men are hurt by him.”
Dickson frowned after learning that. “Huh! I see that he’s a skilled martial arts practitioner. Wait, you’re not only introducing the pretty girl to me, right? You wanted to indirectly have me take revenge for you.”
After being exposed, Luke looked embarrassed. “Dickson, of course I-I’d want you to take revenge for me. I dropped your name in front of him, but that b*stard did not even flinch. He even said that you are ‘nothing to be afraid of’. S-So, in a way, I am angry on your behalf.”
Right away, Dickson slammed the table and smirked. “Oh, he’s rather impudent, isn’t he? What’s his profession? And what’s his name?”
Luke quickly added, “I’ve checked his background for you. His name is Matthew Larson, and he works at the hospital as a department director.”
After thinking about it for a while, Dickson replied, “Matthew Larson? Haven’t heard of him before. Hmph, he’s nothing.”
At this moment, Luke was overjoyed by Dickson’s comment, as it seemed as if the latter would deal with Matthew. “S-So, Dickson, does this mean you are willing to avenge me?”
Dickson gave him a look. “That depends on your sincerity!”
Without too much hesitation, Luke replied, “Dickson, I am your sincere follower. You’re my boss. If you come across any trouble, I-I will cross mountains and seas to help you.”
Dickson waved at him lazily. “Let’s not talk about the future. How about now? Last time, the girl you brought over seemed quite nice. Why don’t you send her over for me?”
Rather confused by the girl he was referring to, Luke paused slightly before asking, “Uh, when?”
Dickson answered, “The girl you brought over last time… What’s her name again? Leia?”
Luke felt his mind go blank. “B-But Dickson, that’s my girlfriend…”
Dickson shot a look at him. “Your girlfriend? Fck! Aren’t you ashamed after hearing yourself? You motherfcker! You have slept with countless girls in my territory. How dare you talk about girlfriends in front of me now? You’re only with her for fun, right? She’s just a girl. You don’t have to worry that I’d hurt her or anything.”
Despite the shock, Luke forced himself to take a deep breath and analyze the situation. Since he never planned to be in a long-term relationship with Leia anyway, he believed that it was worth it to sacrifice Leia in exchange for Dickson’s support.
Therefore, he nodded. “No problem. Dickson, I’ll arrange that for you.”
Dickson finally broke into a smile and patted him on the shoulder. “Luke, not bad! You’re a rising star. Don’t worry. As long as you are with me, no one in University Town would lay a finger on you! By the way, tell Bruno to get a few men and drag that rich girl over. You say she’s prettier than a top star? I’d love to see it for myself!”
The Medical Genius’s Unspeakable Marriage Novel Chapter 997
An Ambush
Around 10.00PM, Matthew and Sasha drove home after having dinner with their friends. When their car drove past a rather secluded area, two vans appeared out of nowhere and trapped her Maserati from the front and back.
In a split second, out came a few men from the vans, who dashed over to their car. At lightning speed, they opened the door and forcefully yanked Sasha out.
Frowning, Matthew immediately rushed out, placed a hand on the top of the car, and flung himself across, kicking one of the men onto the floor while he was at it.
One of the fellas witnessed that and brandished a machete knife, which he swung at Matthew’s back.
Matthew agilely spun around and dodged the blade that was coming at his back. At the same time, he turned around once more and grabbed the perpetrator’s wrist to snatch the knife. Then, he counterattacked the man by swinging the knife onto his face.
The man let out a chilling scream as the blade dug right into his face. He might have to live with the permanent scar from the severe wound for the rest of his life.
More men came out from the vans, and one of them was Troy, who had followed Luke around in the morning. After Dickson agreed to help Luke, he also ordered to bail Luke’s friends out.
When Troy spotted Matthew, a vindictive look flashed across his eyes. “Bruno, he’s the guy!”
The tanned man standing beside him was Bruno, Dickson’s subordinate. Bruno’s eyes looked cold as he bellowed, “He’s pretty courageous, aye? Hmph, end him!”
At the order, a few men immediately lurched toward Matthew, attacking him with various weapons. Without any delay, he swiftly dashed toward them and landed a direct cross punch on the chest of the first man at the front of the pack.
The unlucky guy was flung to the side from the impact and thrown against the van behind him, causing the windows to shatter.
A sharp look gleamed in Bruno’s eyes, for he was also astonished by the power in Matthew’s punch. While he was in shock, Matthew did not stop—he continued to attack the other men.
This time, he refused to show mercy. If they were only attacking him, he’d feel less incensed. But now, they were obviously attacking Sasha, which had crossed a line, and for that, he had no reason to hold back.
Not long after, the group of seven to eight men was lying on the floor and howling in pain. The expression on Bruno’s face fell. Dang it! Why is he so strong?!
Matthew gave Troy a look before he finally turned to Bruno. “Who ordered you to come for us tonight?”
Bruno chuckled menacingly. “Wanna know? Beat me, and I’ll tell you!”
Without hesitation, Matthew rushed forward, aiming his fist at the man. However, the man wasn’t too scared but merely sneered.
“Fist of the Eight Trigrams? Hmph, taste my Wing Chun boxing skills!”
While speaking, he had raised both of his hands, his right arm swooping down to slap away Matthew’s punch. Still, he had underestimated his opponent’s strength.
When his right arm hit Matthew’s wrist, he felt that he had hit a steel pillar, and he failed to make Matthew’s hand move. At that moment, his expression changed, but it was too late for him to retreat.
Matthew landed a cross punch on his chest, and he could not help but stumble a few steps backward. After he steadied himself, he tasted something sweet and metallic in his throat and vomited blood a few times.
“Is that all you got?” Matthew smirked.
Bruno clenched his jaw and stared at him straight. “W-Who exactly are you? Since when has Eastcliff welcomed a master like you?”
Matthew did not bother to say much and went for the point. “Tell me now. Who asked you to come for us?”
Bruno stubbornly clenched his teeth and revealed nothing.
Matthew gave up asking him and turned to Troy instead. “Why don’t you do me a favor and tell me?”
Shaking like a leaf, Troy replied with a trembling voice, “I-It’s Dickson Lewis!”
Matthew frowned. “Dickson Lewis?”
He remembered the name because Luke had mentioned it a few times in the morning, but at that time, he did not really pay attention to the name. To his surprise, the daredevil sent some men to ambush him at night.
“I haven’t knocked on his door yet, but he’s already coming for me! What is it that he wants?”
The Medical Genius’s Unspeakable Marriage Novel Chapter 998
Dirty Work
Guilty about exposing Dickson, Troy lowered his head, not daring to speak. Bruno gritted his teeth stubbornly.
“Fine! Forget about it!” Matthew shouted, after which he took a step forward. With Mountain Strike, he crashed right into Bruno.
Bruno’s expression shifted as he was taken by surprise. Wasn’t Matthew using the Fist of the Eight Trigrams? When did it become The Northern Eight Fists?
However, before Bruno could react, Matthew had run right into him.
Wait! Why do I feel as if I’m hit by a truck? Uh! He was sent flying from the impact and crashed heavily into the van behind them. The van gave a tremendous shake, and a large indent appeared on the door.
As for Bruno, he had broken bones all over his body and almost died on the spot. Even if his life could be saved, all the martial arts he mastered would go up in flames!
At that moment, Bruno deeply regretted his actions. I should have just told him… It wasn’t worth it to meet an end like this just because he wanted to look tough.
Matthew gave Tiger a call, asking him to come and settle the remaining work. In less than five minutes, Tiger had arrived on the scene with some of his men.
First of all, Matthew had them bring Sasha back. After quickly assessing the situation, Tiger’s men immediately started working on cleaning up the scene.
“Matthew, do you want them dead or alive?” Tiger asked.
Hearing that, Troy trembled uncontrollably. Who on earth had I messed with?
Matthew glanced at them. “They’re just small fry. It doesn’t matter.”
Tiger nodded and called his men to just leave them by the roadside, completely ignoring them afterward. As for Troy, Matthew had special orders for Tiger to bring him back first.
This man must have had a part in bullying Heidi. I will personally deal with him later.
Seeing the men Tiger brought with him, Troy was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and begged for mercy. However, his pleas fell on deaf ears.
The men grabbed Troy by his arms and forcefully dragged him into the car. After Troy was dragged into the car, Matthew asked, “Tiger, do you know someone called Dickson Lewis?”
Tiger thought for a while. “The one at University Town, isn’t it? I know him. He’s the illegitimate son of Donovan, the Lewis Family’s current family head. Donovan favors him a lot. That b*stard is especially sleazy and does all sorts of unforgivable stuff at University Town! He established some nightclubs there, and if he fancied any girl who went to his nightclubs, he would do everything he could to get her. Some people had died over the years because of that, but the Lewis Family had always covered it up.”
Matthew frowned. At that moment, all the questions on his mind found their answers.
Noticing Matthew’s silence, Tiger said in a low voice, “Matthew, shall I bring my men to teach him a lesson? Even if that punk is from the Lewis Family, he’s just asking for trouble if he dared to do those sorts of things. I’ll break a limb or something, and that’ll serve as a warning to the Lewis Family. They should behave better after that!”
Matthew shook his head. “There’s something off about this.”
Something off? Tiger was astonished. “Off? What’s off about it? That punk has been extra sleazy all his life. I’m guessing that he’s aiming for President Cunningham this time—”
Once again, Matthew shook his head. “There’s nothing off about him. I’m more concerned about the Lewis Family.”
Tiger was still lost. “What of the Lewis Family?”
Matthew said in a quiet voice, “Someone’s trying to get me to do the dirty work. They’re trying to get at Donovan!”
Despite Matthew’s explanation, Tiger was still rather confused. “Matthew, you… you’ll have to explain it in simpler terms. You know how slow my brain is. I really don’t understand this difficult stuff.”
Matthew smiled and continued, “Someone was pulling strings behind the scenes in the renovation material incident. They’re trying to lure us into attacking the Lewis Family. I have been wondering what sort of trap they had prepared on the Lewis Family’s side. Everything is clear to me now. This trap wasn’t prepared just for us; it’s also meant for Donovan!”
The Medical Genius’s Unspeakable Marriage Novel Chapter 999
A Trap and a Chance
Even after Matthew’s detailed explanation, Tiger was still lost. “What does that mean?”
Matthew gave him a look. Tiger can do his job well, but he’s utterly hopeless when brainwork is involved.
“Think! After what happened tonight, will I seek revenge on Dickson? Also, according to the way I usually do things, now that Dickson had dared to lay a hand on my wife, I would want him dead. Dickson is Donovan’s illegitimate son, so if I do anything to him, Donovan will definitely come knocking on my door. So, the mastermind would have killed Donovan without getting their hands dirty because I would be the one who killed him.”
A light bulb went off in Tiger’s head. “I see now! So, Matthew, this mastermind is the Lewis Family’s enemy, then… The Lewis Family is on the same boat as us?”
Matthew shook his head. “The Lewis Family is also our enemy. Don’t forget, every renovation material in Eastcliff is under the Lewis Family. We couldn’t buy any materials, so that is definitely the Lewis Family’s doing.”
Once again, Tiger was lost. “I don’t get it, Matthew. If the mastermind wanted Donovan dead, then why is the Lewis Family after us?”
Matthew smiled and replied, “Because the one working with the mastermind isn’t Donovan, but another person in the Lewis Family. Someone in the Lewis Family wants to take Donovan’s place in order to be the new head of the family.”
Tiger was stunned for a while, then he said, “Matthew, you mean… There’s a traitor in the Lewis Family? And they want to seize the throne?”
Calmly, Matthew nodded. “That’s correct.”
Tiger scratched his head. “Matthew, could it be that this traitor had caused all this to happen? And there’s no mastermind? The traitor wanted the throne, so they blocked our access to renovation materials on purpose. They even caused this incident with Dickson and are trying to get at Donovan by your hand.”
Matthew shook his head. “That’s impossible. I read up on the Lewis Family before, and Donovan’s position is still quite stable in the family. This traitor cannot deal with Donovan on their own! So, this traitor must have someone supporting them from the shadows!”
As anticipated, Tiger was puzzled. “Matthew, I don’t understand. If there’s a mastermind behind the scenes, then they could just let Donovan deal with us. Why would they support a new head of the family?”
Matthew smiled as he explained, “Perhaps Donovan wasn’t too cooperative, or he’s too ambitious. All in all, the mastermind found Donovan difficult to control, so they wanted to switch him out for someone more gullible. They wanted to get rid of Donovan by my hand so that they could kill two birds with one stone. The traitor would ascend the throne as the head of the Lewis Family, and the Lewis Family would have a reason to hate me and come at me. Not only that, if I killed Donovan, the Ten Greatest Families would all turn on me at once. When that happens, I would be faced with a force larger than just the Lewis Family!”
Tiger drew in a sharp breath. “You’re kidding, right? Who could that be? Who would do things in such a sinister way?”
Matthew shook his head, for he himself couldn’t pinpoint the identity of the mastermind. However, he had already singled out the greatest suspect: the Hughes Family in Eastshire.
“Clean up the scene, and I’ll pay Dickson a visit!” Matthew ordered.
His orders obviously stunned Tiger. “Matthew, why would you see Dickson after all that? You yourself said that it’s a trap. If you went to see Dickson, then…you will land right in the trap!”
Matthew gave a light laugh. “Since I already know what their trap is, I have nothing to worry about. Also, this may look like a trap now, but it may also be a chance for us! If we do it right, then the Lewis Family will fall completely under my control!”
The Medical Genius’s Unspeakable Marriage Novel Chapter 1000
Sleep With Dickson if You Love Me
Leia was gasping for air when she rushed toward Checker Bar with an excited look on her face. Initially, she was heading back to her university, but Luke called her and told her that he wanted to take her out, so she rushed over happily.
Although she didn’t have any money and even borrowed money from her friends to take a cab, she still made sure to dress up nicely.
Upon seeing Luke, she had a delighted look. “Hubby!”
With a gentle smile, Luke placed his arm around Leia’s shoulders, and they entered the bar together.
Right then, Leia had an ecstatic expression on her face. For a moment, she felt like the happiest girl alive. However, Luke’s facial expression immediately turned serious once they entered a private room. “Leia, do you love me?”
Without even thinking, Leia nodded quickly. “I love you so much, hubby. You’re the only person that I’ve ever loved in my entire life. You’re my entire world.”
Luke nodded with satisfaction. “Would you be willing to do anything for me?”
Again, Leia nodded. “I’ll do anything for you.”
At this moment, Luke confessed passionately, “Leia, running into you is the best thing that happened in my entire life! I don’t even know what I’ve done in my past life to be able to meet you.”
Upon hearing Luke, Leia felt her face go red before her heart started racing, as she really loved it when he was being sweet to her.
After whispering sweet nothings for a few more moments and deciding that it was time, Luke said with a low voice, “Leia, I need you to help me with something tonight. If you don’t, I… I’m done for…”
Confused by the sudden request, Leia asked, “Hubby, what’s wrong? What happened?”
Luke shook his head. “Leia, you have to promise me. You’ll help me, won’t you?”
Although Leia was still lost, she nodded. “I’ll help you no matter what, Luke.”
A grin appeared on Luke’s face at that. “That’s great! Leia, actually… Actually, it’s not really a huge matter, but I hope… I hope you can hang out with Dickson tonight!”
Taken aback, Leia questioned, “Hang out with Dickson? What for? To drink?”
However, Luke shook his head. “No, not to drink but to… spend some time in bed.”
Stunned for a moment, Leia had her facial expression changed completely after that. “Hubby… What are you even talking about? You… You want me to sleep with him?”
Luke nodded while Leia’s eyes widened. “Have you gone insane, hubby? I-I’m your dearest girl! How can you ask me to do something like that?”
Immediately, Luke’s face dropped. “I have no choice, darling. Do you know that Troy and the others might really go to prison? I’ve offended a few of my enemies previously, and they’ve all threatened to kill me. If Dickson can’t help me, I… I’ll really die this time! Dickson said that he would definitely help me if he sleeps with you for a night. In fact, he will support me completely, and I… I’ll become the head of University Town! Leia, you know that I’ve been waiting for this opportunity since forever. If I can control University Town, we will be rich, and I’ll be able to provide for you. Leia, I really have no choice but to ask for your help this time. Please help me, Leia, please. It’s just for one night, just one night…”
Leia’s face turned pale. She never expected someone she loved the most to say something like this.
Staggering backward, she asked with a trembling voice, “Hubby, how… How could you do this to me when I’m the one you love the most?! Are you… ditching me because of your own future?”
Luke quickly tried to assure me. “Leia, this is not for me alone. It’s for us! Our future! Leia, after this night, we will have everything! Leia, I’ll love you forever…”
Still, Leia still shook her head disapprovingly.
Nevertheless, Luke couldn’t help but get annoyed, as Leia didn’t agree to help him after he tried to persuade her.
Slap!
