Man With Super Medical Skill (Matthew)
Chapter 1748

As he spoke, Tiger's eyes turned ice-cold. His expression became hideous as he raised his dagger fiercely. Just by looking at that posture, Julian knew that Tiger was going to kill him this time for sure! He was so scared that he almost peed himself, so he quickly begged for mercy. "Dr. Larson, please forgive me! I swear I won't do that anymore. Just, please! Please spare my life! I'm just a junior. It won't benefit you even if you kill me."

Matthew smirked because he knew that Julian finally took the bait. "Oh, so now you don't want to die? I can spare your life so long as you answer our questions obediently."

Julian's face paled, for he knew well that the questions Matthew was going to ask would not be simple. However, he also knew that if he did not answer them, he would die on the spot. So, he could only agree to Matthew's terms with a nod in the end.

Matthew waved his hand and asked Tiger and his lackeys to bring Julian and the others to separate rooms for questioning, lest these people lied. Matthew himself stayed in this room and sat down slowly. There were not many people left in the room-just those from the Thatcher Family and Adeline.

Adeline was shaking all over uncontrollably. She knew that it was finally time to face her trial. Looking at Matthew sitting next to her, she felt extremely regretful.

She thought about the time when she first met Matthew. At that time, had she agreed to work at Matthew's pharmacy, she would have long since become his aide, and her status in Eastshire would have risen sharply.

However, she had looked down on him and did not take him seriously, and because of that, she had missed the chance. And because she had missed such a golden opportunity, she felt insulted and wanted to grab this chance to prove her ability.

Adeline hooked up with Julian and disregarded her dignity. She initially thought she could improve the status of the Thatcher Family if she helped Julian and that she could continue to be elated. Never in a million years would she dream of such a result.

She did not think she had it in her to shed any tears after all that she had done. Julian did not treat her like a human as he humiliated her using all means. She endured the shame, thinking that she could get what she deserved eventually. So, to end up with such an outcome instead, it was no surprise she would find it hard to accept.

Right then, Aidan had made his move. He walked straight to his daughter and slapped her in the face before following up with a backhand slap as he roared, "On your knees!"

Adeline's cheeks were red from the slaps, but even so, she kneeled on the ground obediently. She had been the apple of the eye of her family since she was born, and her father had never even once laid a finger on her.

However, this time, he slapped her twice in front of so many people. That went to show how disappointed and angry he was at her.

After slapping Adeline, Aidan turned to kneel before Matthew as well and said in a trembling voice, "Mr. Larson, spare the rod, spoil the child. The fact that I have raised such an unfilial daughter is all on me. The Thatcher Family has no complaints with however you wish to punish us. My only wish is that you spare my daughter's life. I am willing to take all the blames for her!"

Adeline could no longer hold her tears in when she heard that. She knew her father was very disappointed in her, and he still loved her deeply. Even if such a thing happened, he would still do everything he could to protect her.

Matthew sipped tea from the cup and placed it upside down on the table before replying softly, "Master Thatcher, the fact that the Thatcher Family has always been siding with me has been the greatest suppor for me, and I would like to thank you for that. However, I can't forgive your daughter for what she has done. But since you are begging on her behalf, then, of course, I will spare her life. I hope that from now on she will never get involved in any matters related to the Ten Greatest Families of Eastshire. Do you understand what I mean?"
