The Great Medical Saint

Seeing how enthusiastically Ansel was speaking, Matthew got all fired up as well. But then he said wryly, "I don't want to stand out too much, and I don't want to have to fight or kill someone! I only hope things go smoothly for me."

There wasn't a single time when Matthew was able to finish his mission smoothly, and he felt drained because of it.

Ansel raised his brows and asked, "Why are you acting like an old man when you're still so young? Where's your drive? I'm telling you, you should be going out there and making a name for yourself while you're still young!"

But Matthew shook his head and said, "I don't want to get famous or anything like that."

Upon hearing his answer, Ansel realized that something was up. "Why not?"

As the images of his parents and Lorraine's sweet smile flashed past Matthew's mind, he began to worry and said, "Why would I need the fame? I just want to live my life peacefully and make sure my parents' and my daughter live happily."

Ansel was a little taken aback. He looked at Matthew and said, "This mindset of yours doesn't really seem fitting for your age. But... you're not destined to have an ordinary life as a Juprus.

"Whatever. Let's leave it at that first. There's something else you shouldn't forget, and that is to help Tony apply for his medical license certificate. When I was talking to him earlier today, he kept bringing it up."

Matthew nodded. "I'll do it for him tomorrow. Afterward, I'll start looking for the successor of the Harmona Sect."

It was cloudy the next day in Lambda City, and gloomy clouds were brewing over the city.

Matthew carried Lorraine as he walked and said, "Remember to drink more water at school, and don't overeat. It's good enough that you fill your stomach."

Lorraine was fiddling with Matthew's ears and replied in a child-like tone, "Okay. I know that drinking more water will help me avoid getting a sore throat and that overeating can easily lead to indigestion. I got it all, Dad."

Then, Matthew stroked Lorraine's head and praised, "That's right. Lori, you're such a smart little girl!"

Lorraine said delightedly, "Of course, I am! Dad, can I ask you something? What should I do if someone hits me?"

Matthew's first line of thought was that Lorraine was beaten by someone, which pricked at his heart. Then, he shrank his neck a little at the thought.

He felt both distressed and angry as he asked with a trace of anger in his tone, "Who hit you?"

Lorraine had never seen Matthew so angry, so she pouted and said, "Dad, I'm just asking what I should do."

Matthew very much liked to reply with, "I'll find him and deal with him". However, he realized that he should teach Lorraine how to deal with those situations when he wasn't there with her.

As such, he thought for a moment before he said, "You should look for the teacher if it happened at school. Your teacher will surely help you."

But Lorraine shook her head and said, "Dad, you don't know how school works at all. The teachers don't care about it. Some kids don't even listen to the teachers, and they're not scared of the teachers at all."

Matthew frowned. Back when he was in school, he was most afraid of his teachers, so he couldn't relate to or understand what Lorraine said. "Why aren't they scared of the teachers?"

Lorraine huffed and said, "Last time,

there was a teacher who made a kid stand on the podium as a

punishment, and the kid's mother came tooking for the teacher

afterward. Then, the teen

apologized to the kid, even when the kid said she didn't need to. The kid's mother was so scary and scolded the teacher till the teacher cried."

Matthew was stunned. It seemed a little too ridiculous for him to believe, but he gave it a thought. It seemed to be true because he remembered how absurd Howard's parents were.

How could he deal with this sort of

situation if Lorraine was beaten by some other kid? Matthew started to ponder, and after a long while, he finally said, "If someone else hits you get your teacher to call me. I'll settle it for you."

If Lorraine were a boy, Matthew would have taught her how to fight. But she was a girl, so he couldn't bear for her to get into a fight with someone else or let her get hurt.

Hearing his response, Lorraine smiled and said, "I knew it. You're the strongest, Dad! Here's a kiss, Dad."

After she said that, Lorraine kissed Matthew on the lips. Right after, Matthew put Lorraine down with a smile and watched as she skipped into the school grounds before he left.

Matthew headed straight to the health department. He had to apply for a medical license certificate for Tony today, and he finally arrived at the entrance half an hour later.

However, Matthew frowned when the gate wasn't opened. He didn't know why he wasn't allowed entry.

Then, he looked at the guard booth

and saw a chubby man in his mid-30s sitting inside the guard booth. He was sweating buckets, and he was constantly tapping on his phone with his thumbs. Clearly, he was playing a game on his phone.

Matthew put on a smile and yelled, "Sir, could you let me in? I've got something to do here."

Javier Cole, the security guard in the guard booth, lifted his head to take a glance at Matthew before he scoffed. Then, he continued playing his game.

Met with this situation, Matthew could only get down the car and walk toward the guard booth. He then smiled and said again, "Sir, could I trouble you to open the gate?"

But Javier ignored him and played his game.noveldrama

Hence, Matthew raised his voice and said, "Sir, could you please open the gate?"

In response, Javier slammed his phone down on the desk and roared at Matthew

in a fit of rage, "Sir this, sir that. Shut the fuck up! Can't you see that I'm busy?"

At once, Matthew's smile disappeared, and he remained silent.

Right then, Javier spat out coldly, "Who are you to ask me to open the gate for you? Do you know where you're at? This is the health department, not your home! Not anyone can drive in and out as they wish."
