Man With Super Medical Skill (Matthew) novel Chapter 1500

Matthew left as soon as he finished his briefing.

Adeline, standing in the doorway of the exit, saw him approach. At that moment, her heart thumped involuntarily.

She tried putting on her prettiest smile before walking toward him, wanting to greet him in front of everyone. If she could exchange words with him here, it might be enough to change their opinions of her. After all, the other wealthy heirs and heiresses could only admire him from afar. She wanted to compensate for her blunder back at the ball as well.

Before she could reach him, though, she was immediately stopped by two heads of families. They surrounded him, just pushing her away as if she was someone inconsequential. When Matthew walked past her, he did not even look at her, like she was invisible.

Adeline was stunned by his treatment of her. She was the eldest daughter of the Thatcher family and had never been treated this way. So, she quickly turned to look at him, wanting to call out to him. Yet, she couldn't do it. She didn't know whether he would ignore her or not. If he did, she would be even more humiliated.

As she watched him leave, she couldn't hold it back anymore. Tears flowed silently down her face. She knew she had missed her chance yet again.

Some people—or things—were lost forever once the opportunity was gone. There would be no room for regret, either.

Only when Matthew had left could the people waiting outside enter the resort. Finally, the respective heads of the family left as well after bowing and greeting the crown prince.

At this thought, she ran out of the banquet. Right now, all she wanted was to find someplace where she could slap herself hard, then cry her heart out.

The following night, Matthew treated the heads of Eastshire's ten great families to a banquet at the Cameron Hotel. It was meant only for the family heads, yet all valued members from each family were present. So, this banquet could probably count as a meeting where everyone could see him.

Everything went smoothly; all ten families were now subservient to him, and no one dared disrespect him even slightly. When Matthew had finished explaining some issues, he allowed Melvin to take care of everything else while he rushed back to Eastcliff overnight.

Something gravely serious had happened there, and he needed to deal with it personally.
