Upon hearing that, Jonathan was stunned.
Grace sneered, “Matthew, stop acting like an expert. We studied in the same vocational school and you didn’t even graduate. How dare you claim to be a doctor? You make yourself sound impressive but the truth is, you’re just trash! As a loser, you should’ve stayed humble and continue living off women. Why are you going around deceiving others? You—”
Suddenly, Jonathan shouted angrily, “Shut up!”
Grace was stupefied, wondering what had gotten into Jonathan.
Matthew sniggered. “Not only do I know your condition, but I also know the condition of everyone here.”
Jonathan was stunned “Huh? Wh-What do you mean by everyone?”
Matthew replied, “I mean everyone in your village.”
Jonathan widened his eyes. “Mr. Larson, y-you must be kidding. Wh-What do you know about us?”
Matthew casually extended his arm and pointed at one of the villagers. “You’ll feel bloated at 7 to 8 a.m. every day and after 9 p.m., you can’t sleep due to hunger. No matter how much you eat that night, you’ll still have supper.”
That villager widened his eyes. “H-How did you know that?”
After glancing at Master Hanson, Matthew sneered, “Jonathan, didn’t you ask me why I said that all of you deserve to die? I’ll answer that now. It’s because you trusted this con man who will lead all of you to your demise!”
Upon hearing that, everyone at the scene burst into an uproar.
Master Hanson immediately blew his top. He pointed at Matthew and shouted, “What did you say? My teacher is Master Herold and I’m considered Dr. Ellis’s apprentice. Do you know that I’m a distinguished guest for countless nobles and eminent high officials in Eastcliff, and even the entire Eastshire? Who do you think you are to talk to me so rudely?!”
Leo immediately chimed in, “Matthew, how dare you?! Do you think that you can do as you please because your wife is from a rich family? Your assets are just a drop in the ocean in Master Hanson’s eyes. How dare you talk rudely to Master Hanson? You’re digging your own grave! Now, kneel and kowtow to Master Hanson to apologize. Perhaps he’ll spare your life. Otherwise, even your wife and her family will pay for this!”
Grace scoffed as well. “Matthew, it’s up to you now. This is the time for you to repay your wife after living off of her for years. By kneeling and kowtowing, you can save her and her family. Isn’t that a bargain?”
