Later in the office at the hospital, Matthew said in a helpless tone, “Enough; please stop crying. You’ve been crying for over an hour because of what happened in the restaurant and it’s getting annoying.”
Crystal rubbed her puffy eyes. “You knew about their situation back then but why didn’t you tell me? You… You just watched as I yelled at them and you didn’t even stop me. Now, I want to tell them I’m sorry but I can’t find them!”
Hearing this, Matthew replied, “I did stop you but you didn’t listen. Besides, you even threatened to cut ties with me because of this. What else could I do?”
Crystal immediately blushed as she recalled what she said to Matthew a while ago, feeling extremely embarrassed. “How could I have known his situation? I saw that he swindled money so… so I tried to stop him! Should I have turned a blind eye after watching someone swindle?”
After hearing this, Crystal gave it some thought before she nodded seriously and said, “Matthew, you’re right. I was impulsive and didn’t consider the consequences. I promise that from now on, I’ll never act like that again!”
Matthew smiled and nodded in response. In fact, the reason Joseph arranged for Crystal to work with Matthew was because he hoped that Matthew would train her.
When Crystal was younger, she was spoiled and had a bad temper. Moreover, she hung around a group of wealthy second generations and became arrogant and defiant. As such, her haughty character made Joseph worried. She doesn’t have a bad nature. With a little teaching, she can still be brought up in the right way.
Looking at Matthew, Crystal suddenly chuckled and said, “Matthew, after what happened today, I realize that I admire you and like you even more. What should I do?”
Matthew was instantly rendered speechless. Why is this girl always teasing people?
“You can admire me but don’t fall for me. I’m married!” Matthew commented breezily.
Crystal pouted her lips and said, “I don’t care about that so why should you? So what if you’re married? I can be your lover!”
Shocked, Crystal asked, “Why? My dad is well-connected with the hospitals in the city. How is it possible that I won’t be able to find him?”
“You assume that he’s staying in hospitals,” Matthew commented. “However, do you think that they will be at the hospital?”
Crystal was confused. “If they’re not in the hospital, where else can they be?”
Matthew signed helplessly and said, “You’re usually pretty clever. Why are your thoughts suddenly so muddled? Think about it. The man has only one kidney left. Which hospital will be willing to conduct the transplant? What’s the difference between doing that and murder? He’ll definitely not go through legal hospital procedures. Instead, he’ll go to an illegal clinic.”
After hearing this, Crystal had a sudden realization. “Oh my! I almost forgot about that. Then… Then how do I find them?”
