Man With Super Medical Skill (Matthew)
Chapter 2156 The Baeddan Family's Plan

Aurelius received the invitation as well.

As he flipped through the invitation, he looked at it suspiciously. The relationship between the Six Kings of Cathay and the Ten Greatest Families of Cathay hadn't been very stable for some time. What was this Martin Newmont's purpose in bringing them all together?

Besides, as far as he was aware, this was a world-class invitation by the Marine Corps.

Martin was the vice president of the Marine Corps. So, if Aurelius could somehow gain the opportunity to gain an alliance out of this invitation, the man would undoubtedly make an excellent partner. "A meeting on his territory to discuss our cooperation in the development of industries abroad? Hm, I think I'll play your game, after all, Martin Newmont."

On the other side of Emsgate, the citizens were already in a state of outrage and riot.

First, Zayn Baeddan died in a foreign country, then the famous doctor Baltazar Dupont was eliminated. To make matters worse, Orlaith, who went all the way to the capital to avenge Zayn, was almost caught. This string of events agitated and threw the Baeddan family into utter chaos.

The death of the medical genius in their family undoubtedly caused a big rift in the development of the family's medical skills. After all, they had spent a lot of resources to support Zayn's goal to be the new generation's leader in medicine.

The Baeddans even went as far as to send him to Cathay to join the national team of genius doctors. On the one hand, they wanted Zayn to grow under the tutelage of several experienced doctors on the team. On the other hand, they wanted him to win the championship in the Holy Doctor Competition and bring glory and fame to the Baeddan Family.

However, the instant he died, all hope was lost and all their expectations went up in flames.

"Has Orlaith returned?" an old man, who was clearly one of the elders, asked the question slowly at the Baeddan Family meeting.

On the other side of the room, a middle-aged man with an unshaven face heard his question, and his face darkened. Then, he spat out angrily, "What's the use of mentioning that good-for-nothing? If it weren't for her, us Baeddans wouldn't have lost that island."

"Gareth, don't say that. After all, she's still family. If we refuse to help the moment something has gone wrong, not only will our actions ruin our reputation further, but we will lose the trust the entire family has placed in us."

Gareth Baeddan thought over what the old man said for a while before deciding that it was a logical conclusion. Nevertheless, he still couldn't replace it in himself to let go of the frustration in his heart. He couldn't help but grumble inwardly, The Baeddan Island in exchange for Orlaith, the failure's life was a terrible deal. Yet, Gareth knew a losing argument when he saw one. So, all he could do was snort coldly and turn his head away from the old man.

At that point, the room's door was flung open, and everyone in the room immediately straightened up.

The man who sauntered in was none other than the Manager of the Baeddan family. However, his specific identity was unknown.

The only thing everyone knew about him was that no one was allowed to violate his orders. His words were akin to the law within the Baeddan Family. Moreover, several family members that had contested his instructions lost their lives in their fruitless endeavors. After that, the Baeddans knew better than to try their luck. Once one went against his orders, they would be punished accordingly.

The muffled sounds of his footsteps came to a halt when he arrived at the head of the table. Then, he dispassionately swept his gaze across everyone in attendance.

The whole room fell into pin-drop silence with just one look.

When he was certain that he had gotten their absolute attention, he cleared his throat and said, "The head of the Baeddans has come to a decision. One: Orlaith Baeddan has failed her mission. As punishment, she will be removed from her position as leader effective immediately."

After a brief pause, he continued, "Two: All major forces of the Land of Divinity will march into the capital together. Since they wouldn't give us an acceptable explanation, then we will seek justice ourselves." Finally, he bowed slightly before announcing. "As for matters regarding the unification of our forces, I will have to trouble the chiefs to ensure that everything runs smoothly."

After the manager gave his speech, he immediately turned on his heel to leave without a single shred of hesitation. Since he had done his job and given out the order, there was nothing else left for him to do. He wouldn't trouble himself with matters that were below his pay grade. Naturally, it would be left to the chiefs in attendance to figure out the delegations of various tasks in order to bring the head of the Baeddans' plan to fruition.

The next day, bright and early in the morning, the Manager of the Baeddans' announcement, consisting of some embellishments, spread like wildfire throughout Emsgate.

The news described the various unfair treatment suffered by the Elites of Emsgate in Cathay.

When the genius doctor of Emsgate was killed, the law enforcers in Cathay did nothing, allowing the murderer to run free.

Under their intentional misinformation, they labeled Cathay as a country that despised the lives of foreigners. They did everything in their power to slander and tarnish Cathay's reputation, naming it a lawless land.

Thus, it was through the Baeddan Family and their allied forces within the Land of Divinity, that such lies swept across Emsgate, causing an uproar amongst its citizens.
