Man With Super Medical Skill (Matthew)
Chapter 2582 Internal Conflicts

Ophelia was filled with worry when she received no news from Matthew after such a long wait. So, she decided to search for him herself. However, just as she stepped out of the yard, she was pleasantly surprised to replace Matthew already at her door.

Still, what angered her was that the Zedler Family security personnel, under the orders of the butler, intended to take action against Holy Doctor Larson. Suddenly, Miles appeared in front of Matthew in the blink of an eye in response to Ophelia's furious rebuke.

"How dare you?!"

As soon as the words left her mouth, the two imposing security guards were knocked far away.

Of course, Miles was not concerned about Matthew's safety. Instead, he was worried that their staff had given him an awful impression of the Zedler Family and frantically wanted to salvage the situation. On the other hand, Ophelia quickly approached Matthew.

"Mr. Larson, I apologize for this. We will provide you with an explanation."

Meanwhile, this was the first time she held such a strong desire to see a member of the opposite sex in her entire life, even though this desire stemmed from her desperate need for the other party's services to treat her ailing grandfather.

So, her expression did a complete 180 after she shot a quick yet sincere apology to Matthew. Then, she swept her gaze across the staff and asked in a deep voice, "Well, Head Butler? What do you have to say for yourself?"

The butler was also an astute man, especially after his years serving under the Zedler Family.

Thus, he quickly came to the realization that this shabbily dressed young man in front of him actually had an extraordinary relationship with Miss Zedler. Hence, he was quick to bow as a scheme to wriggle himself out of this sticky mess formed in his mind.

Therefore, he replied respectfully, "Miss Zedler, these two individuals dared to obstruct this distinguished guest. I am currently reprimanding them."

After that, he glared ferociously at the groaning guards, scaring them into compliance.

Alas, he had forgotten that the person he was talking to was no naive fool.

As a result, Ophelia simply sneered at his poor excuse.

"Should I praise you for your daring or your cleverness? Or are you of the opinion that I, Ophelia Zedler, is a person who is easily fooled by such falsehoods?" "Miss Zedler, I would never-"

Before the butler could finish his sentence, she cut him off, her tone dangerous. "Hmph, save it, Head Butler. I'm rather certain that you're very bold, especially since you actually dared to harm a guest invited by my grandfather."

"I'm afraid the Zedler Family doesn't need a butler like you. Do hand in our resignation letter by the end of the day."

As soon as those words fell from her lips, the butler was aghast.

He didn't expect that this shabbily dressed young man would turn out to be Old Mr. Zedler's guest!

Nonetheless, anger surged within him when he heard that Ophelia was more than ready to dismiss him today.

"Miss Zedler, I have dedicated myself to the Zedler Family for years. Yet, you're going to dismiss me for this... this outsider?!"

"Are you daft as well as hard of hearing? I said to submit a resignation letter. Unless... Do you perhaps prefer to be fired right here and now? If that's the case, then you truly have no one to blame but yourself." The butler's face turned pale in the face of her resolute stance on the matter.

After spluttering in indignation, the butler became fed up as he hissed, "Miss Zedler, the Zedler Family is still under your uncle's control. If you want to dismiss me, you'll have to get Mr. Bennett's and Mr. Erwin's approval."

With that, he turned and left without hesitation.

Although Ophelia knew that the butler had a close relationship with her uncles, she never once expected him to defy her orders openly.

At that moment, she could feel her anger simmering under her skin boiling over.

Even though Miles was also visibly upset by the butler's impudence, he managed to suppress his anger.

"I apologize for the inconvenience, Holy Doctor Larson!"

Matthew, who had been observing the situation, simply nodded without saying a word.

It seemed that the Zedler Family was far from a peaceful family. The fact that a mere butler dared to be so audacious indicated that he had a backer who didn't take orders from Ophelia. Miles felt slightly relieved when he saw Matthew's response.

"Mr. Larson, my grandfather has always held you in high regard. If he knew you were coming, he would be over the moon. Since you're here... Would you like to pay him a visit?" A hint of trepidation appeared on her face as she tentatively gave voice to her suggestion.

After the incident with the butler, her confidence had been completely shattered.

She feared that Holy Doctor Larson would turn on his heels and leave after being treated with such disrespect.

Fortunately, Matthew was a magnanimous person.

"Please lead the way, Miss Zedler. I'll be troubling you during my visit!"
