The Great Medical Saint (Matthew)
Chapter 27

Yet, Matthew didn't quite understand the situation. "Where is Mr. Lloyd?"

He had yet to see Hugo. He began to get angry.

Rachel thought he was still upset with her. "Matthew, I know my words were harsh earlier. Please don't be angry. I'll be more careful with my words in the future."

While they were talking, the four men reached the gate. The guard pointed at Matthew and said to Rowan, "Mr. Lloyd, he's the one who asked you to come out and meet him."

Rowan looked Matthew up and down. The more he looked, the angrier he became.

"How dare you ask me to come out to greet you? Do you think my family is a joke?"

Malcolm added fuel to the fire. "What did I say? This man is trying to make a scene. He has no right to enter Lloyd Residence; he's just trying to get an audience. Even if he meets Mr. Lloyd, there's no way they'll enter into a discussion for cooperation." Rachel's face turned pale. The glimmer of hope she'd had was diminished.

Matthew had deceived her. Everything he'd said was a lie. All she had gotten was humiliation and ridicule.

"Matthew... was this necessary? Why couldn't you just tell the truth?" Rachel's voice was filled with disappointment.

Matthew was equally puzzled. "I do know Mr. Lloyd, but not this Mr. Lloyd. I know Hugo."

Rowan sneered. "You want to see my father? You don't even have the right to meet me. Stop dreaming! You're not welcome here. Leave now!"

Malcolm mocked them, saying, "Leave! You don't even have the right to enter Lloyd Residence, let alone gain support!" He then turned and walked away with Quinn.

Rachel's face burned with embarrassment. She had never been so humiliated in her life. She had become a complete joke in front of Malcolm. She no longer believed Matthew.

Hugo had started to lead a reclusive life two years ago. Even Fred couldn't meet him, let alone someone like Matthew with no background or power.

Disappointed, she said, "Why do you have to lie? Now we have no hope at all. Are you happy?"

With that, she turned and left.

Matthew hurried to explain, "It's a misunderstanding! Really! I do know Hugo. Don't leave!"

Rachel snorted. She got into her car and drove off, leaving Matthew alone.

Rowan looked at Matthew and shook his head. It turned out that while such a trick had gotten him out here, it had only led to embarrassment.

The three guards gloated over Matthew's embarrassment.

Matthew's face turned grim. He wished he had saved Hugo's number. It was a total mess.

Just then, a car came to a halt. Rowan went over to open the door.

An elderly man with a cane got out of the car. His hair was gray, and his face was ruddy. He had an intimidating presence.

Hugo looked at Rowan in surprise. "What are you doing here?"

Rowan pointed at Matthew. "He claimed to know me and tricked me into coming out. I was about to send him away when you arrived. Dad, take it slow." Hugo glanced at Matthew and froze. His gaze locked onto Matthew.

"Are... are you... Dr. Grant, the miracle doctor?"
