Upon hearing this, Ed’s eyes turned red immediately. “Mom, what are you talking about? You’re still alive, aren’t you? Please don’t think that way and don’t say silly things. Besides, Matthew is a doctor. He can definitely help you.”
Just then, Ed’s father sighed helplessly. They could not possibly afford medical treatments anymore.
Meanwhile, Ed’s mother waved her hand. “Oh, Ed, let’s not burden Matthew. I know very well about the severity of my illness. At this point, I’m just buying time by eating these medicines. This illness is impossible to cure.”
At once, everyone around nodded in unison. Her illnesses could only be controlled and there was no way it could be cured.
On the other hand, Matthew calmly gazed at Ed’s mother for a moment before checking her pulse.
Ed became nervous. “Matt, what is it?”
“They’re just minor illnesses, and it can easily be treated,” Matthew chuckled. “However, I don’t have my acupuncture needles with me at the moment, so I can’t do anything right now. How about this? I’ll prescribe some medicine for the time being, and you bring her to me at the hospital. Her illness should be cured after three sessions of treatment.”
Upon hearing this, Ed was overjoyed. “Really? Th-That’s fantastic!”
Meanwhile, everyone else was shocked. How was it possible to cure the illnesses Ed’s mother had?
Just then, someone couldn’t help but question Matthew, “Dr. Larson, what did you mean when you said ‘cured’? Do you mean it gets better, or will Mrs. Martinez be completely cured?”
At once, everyone turned their attention toward Matthew. How could these illnesses be completely cured?
“Completely cured, of course,” Matthew chuckled once again.
All of a sudden, a commotion broke out amongst the crowd, and even Dominic questioned him. “Director Larson, is it true? Can she really be completely cured?”
“Of course.” Matthew nodded.
Upon hearing this, Dominic rejoiced. “My wife’s situation is similar to that of Ed’s mother. Does that mean she can be completely cured too?”
Matthew calmly replied, “This can only be confirmed through consultations.”
Anxiously, Dominic said, “I’ll bring her over now. Will you please take a look at her?”
Pondering for a moment, Matthew wondered how he had ended up working instead of helping out for Ed’s wedding.
“Please, Director Larson. I beg you,” Dominic pleaded with Matthew. “This illness has tormented my wife for years, so please help her.”
Ed’s father tried to convince Matthew as well. “Matt, please help Mr. Garrison. He has taken good care of us in this village and his family has always been good to us.”
Upon hearing this, Matthew nodded. “Since Mr. Martinez has already said so, please bring her over. However, I don’t have my acupuncture needles with me today. I can only prescribe some medicine instead of directly treating her.”
At once, Dominic cheered. “Don’t worry about it. Thank you so much, Mr. Larson!”
Over the moon, Dominic got his son and they rushed home.
At this moment, Dennis quietly approached.
Grudgingly, Dennis muttered, “Matthew, are you bullsh*tting? Aunt has a heart disease, diabetes, and other medical complications.
No one in this world can possibly completely cure an illness this severe. The most that can be done is to control the symptoms, and you claim that you can completely cure it? Do you think we’re all fools? Did you bullsh*t your way into becoming the Department Director?”
Everyone looked at Matthew suspiciously. At first, they were impressed and admired him for saving Mr. Garrison, but upon hearing his claims that he could cure terminal illnesses, they started to doubt him and thought he was a fraud.
This was because the things that he had claimed were unbelievable indeed. They thought Mr. Garrison had been tricked as well.
