Calmly, Matthew said, “Why would I lie about this? If I say it can be cured, then it will be cured.”
Dennis scoffed. “It’s easy to say when you have no proof. Didn’t you say you could proceed with treatment if you had acupuncture needles?”
Matthew nodded.
Immediately, Dennis challenged him. “Good. I’ll go get some acupuncture needles right away, and you can treat them in front of everyone. Listen here, Matthew. If you fail to treat them, you must admit you’re a fraud. Understand?”
At once, Ed panicked. “Dennis, what are you doing? The results are not immediate with this type of treatment. It’s not possible to see immediate results.”
Dennis snickered. “He claims to be able to do the impossible, so of course he will have to prove it. Matthew, do you accept this challenge? Everyone’s waiting. If you decline, then just admit you’re nothing but a fraud. We’re not fools. You may be able to deceive Mr. Garrison, but you can’t lie to all of us!” novelbin
At once, everyone agreed. It was obvious that they were all doubting Matthew.
Staring at Dennis, Matthew uttered, “No problem, but on one condition—I will only be treating two patients today. Once they’re cured, no one is allowed to come and pester me anymore! I will only accept your challenge if everyone agrees. Otherwise, forget it!”
Upon hearing this, Dennis guffawed. “Matthew, do you really think you’re a holy doctor and everyone will beg you to treat them? I’ll accept your condition on behalf of everyone here.”
Slowly, Matthew nodded. “Great. Go get the needles, then.”
Dennis smirked. “You really don’t know when to give up! Fine, prepare to be humiliated!”
Not long after, Dennis brought back a set of acupuncture needles.
At this moment, Dominic arrived with his wife.
“Director Larson, please consult my wife. Can you cure her illness?” nervously, Dominic asked.
Glancing at Dominic’s wife, Matthew beamed. “Your wife’s illness isn’t difficult to treat. Here, I will insert the needles now.”
Upon hearing this, Dominic was ecstatic. “Thank you so much, Director Larson!”
Dominic then brought his wife to Matthew.
At that moment, Alex looked worried. “Dad, will this work? We’ve been to so many hospitals, and all the doctors have said that her illness can only be controlled. This man hasn’t even seen her medical records, and he claims to be able to cure her with just acupuncture? Is this legitimate?”
Angered, Dominic glared at Alex. “What do you know? Director Larson saved my life, so I have complete trust in his medical skills. Stop talking nonsense and stand aside!”
Alex tried to explain himself albeit feeling slightly annoyed. “Dad, I’m just worried about mom’s health! Her illness is a big deal and we can’t be too careful.”
At this moment, Dennis came over. “Alex, I know Matthew. He’s just a slacker who did not even graduate from vocational school. How could he be a doctor without any educational background? Back then, he would bullsh*t his way through school as well. He can’t be trusted and treating this illness is a big deal. If he’s not careful, he could cause irreversible trauma.”
Upon hearing this, Alex nodded in agreement. “He’s right, Dad. We can’t let him treat mom without thinking it through. How about we consult another doctor?”
