Chapter 430


    Matthew hurriedly helped Billy up. “Mr. Newman, you are being too courteous. All this time, you’ve


    helped me so much. Besides, treating Miss Newman is something I should do.”


    Even so, Billy was still emotional. “Brittany is my everything—she is more important than my life!


    Therefore, saving her is more important than saving me. From today onward, I, Billy Newman, will put


    everything I have at your disposal, Mr. Larson!”


    If those words of his were heard by people from Eastshire, they would be shocked beyond belief. After


    all, Billy Newman was somebody who nearly became the first king of Eastshire. If it wasn’t for the fact


    that he was tied down by the shackles of love, he would have strongly suppressed all the greatest


    families in the six southern provinces back then! Even if he had remained in Eastcliff for many years

    without leaving the city, who in the whole of the six southern provinces would dare to disrespect him?


    Soon, the kitchen finished preparing the gruel. Meanwhile, Brittany changed her clothes and finished


    two bowls of the gruel under the care of several servants. Billy watched from the side with tears in his


    eyes. In the past, she could never finish that much food in an entire day. Now, she was truly cured of


    her disease.


    After that, Matthew prescribed a prescription for her and asked Joseph to make the medicine per the


    prescription. It would act as a nutritional supplement for her. Although she was cured of her disease,


    she had been ill for so long that her body was very weak and deficient in many aspects. Therefore,


    more time was needed for her body to recover to the point she could function like a normal person.


    Still, everything was much simpler now that her hemophilia had been cured.


    Once everything was settled, Matthew left. Billy personally saw him out the door. Simrly, Brittany


    rushed over with the support of two servants. She sincerely said, “Thank you for saving me, Matthew.”


    However, he hurriedly waved her off. “It’s nothing, Miss Newman. It was the least I could do.”


    After saying his goodbyes to the Newmans, Joseph sent Matthew back to the hospital. “By the way, I


    have some information on the pill furnace you asked me to keep an eye out for, Mr. Larson. Nowadays,


    stuff like that is extremely rare. Only a few were preserved from the past. Moreover, most are treated


    like antiques now. So, not many people would sell them. However, I heard that on the outskirts of the


    northern borders, there’s a ce called Woodside. Somebody once brought a pill furnace to sell there.”


    Matthew immediately asked, “Woodside? What sort of ce is that? Is it far?”


    Joseph replied, “It’s not that far. It’s right on the boundaries of Eastshire. However, that ce is where


    the three provinces meet. So, there are all sorts of characters there. Due to theplexity of the


    people living there, many items that cannot be brought out into the open would be sold there. After a


    while, the scale of its development became very big. Nowadays it’s an infamous underground ck


    market. Moreover, the underground ck market opens up once a month. If my calctions are


    correct, we still have some time to prepare until the next opening day.”


    Matthew nodded. “Good. When the ck market opens, I will take a trip down there.”


    Then, Joseph sent Matthew back to the hospital and apologized once again for the things Crystal had


    done to him. At first, he wanted to ask that Crystal be transferred to a different department, but he


    couldn’t say anything after Joseph had said so much. Even though he was dissatisfied with Crystal, he


    still needed to respect the old man.


    Back at the hospital, Matthew noticed from afar that many hospital staff in white coats were pacing


    about in the vicinity of his office. Moreover, they were all men. These people asionally pretended to


    pass by his office and sneakily tried to steal a nce inside. They seemed to be searching for


    something. After that, they walked away in disappointment. Not long after, another batch of people


    came over and did the same thing.


    In response, Matthew felt rather speechless. These people were undoubtedly here for Crystal. Rumors


    of her beauty had spread like wildfire within the hospital. Naturally, that attracted the attention of many.


    Still, Matthew ignored these people and walked straight over. Meanwhile, everybody’s eyes were filled


    with jealousy when they looked at Matthew. Besides, they could not understand why such a beautiful


    woman had been assigned to his department.
