    Chapter 837 The Arrogant Department Director


    Ever since Matthew discovered about the centipedes in theke of Lakeside Garden and the curse on


    Leanne’s best friend, he had already begun to suspect those from Orleans were to me for the


    cascade of catastrophic chaos. While they were scattered everywhere, he believed that they were after


    someone whom he reckoned was none other than Jinny. Nheless, he had no idea why they were


    looking for her and was hence prompted to find out more about it. As a result, he asked Jinny to stay put


    in Lakeside Garden, which he deemed was the safest ce for her.


    Meanwhile, Matthew and Crystal visited the first victim in their investigation of unusual medical cases at


    a nearby hospital. Since she had tagged along, he didn’t face much trouble before he finally met the


    patient. The said person was isted in a separate ward and his entire body was swollen. Even his facial


    features had a frightening aura since his swollen flesh was sandwiching it.


    Soon, a department director, who looked like he was in his thirties, led them both to the ward. While he


    seemed to be a young director with a promising future for his age, his arrogance was written all over his


    face. As his gaze was on Crystal most of the time, he didn’t bother to even glimpse at Matthew.


    “


    We’ve been running tests after tests on the patient but still failed to find out what’s wrong. Every time the


    clock strikes two after midnight, he will show signs of pain and agony, yet none of our attempts to


    alleviate his pain has appeared to work effectively thus far. Therefore, I have turned to my mentor,


    Frederick Morgan from Mightwater, for help, but even he doesn’t seem to have any clue about what


    happened. By the way, have you guys heard about him before?”


    The man observed her expression while introducing his mentor to her. After all, he was a famous doctor


    in Mightwater and he always took pride in being his apprentice.


    As she sensed his egoistic intention to boast, Crystal pouted and replied, “You mean Dr. Morgan? Oh, I


    think I can remember who he is. He came to my house to visit my grandpa two years ago. In fact, he


    swung by three times, only to find my grandpa away each time.”


    Frederick’s eyes widened in disbelief. “W-What kind of nonsense are you talking about, miss? My mentor


    is the perfect example that everyone in the medical world is trying to emte, and you’re saying he


    visited your grandpa? If he really came to Eastcliff, there would have been a dozen people or so wanting


    to visit him.”


    “Is that so?” Crystal chuckled sarcastically. “Please ask him whether he has the guts to make Joseph


    Harrison visit him.”


    “Joseph Harrison? Who the…” He pursed his lips shortly before his expression changed. “Wait a second.


    Did you just say Joseph Harrison? Are you talking about Mr. Harrison?”

    “What do you think?” she asked.


    The department director appeared to look stunned as he stared at her for a few moments before he


    carefully asked, “A-Are you Mr. Harrison’s granddaughter?”


    “Why don’t you tell me?” Crystal responded.


    At that moment, the man recalled the dean’s words over the phone as he was told to receive Matthew


    and Crystal with hospitality. Our dean has never treated anyone so politely unless he is dealing with a


    bigshot.


    When that thought came to the department director’s mind, he connected the dots with her name,


    whereupon his heart sank with fear. Oh my God! She must be Mr. Harrison’s granddaughter. His face


    flushed in embarrassment upon the shocking realization.


    Although Frederick was famous, he was still outssed by the likes of Joseph. Therefore, it shouldn’t


    havee as a surprise to the department director for Frederick to have visited Joseph. Thus, the


    department director was immediately overwhelmed by his shame for boasting in front of Joseph’s


    granddaughter. “I’m sorry, Miss Harrisson. I-I didn’t know you were Mr. Harrison’s granddaughter. Please


    forgive me for my rudeness. If you need anything, you’re wee to let me know.” The man quickly


    apologized and offered to help.


    However, Crystal waved her hand in annoyance and replied, “Alright, you may excuse yourself. We’re


    here to treat the patient, not listen to your cock-and-bull stories.”


    The department director’s cheeks flushed as he reluctantly walked away. Then, he stood by the door with


    a mad expression. “You want to treat that patient? I want to see how you can treat him because if you


    can’t, you’re going to be a disgrace to Mr. Harrison himself!”
