Chapter 483

The next day, Demi went to buy a shirt that Helen liked while asking Liam to get a few bottles of wine.

Then, they went back to convince James and Helen to let them move back. Alas, they succeeded.

For the next couple of days, Demi and Liam had been quiet and proper. After what happened, they no
longer dared to float the idea of getting the house from Matthew.

Seeing this, Sasha was surprised. Has Demi finally changed?

It’d be great if she has!

As for Matthew, he still went to the hospital to work as usual.

In the past, he was by himself in his office, so he could always enjoy peace and tranquility.

Now that Crystal was there, for reasons unbeknownst to him, more patients showed up, but they were all
not of any serious illnesses, so Matthew was able to treat them easily.

Eventually, Matthew found out that these patients did not come here for him—they all came for Crystal.

They were all youngsters, and to them, seeing Crystal, rather than getting treated, was the main purpose
of their visits.



Matthew found it amusing but was not too bothered by it.

Even though he did not really like Crystal, her work performance in recent days had improved
considerably.

Matthew reckoned that he would be happy for her if she could tone down completely and marry a nice
guy.



In the afternoon, when Matthew had just arrived at Cunningham Pharmaceuticals, Julian was seen
standing at the entrance.

“Julian, what’s going on?” Matthew asked curiously.

Looking temperamental, Julian responded, “Matthew, are you coming to the alumni dinner tonight?”

Matthew frowned when he recalled the time when he was in elementary school. He was a nobody in his
class because of how poor his family was, and he was often bullied.

As such, Matthew had never participated in the alumni dinners that took place every year.

“Julian, I’m not going…” Matthew waved his hand.

Julian quickly responded, “Don’t jump the gun first. I wouldn’t be bothered to ask you if it was just a
regular alumni dinner. Ed is coming this time around!”

Matthew’s eyes widened in shock. “What? Ed? I-Is he really going to be there? Are you sure?”

Julian nodded repeatedly, saying, “I’m very sure. Leo called earlier and informed me about it. Besides,
Ed’s getting married, so his fiancée might also be there! Matthew, I feel like the two of us should
definitely be there this time!”

Matthew nodded hard while his eyes turned slightly red.

He still remembered that back in school, he, Julian, and Ed were the ‘Powerful Trio’.

They lived in the same dorm and even sat next to each other in class.

While Ed was slightly shy, which was completely opposite of Julian, if he treated you as a friend, he
would go all out for you.



Back in the days, Matthew was poor and many times he would not have food to eat.

As both of Ed’s parents worked, his family was in a better financial situation, so he would buy Matthew
meals at least twice a week.

Later, after something happened to Matthew’s family, Ed, who had just started working, forked up his
hard-earned fifty thousand and gave it all to Matthew. At that time, he didn’t even ask for a receipt.

If it were not for the fifty thousand, Natalie would have died.

As such, Matthew had always felt indebted to him. However, it was a shame that Ed was sent abroad for
work and had not been back for the past three years.

At that time, Matthew did not even own a mobile phone. So, gradually, the two lost contact with each
other.

As for that fifty thousand, Matthew had not been able to repay Ed. This had become one of Matthew’s
biggest regrets.

Now that Ed was back, Matthew would definitely make it to the alumni dinner this year.

“When is it? And where?” Matthew asked immediately.

Julian chuckled and responded, “Tonight. It may start at 6 PM, but I’ll have to get some supplies at that
time, so I’ll only be there after seven. It’s at Prosperous Hotel. I’ll see you there then!”
