Chapter 836

Unusual Cases

Sasha and Matthew met up with Tate three days later, only to see Tate with a swollen face and limping.
His behavior was suggestive that he had been severely punished by his father. Thus, just as the couple
expected, Matthew seemed to behave himself better.

Deep in his heart, Tate finally understood that Leanna was not an ordinary lady to be trifled with. While
his usual flirtatious words would work on any other woman, his attempt to charm her had proven to be a
huge mistake that cost him dearly. After all, she was so powerful and influential that she could destroy his
life with just a few mere words. He also couldn’t help but wonder why Matthew could so easily gain her
favor as his jealousy toward Matthew overcame his rational mind.

Meanwhile, Matthew could see Tate’s anger from Tate’s eyes, but he couldn’t care less about it. In his
eyes, Tate was nothing but an immature kid who was emotional and impulsive. Therefore, he didn’t think
it was worth his time to pay so much attention to Tate.

Matthew was more concerned about Minerva as she hadn’t visited The Grand Garden; it was allegedly
because of a foreign man whom she was enamored with. As they knew that Minerva was a big mouth,
Matthew and Sasha couldn’t help but worry about her.

Crystal showed up not too long after he arrived in his office. “Hi, Matthew. Dr. Burton would like to see
you,” she said as she chuckled.

Although there was nothing out of the ordinary with her work attendance, she was only present whenever
Matthew was. If he was not in the office, she would be absent as well. Nevertheless, she was never short
of any admirers as there were several male doctors who kept trying to hit on her until she harshly
rejected them with a scolding.



Although everyone in the hospital was jealous of Matthew, they had no idea why Crystal admired him so
much even though the prettiest woman in Eastcliff was his wife. Fortunately, none of them was aware of
his relationship with Leanna. If they did, they would probably lose their minds.

Matthew stood up and greeted Jordan. “How can I help you, Dr. Burton?”

Jordan had been visiting Lakeside Garden once every few days during this period of time. However, as
Matthew subsequently found it troublesome, he directly duplicated an access card for Jordan so that
they could enter and exit Lakeside Garden whenever they wished. Therefore, he no longer contacted
Matthew to meet up as frequently as he used to whenever he planned to drop by with his wife.



With a dossier holder in his arm, Jordan answered, “Mr. Larson, you told me to research some unusual
medical cases earlier, and here are some that I managed to find. Please have a look.”

Upon hearing the man’s response, Matthew snapped out of his trance and took the files before going
through them. Then, he extracted half of the cases and returned it to Jordan, only taking three files with
him.

A stunned Jordan asked, “Mr. Larson, what are all these three cases about?”

Matthew smiled and answered, “These three are the ones I’ve been searching for. You can look more
into the rest. By the way, I made some remarks on them, which I believe will serve as a lead for you to
investigate those cases further.”

Jordan was elated. “Really? Thank you so much, Mr. Larson!”

In fact, those medical cases were so unusual that no one in the hospital could pinpoint the source of the
illnesses. Thus, he was originally planning to compile them and consult some specialists, so he was



surprised that Matthew could provide him with the answers he was seeking.

Matthew nodded with a smile. “Alright, Dr. Burton, please attend to your business as you must. I’ll take a
look at those cases later on.”

After Jordan nodded and rose to his full height to leave, Matthew perused the files and took a closer look
with a frown. These 3 patients must have been cursed!
