Chapter 919

He Must Be Fooling Us

After ending the call, Matthew dialed Sasha’s number to discuss this matter with her first. Sasha was
close to cursing at Matthew after she heard what he said. “How dare they ask you to contact Mr. Harrison
after what they did? They didn’t just embarrass themselves the last time, they even made us look bad!
How do they expect us to contact Mr. Harrison right now? Matthew, how could you get yourself involved
in such a thing?”

“I know what you mean,” Matthew uttered with a sigh. “However, I can already foresee what might
happen if we don’t do anything now. Judging by your Aunt Chloe’s personality, she’ll definitely hold a
grudge against us forever. Furthermore, your mother’s relationship with Aunt Chloe would only worsen in
the future—they would be arguing with each other all the time. We’re talking about your cousin’s life now,
anyway. We shouldn’t watch him get an amputation if we’re capable of doing something to stop it!”

Sasha didn’t know what to say after hearing Matthew’s words. She was silent for a while before she let
out a sigh. “I know you’re doing all of this for me, Matthew, but it’s unfair for us to expect so much from
you.”

He chuckled. “How is it unfair toward me? I’ll do what I’m capable of doing. Anyway, I just wanted to tell
you about this because I wanted to ask you to go to the hospital with me. Your mother sounded rather
hesitant as she was speaking earlier. My guess is that the situation isn’t as simple as it sounds.”

She was quiet for a while. “Did she get into trouble again? Ah, forget it. I’ll follow you to the hospital
later.”

In the end, Matthew didn’t contact Mr. Harrison at all—he knew that Mr. Harrison wouldn’t agree to help
Tate. Instead, he gave Dr. York a call. Although he seldom met up with Dr. York, Dr. York had a lot of
respect for Matthew. Upon hearing Matthew’s explanation of the situation, Dr. York instantly agreed to
provide Tate with his services.



Matthew freshened up before he rushed to the hospital. He didn’t offer to provide any treatment as he
didn’t want the rest of the family to know about his medical skills. He knew that it would only cause him
more problems.

In the meantime, Jonah and his family waited around at the hospital anxiously. Minerva couldn’t help but
speak up after 30 minutes had passed. “Matthew hasn’t got back to us, Mom. Is he taking his time on
purpose? Perhaps he didn’t contact Mr. Harrison at all. Perhaps he’s just dragging our time to ensure
that Tate will need to get an amputation in the end!”

Chloe scratched the back of her head. “I don’t think he would do such a thing, would he? Matthew
agreed to help earlier. He wouldn’t fool us, right?”



“Well, he should’ve immediately contacted Mr. Harrison once he agreed to help us,” Minerva reasoned.
“It’s been so long, and we haven’t heard from him yet. What’s going on here? Regardless of whether Mr.
Harrison agrees to help us or not, Matthew should’ve at least informed us by giving us a call, right?”

Chloe was starting to panic as well. “Yeah. Why is he taking so long? Why haven’t we heard anything
from him? Should I give him a call to ask about it?”

Minerva stuck her lower lip out. “What’s the point of asking now? I bet he’s fooling us. We shouldn’t trust
a man like Matthew, Mom! Do you think he would willingly help Tate after what happened in the past?
He’s probably waiting around for Tate to die!”

A threatening look surfaced on Chloe’s face. “How dare he? If anything happens to Tate, I-I’ll make sure
to ruin Matthew’s life!”

At that moment, several loud exclaims came from a distance away. The group of them looked up to see a
few men dressed in white lab coats. They were all surrounding an old man as they made their way to the



operating theatre. Few of the nurses hurried over instantly. “Gosh, what is the dean doing here? Even
some of the associate deans are here too. What’s going on right now?”

“Who’s that old man in the middle? Even the dean seems to respect him!” another person uttered.

“I don’t know,” someone else replied. “I’m guessing the old man’s some big shot. This hospital is one of
the top three hospitals in town. Who could possibly be worthy of our dean’s respect?”
