Chapter 981

People Like Her Shouldn’t Exist!

Matthew was taken aback by how furious Crystal was. Jokingly, he prompted, “Come on, tell me who it
was that made your blood boil. Maybe I could put them in their place for you.”

Another sigh escaped Crystal as she explained, “A casualty was brought into the hospital yesterday, a
woman in destitute. She’s a single mother, and she came to Eastcliff a few days ago to visit her only
daughter, who is studying in the city, only to discover that she has moved in with some punk outside
school grounds. She got angry and demanded that her daughter go home with her, but in the end, she
got into a heated dispute with that punk and his friends. She was injured when one of them ran her down
with their motorbike.”

Matthew’s brows knitted when he heard this. It was an understatement to say that these punks crossed
the line.

Not waiting for him to interject, Crystal added, “It was only after the woman was admitted that she
found out she had not a single cent in her savings account. At some point, her daughter had withdrawn
all the cash and flat out refused to pay for the woman’s medical fees. She didn’t even bother showing
up to take care of her mother; we had a nurse step in to take care of the woman last night, but the fees
were sponsored by the foundation. This morning, the ingrate of a daughter turned up, and when we
met, I told her to stay and take care of her mother. But lo and behold, that girl literally snapped in my
face and told us to piss off and leave her family matters alone! Could you believe how infuriating she
was? Why do people like her even exist?”

Matthew sighed heavily. “There, there. You shouldn’t get angry over these things, Crystal. As you go on
with this medical charity, you’ll come across people from all walks of life, and then you’ll understand that
the world isn’t as rosy as you would like to think.”

“But I don’t think people like that woman’s daughter deserve to live at all!” she seethed, clearly upset.



He chuckled mildly. “Hey, when did you get so spiteful?”

She rolled her eyes at him, then said, “By the way, there’s a patient in front with a slightly troubling case.
Could you take a look at his conditions?”

Ever since she started the foundation, she would directly ask Matthew for help whenever she
encountered patients with complicated conditions.



Matthew, on the other hand, was more than willing to help out. After all, Crystal’s cause was a noble one,
and he did not hesitate to render her support.

Nodding, he smiled and replied, “Sure. I’m free now anyway. Come along, then.”

The patient Crystal in question was a middle-aged man with underlying conditions that led to
complications, but given Matthew’s skill set, it wasn’t a particularly tedious case at all. With a few
injections, the patient’s condition started to take a turn for the better, and Matthew went on to prescribe
several types of medicine that promised to help the man make full recovery as soon as he completed the
course.

To one side, Crystal watched the patient’s instant relief with amazement and said, “Matthew, why don’t
you just help out with our foundation full time? With your prowess in medicine, all those patients could be
cured without having to spend more than a dime, and our foundation could reach out to save more
patients in need!”

Upon hearing this, Matthew waved his hand to dismiss her suggestion. “Nah, I’m just one man. How
many lives could I save? If your charity does well enough, then you’d be helping out hundreds of
thousands of patients. Now that would be truly impressive!”



Crystal let out a small laugh, and she was just about to say something when raised voices could be
heard coming from outside.

“For heaven’s sake, I made it clear that you can’t be discharged just yet! You were heavily knocked
down, and your internal injuries have barely even healed! What you need now is to be put on bed rest
until you get better. Why must you be so stubborn? Miss Harrison’s foundation has already covered your
medical expenses, so please just stay until the doctor clears you!”

Upon hearing these, Crystal rushed out only to see a woman being held back by a couple of nurses, who
were trying their best to persuade her to stay hospitalized. However, the woman refused and was
adamant about leaving.

Having followed Crystal, Matthew glanced at the scene before him and froze in shock, for he knew this
woman who insisted on leaving. She was none other than Heidi, Sasha’s aunt and the only relative of the
Cunningham Family whom Matthew truly approved of.
