Master of Medicine The Saintly Healer

Matthew exuded a deadly presence after hearing Zane’s threatening words. Suddenly, the surrounding temperature on the hot beach seemed to have dropped drastically.

Zane shuddered in instinctual fear. It felt like a ferocious beast had set its eyes on him.

Out of the blue, someone called from a distance, “Hey, what a surprise to see you here.” Matthew found the voice familiar and looked over. Was that Alex Miller?

The last time Matthew saw Alex was at Opulent Club, where Marty had dragged Alex away.

Matthew didn’t expect to run into Alex here. But he wasn’t close to him in the least, so he just took a glance and then proceeded to ignore Alex.

Having seen Alex, Zane quickly stood up–disregarding Matthew. He enthusiastically greeted, “You’re a busy man, Mr. Miller. I can’t believe I ran into you here. It’s an honor.”

Alex asked absentmindedly, “What are you doing here, Zane?”

Zane casually offered a cigarette to Alex. “We’re sorting out an issue, Mr. Miller. Some idiot got on the wrong side of my men in Brotherhood. I was about to deal with him. If it bothers you, I’ll take him somewhere else.”

Zane liked to show off in front of his men. But in Alex’s presence, he was deferential.

The Brotherhood gang had been around for a decade, but its foundation was shallow compared to the long–standing Miller family. The group was hardly worth mentioning in a Miller’s presence.

Alex knitted his brows together. “Who are you dealing with?”

Zane pointed at Matthew. “That fool-”

Before Zane could finish speaking, Alex slapped him hard. “Who the hell are you calling a fool?”

Shocked, Zane held his stinging cheek and retorted, “You’ve got it wrong, Mr. Miller. I was referring to the guy over there. I wouldn’t dare disrespect you, even if I had nine lives.”

As Zane spoke, he pointed his finger at Matthew again.

“Fuck!” Alex kicked Zane in the stomach, sending the latter to the floor.

He snapped, “I beat you up because you’re disrespecting him. Even I have to be respectful when I see him. And you- acting like a complete idiot–dare talk tough in front of him.”

Upon hearing those words, Zane was flabbergasted. “W–Who is he?”

While Zane was getting hit, his two henchmen and Peony stayed silent to the side. When Alex laid hands on him, they couldn’t do a thing to stop him.

At that moment, they were curious about Matthew.

Alex gnawed at his bottom lip. In truth, he also had no idea about Matthew’s background.

Back then, Marty had dragged Alex home and thoroughly beat him up. He was somewhat unhappy and asked Marty about Matthew.

Marty replied, “If you get on Matthew’s good side, the Miller family will reach new heights. Challenge him and we’re doomed.”

Alex would scoff at those words if anybody else had told him that. But when Marty said it, he couldn’t help but believe

Thus, upon hearing Zane’s question, Alex coldly responded, “You’re not worthy of knowing. Your job now is to kneel

and beg him for forgiveness. If you don’t, I’ll take you out before he does!”

Zane’s henchmen and Peony were terrified as they witnessed the events unfold.

Matthew glanced at Alex and realized that Marty must have filled Alex in. Regardless, he was pleased since it saved him some trouble. “Alright, tell me. Who sent you to Wealthwave Group’s factory and made you drive the workers out?”

that? What does he do for a living? Where does he live?”

Zane shook his head. “I don’t know. I only got to know him ten years ago, when Brotherhood wasn’t established yet.

“Back then, my buddies and I used to spend our time at gambling dens. We met a guy one day who had us run some errands for him. He paid us well each time. Eventually, we used the money to form Brotherhood.”
