Chapter 60
One minute?
Tracy curled her lips. In her eyes, Matthew was a loser. He had been to jail, had lost all of his assets, and his wife had
left him.
He had no money, no skills, and a lot of bad habits.
She had graduated from a prestigious university and was sought after by Fortune Global 500 companies. She had only joined Wealthwave Group because of Rachel.
She had never taken Matthew seriously. But now, he was saying that he could solve the problem she and Rachel. couldn’t solve, and that too in just one minute.
It was simply absurd.
“Matthew, you said you could solve it, right? Fine! I’ll time you. Let’s see how you solve it in one minute!”
Rachel also doubted Matthew’s ability to solve it. Mike was a staunch opponent of traditional medicine, and he had been humiliated by Matthew earlier.
If Matthew confronted him, it would only escalate the conflict.
However, Rachel had faith in Matthew. She said, “Give it a try. Regardless of the outcome, don’t start a conflict. If it doesn’t work, we’ll find another way.”
Matthew nodded. Then, he went to the doctor’s office.
Inside, Mike was on the phone. “300 thousand dollars, not a penny less. I’m staking my career on this.”
The voice on the phone sounded weak. “Dr. Abrams, that’s difficult for me. Our newspaper business is losing money, and my funds are limited.”
Mike laughed as he said, “Are you relying on newspaper sales? The money you make from selling papers isn’t enough to buy you tea.
“I’m under a lot of pressure right now and the people from Wealthwave Group just visited me. Without 300 thousand dollars, it’s off. I’ll find someone else to collaborate with.”
The person on the phone immediately agreed. “Alright, 300 thousand dollars! I’ll transfer it to you now.”
Suddenly, a notification sounded on Mike’s phone. As he looked at the phone screen, he clenched his fist in agitation.
At that moment, the door was pushed open.
Mike angrily said, “Who let you in without knocking.”
He stopped without finishing the sentence.
Matthew?
Matthew didn’t beat around the bush and said, “Retract your false statements about willow bark extract!”
Seeing Matthew infuriated Mike. This guy had lucked out and revived a comatose man! Because of that, James‘ family had discredited Mike and suggested that he should learn from Matthew.
Now, Matthew was demanding that he retract his statements.
“Who do you think you are? You want me to retract my statements?”
Matthew ignored the provocation and continued, “The patient’s condition was unsuitable for using willow bark extract, so the patient’s state wasn’t caused by the medication. It was your misdiagnosis.”
Mike sneered as he replied. “Ridiculous. A quack like you, who hasn’t studied medicine, wants to debate with me, an actual doctor? Don’t you think it’s funny?”
He had mentioned the degrees again!
Matthew gritted his teeth and said, “This isn’t about degrees. It’s about using the right medicine. The wrong medication can harm a whole family.” NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
Mike scoffed. He asked, “Why not mention degrees? I spent 30 years studying, so that’s my advantage. Even if you’re right, even if your skills are better than mine, so what? Do you earn as much as I do? Are you as famous as me?”
Matthew controlled his anger. He repeated, “I’ll say it one more time. Your statements are false.
“Willow bark extract can’t be used on patients with hyperthyroidism. You used the wrong medicine, so retract your false statements immediately!”
Mike took his phone and said, “I just received 300 thousand dollars. That’s the payment for my interview about willow bark extract.”
