Medical Genius's Unspeakable Marriage

Chapter 264

Matthew laughed out loud and commented, “Samuel Hughes, it seems like you aren’t any better than Harvey Jackson! Both of you are as dumb as doornails!”

His statement sent Samuel into a boiling rage. “What did you say?”

Matthew rose to his feet. Under Samuel’s unflinching gaze, he jerked his hands and broke the ropes that were tied around his body tightly. Material © NôvelDrama.Org.

Samuel’s eyes nearly popped out in astonishment. The ropes he used were sturdy. How strong did Matthew need to be in order to rip them off?

He did not know that Matthew’s physique and capabilities had become so extraordinary after the Divine Skill cultivation. It went way beyond one’s imagination.

Matthew stretched and laughed lightly. “Samuel, do you know why I took that lane instead of the main road just now? I was giving you the chance to kidnap me, you idiot!”

Looking deeply shaken, Samuel suddenly realized he was being manipulated by Matthew yet again.

“Get him!” After giving that instruction to his men, he immediately made a dash toward his car, getting ready to flee the scene.

However, after only taking a step forward, his whole body felt weak and he slumped to the ground.

His entire body felt numb, with not a single ounce of energy left, but he could still think clearly.

He glanced at his men standing next to him and found they too had all collapsed onto the ground.

Samuel was dumbfounded. He could not figure out what was going on.

Matthew crouched down and stared at Samuel. “Samuel Hughes, there’s no use trying to move, because I drugged all of you inside the car just now. I used a colorless and odorless poison, which is capable of making one feel weak and lose all energy. Most importantly, the poison will disappear without leaving a trace after two hours. No doctor, no matter how skillful he is, is able to find out which poison it is!”

Looking flustered, Samuel questioned, “Y-You were prepared for this? Did you know that I would kidnap you all along?”

Matthew sniggered and said, “Oh, Samuel, you should know your enemy as well as yourself in order to succeed. Before you make a move, it’s a good practice to know thy enemy. Not only do you have to know how powerful he is, you also need to understand his personality as well, not to mention his style of doing things.”

Samuel looked deeply shaken, and suddenly realized that Matthew was way out of his league.

In an airy tone, Matthew elaborated, “Ever since the incident at the construction site took place, I’ve started making the effort to carry out an investigation on you to learn about your personality, as well as your style of doing things. You’re a very cocky and cunning man. On top of that, you like to use cruel and nasty means to settle things. Therefore, I specifically designed a plan to lure you into my trap. I kidnapped Zachary Jackson but I didn’t kill him, giving him the chance to call you. Looking at how you did things, you would surely kill Zachary and frame me for his murder.”

Samuel was stupefied. It was only then did he learn what exactly made him inferior to Matthew.

In a soft voice, Matthew continued, “As for the Jacksons, I knew all along that they wouldn’t be too harsh on you. And you, after paying such a heavy price because of it, surely wouldn’t let the matter go so easily. You would want to seek revenge on me. Therefore, I deliberately took the lane just now to lure you into kidnapping me. Samuel Hughes, you really didn’t let me down! You managed to step right into every trap that I set for you. Don’t you think you’ve been cooperating very well with my plan so far?”

Dejectedly, Samuel let out a sigh and mumbled, “Matthew, I’ve really underestimated you all this while. This time, I’m willing to accept my defeat. If you’re willing to let me go, I won’t ever treat you as my enemy.”

Matthew shook his head and said, “Samuel, you have no chance to accept your defeat anymore. Do you remember what I told you before—you can do anything you’d like to me, but you’re not allowed to be disrespectful to my wife, else I will finish you off!”

Looking restless, Samuel reminded him through gritted teeth, “Matthew, don’t you forget that I’m one of the Hughes! Even the Jacksons don’t have the guts to kill me! If I die in Eastcliff, my family would not let you get away with it!”

Matthew chuckled and said, “Don’t worry, I won’t kill you!”

Samuel heaved a sigh of relief.

Matthew then added in a soft voice, “But I can’t say the same for the Jacksons!”
