Master of Medicine The Saintly Healer

Chapter 82

Just like that, Jeffrey’s pride in getting into the club was gone.

After many years, the woman Jeffrey liked the most ended up with Matthew instead.

This was the biggest insult Jeffrey ever faced as a man. To him, it was worse than being killed.

Furious, Jeffrey clenched his teeth and snarled, “You’re courting death, Matthew.”

William had told Jeffrey not to lay a hand on Matthew. If not for this, Jeffrey would have long since sent his men after Matthew.

Jeffrey couldn’t believe a poor guy like Matthew didn’t know his place. Matthew kept pushing Jeffrey’s buttons until Jeffrey’s urge to kill Matthew flared up again.

With a grim expression, Matthew spat, “I warned you. Don’t mess with me. I don’t pick fights, and I hate holding grudges but I won’t put up with your bullshit.”

Jeffrey coldly scoffed. “Cut the crap. I’ll keep messing with you, what can you do about it? You’re a nobody, and your words are laughable. You’ll regret it if you don’t stay away from Rachel.”

Matthew realized Jeffrey just wouldn’t give up. He was about to say something, but he fell silent as Rachel approached. RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

Rachel handed a card to Matthew and said, “You can come in now.”

Matthew refused to take the membership card. “I don’t want it. I won’t be coming to this place again.”

Rachel was going to say something. But after glancing at Jeffrey, she swallowed her words and put the membership card back in her bag.

Jeffrey noticed this exchange and got even more upset. As a cold beauty, Rachel was always dismissive of Jeffrey, but she was so patient with Matthew,

Jeffrey was puzzled about what went wrong when suddenly a thought came to mind–was sleeping together indeed the quickest way to a woman’s heart?

Thinking about it made Jeffrey lose his mind. Rachel had always been cold to men, but it appeared she was just another slut. After getting into her bed, she was just a plaything.

Jeffrey was resolved to seize the wealth of the Carter family, then treat Rachel like she was beneath him. He would do everything in his power to make her life miserable.

He had a storm raging inside him, but his face remained expressionless.

Matthew entered the lobby and looked around. He found that the place was uniquely decorated.

Unlike a typical club, the place resembled a miniature landscape. There were potted plants, rockeries, cobblestone paths, and a spring gushing from the rocks, winding down into a stream.

Matthew’s eyes took in the scenery, with a few people passing by every now and then.

Jeffrey glanced at Matthew from the corner of his eyes. Seeing Matthew’s shocked expression, he sneered mockingly.

Upon seeing the guards at the elevator, Jeffrey’s eyes lit up, and he picked up his pace.

Jeffrey turned and called out to Rachel, “Hurry! They’re probably getting impatient.‘

Rachel nodded, but she kept walking at the same pace as Matthew. “Grandpa gave me the membership card. I didn’t know there were so many rules. Don’t overthink it.”

Matthew could tell Rachel felt guilty and comforted her, “Don’t let it bother you. It’s no big deal, and it doesn’t matter

Kachel looked relieved. “Glad to hear that.”

While Matthew chatted with Rachel, Jeffrey had already entered the elevator.

Just as Matthew was about to step into the elevator, a security guard stopped him again. “I’m sorry, sir. You’re not on Jeffrey’s guest list, so you can’t go up to the second floor.”

Matthew was left speechless. These rules were so annoying.

The second floor was restricted as well. As it turned out, it was pointless to get a membership card just now.

Rachel turned to look at Jeffrey. “The host can bring one guest in. Can you talk to the security?”

Jeffrey sported an apologetic look. “Sorry, my guest spot was already filled by someone you know. She’s our former classmate, Hailey Jenkins,”

Rachel furrowed her brows. Matthew was her boyfriend, and leaving him outside would be humiliating for him.

But the business deal was important. If Rachel secured it, it would become the backbone of her family business.

As the president, Rachel didn’t want to miss the opportunity.

At that moment, she finally realized the disparity between her and Matthew in both career and wealth. Simply dismissing it didn’t make it go away.
