Chapter: 159
One should know that this doctor was well–known across the seven seas. Not only was he good at curing others, but he also had a vast network of connections and was incredibly influential. Just a word from him could change one’s life.
“Dr. Cross, aren’t you resting? Why are you here?” the doctor asked curiously.
“A friend called me saying you were messing around with a patient. Did such a thing happen?” replied Rowanross. He was not happy.
Earlier that day, he had received a call from his biggest savior. He was so happy that he rushed to the hospital as fast as possible.
“A friend?”
Everyone exchanged glances before looking at Matt. In their eyes, only someone noble could be considered a friend of Dr. Cross. In this room, Matt was the only person noble enough.
“Dr. Cross, I’ve heard a lot about you!” At that moment, Matt suddenly stepped forward and introduced himself.
“I’m Matt Laney, from Millsburg. I believe you’ve met my father.”
“Oh…” Rowan replied softly. He scanned the room as if looking for something. He did not even spare Matt a glance.
Shot down by the doctor’s cold response, Matt fell silent awkwardly.
“Sir! Have you lost something recently?” Ross asked.
“Lost something?” Rowan raised his eyebrow.
“What do you mean?”
“Earlier, someone here stole your antidote. Luckily I noticed in time and stopped him so that you won’t suffer any losses!” the doctor said excitedly. Hexanavir was his mentor’s most prized treasure. Now that he had helped return it, he would surely be rewarded.
“Stole my antidote? Who?” Rowan was puzzled.
“It’s him!” exclaimed the doctor as he pointed to someone behind Rowan.
“He’s the one who stole your Hexanavir! He even babbled on about how you gave it to him as a gift. Thankfully I’m smart enough to see through his lies. Otherwise, he would’ve run off with the antidote!”
“Dr. Cross, Dustin’s actions have nothing to do with us. If you want to get him, just get him! It is none of our business.”
“That’s right! Hurry and get rid of him!”
The Nicholson family was afraid to get in trouble, so they all started pointing fingers at the culprit. However, no one expected the dark cloud that fell across Rowan’s face.
“Dustin, what are you still waiting for? Hurry and return the antidote and apologize! If you’re lucky, Dr. Cross might forgive you!”
Dahlia started sending him signals. Although she hated his actions at times, she still felt bad for him when he found himself in bad situations.
“Bastard! You’re done for! You dare steal my mentor’s treasure. No one can save you today!” Ross sneered with a smug look as if he had won.
One should know that although his mentor was kind and forgiving, he was serious when it came to medicine. There was no way he would let Dustin off easily for stealing his antidote!
“Dr. Cross, you’ve done a great job teaching your apprentice. Since this antidote is so precious, I’ll return it to you.“Dustin pulled out the bottle of Hexanavir and threw it over to Rowan.
