The Great Medical Saint (Matthew)

Chapter 3

Although Stanley thought it was all a bit rushed, he went along with Fred's arrangements anyway.

After chatting with Stanely and Lillian a bit more and confirming the arrangements, Fred took his leave with Rachel.

...

Meanwhile, Matthew had arrived at Sagewood Residences. As he gazed at the familiar front gate of the villa, he was overcome with a wave of complex emotions.

After striking it rich for the first time, he had purchased a villa in this prestigious neighborhood. It had been the allure of this very villa that had sparked Tessa's interest and led her to pursue him. Alas, years later, things had completely changed.

As Matthew walked toward the front gate, his gaze was fixed on the courtyard, where three people were standing.

At that moment, two of them stood with their backs to him. Based on their builds, he surmised they were his mother-in-law, Jennifer Baker, and brother-in-law, Xavier.

Meanwhile, a little girl stood before the two, facing him directly.

She looked to be about five or six years old. She was extremely beautiful, with a round, chubby face and a pair of large, sparkling eyes. She was as charming as a little fairy.

With just a single glance, his heart skipped a beat.

That little girl was none other than his daughter, Lorraine.

It appeared Lorraine had done something wrong, and Jennifer and Xavier were reprimanding her for it.

Matthew restrained himself from stepping in. After all, felt that it was important for children to learn from their mistakes, and he didn't want to interfere prematurely without a clear understanding of the situation.

As he recalled the saying, "indulging a child is the same as harming them," Matthew suppressed his urge to intervene and quietly observed the situation.

At that moment, Jennifer reached out and twisted Lorraine's ear. "Are you deaf or something? I've told you countless times that your mother is the only one who truly cares about you. Those two good-for-nothing grandparents of yours must have deliberately badmouthed your mother."

Lorraine's ear hurt so much that she stood on her tiptoes to relieve the pain. With tears streaming down her face, she retorted, "Granny! Grandpa and Grandma didn't say anything nasty about Mom!"

Jennifer chided harshly, "If they hadn't spoken ill of your mother, how would you have gotten the idea that she doesn't love you?"
