Chapter 25

Matthew admired Fred's strategy. However, it wasn't the right time to say that. He could only comfort Rachel.

"It's all right. Don't be afraid. I'm here. I'll help you if anything happens."

Rachel looked at Matthew and lost her confidence. "This isn't about curing diseases and saving lives. This is a business battle. You're just a doctor. You wouldn't understand even if I explained." She was already flustered, yet Matthew was boasting.

Matthew felt the need to reveal a little of his background. "I know a few people in Khoitwood. All of them are capable individuals. If you need help, I can introduce them to you. They will ensure you win this competition." Rachel shook her head. "It's not about my health. It's my career that's in trouble. Can these doctors you know help me?

"Don't make things worse, all right? I might not be able to return to the Carter family if I lose this battle. Even Grandpa might not be able to save me."

Realizing she couldn't just sit and wait, she said, "I need to visit the Lloyd family. I have a 50% chance of winning if they're willing to support me."

Matthew remembered someone from the Lloyd family. It was Hugo Lloyd.

Last year, Hugo had had a strange disease and sought treatment from Matthew. After three treatments, Matthew had completely cured Hugo. Hugo had been extremely grateful and sometimes visited him.
