Chapter 161

The crack of a fractured sternum echoed through the room.

Howard's body was slammed back, the force sending him crashing to the ground along with his chair, creating a cacophony of chaos.

Propped against the wall, Howard coughed up blood, his face contorted in agony as he groaned. "It hurts! Y-You... Why?"

Matthew's voice was cold as he replied, "Walter said someone would claim that book, and that person is me. He taught you medicine, yet you destroyed his family. That punch should teach you a lesson!" Howard's face contorted in pain, and he showed a hint of surprise amidst his suffering. "My mentor... didn't lie to me? What he said was true? I..."

As he spoke, his voice grew quieter, his gasps weakening.

Matthew turned and walked away, reaching the clinic's entrance where the nurse who had chased the patient away earlier stood.

The nurse flashed a smile at Matthew. "Sir, you're leaving already? Safe travels!"

Matthew's voice was icy. "If you want to sell yourself, go to a nightclub. You'll make more money there. Don't tarnish the nursing profession!"

The nurse stood there, utterly bewildered by the unexpected scolding. Her mouth was agape, unsure of what to say in response.
