The Great Medical Saint (Matthew)

Chapter 397

Matthew had heard rumors about the Afflictan Sect and the 13 Phantom Needles from Nicholas and had always been deeply intrigued by the medical sect. He hadn't expected the successor to be a woman, which was a surprise to him.

Ted smiled and said, "You've been treating me with needles and bloodletting for three years. Now it's my turn to give you a needle."

Matthew's gaze was cold as he replied, "I'm here to see Dr. Payne. Whether she sees patients or not is none of your business."

Ted was surprised by that mention. He then replied impatiently, "Marcus is dead. This is his wife. If you're looking for Dr. Payne, you might as well go to hell."
