A total nutjob? Matthew's face darkened. He felt an instant connection with the successor of Harmona Sect like they were kindred spirits.

So, when Matthew heard Pierre being called a nutjob, he wasn't happy about it. "If he's not insane, don't associate him with that word."

Alyssa coldly remarked, "I'm not the only one saying it. Everyone in the town talks about him like that. He's got a weird temper, is stingy, cruel, and holds grudges.

"He worked as a doctor at Eaststone Hospital, which was a pretty respectable job, but his strange personality kept him single. Plus, the older he gets, the odder he becomes."

It was the first time Matthew had heard so many bizarre remarks about someone. "Is this just what you've heard, or do you really know him?"

Alyssa sat down on the nearby chair. A hint of nostalgia flashed in her eyes. She seemed to drift into memories, occasionally smiling to herself.

Suddenly, Alyssa looked pissed off. She took a deep breath before saying, "I know him better than anyone else. We're neighbors and grew up together.

"When we were kids, he was really good at school and always helped me with my homework. If I didn't get something, all I had to do was ask, and he'd help me.

"Especially when we were applying to college, he had an insane SAT score of 1592. He could've gotten into any Ivy League institutions, but he passed on that and decided to study medicine instead."

As Alyssa finished her sentence, her expression was slowly filled with pain.

Matthew was taken aback. He didn't manage to find Pierre, but he ended up finding Alyssa, Pierre's childhood friend.

Unfortunately, Alyssa was now a wealthy woman who spent money on male escorts. The entire thing was simply outrageous.

Alyssa looked even more upset, her voice choking up as she spoke. "I shouldn't have supported him in studying medicine. After he became a doctor, he completely changed.
