Chapter 1661
After advising Matthew to watch out for his own safety, Eleft, thinking he was not fit to be in action due to his
current condition. However, since his mission was to stop Raven, he reckoned he had successfully achieved the
objective by wounding his target and putting him out of action temporarily.
Not long after Eleft, the crown prince suddenly received news about his mother-Poison Spider had been
severely wounded! Needless to say, the crown prince and Matthew quickly made their way to check on Poison
Spider. Fortunately, her injury was not serious, except the fact that she might not be able to walk anytsoon.
When it was later revealed that Zina was the one behind this, the crown prince was furious, threatening to rally
his men to retaliate against Zina.
Poison Spider quickly stopped her son and looked at Matthew, speaking with a deep voice, "Matthew, | need to
return to Mightwater to treat my injury. Would you like to cwith me?"

The crown prince was stunned to hear what his mother said. "Mom, Matthew is the best doctor there is, so why
would you have to wait until you return to Mightwater just to get yourself treated?" "Matthew still has a lot to
deal with after addressing the issue with Neverland Pharmaceuticals, so | doubt he can leave anytsoon."
Poison Spider did not answer the crown prince's question but instead stared at Matthew without blinking.
"Thanks for your understanding." Matthew let out a sigh with a nod toward the crown prince before turning to
Poison Spider and said, "I still have a lot of things to take care of here, so | don't think | can be away until I'm
done."
Poison Spider nodded and said, "Take care then." She then left with the crown prince despite her son's
resistance. While the crown prince did not understand what his mother was thinking, Matthew instantly caught
on to the intention behind her words. After all, he knew Zina had wounded Poison Spider as a warning to make
her leave Granville and stay out of her business. If Poison Spider insisted on sticking around, Zina might strike
again and even kill the crown prince as well.
"With Eout of action due to his injury, Poison Spider knew she would probably have a hard tprotecting
Matthew, which was why she must return to Mightwater with the crown prince to save her son's life. And she had
invited Matthew to calong with her to Mightwater because it would be easier for her to protect him on her
own turf. Nevertheless, Matthew rejected Poison Spider's offer because he was Zina's target. He could
unknowingly put Poison Spider and the crown prince in danger if he went to Mightwater with them. Therefore, he
reckoned it was wiser for him to stay behind for his friends’ sake." When Matthew returned to the motel, he saw
a man standing at the entrance and realized it was Tristan. Without spotting anyone else in sight, Matthew
reckoned he must have waited for Matthew by himself for quite a while. Nonetheless, Tristan still appeared to be
arrogant and haughty as ever until he noticed Matthew's arrival. It was at that moment that his expression was
replaced by an awkward one.
"Mr. Larson-"
As Tristan was about to state his purpose of visiting, Matthew interrupted him by putting up his hand. "I know
what you're about to say, but | won't save Old Master Cosby. So, you may leave now," he rejected the man
directly.
Tristan's face was flushed with humiliation as he gritted his teeth and said, "Please save my grandfather! We will

Matthew shook his head and replied, "Yes, you just said that earlier, but | remain firm with my decision-I will not
save him."
"Why?" Tristan becanxious. "Shouldn't doctors like you save people? There is someone who needs saving
now, so are you going to just stand by and watch him die?! What kind of doctor are you?!" "You're right. Doctors
should save people." Matthew added with a cold voice, "But don't forget-there are also many other people who
are suffering from different diseases. They need saving too, so what makes you think I should prioritize your
grandfather and save him first?"
"My grandfather is the patriarch of the Cosby Family. How can you compare him with the other patients?" Tristan
blurted out.
Matthew looked at Tristan and answered, "I do not believe that anyone's dignity is worth more than the other.
Your grandfather may be the Cosby Family's patriarch, but that doesn't make him any more noble than a beggar
beside the street."
