The Great Medical Saint (Matthew) novel Chapter 732

Tracy dismissively glanced at Rachel. "No way I'd ever yell so shamelessly! If I were in your shoes, I'd still keep my composure."

Right after saying it, she realized it didn't sound right, so she quickly rephrased it. "If it were me, Matthew wouldn't stand a chance to come anywhere near.

"Have you forgotten? When you first met Matthew, you were always saying he was a creep and acted like he didn't matter.

"You only put up with him to say Mr. Carter Senior's life. Now that he's recovered, I think it's time you started distancing yourself from him."

Rachel thought Tracy was still upset with Matthew because she got fired.

With a gentle smile, Rachel placated Tracy like she was coaxing a child. "Fine. I'll do as you say. I'll steer clear of Matthew from now on."

Rachel knew Tracy pretty well. Even if Tracy got angry, it'd be gone by the next day. Tomorrow, Rachel would be back with Matthew, and the whole thing would be out of Tracy's mind.

Tracy's eyes sparkled with joy and excitement. "Really? I knew you were the best person in the world to me. You'd go above and beyond for me. Don't worry. I'll be there for you always."

Rachel chuckled. "You're so silly. We've been best friends since we were kids. I know you'll look out for me."

On the ninth floor of Opulent Club, Lorraine was playing around. She held a delicate gold balance scale in her hand. The rod was thinner than a pencil, and the small weighing pans were also golden.

She set a small stool in front of the medicine cabinet and stood on it. After opening one of the drawers, she reached in with her hand and took out an eldernroot before closing it. Then, Lorraine came back to her table and started weighing it.

Lillian was startled at this sight. "Put that back right now, Lori. That's an eldernroot. It's expensive."

Matthew couldn't help but scold Ansel. "What are you thinking? That's a precious piece of traditional medicine, and you're letting a child play with it."

Ansel chuckled and replied, "These medicines just sit there, and the medical books are collecting dust. No one even touches them. It's rare to find a child interested in this stuff. If she likes it, I couldn't be happier."

Matthew furrowed her brows. "Still, that's eldernroot we're talking about."

Ansel shook his head. "No matter how valuable it is, it doesn't compare to a child's curiosity. Without that, traditional medicine will fade away."

After chatting with Stanley and Lillian, Matthew spent some time playing with Lorraine. Then, he followed Ansel into a small room.

Matthew took out Plague Compendium and Miracle Healing Banner. "Traditional medicine has almost died out. Back when I was a kid, there used to be many traditional medicine practitioners."
