The Great Medical Saint (Matthew) novel Chapter 789

In Silverbrook Village, located in the Brackenridge district of Lambda City, Matthew was currently playing with Lorraine. Just then, Caleb rushed into the yard with cotton candy in hand. He called out to Lorraine loudly, "Take a look at this, Lori."

When Lorraine saw the cotton candy, she discarded the ball in excitement, saying, "Wow, it's cotton candy! Thanks, Mr. Murphy!"

Caleb smiled. "Here, I bought it for you."

Matthew knew that Caleb had something to tell him, so he asked Lorraine to play by the side for a bit. Pointing to the marble table in the yard, Matthew said, "C'mon, let's take a seat first."

Caleb sat down delightedly and said, "We're completely in the clear today."

Matthew knew what Caleb was referring to. Just a few days ago, some members of The Misfortune's Veil appeared in Silverbrook. Though they moved in secret, they couldn't hide from Caleb's cameras.

It was as if Caleb could oversee everything they did. The assassins might have been hiding and acting discreetly, but nothing could be hidden from Caleb's eyes.

Many assassins from The Misfortune's Veil came over this time, and Caleb had told Matthew that they could probably form an orchestra with the number of assassins that came by. But now, Caleb said that they were in the clear, so it meant that there weren't any more assassins from The Misfortune's Veil.

Even so, Matthew had his guard up and asked, "None of them appeared?"

Caleb shook his head and replied, "None at all."

After a moment's thought, Matthew said, "Let's wait for a little more to confirm things."

Caleb was a little stunned and said, "Mr. Grant, I'm not saying this because I don't want to continue surveilling them, y'know? I'm your employee now. I've dedicated my life to you, so even if you're not gonna task me with a new job, I'll still keep surveilling Silverbrook Village to protect your parents and Lorraine."

Upon hearing that, Matthew pondered for a moment and nodded. "Thanks, then!"

Caleb smiled in return, saying, "You don't have to thank me. Instead, you should thank the old men and women for having to continue tolerating a nightmare like me."

When Matthew thought back to how some of the old men and women cried because they were losing money from gambling with Caleb, he smiled a little. "Take it easy. I wouldn't want their kids to come up to us with the same complaint again."

At that, Caleb said sincerely, "Because of how magnanimous you are."

Matthew knitted his brows together and replied just as seriously, "I'm not being magnanimous but respectful here. I respect your hobbies and hope you'll live life to the fullest in a way that makes you happy."

Caleb was a little taken aback when he heard Matthew say so. Deep down, he felt a tad bit closer to Matthew and started warming up to him. It was as if the man before him wasn't the same man who had gone on a mini massacre at the psychiatric hospital back then.

It also felt as if he was talking to a friend rather than the man who turned out to be a Juprus, belonging to an enigmatic lineage.

Caleb stood up and said, "Alright, I'll head out for a game of cards now."

Lorraine was eating cotton candy when she walked over and coincidentally heard that Caleb was going to gamble. She then huffed out, saying, "Mr. Murphy, I'll stop playing with you if you're gonna go play cards!"

Caleb couldn't help but coo at how cute Lorraine was when she was all puffed up and mad. He smiled at her and said, "It's cool playing Blackjack, y'know? Especially when you win. Do you wanna learn how to play Blackjack? I can teach you and make sure you win too!"
