Chapter 421 Brought Back An Ungrateful Person
Just as Matthew was hesitating about how to answer, Owen couldn't stand it anymore.
"Ahem."
Matthew and Roseane turned their heads.
Only then did Roseane realize that there was someone else in the room. Did he see her being kissed by Matthew just now?
Her face flushed red instantly as she glared at Matthew.
She said quickly, "I'll go back first."
After she finished speaking, she ran away so fast that Matthew didn't have time to stop her.
Matthew came to his senses and looked at Owen with resentment.
"Don't look at me like that."
"Why haven't you left yet?"
"You still want your legs, don't you?"
"I tiptoed just now so my injured leg is not affected."
"You're quite smart."
Matthew snorted and said, "Well, I've said what I should say. You'd better go back and study more about kidney replacement surgery to make sure that there won't be any problems with the surgery that day."
"Of course, but you really don't want to think about it anymore?"
"No need."
Seeing that he couldn't convince Matthew, Owen didn't say anything more. He came over and checked Matthew's physical data before leaving.
When there was only Matthew left in the ward, he let out a sigh of relief.
Thinking of the kiss just now, he couldn't help smiling.
'I stole a kiss today, and I have to do it more often next time.'
Just then, Bates came in from the outside.
"Sir, the phone has been settled. Braint said that he would have someone send the new phone over tomorrow."
Matthew stopped giggling and nodded gently.
"It's just..."
"What's it?" Seeing Bates's hesitation, Matthew couldn't help frowning.
In the end, Bates reported truthfully.
"Your mother went to find Mr. Valentine today."
Matthew's hand tightened and his frown deepened.
"Why did she go over again? Did she cause trouble?"
"I don't know where she heard that you wanted to donate your kidney, so she went to ask Mr. Valentine about your whereabouts. She also said that all this was planned by Mrs. Valentine. She wanted you to die."
Matthew's gaze sharpened. "How did she find out about this?"
"This..."
"Prepare a car. I'm going to the Valentine residence now."
"But Mr. Valentine told you not to go there."
"Are you my assistant or his assistant?"
Bates lowered his head and said, "I am your assistant, but Mr. Valentine is right. If you go there now, it will only make things worse. Besides, the operation is only two days away. If anything happens to you after you go out..."
"Nothing will happen to me."
Bates thought about it and found that Eliza was right. He could not convince Matthew with these words at all.
So he continued saying what Eliza had taught him, "But Mrs. Valentine said that once you show up, your mother will not let it go easily. If she takes you away by force, it will be difficult for Mr. Valentine to stop her. Without you, Mrs. Comtois will not be able to proceed with her surgery. You know her condition best!"
As expected, Matthew calmed down as soon as he heard this.
His uncle and aunt were right. He should remain calm under such a situation.
He would not let anyone ruin his plan to donate his kidney.
He thought of the phone he had taken away before and felt very lucky.
The news that Mariam was going to get her operation done in this hospital had not been leaked to outsiders. As long as the news was blocked and there was no way for Roseane to spread it, his mother would not be able to find him.
It would not be too late for him to find out who the culprit was after the operation was over!
A trace of coldness flashed across Matthew's eyes. Recently, he always felt that someone had been targeting him behind his back.
"Go and get someone to block the news that we're here. By the way, help me call Xander up. I have something to tell him."
Bates chose to tell him the truth in order to arouse Matthew's vigilance. Seeing that he had calmed down, he nodded.
"I'll go now."
Bates went to look for Xander for him. Matthew thought of his mother's unreasonable character and felt a headache.
After the operation, he had to prepare some gifts for his uncle.
However, his uncle was famous for being hard to please. It was easier to think about how to please his aunt and three little cousins.
...
Not long ago.
In the Valentine residence.
Less than fifteen minutes after Eliza arrived home, the eldest son of the Valentine family and his wife, Lucy, came knocking on their door.
After that, Lucy scolded them with all her might, causing Beau and Eliza to be dumbfounded.
It took a while for them to realize that someone had told Matthew's parents that Matthew was going to donate his kidney to Mariam after confirming that his kidney matched hers. Thus, they came here angrily and asked for an explanation.
After all, this matter was related to Matthew's health, so Beau couldn't be as perfunctory as usual.
Eliza planned to take the children back to the room for their rest first, but she didn't expect that she would be pulled by Lucy after she took a few steps.
"It's all your fault, you little b*tch. I knew you were not a good person."
"It was you who insisted that my son marry that actress and made Matthew be laughed at by others. Now you want Matthew to donate his kidney to the actress's mother!"
"You are so cruel! Everyone knows that you have a good relationship with Roseane. Did you encourage my son to do this? Tell me!"
Lucy was probably really worried and angry this time, so she couldn't control herself at all. She rushed to Eliza and even wanted to fight with her.
Eliza was good at martial arts, but she couldn't use it on her family. Although she didn't have any blood relations with them, it was a fact that Beau had been raised up by the Valentine family. He had more or less owed them a favor, so it wasn't good for her to beat Lucy up.
What's more, Lucy was now a mother who was worried about her child's health. It was understandable that she lost control of her emotions, so Eliza could not attack her.
However, Lucy was too strong and her words were not pleasant at all.
If it was in the past, Eliza would have refuted, but this time, she didn't immediately retort.
Although it was Matthew's own decision to do the screening, as an elder, Eliza did not stop him, because she selfishly agreed with this decision.
Roseane had suffered a lot along the way. If Mariam died of illness, Roseane, who was already in the abyss, would definitely become more depressed.
As Roseane's friend, she truly couldn't bear to see something like this happen.
Just as Lucy was about to scratch Eliza's cheek with her nails, Beau's expression turned cold. He stepped forward and grabbed Lucy's wrist. He pulled her away from Eliza and pushed her to the side.
Lucy immediately stumbled to the ground, her face was a little confused.
But right after that, she cried again as she sat on the ground.
"Two of you joined hands to deal with me. Do you still have a conscience?"
"I knew you didn't have good intentions. You want my son to die so that you can take away the property of the Valentine family, don't you?"
"The old master brought back an ungrateful person back then!"
Beau ignored her and turned his head to look at Eliza worriedly. "Are you all right?"
