Man With Super Medical Skill (Matthew) novel Chapter 21

While everyone present was stunned at once, Helen asked puzzledly, “W-What suit are you referring to?”

“It’s the one that Mr. Larson wore last night…” Speaking of which, Mr. Walker suddenly spotted Liam and said, “Ah yes, the suit that this gentleman is wearing is the one!”

“T-This suit?” Liam was dumbfounded. Did the suit have to be returned?

“That’s right! Mr. Larson was just trying it on last night. If all of you would like to have it, please purchase it directly!” Mr. Walker said with a smile. “The total price of this set is seven hundred and thirty thousand!”

Liam trembled as he could not fork out that kind of money.

“Have you made a mistake? This suit is a gift for us from Mr. Newman!” Helen said anxiously.

“I’m sure that I’m not mistaken!” Mr. Walker nodded as he explained, “It was indeed collected by Mr. Newman, but he didn’t make a payment for it.”

Helen was left speechless as she went wide-eyed and open-mouthed in shock. Since Billy Newman had sent them a car which cost several millions and a watch which cost nearly a million, she was surprised to learn that he did not pay for the suit which cost only several hundred thousand.

“Forget it, we’re not keeping the suit!” James snapped indignantly.

Reluctantly, Liam removed the attire and handed it to Mr. Walker. Suddenly, Mr. Walker exclaimed in surprise, “T-There’s something wrong with the suit! D-Did you guys alter it?”

Liam was so frightened by Mr. Walker’s question that he quivered and stammered, “I-I only had a very slight alteration done to it. It can be undone…”

“You must be crazy!” Mr. Walker glared at him and snapped. “This is a suit from Armani and it’s purely handmade by Italian tailors! You actually amended the suit?! It has been completely ruined by y’all!”

“It can’t be that serious. We only got a couple of stitches done to it…” replied Helen.

Mr. Walker refuted her furiously, “It can’t be that serious? No alterations should be done to suits like these because they are all custom made! Now, you guys have no choice but to purchase it, because it won’t be merchantable anymore even if I take it back to my store. The price is seven hundred and thirty thousand. Would you prefer to pay it by credit card or cash?”

Every single one of them was stupefied. There was no way they could afford it.

“Y-You’re being rather unreasonable!” In her agitation, Helen confronted him, “What’s so big a deal about doing a couple of stitches to the suit? What’s more, the suit is a gift from Mr. Newman, so why should we pay for it ourselves?”

“I’ll just ask for payment from whoever is in possession of the attire. If you guys are unhappy with this arrangement, please visit Mr. Newman and ask him to pay for it!”

Helen was left speechless because there was no way she had the guts to visit Billy for such an issue.

“If you all refuse to make the payment, I’ll have no choice but to call the police!” Mr. Walker fished out his phone in a threatening manner.

Helen and the rest went panic-stricken, especially Liam, who was so shaken that his forehead was covered with beads of sweat and he looked like he was on the verge of crying. Never had he thought that he would bring such a great mess upon himself by getting the suit altered earlier that morning. Meanwhile, Sasha was pleased to watch the ensuing drama. Finally, she understood what Matthew meant last night—it really wouldn’t do Liam any good by taking the suit as his own.

Out of the blue, Helen shouted at the top of her lungs, “In fact, you should ask Matthew to pay for the suit!”

“Mom, what has this got anything to do with him?” Sasha was eager to defend Matthew.

“Why not?” With her eyes widened, Helen emphasized, “This was given to him by Mr. Newman. Matthew was the one who wore it back and he even sent it as a gift to Liam. Obviously, he was trying to sabotage Liam by giving it to him without paying!”

“He didn’t give him as a gift; it was Liam who snatched it from him!” Sasha countered.

“He was wearing the suit last night. If he didn’t remove it, could Liam strip it off him? I was wondering why he was willing to give it away so readily last night. It turns out that it was his plot to sabotage your brother-in-law! Matthew, I really have no idea you’re actually so poisonous!” Helen spat furiously.

“Mom, t-this is too much…” Sasha chimed in.

“Hmph, I don’t see why? Don’t you understand how a debt should be settled by its debtor? Well, Liam, you may go first and we’ll let Matthew handle this!”
