Man With Super Medical Skill (Matthew) novel Chapter 2530

After the two men took their seats, Valentin apologized for the ruckus his nephew had raised in the banquet hall earlier. Then, he began insinuating to Stellan in a roundabout way, saying, "Stellan, I heard that Matthew had asked to meet you in private today."

There was no need to explain the meaning behind his words. In an instant, Stellan understood what he was hinting at. "Oh, you mean that brat? He probably wants to brag to me about his ambitions."

Valentin raised an eyebrow upon hearing this. "Is that so? Well, Mr. Summit Warden is trying to win you over. Now that there's such a good opportunity, won't you do something about it, Mr. Warrington?"

Stellan wasn't only good at toadying, but he was also proficient at reading people's faces. As soon as Valentin finished speaking, he instantly understood that although Valentin seemed to be joking, he was actually probing his attitude. As the idea flashed across his mind, he replied immediately without any hesitation, "You've got to be kidding, Mr. Yarwood. Although I'm getting older, I still have a keen judgment of the circumstances. No matter how powerful Matthew is, he has to grovel before me in Hulwin's territory. As long as you're still around, he won't be able to cause any trouble." Clever as he was, he stated the facts while flattering Valentin obliquely.

Putting aside the question of whether these words could dispel Valentin's doubts, they did make him particularly happy. This was also the reason why he had always kept Stellan around—it was just that this toady of his had a pleasant way of speaking.

Moreover, before he could ask, Stellan took the initiative to confess, "By the way, Mr. Yarwood, there's one more thing. It seems that Matthew has gained something from Mrs. Slob; he actually asked me to get a mining company for him. What do you think about this?" He had already made a promise to Matthew, and this would definitely be uncovered in the future. Instead of getting exposed later, it was better for him to come forward and confess now. That way, he could also gain Valentin's trust.
