Matthew couldn't help but feel somewhat bereft when he returned. They had held hands as they departed. Yet, he was all alone now.
When he made the final step out of the herb garden, he couldn't resist turning on his heel and taking one last look.
However, he ultimately decided against shaking Mr. Stewart for answers about his mysterious treatment plan.
They were going against Mother Nature and fate just to change Sasha's physique. He shouldn't press for answers when Mr. Stewart's treatment was likely Sacred Mount's well-kept secret. He understood that his concerns wouldn't make a difference when Mr. Stewart had definitely been sworn to secrecy.
Even though he had no ulterior motives and was only worried about Sasha, he shouldn't push his luck and toss Sasha's only chance to the gutter due to his anxiety.
"Matthew?"
Matthew snapped out of his thoughts upon hearing someone calling out to him. Nevertheless, his inattention cost him as he nearly collided with a large tree in front of him.
"Penny for your thoughts, Matthew? You seem out of it."
The crown prince quickly noticed that Sasha wasn't around. So, he instinctively inquired, "Where's Sasha? Didn't she return with you?"
Matthew couldn't help but purse his lips in worry as he briefly recounted the events that led to Sasha's absence.
"Hang on! Aren't you the best of the best in terms of medical skills, Matthew? There's actually someone better than you?"
"When did you become so adept at flattery?" Matthew couldn't help but look at the crown prince in bewilderment.
The crown prince became defensive as he retorted hotly, "What do you mean flattery? I was clearly being honest! Matthew, you are Cathay's Holy Doctor. You're so good that even the Emsgate physicians pale compared to you. No one could possibly dream of competing against you within this country. Aren't I right?"
Matthew jolted as he quickly shook his head. "You are!"
Maybe pigs have learned to fly when I wasn't paying attention! This guy's actually making sense for once!
"Crown prince, have you been secretly studying?" Matthew narrowed his eyes as he scrutinized the crown prince.
"No, I haven't. What of it?" The crown prince tilted his head in confusion.
"I'm just muttering to myself. Anyway, although I do believe that I'm unmatched in terms of medical skills, I'm useless when it comes to altering one's constitution. I deal with ailments, and what have you? Besides, I can't do anything if I don't have the right herbs. Plus, it's not like I can say anything to Sasha. She's like a dog with a bone. I can't stop her when she's so dead set on doing this. If I do manage to dissuade her, by some divine miracle, she won't rest easy for nights on end."
