Man With Super Medical Skill (Matthew) novel Chapter 990

Chapter 990 Leave It to Me

Heidi’s daughter left Heidi with a mixture of disappointment and frustration, and at that moment, she could only express her heavy emotions with tears. Sigh…

Helen looked on helplessly. “Since when did Leia turn into such a character?”

“I have no idea as well. She was not too difficult during high school, but half a year of college changed her a lot. She keeps buying new clothes and makeup, never tired of dolling and dressing up. When she comes back to visit me, she has the habit of staying out all night. She seems to be having fun all the time and only comes to me when she needs money. Nowadays, there is nothing left to be said between us, except for the topic of money. Sigh. Tell me, why did she end up this way?”

Heidi nodded in agreement and sighed. “I told her countless times not to hang out with those people, but she… refused to listen. I am at the end of my wits.”

After giving it some serious thought, Matthew whispered, “Heidi, just focus on getting better. When I get back, I’ll look into those college friends of hers.”

That prompted Heidi to wave her hand frantically. “Matthew, you should not do that! We don’t even know what their backgrounds are. By the looks of it, they are a gang of hooligans. Look… This injury on me was from the time they knocked me over.”

To that, Matthew merely smiled. “No worries! Hooligans? They’re the easiest to deal with!”

Helen quickly chimed in with furious nodding, “Yeah, Heidi. You don’t have to worry. Indeed, Matthew is trustworthy!”

After a couple of incidents of late, even Helen underwent a change in attitude toward Matthew. Moreover, she was reassured after knowing that Tiger would always lend him a helping hand.

Hooligans? They are nothing but flies in front of Tiger!

……

At the same time, he informed Matthew of a piece of bad news: someone was intentionally raising the prices of renovation materials for the Lakeside Garden neighborhood.

As of now, the price of the raw materials was three times more expensive than its original price, and some rare materials even saw their prices inflated as much as five times. What was more horrible was the supply crunch. Hence, even if they could afford to pay more, they might not even get the supply on time.

Under the current circumstances, they would have to absorb a greater loss in order to renovate the entire neighborhood.

The increased cost was not the core issue. In reality, the more critical issue was the shortage of material, because that would lead to a delay in the project. If that happened, they would risk missing the completion deadline.

Hearing that, Matthew instantly frowned. “Why would the price of construction materials suddenly shoot up? And why is there a supply problem?”

Tiger replied somberly, “Mr. Larson, I suspect that someone is secretly sabotaging us. They must have purposely stocked away the materials that are hard to come by so that we end up with nothing. Then, we would miss the completion deadline. Our buyers are the elites of Eastcliff! Even the Ten Greatest Families are our clients. If we miss the deadline, we will get ourselves into greater trouble!”
