Son-in-Law Is a Medical Genius novel Chapter 255

Harvey went stupefied at once.

He had not taken Matthew’s words seriously before this thinking that he was just spouting nonsense.

It was only after the shocking plot twist unfolded did he realize that Matthew really meant what he said because he had had everything premeditated!

“Are you crazy? I can’t believe you have the face to ask for 300 million from us. We merely interrogated you as a murder suspect and the most we can do is to prove that you aren’t the culprit. What makes you think you have the right to ask us to pay you 300 million?” Harvey confronted him anxiously.

Matthew shook his head and clarified, “Nothing is wrong with interrogating me but you have to offer something to compensate for defaming Cunningham Pharmaceuticals and myself.”

Harvey snapped through gritted teeth, “I-I don’t suppose they are worth a compensation of 300 million? How much is Cunningham Pharmaceuticals worth? Even as compensation, tens of thousand will be more than enough. Why do we need to pay you a sum of 300 million?”

Matthew scoffed, “Harvey Jackson, let me ask you—are the evidence in your hands enough to prove that I’m the murderer?”

Harvey opened his mouth but he could not come up with anything to say.

Before this, they had been very adamant that Matthew was the culprit but they only realized all the evidence they found was in fact useless.

Matthew then added, “Although the evidence you have can’t prove that I’m the culprit, you guys still dragged me here to carry out the investigation and even threatened to kill me! That’s a person’s life we’re talking about! I have to risk my life here to undergo the investigation. Now, do you still think 300 million is too much as my compensation?”



Exasperated, Harvey argued, “Y-You’re just trying to spin the story to make it sound logical… As long as your innocence can be proved, we’ll let you go. Who told you that we’re going to kill you?”

Timothy offered his opinion by saying, “It was Mr. Larson who proved his innocence with his own effort. If he was not capable of doing that, he might have had to die an unjust death.”

Harvey, who was left speechless, made an excuse, “But we didn’t kill him in the end, did we?”

Snickering, Timothy challenged, “So, you will only pay the 300 million after killing him, is that what you mean? Harvey Jackson, why don’t I kill you first and pay you 300 million after that?”

With a frown, Old Master Jackson interrupted by saying, “Mr. Wayne, what you said is too far-fetched! After all, this is our family affair. Don’t you think it’s inappropriate of you to meddle with it?”

“I won’t intercept the affair of your family but Mr. Larson is my friend. Since Mr. Larson is involved, I just can’t stand doing nothing to help him. We just want an answer—are you guys going to pay him the 300 million or not?!” Timothy insisted.

Looking ominous, Old Master Jackson confronted him, “Mr. Wayne, are you going to snatch the money from us by force?”

Billy spoke at that juncture, “You’ve described it with too much exaggeration. All we want is justice! Mr. Larson is my friend. He was blamed for something he didn’t do, he was humiliated and he was nearly killed by you guys. Now, he is merely asking for a sum of 300 million as compensation for his loss. I don’t think his request is outrageous.”

Harvey went livid with rage while he refuted, “What he suffered isn’t worth that kind of money. Is his life even worth 300 million?”

Billy jeered, “It seems like you don’t think anyone’s life is worth 300 million, do you? In that case, I’ll offer 300 million to buy your life as well as Connor Jackson’s! How about that?!”

After saying that, Billy suddenly let out a roar which resounded the entire mansion as though an explosion had just occurred somewhere.

Shortly after that, a group of men stormed in from outside carrying one huge box after another into the living room.

They placed all the boxes on the floor close to each other, forming a small heap.

After putting them down, they then opened all the boxes at the same time.

The sight sent the living room uproarious at once while everyone widened their eyes in astonishment.

All the boxes were filled up to the brim by hundred-dollar notes.

How much money was actually contained in all those boxes?

Billy pointed at the boxes and roared, “Here’s 3 billion and I’m buying the lives of the ten members of your family! Are you going to sell them to me?!”

He let out a growl which sent everyone petrified.

Everyone was flabbergasted by the scene which was taking place in front of them.

It was only then did they finally realize how powerful and domineering the First King of Eastcliff was!
