The Great Medical Saint (Matthew) novel Chapter 706

Rose hummed in acknowledgment before hurrying off.

Kingston walked up to Matthew. "Do you know her? Why didn't you say anything?"

Matthew shook his head. "I wouldn't say I know her. I've only seen her twice, and I wouldn't be able to tell just from her back."

Sitting at the bar, Kingston sulked and grumbled, "No way. If you've only met twice, why is she acting so cozy with you?"

The two of them were still chatting when Rose came back about five minutes later.

With a slightly serious look on her face, Rose gestured toward the office. "Come to my office. I have something to discuss with you."

Noticing Rose's expression, Matthew got curious about what she wanted to discuss and headed to the office with Kingston.

It was a woman's office, with roses on the desk and a faint perfume scent permeating the air. Even the lighting had a soft red hue, filling the room with a rosy glow.

Matthew sat down and asked, "What's up? Why did we have to talk in the office?"

Rose gave Kingston a once-over. "Is he Kingston Wooler?"

Matthew immediately got on guard, keeping his eyes fixed on Rose as he waited for her explanation.

Rose could tell Matthew was on edge, so she explained, "You've made some enemies, Matthew. Someone just paid us to dig into you and Kingston, but I have to keep their identity confidential. It's part of the job, and I can't break the rules. Don't ask me who are they because I won't tell you anyway."

"Is it the Fuller family from Mistvale City?" Matthew didn't hesitate to name the client who paid for the information.

Rose was flabbergasted. "H-how do you know that?"

Matthew chuckled and explained, "Kingston and I only crossed the Fullers. No one else comes to mind."

Rose nodded as Matthew's explanation added up. She remarked with a grin, "I really admire you, Matthew. You're capable, decisive, and get things done fast. I'm sure you'll make it big someday.

"But that's for the future. As of now, you're still flying under the radar. I thought I'd offer you some advice. Would you like to hear it?"
