Chapter 180
Matt downed the cup of tea in one gulp. He said resentfully, "And yet, that brat popped up at such a time and became the son-in-law of Michael, my brother-in-law! Not only that, but he even said he's gonna cure my mother! Isn't he openly vying for my family's inheritance by doing so?!"
"How are you gonna deal with him, then?" Felix asked sinisterly. "Are you gonna kill him?" He had hated Kingsley's guts since the latter ruined the funeral of William, his youngest son. Otherwise, he wouldn't have hired David from the Assassins Market to assassinate Kingsley.
Unfortunately, David had only injured Reene by mistake without even touching a hair on Kingsley’s head!
Upon learning that David had disappeared after failing to kill Kingsley, Felix dared not sleep for two nights in a row. He surmised that Kingsley was probably the right-hand man of an underworld bigwig, which would explain why he had the ability to kill David effortlessly. Seeing that Matt also wanted to deal with Kingsley at this very moment, he couldn't help but want to try assassinating Kingsley again through Matt.
However, Matt shook his head. "This little brat has some clout in the underworld, with many ferocious and vicious lackeys working under him. It won't be easy to kill him."
Felix's eyes flickered for an instant.
"What do you want to do, then?"
"Well, since I can't play rough with him, I guess I can only set him up!" Matt narrowed his eyes. "He's gonna treat a patient at Hill Crest Hospital who's been paralyzed for more than ten years the day after tomorrow. I'm planning to make an issue of this."
"Pffft!" Upon hearing Matt's words, Felix spat out the mouthful of tea that he had just drunk. "Cough... Cough... Did I hear that right? He, a gangster, wants to cure a patient—and a patient who's been paralyzed for more than ten years at that?!" He choked and coughed repeatedly with a look of disbelief.

Matt curled his lips. "You've got no idea how the situation was at the time. That little brat came to visit my mother while carrying a fruit basket. When we ridiculed him, he felt so humiliated that he boasted about what he could do! "
"In that case, Matt, you mean..." "Isn't he talking big? In that case, I’ll put him on the spot and embarrass him in public—forever!" Matt said while grinding his teeth. "I'm planning to invite some renowned experts and specialists in the field of medicine to see how much of a blowhard he is. Once this gets blown out of proportion, he'll definitely not be able to gain a foothold in Cleapolis anymore!"
Upon hearing Matt's words, Felix slapped his thigh. "Marvelous! How marvelous! Why didn't I think of this before?" He clapped his hands and laughed excitedly. "Haha! Kingsley, aren't you so powerful that not even an assassin could kill you? I'm gonna have you mortified this time and make you a universally hated blowhard! Let's see if you'll still have the face to keep on living in Cleapolis!"
Matt's face contorted into a chilling smile at the thought of how Kingsley was going to be mocked and humiliated by everyone. He said to Felix, "Mr. Jacob, I'm afraid that I'll need your help in this matter. The more people we can invite, the more embarrassed that Nicholson guy will be! You are more well-connected than I am. If you take up the matter yourself, he'll surely be condemned to hell forever!" "Sure!" Felix had sinisterness written all over his face. "As it happens, I've sponsored a lot of medical foundations before. I'll call them right away!"
Matt nodded and replied, "I'll go around spreading the news right away. If we work together, we can invite at least over 100 prestigious medical authorities in the next two days!"
After he said that, the two men looked at each other and smiled, as though they had foreseen the scene where Kingsley fled Cleapolis with his tail between his legs after his bragging was exposed!
Over the next day and a half, Matt and Felix used their respective connections and called the medical professionals, including the directors, department heads, and doctors of all the major hospitals in Cleapolis. At the same time, they didn't forget to invite leading medical experts and authorities from medical organizations like the Society for Research in Traditional Medicine, Cleapolis Medical Association, and all the medical foundations.
In an instant, the whole medical community of Cleapolis was astir. Almost everyone in the field of medicine heard that a young man in his thirties had claimed that he was going to cure a patient who had been paralyzed for over ten years via acupuncture, a method of traditional medicine!
Everyone who had heard of this couldn't help but sniff in disdain, swearing inwardly that this young man must be another buffoon who wanted to use the name of ancient healing to draw the public's attention.
