Chapter 1596 You Better Leave Town
Matthew didn’t know whether to laugh or cry at Maurício’s clumsy reaction. If he had really wanted to kill the doctor, it would have been a piece of cake.“Dr. de Paula, get up and act like a man!” Matthew snapped in irritation. “Use what’s between your legs for something other than penetrating your female patients under questionable consent!”The taunt hit its mark.Maurício sprang to his feet, glaring at Matthew.“What do you mean, questionable?” he shouted at the top of his lungs. “They know exactly what they want, and they leave my office satisfied with the ‘treatment’!”Then Maurício’s eyes widened in horror. He clapped both hands over his mouth, wishing he could cut out his own tongue for being so reckless.Matthew smiled darkly, satisfied that he had forced the confession out of him. He stood up, with nothing else to say.“Looks like we understand each other now, Dr. de Paula. I hope you’re not thinking of blackmailing anyone, otherwise, what you just admitted will be splashed
Chapter 1595 Tell Her the Truth
Maurício had nowhere to hide. He had clearly been caught red-handed.“But what are you saying?” he stammered nervously, his fingers twisting together in guilt. “I didn’t want to do anything like that.”Matthew’s stare turned fierce. “You didn’t hear that revelation directly from Walter, did you?”Maurício swallowed hard. “No... I accidentally overheard it outside Young Mr. Andrade’s office.”Matthew kicked the desk, making Maurício jump in fright. The doctor suddenly felt like he needed a change of pants (pants because he was going commando).“What was that for, Mr. Sterling?” Maurício asked, shrinking back.“A warning not to lie to me,” Matthew said coldly. “No one overhears a conversation like that accidentally.”Maurício’s voice trembled. “It was valuable information — I couldn’t let it go to waste. I... I wanted to have a little talk with Ernesto Alvares, but the patient needed to be brought here urgently.”“Oh, how generous of the doctor who had no business going to the docks in
Chapter 1594 You Guys Aren’t Helping
Maurício was humiliated after Matthew insulted him (deservedly) in front of his patients. He looked at the young businessman with visible impatience.“Mr. Sterling,” he said stiffly, “is there something you’d like to discuss with me? We can, you know, go to my office.”“Since the doctor prefers it that way, lead the way,” Matthew replied coldly. “But let me warn you now: I’m not your type.”Maurício shuddered as if convulsing at the mere idea of touching another man sexually.Juca could not hold back anymore and burst into laughter. Other patients lying in their beds chuckled more discreetly, afraid the doctor might inject them with potassium chloride while they slept.Maurício deliberately left the office door slightly ajar so that no one in the hallway would get the wrong impression about the two of them. Matthew rolled his eyes when he realized the general practitioner had taken the joke seriously.“That must be why your mind is so twisted, doctor,” Matthew said. “Did Linda make a
Chapter 1593 Announcing the Divorce?
Matthew reacted with visible tension when Walter revealed that Maurício knew the truth. Of all people, it had to be someone so nosy and troublesome.“This can’t be happening, Walt,” Matthew said grimly. “Things just keep getting more complicated.”Walter paced aimlessly around the office, running his hands through his hair. “I know, I know...” His voice faltered. “It feels like everything is written against me marrying Linda.”Matthew stepped forward and gripped Walter firmly by both shoulders, forcing his friend to meet his gaze.“Do you love her?” he asked.Walter nodded.“Then fight for her,” Matthew said with cold determination. “Meanwhile, I’ll take care of Maurício de Paula.”Hope flickered in Walter’s expression. “He must have arrived already.”“Then excuse me.”A chill ran down Walter’s spine as he heard the icy tone in Matthew’s voice. Matthew wasn’t joking.He left Walter’s office and strode through the clinic corridors until he found the patient from Silva Oil Company in on
Chapter 1592 Dangerous Discoveries
Ronaldo returned to his office and found Patricia finishing a phone call at the desk.“So, honey? Did Chuck answer?”“Yes, he handled it properly,” Patricia replied with a sweet smile. “Now we just have to wait until we understand why he let Dr. de Paula show up there. It’s not normal for the doctor to ride along with the ambulance paramedics. The paramedics know how to treat patients and transport them to the clinic.”“The more I think about it, the more I believe he went there to provoke Linda,” Ronaldo clicked his tongue. “Good thing she has Walter protecting her.”“And once the drug gang war ends, peace will reign in the Andrade family.” Patricia stood up and walked over to her husband.“You’re so optimistic.” Ronaldo wrapped his arms around her gallantly.“Honey...” Patricia remembered another matter. “Are your parents still planning to bring Jasmine back?”“Yes, they’re waiting for the right moment.” Ronaldo turned serious, aware of how uncomfortable the topic made his beloved w
Chapter 1591 Truths That Break Teeth
After the big commotion, port operations resumed at Silva Oil Company. Ernesto arranged for a forklift with no defects while Linda filled out the report on her tablet. Ronaldo and Patricia showed up.“Hey, we saw the ambulance from my office window. Who got hurt?” Ronaldo asked, with the genuinely concerned tone of a boss.“Juca, Mr. Silva,” Ernesto replied. “But don’t worry. He was treated right away and sent to Andrade Clinic along with that perverted doctor.”“I just hope that so-called doctor doesn’t abuse Juca under the pretense of a prostate exam!” The other workers joked and burst into loud laughter, as crude and rough as ever.Linda, however, blushed to the roots of her hair. Ernesto shot his subordinates a deadly glare.“Enough with the jokes in front of my daughter! Back to work!”The workers quickly returned to their tasks, afraid of being fired. Patricia shook her head as if to say, 'men'...“Well, anyway, it’s good that everything was handled,” Patricia said, looking at L
