Man With Super Medical Skill (Matthew)

Chapter 2142 Announcing the Gifts

Actually, Old Mrs. Bane didn't really like Matthew, and she even found him a little distasteful. In her

opinion, Matthew probably planned the whole thing. He probably deliberately hurt Anthony's arm just so

that he could treat it with his superior medical skills.

By doing this, not only would Anthony feel guilty, but he would also develop a liking for him. He's so

skilled at playing 'carrot after stick' that nobody noticed anything amiss. He's still so young yet he's

already so cunning. No wonder Roxanne is completely under his spell and he's on her mind all the

time. Meanwhile, he couldn't be bothered to waste a second toward the other regular members of the

Bane Family. NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

When she considered all these factors, she reckoned that Matthew was purposely trying to get into the

good books of the Bane Family's main family. He probably figured that he would use the Banes as a

stepping stone to expand his influence by leeching onto them since they were a powerful family.

At the other side of the party, everyone was already waiting in excitement. So, when Old Mrs. Bane

appeared, they all stood up to welcome her.

Born in one of the top ten families in the country, Old Mrs. Bane was from the Harding Family and her

maiden name was Marissa Harding. Her family had invested in the Martial League since she was

young and had countless disciples within the organization. Over the years, many of those disciples

were now important and influential figures in the Martial League.

Once she was seated in the center seat, everyone immediately started giving her birthday wishes on

behalf of the group they represented. "Happy Birthday, Old Mrs. Bane! We wish you a long, healthy

life!"

Marissa answered them happily, "Thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedules to attend

my birthday party. I'm deeply honored by your presence. Please be at ease and take your seats."

After that, everyone took their seats, and it was time for an important part of the banquet—revealing the

gifts.

This was supposed to be a way to express the thoughts of the guests attending the banquet, but it

slowly turned into a competition due to selfishness and vanity.

"The Damron Family of Bainbridge presents a three-foot angel sculpture." When the master of

ceremonies started speaking, the noises from the crowd died down and the room turned silent before a

round of surprised gasps echoed.

As everyone watched curiously, the sculpture made of gold was carried into the room by ten strong

men with great difficulty.

The sculpture shone brightly and had lifelike features. In addition, it was made of gold and sculptured

by the renowned national sculptor of the country, Chris Morris.

The value of this gift was no less than 290 million, and what made it even more precious was the

sincerity behind such a present. After all, Chris Morris had already announced his retirement a few

years ago because of his age. Yet, Aurelius was able to persuade him out of retirement.

Marissa admired the statue before her as she nodded and said with a smile, "Thank you for the gift, Mr.

Damron."

"It's just a small token of my sincerity. I'm glad that it brought a smile to your face. Again, I would like to

represent the Damron Family and wish you a prosperous, long life!" Aurelius brimmed with pride as he

returned to his seat while enjoying the stares of awe from the crowd.

"The Lullaby Family presents an antique painting from Sir Micah, a set of porcelain vases, and a pair of

rare jade. May Old Mrs. Bane enjoy a long life of abundance."

"King of the South, Master Levi, presents a pair of jade, and the unrivaled swordsman, Mr. Heath Solis,

presents a sword." Updated at Draмаnоvеls.cоm

Their gifts paled in comparison to the ones from the Damron and Lullaby Families. Even though they

were uncommon, they could barely compare to the ones before them.
