With Natalie in his arms, Matthew ran to the nearest Carlson Pharmacy, the biggest pharmacy chain in Eastcliff. The owner, Stanley Carlson, was a significant figure in the medical business in Eastcliff.

The largest part of the Cunningham’s sales was so dependent on the Carlson Group that the latter controlled and supported the financial lifeline of the Cunninghams. Every one of Carlson Group’s pharmacies had a highly skilled in-house doctor.

When Matthew went into the store with a girl in his arms covered in blood, everyone inside was stunned. “Hey, there’s no use bringing her with that sort of injury into a pharmacy. You better send her to a hospital quickly!” said a young shop assistant who was stopping Matthew from going forward. “We don’t have the facilities like a hospital and we can’t save her!”

“There’s no need for that!” Matthew shook his head and said in a low voice, “I need to buy a set of silver needles!”

“Silver needles?” The shop assistant was startled as there were not many people looking for such an item.

“Why do you want to buy silver needles?” asked an old man with white beard, out of the blue.

When the young assistant saw the man, he quickly greeted him respectfully, “Mr. Harrison!”

This elderly person was Joseph Harrison, a genius doctor of Carlson Pharmacy with remarkable medical skills that placed him amongst the top three in the whole of Eastcliff. The prestige which Carlson Pharmacy enjoyed now had a direct connection with Joseph’s influence in the field.

However, Matthew didn’t pay any attention to him and repeated in a low growl, “I need to buy a set of silver needles!”

With a mix of adulation and anger in his voice, the young assistant replied, “Hey, didn’t you hear Mr. Harrison speaking to you?”

“I want to buy a set of silver needles!” Matthew yelled suddenly.

“What are you yelling for?” the shop assistant bellowed angrily. “Do you know where this is? Why are you making a scene here? You—”

With a wave of Joseph’s hand, the shop assistant immediately stopped speaking. While glancing once at Natalie who was in Matthew’s arms, Joseph said with a sigh, “Young man, this little girl has passed away. Why don’t you give her a proper burial instead?”

“She’s not dead yet!” Matthew shouted.

“How dare you speak to Mr. Harrison like that—” The young assistant wanted to blow his top at Matthew but was once again stopped by Joseph, who could tell that Matthew was in deep sorrow, and it was only normal for him to have such a reaction.
