Man With Super Medical Skill novel Chapter 2829

Perhaps only Matthew understood Enzo's intention among all the people present. This apology was not only for the ship hijacking incident involving Daran but also for the previous incident on board the Maria, where Enzo had led the siege against Matthew. The most important issue was the Night Creeper Tea business he was preparing to start, which Matthew had despised back then.

Matthew's decision to kill General Weaver but not Daran, who had hijacked the ship, indicated to Enzo that he wouldn't resort to extreme measures, and there was still a chance for him to apologize and make amends.

It was all this that led to Enzo's gesture of offering tea as a token of apology. At this moment, he was also nervous, unsure of how broad-minded Matthew was and whether the favor he had done for him at the initial stages of the establishment of the Commercial Union would work. He didn't dare to raise his head at this moment, anxiously waiting for Matthew's answer.

Fortunately, after waiting for a few seconds, Enzo felt a weight being lifted off his hands; Matthew took the cup of tea. He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Now that Matthew's power and influence were well-established, he had no choice but to submit to him.

"I accept your tea, and I can let bygones be bygones," Matthew said. "But there's one thing, Mr. Gavell, that I hope you'll keep in mind. One can't be too greedy or reach too far. Making money is fine, but you have to follow the rules and keep your conscience clear."

Enzo understood the meaning behind Matthew's words. As expected, Matthew still held a grudge against him for the Night Creeper Tea affair. "Thank you, Young Master Larson. I, Enzo Gavell, will always keep your words in mind."

Matthew didn't hold onto Enzo because he believed that Enzo could still be of great use. At this gathering, he also had the purpose of re-establishing the Skargness Martial League in mind, so he would need Enzo's help to deal with those causing trouble.

Of course, if Enzo didn't know what was good for him and remained stubborn, he would naturally not keep him. Whether Enzo would live or die depended on his own choice.

The cryptic conversation left everyone else puzzled.

Seeing the situation, the wealthy scions didn't dare to stay any longer. After apologizing to Matthew, they fled one after another. Even Enzo had to submit to Matthew, let alone them.

Only Minerva remained, observing Matthew with interest.

After receiving Matthew's forgiveness, Enzo also stood up. "Young Master Larson, I still have to thank you for helping me clean up my mess." With that, he bowed again with the teacup in his hand. This time, though, it was not an apology but a gesture of gratitude.

Daran's betrayal was a thorn in Enzo's side. However, with General Weaver and Toby backing Daran, Enzo couldn't do anything to him. Had Matthew not intervened, Enzo would have lost face.

Matthew accepted his gratitude. However, just as he lifted the teacup and took a sip of tea, Enzo spoke again. "Young Master Larson, if you don't mind, how about we become sworn brothers?"

Upon hearing this, Matthew spat out the tea in his mouth. "Are you serious?" Enzo's children were about the same age as him, which meant that Enzo was of the same generation as his uncles and aunts. Sworn brothers? What a joke!

Seeing this, Solon, who was looking on, suddenly froze. What is Enzo up to? If he and Matthew become sworn brothers, wouldn't I have to call Matthew Uncle Matthew? D*mn, is he going to walk all over me in terms of seniority, too? Can I still be treated like a person?

Fortunately, Matthew firmly declined, stating, "Mr. Gavell, the age gap between us is too significant. It is not suitable. Let's put this idea aside." Although he and the crown prince shared a close bond, they had never discussed the idea of becoming sworn brothers, let alone involving Enzo. Moreover, the future held uncertainty as to whether they would remain friends or become adversaries. Sworn brothers? That's absurd! What is the matter with you?
