Man With Super Medical Skill novel Chapter 5

Sasha's house was situated in Eastbury, a rather dilapidated and old area of Eastcliff. In Eastcliff, the Cunninghams were considered a small family with a net worth of not more than a billion.

Sasha's father, James Cunningham, was once the most powerful competitor in the Cunningham Family. However, he only had two daughters and no sons, so he lost the right to fight for the position as head of the family. Later on, his younger brother, Jason Cunningham, wanted to seize the remaining of the Cunningham's wealth from James' hands. So, when their father, Old Master Cunningham, got severely ill, he came up with the excuse of getting Sasha a live-in son-in-law to ward off bad luck, forcing her to marry as she happened to have reached a marriageable age.

Back then, Sasha was known as the most beautiful woman in Eastcliff and when the news got out, countless men came forward for the spot. In the end, she chose an honest-looking Matthew whose family background she knew nothing about, solely because she never planned to have any physical contact with this man. A modest person who would submit to her was the most suitable choice as compared to other men who were ambitious.

As it turned out, after Matthew got married into the family, Old Master Cunningham's health improved. However, Jason took advantage of the situation and attacked James again, this time claiming that the wealth under James' name would fall into the hands of another family since Sasha was now married.

And so, James and his family took a hard fall when Old Master Cunningham took back the Cunningham's properties under James’ name. The big and spacious house which they were living in

was then given to Jason's son, who would be the future heir to the Cunningham Family. As a result, James's family had no choice but to move to this old area instead, living in a three-bedroom flat which was a mere hundred square foot, a dramatic difference compared to what they used to have.

Under these circumstances, Matthew became the thorn in their flesh and they blamed him for the state of their family. In addition, Matthew's cowardice made them the laughing stock in the whole of Eastcliff. As Helen always said, "If it wasn't for Matthew that useless scum, Sasha would have been married to a rich family and achieve great heights!”

For the past three years, Matthew had been like a babysitter who humbly took care of the family, but they never once allowed Natalie to step into the house. They even kept all of his salary for the past three years and refused to fork out a single cent when Natalie was sick. Moreover, Sasha had now betrayed him. How could anyone undergo all of this treatment?

When he finally reached the entrance of their community, Matthew tried his best to calm down. Though he was raging mad, he still needed to find out just what Sasha had done and what was on her mind!

This old community didn't have wide roads and he couldn't drive the car in, so he parked it outside and went on foot into the area. When he was about to go up the staircase, two figures appeared at the top of the stairway; they were none other than James and Helen.

At the sight of Matthew, James’s face turned sullen and he jerked his head to the side, while Helen had an infuriated look on her face and shouted at him, "Matthew, where have you been the whole day? You didn't cook or do the laundry.

What are you planning to do?"

Matthew’s brows knitted together but they relaxed again after a second. Before he could find out exactly what Sasha had done, he didn't want to fall out completely with the Cunninghams. "I'll clean up right away," he said meekly.

"Save it!" she shouted. "Sasha will be disembarking soon. I won't let you off if we are late to pick her up!"

Matthew lowered his head; he was used to these remarks after these years.

"Where is the car that I asked you to loan?" she snapped impatiently while going down the staircase.

"I...."

Just as Matthew opened his mouth to speak, Helen began chiding him again, "Did you rent another car again? Could you be more considerate for Sasha's sake? She’s a senior management in her company after all, and every time she returns from a business trip, you're always picking her up in a rental car. Did you even give any thought about her reputation? My goodness, Matthew, you're the most worthless wrench I've ever met in my life! Can’t you let Sasha appear proper for once? Forget it. It’s only a matter of time before I die from the frustration of dealing with you. I've already given your brother-in-law, Liam, a call. He'll be here shortly in his Accord. And don't forget to say something nice to Liam when you see him later. Aren't you ashamed of troubling him like this all the time?" Helen's words went off like a machine gun and spouted everything without giving Matthew the chance to say anything at all.

Matthew decided not to speak any further, as he had already gotten used to this kind of treatment all these years. Soon, they reached the entrance to their community and saw a Honda Accord driving toward them. Helen immediately waved at it, gesturing for the car to drive over, but it drove past them and stopped on the other side instead.

"What's going on? Didn't he see us?" Helen asked in surprise.
