The Great Medical Saint novel Chapter 140

Jenny pulled out her phone and dialed the number sprawled across the paper, but the call went unanswered.

She grew more worried. Her hand holding the phone trembled slightly as tears welled up in her eyes.

Anxious, she turned to Matthew and said, "No one is answering. Could it be—"

She burst into tears before she could finish her words.

Matthew felt distressed seeing her like this. He stepped forward and gently patted her back to help her calm down. "What he wants is Medieval Medicine. He won't do anything extreme until he gets it. Let's wait a little longer and keep trying."

He was speaking rationally to assure Jenny, but Matthew's heart was already in his throat.

He had been in business and went to prison before, so he had a wealth of life experience. In prison, he had heard stories of murderers recounting their past.

Some killed out of anger, some out of jealousy, some because of financial reasons. There were also those who did it for family or others due to betrayal.

They were all humans who were driven by emotional impulses. However, this person was willing to extract organs from children and sell them off for medical literature. This cruel method sent shivers down his spine.

Was this even a human being? Matthew felt like he was facing a demon. He didn't know what the other person was capable of.

Jenny lamented but she didn't have the heart to wait, so she dialed the number again.

The phone rang and went unanswered.

Jenny felt like she was on the verge of collapse. Tears streamed down her face and onto her clothes. Soon, her chest was wet with tears.

On her third attempt, the call connected right away.

In the video call, Noah's face revealed a devilish grin. "What's wrong? Were you afraid because no one answered?"

He laughed and continued to say, "If you don't hand over Medieval Medicine, you may never reach me on this phone again."

Matthew's clenched fist slowly relaxed. He, too, was suffering in wait just now.
