“Could this guy be a scammer?” After saying that, the suspicion in his heart grew even stronger. A strange thought suddenly popped into Thomas Thompson’s mind—maybe everything Matthew Walker just told him was just a coincidence. Yes, it must have been a coincidence. Otherwise, he was just guessing. After all, for middle-aged people like them, who doesn’t have a few health issues? Even according to Matthew Walker, he only said that Gavin Dawson looked at him strangely and then suggested he go to the hospital for a checkup. He never explicitly said that Matthew Walker had cancer. So, it must be that this kid is deliberately trying to scam people. Seeing that Matthew Walker dresses like a successful person and is already middle-aged, how could he not have accumulated some ailments over half a lifetime? So he just made a random guess, and old Wang fell for it. It just so happened that old Wang got his cancer report after he got home, so he fell for it even deeper...
The more he thought about it, the more convinced Thomas Thompson became that his guess was right. All his doubts vanished, and he even started to get angry. This is a scientifically advanced society—how could there be so many so-called miracle workers? He absolutely couldn’t let his good friend be fooled by this scammer. Didn’t you hear what he just said? As long as Gavin Dawson helps him, he’ll pay any amount of money?
It seemed this scammer had completely hooked his old friend. No way, he had to help him.
With that thought, Thomas Thompson’s expression changed immediately. “Hey, you! Your surname is Du, right? I don’t care what your intentions are, but if you want to scam my friend Thomas Thompson, that’s not going to happen. Kid, if you know what’s good for you, you’d better leave now. Otherwise, I’ll call someone to throw you out right this minute!”
“Tongbiao!” Matthew Walker’s face changed dramatically at Thomas Thompson’s words, and he immediately rebuked him sternly. Right now, Gavin Dawson was his only hope of escaping his nightmare.
But Thomas Thompson just waved his hand. “Old Wang, you’ve definitely been fooled. Listen to me, I’ll handle this!” Without waiting for Matthew Walker to say anything else, he picked up the phone and dialed a number. No matter how Matthew Walker tried to stop him or snatch the phone away, he dodged every attempt.
“Zhang Heng? It’s me, Thomas Thompson. Bring a few guys and come to Chuangyuan on the ninth floor, right now!”
After hanging up, Thomas Thompson looked at Gavin Dawson with a cold, disdainful face and said, “Listen, kid, my guys will be here any minute. If you don’t leave now, it won’t be so easy to get away later!”
“This...” Gavin Dawson was stunned. Actually, when Matthew Walker said those things earlier, he had already been tempted to help him, thinking he should at least give it a try. After all, he was curious himself—if he transferred the stats of a healthy person to Matthew Walker, would it actually work? But Thomas Thompson’s actions had completely confused him.
This guy has subordinates? What does he do? Is he in the mafia?
“Damn it! You’re still not leaving? You’ll be sorry if you stay!” As Thomas Thompson cursed, Matthew Walker’s face also changed completely. “Thomas Thompson, this is my place. What exactly are you trying to do? My business with Mr. Du is none of your concern. If you dare to mess around, don’t blame me for being rude!”
What a joke—right now, Gavin Dawson was his lifeline. How could he let anyone offend him?
But Thomas Thompson ignored Matthew Walker completely, just giving Gavin Dawson a sideways glare, his face full of malice.
“This...” Gavin Dawson really didn’t know what to do. Thomas Thompson had already called people—should he stay or should he go?
“Mr. Du, don’t listen to his nonsense, and whatever you do, don’t leave.” Seeing the hesitation on his face, Matthew Walker became anxious and, ignoring Thomas Thompson, grabbed Gavin Dawson’s arm.
“President Wang, isn’t this getting a bit out of hand?” Gavin Dawson was not only at a loss, but also quite frustrated. He just wanted to find a job—was it really this hard? How did he get dragged into all this mess? First, at Chuangyuan, the HR manager called security to throw him out, then another boss popped up out of nowhere and called people to throw him out again, but now the boss of Chuangyuan was begging him to stay...
“It’s fine, it’s fine.” Matthew Walker patted his chest, then turned to Thomas Thompson and said, “Tongbiao, I know you mean well, but you should know I’m not that gullible. How could I not tell the difference between a scammer and a real expert? At first, I didn’t believe Mr. Du could help me either, but you saw what just happened... Hurry up and call your guys back. Don’t scare Mr. Du.”
“Forget it, I’m not listening to your nonsense! You’ve been bewitched by this guy and you’re not thinking straight. Once I get rid of this scammer, I’ll talk to your wife and have her send you for treatment, so you don’t get taken in by people like this!” Thomas Thompson waved his hand, completely ignoring Matthew Walker.
“You!!” Matthew Walker’s eyes widened in anger as he glared at Thomas Thompson. But the other party still didn’t care, just stared at Gavin Dawson with utter contempt and mockery.
In this bizarre standoff, a commotion soon erupted outside the office door. Then, a uniformed female secretary hurriedly pushed the door open.
“President Wang, President Wang, outside...”
“Thomas Thompson!! What exactly are you trying to do?” Seeing the secretary’s panic and the commotion at Chuangyuan’s entrance, Matthew Walker was furious again. “Get your people out of here, now!”
