Medical Genius's Unspeakable Marriage

Chapter 1262

Everyone nodded, expressing their willingness to accompany these herb growers to collect the herbs.

Just then, the crown prince suddenly spoke.

"So, you've got a lot of Seven-Leafed Lotuses over there? In that case, why don't you sell this Seven- Leafed Lotus to me?"

Upon hearing his words, everyone at the scene was startled; they turned to look at him.

Silas replied with embarrassment, "I'm really sorry, Prince, but this is the only Seven-Leafed Lotus we've got here.It's the reward that we've promised everyone, so we can't sell it—"

The crown prince immediately waved his hand dismissively.

"Why can't you sell it? Yeah, this is the only Seven-Leafed Lotus you've got with you, but don't you guys have a lot of them on that field? Sell this Seven-Leafed Lotus to me first, and I'll give you one in return once we've collected the others"

Silas still wanted to say something, but the crown prince continued, "I know you're in a difficult situation.You're worried that the others might be unhappy with this, right? Well, how about this? To be fair, let's ask everyone for their opinion."

Then, he immediately turned to the others and asked in a loud voice, "You guys aren't gonna object to my suggestion just now, right?"

Those from the Ten Greatest Families of Stonedale and the Ten Greatest Families of Eastshire looked at each other in speechlessness.

In reality, they were inwardly seething with resentment, but none of them dared to voice their objection.

After all, the crown prince had shown them who the boss here was when he came just now.

The crown prince shrugged his shoulders.

"See? Nobody's objected to this.That settles it, then.Upon hearing his words, those around him nearly Spat blood on the spot.It wasn't like they didn't want to object to it; it was just that they dared not do so.This crown prince is so domineering! Silas panicked at once.

"Prince, this...this isn't what we promised!"

The crown prince blew up at his words.

"F*ck, who cares about what you promised? Like I said, I'll use it first and then give you another one in return later on, so what's the big deal? And besides, nobody is objecting to it.What you promised doesn't mean a thing!"

Looking embarrassed, Silas hurriedly turned to look at Ambrose, but the latter lowered his head and looked down without saying a word as if this had nothing to do with him.

The crown prince didn't care that much, though.

Immediately, he went over and took the wooden box before putting it in front of Matthew.

"Matty, I saw you keep staring at the Seven-Leafed Lotus.You want it badly? Here, take this and use it first.Just give me another Seven-Leafed Lotus in return when the job's done!"

Little did Matthew expect the crown prince to snatch the Seven-Leafed Lotus for him in such a way.He couldn't help but give the crown prince a grateful look.

After all, he really needed the Seven-Leafed Lotus very much at the moment.

With the Seven- Leafed Lotus, Crystal would be safe.

In fact, this was exactly the reason Ambrose didn't stop the crown prince; he surmised that the latter intended to give the Seven-Leafed Lotus to Matthew.

Since the herb would be used to save his goddaughter, why would he stop the crown prince? Without saying another word, Matthew took the Seven-Leafed Lotus and made a gesture of gratitude to everyone else.

"Everyone, thank you for letting me have the Seven-Leafed Lotus.To tell you the truth, I need it to save someone's life.Please rest assured, for I'll be giving twice as much of it back to you guys after collecting the Seven-Leafed Lotuses this time"

Those from Stonedale and Eastshire reacted to his words with looks of speechlessness.

Just then, Edmund suddenly said, "No problem, Mr.Larson! Since you need it to save someone's life, there's no way we're gonna battle against you for it.We, the Ten Greatest Families of Stonedale, have no objection to this!"

Everyone from the Ten Greatest Families of Stonedale looked at Edmund in bewilderment. Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

However, when Edmund shot them a meaningful glance, they instantly realized his intentions.

Edmund's idea was simple: since the crown prince was here, there was no way they could stop the Seven-Leafed Lotus from going to Matthew.

Since that was the case, they'd better do Matthew a favor so that they would at least get on his good side.

At the realization, everyone instantly held their tongues.

Of course, those from the Ten Greatest Families of Eastshire still looked as black as thunder with bitterness on their faces.One of them, an aged man, spat and muttered, "Hmph! So much for Woodside's rules!"

Upon hearing this, the crown prince was annoyed at once, and he jumped to his feet with a slap on the table.

"F*ck, just spit it out if you've got something to say, you old geezer! Do you think I can't see you hiding among the crowd like a f*cking coward?"
