King Of Pride Chapter 8- Doctor Zathc

Matthew was dumbstruck hearing the news. After a while, he rushed out of the room like a gust of
wind. He ran so fast that even Harper failed to stop him. In the blink of an eye, he was nowhere to be
seen.

Harper was almost frozen on the spot, as she didn't know whether to laugh or to cry. She did not
understand what her husband meant. Was he so scared by this news that he fled away?

When Fred returned, what he saw was Matthew stumbling out as if he had bumped into a ghost. Fred
looked at Harper, whose face twisted. Then, he looked back at the direction of Matthew, but he had
already disappeared from his sight. He asked, "Your Highness, what's wrong with His Highness?"

"Nothing serious. He is crazy!" Harper uttered every word between her teeth. She could not help but
curse Matthew in her heart. It was he who had yearned for a child from her. Now, when she finally got
pregnant, he said he no longer wanted a child. 'Is he kidding me?' she thought.

In a rage, Harper walked out forcibly, as if she would leave her three-dimensional footprints on the
ground. She was heading straight for the Phoenix House. Seeing all this, Fred was very confused. The
couple was in a harmonious atmosphere a while ago, but in the blink of an eye, they had fallen out.

"Your Highness, do you need me to call His Highness back?" Fred asked cautiously.

Hearing that, Harper halted and turned around, and this scared Fred to stop in his tracks too. At the
sight of her fiery glare, he swallowed and mumbled, "Your Highness…"

"Tell him to go die and never show up again in front of me!" Harper roared loudly, boiling with anger.
She then turned back and walked swiftly towards the Phoenix House.

Since the fake Harper hadn't been back after a long while, Nina was afraid that she would make trouble
for Harper. Thus, Nina went out to look for the imposter. Coincidentally, she met Harper, who was



walking towards the Phoenix House with a long face.

"Your Highness, you… You're back?"

"Close the door and unchain the dog. If Matthew comes here, let the dog bite him dead!" Harper said
relentlessly. "From now on, Matthew will be barred from entering my house. If someone lets him in, that
person would be thrown out along with him!"

When Forsythia caught up with Harper, she heard her raging roar. She couldn't help but comment, "His
Highness is doomed and in big trouble. I've never seen Her Highness this angry."

Fred nodded his head to echo with Forsythia. He couldn't agree more, as this was the first instance
when the gate of the Phoenix House was closed right in front of him, preventing him from entering
inside. Even Forsythia was locked outside. It seemed that they too were implicated.

"What on earth had happened?" Forsythia asked.

"I don't know. When I came back, I saw His Highness running out as if he had seen a ghost. And Her
Highness was raging in anger. I think His Highness might have done something to Her Highness'
extreme displeasure," Fred said. After thinking for a while, he added, "But I just can't imagine what on
earth would make Her Highness so angry."

"Does His Highness have another woman?" Forsythia asked tentatively.

"That's impossible!" Fred refuted immediately, shaking his head. Matthew's eyes were always fixed on
Harper. Though they were married, he was still afraid that some other man would try to woo her away
from him. He envied every man who got closer to his wife.

"Then why is Her Highness so angry?" Forsythia was confused. Though she had served Harper for a
long time, she had never seen her so angry.



At the same time, Matthew, who was still unaware that he had enraged his wife so much, was sitting in
the Imperial Academy of Medicine like a Yama with a poker face. Dozens of imperial physicians knelt
on the ground, holding their breath. They couldn't understand why Matthew, who seldom paid any visit
to the Imperial Academy of Medicine, suddenly came today and called all its members, including the
chief imperial physician and interns who filled prescriptions, here.

"Your Highness, what could be the reason for calling all of us together here? What can we do for you?"
the chief imperial physician asked cautiously. At that moment, he even wished if he were not the head
of the Imperial Academy of Medicine, as that would have warded off him from meeting Matthew face to
face.

"Every ten of you will form a group. Write down what I want in groups according to my requirement!" As
soon as he finished his words, some people marched in and set up folding screens, dividing the room
for ten compartments. Each compartment was equipped with a desk and a chair as well as an ink
brush, an ink stick, paper and an ink stone.

The imperial physicians were a little relieved. Their hearts were no longer in their throats. Fortunately
for them, Matthew wasn't here to make trouble. Now that he wanted the imperial physicians to write
down something according to his requirements, they guessed it had to be certainly connected with
medicine, which was their strong point. The chief imperial physician took the lead and walked into a
compartment, while others followed him. They sat down in different compartments and then waited for
further instructions from Matthew.

"Every one of you, write what a pregnant lady can eat and cannot eat, what she can do and cannot do.
Before you give back the paper, make sure you have signed your name at the bottom," Matthew
ordered in an apathetic tone. It was hard for one to tell his emotion from his voice. But he was sitting
down and was constantly knocking on the desk rhythmically, indicating that he was excited.



Hearing Matthew's order, the chief imperial physician squinted his eyes and glanced at him. He
wondered if Matthew's wife was pregnant.

"Your Highness, pardon me for my interruption, but is Her Highness pregnant?" the chief imperial
physician asked tentatively.

"Cut the crap! Do what I asked you to do," Matthew said, as he frowned slightly and cast him a glare.
The chief imperial physician was so frightened that his hand holding the ink brush trembled, ruining the
piece of paper in front of him. He had no choice but to rewrite on a new piece of paper.

All the imperial physicians breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing that the reason Matthew was here
was only because he wanted them to write matters needing attention for a pregnant woman. It was
rumored that he had been injured and couldn't have a child. Now if his wife was pregnant, he must be
crazy with joy, but the emperor would be crazy with anger.

Soon, each of the first group of ten imperial physicians completed their list of do's and don'ts.
Immediately someone approached to pick their paper up and then handed it over to Matthew for
review.
