Medical Genius's Unspeakable Marriage

Chapter 1183 I Must Kill You
By then, Phoenix had already finished his cigarette. He lit another one, but he didn’t smoke it. He simply held it.
“With no adults around, our food supplies at home were bound to run out one day. We managed to tough it out for five months,
but our parents didn’t come home. Out of necessity, my sister took me with her to beg for food. For seven years, we traveled
from the north to the south. For those seven years, most of what we ate was garbage scavenged from bins. Going hungry and
being exposed to the elements was our life. Regardless of how hungry she was though, my sister would always make sure that I
ate my fill first before eating what was left.”
“You know that my sister’s called Poison Spider by others. She easily drew people’s attention, and she had plenty of partners.
She was also vicious and greedy. Many people loathed her. But no matter what she did, I would never show her any disrespect,
because I saw this with my own two eyes—she was tricked by an old man into selling her body when she was twelve, all so she
could get me a pair of tattered cotton pants to wear. At the age of fourteen, she gave birth to that man’s child. The reason I was
able to survive during our trek to the south was because my sister traded her body for my life.”
“She has been tricked and hurt by far too many men in her lifetime. Naturally, she loathes men with every fiber of her being.
Regardless of all she’s done and what others call her, I am the only one who can never look down on her or humiliate her with
scathing words, even when others do so. Anyone else may be able to mistreat her, but I am the only one who will never do
that! My sister only has two family members left—me, and her son. Her body has been wrecked due to all the abuse she
suffered when she was young. She would only ever have that one son.”
“Do you know why her son also has the surname of Warde? Because to my sister, her son’s father is unimportant. That boy is
hers. That was the crux of the matter!”
Elio finished his third cigarette at last. He raised his head to look at Matthew. “Can you blame me for saving her son?”
Matthew fell quiet. At last, he discovered how these three people’s odd personalities came to be. To be honest, he actually pitied
Poison Spider a little after listening to Elio’s story. It hadn’t been easy for her to survive until today. It was no wonder why she
was so cruel. This world had been savage to her; how could she repay the world in kind after going through all that?
After a long silence, Matthew spoke at last. “It’s a touching story. I think I had the wrong idea about them before, but I’m afraid
that I won’t be able to help you right now. I have things that I want to achieve myself as well!”

Phoenix chuckled. “I didn’t tell you that story just so you would help me. I just thought that our situations are somewhat similar.
You protected your younger sister with your life. Likewise, my older sister protected me with hers. Whatever you are willing to do
for your sister, I’m willing to do for my own as well! So what if Eastcliff is Billy Newman’s territory? As long as my sister is in
danger, I will go through the depths of hell to save her!”

Phoenix tossed his cigarette butt into the ashtray and got up from the couch. It was only then that Matthew realized Phoenix was
really tall, clocking in at over six feet.
Phoenix pointed at him. “I apologize, but I must kill you!” he said softly.
With that, he abruptly moved and arrived in front of Matthew. He came right at Matthew with a right hook.
Matthew immediately felt danger the moment he saw Phoenix attack. He brought both arms up to block the blow, but the force
made him feel like he had been hit by a truck. Matthew couldn’t stop himself from staggering a few steps back.
Didn’t this mean that Phoenix was as powerful as Lord Voodoo?
