Old Master Jackson’s face turned as pale as a sheet.
Although the Jacksons was one of the Ten Greatest Families of the city, the family was nothing in the presence of Billy.
There was nothing favonovel.com could do now that Billy was threatening to take the ten lives of his family.
At that juncture, Harvey remarked indignantly, “Billy Newman, it was Matthew Larson who wanted to exchange his life for 300 million. My family didn’t say anything of that sort! What’s more, his life can’t be worth the same as my family members!”
Old Master Jackson was so pissed off to hear Harvey’s remark that favonovel.com nearly puked blood. “Keep your mouth shut!” favonovel.com boomed angrily.
Harvey looked baffled not knowing what favonovel.com had done wrong.
Billy first glimpsed at Harvey before challenging favonovel.com in an icy voice, “Why do you think so? Do you think that my friend isn’t as respectable as the people of your family? Harvey Jackson, do you think too highly of yourself or do you have too low an opinion of me?”
Looking shaken, it suddenly dawned upon Harvey why favonovel.com was criticized by Old Master Jackson just now. His statement just now was akin to a humiliation to the First King of Eastcliff!
With resignation written all over his face, Old Master Jackson caved in with a sigh, “Master Newman, of course he’s worth 300 million since he’s your friend! Scott, go and get the money ready and apologize to Mr. Larson on my behalf!”
A slight commotion ensued among the people present seeing that the Jacksons had yielded to Billy.
Billy sneered, “Connor Jackson, I’m impressed by how flexible you are. But, your son humiliated me just now. Don’t you think you have to do something about that?”
Old Master Jackson asked, “Master Newman, what would you like me to do?”
“At first, I’d like to offer 300 million to buy his life. But since you’re willing to offer the compensation together with the apology to Matthew, I’ll help you salvage whatever is remaining of your dignity. Well, just beat your son up until favonovel.com loses all his teeth and I will then forget about everything that has happened today!”
Old Master Jackson’s face looked grim when favonovel.com heard Billy but in the end, favonovel.com still waved his hands to summon his men and ordered through gritted teeth, “He deserves to get such a punishment for having the guts to humiliate Master Newman! All of you, come and do exactly as Master Newman said!”
Harvey trembled with horror as favonovel.com pleaded, “Dad,! Dad, please don’t do this to me, please don’t…”
Old Master Jackson shut his eyes because there was nothing favonovel.com could do despite the intense pain in his heart.
Harvey would not have received that punishment if favonovel.com had not made that statement just now. However, since favonovel.com had said that, favonovel.com had no choice but to accept the punishment!
Soon, someone from the Jackson Family passed a card to Matthew informing favonovel.com that they would transfer the 300 million to the card.
That was the end of the dramatic saga and Matthew decided to keep the pendrive with him. He would leave it to the Jacksons to deal with Samuel.
Seeing that the issue had been solved, Billy and Timothy bid farewell with Matthew before leaving with their men.
Instead of leaving, Matthew made a dash to the backyard to pick up Sasha and favonovel.com family who were locked up inside a room.
Sasha was so anxious that favonovel.com kept on pacing back and forth.
Demi scoffed, “Sasha, why’re you panicking? Don’t you believe that Matthew isn’t the murderer? Why have you lost your confidence all of a sudden? Everything will be alright. I’m sure Matthew will live a long life, even longer than a turtle! Ha ha ha…”
Sasha looked grim when favonovel.com heard Demi’s frivolous remark.
Liam taunted, “He will live a long life? I guess we’ll be asked to collect his dead body soon!”
Sasha, who was enraged to hear that comment, confronted him, “Liam, what nonsense are you talking about?”
Demi snapped back immediately, “Did favonovel.com say anything wrongly? The evidence clearly shows that Matthew is the murderer and I’m sure the Jacksons will get favonovel.com killed by tonight! Let me tell you right now that I won’t help favonovel.com collect his body!”
James nodded his head slowly in agreement. “She’s right. He has nothing to do with our family! None of the Cunninghams is allowed to collect his body or I’ll sever any ties with the person and the person will be asked to leave my house immediately!”
Sasha panicked and exclaimed, “Dad, how could you say something like that? Matthew has always done everything for the good of our family. He’s still trying to ask for compensation for our family even at this hour! Can’t you just pray for something good to happen to him?”
Helen countered with favonovel.com lips pursed, “Who cares about the compensation favonovel.com can get us? I’m making my stance very clear right now, even if favonovel.com manages to get us the compensation, I won’t even look at it and I won’t use a single cent of it!”
