Leo watched the scene smugly. He had deliberately put the blame on Matthew just to make things difficult for him.
Tiger immediately led his men to shield Matthew in the middle.
At the same time, the villagers who were pushed away from Matthew got even angrier as they cursed. It looked like a fight was about to break out.
At that moment, Julian helplessly explained, “Everyone, you should find fault with the right person. The previous developer of this project is the Lach Family and we’re not involved in this at all. We only took over this project a few days ago so what happened earlier has nothing to do with us. What’s the point of finding fault with us?”
Those villagers couldn’t help but look at each other.
Grace sneered and said, “Why should we bother about that? Since you’ve taken over this project, it’s only natural for us to come to you for a solution. Look at the damage you’ve done to the villages! Yet, you’re passing the buck right now? You and the other developers must have lost all your conscience. How can you risk others’ lives to make money?”
These few sentences stirred the anger in the villagers’ hearts again.
Fiercely, they charged at Matthew while one of them shouted, “Hit him, hit them! Hit them to death!”
Just before the clash began, Matthew suddenly said, “You guys surely deserve to die.”
As soon as favonovel.com said that, everyone was stunned. They didn’t expect Matthew to have the guts to say that in such a situation. Wouldn’t that be adding fuel to the flame?
Even Julian was stunned because this wasn’t the usual Matthew.
On the contrary, Leo was overjoyed and favonovel.com seized an opportunity to shout, “Matthew, you bast*rd! You’re such an evil person. Look at what you did to the villagers in order to make money! Yet, not only are you completely unrepentant, but you even cursed them. Are you still a human? A person like you should go to the depths of hell after you die!”
Those villagers were infuriated while they clamored to hit Matthew.
Being rational, Jonathan walked over and stopped the villagers while glaring angrily at Matthew.
“Matthew, I don’t care who you are but I want you to get lost right now! A person like you is not welcomed here. Plus, don’t ever dream of developing this place. No matter how much you spend, I’ll make it a waste!” Jonathan chided coldly.
Leo was delighted upon hearing that. It was indeed great news if Matthew could lose money in this incident.
Julian and the others started to panic. They came today to find a solution but if Matthew continued with the fuss, this project would be halted forever.
“Matthew, let’s not fight against them.” Julian tried to convince Matthew.
Looking calm, Matthew replied slowly, “I’m willing to leave but I hope that you won’t beg for my help in the future.”
Jonathan burst out laughing. “Who do you think you are? Do you feel terrific just because you’re rich? Let me tell you, I’m not the least bit interested in your money so begging you will only happen in your dreams!”
Matthew chuckled. “You don’t even know what disaster awaits you. How pathetic.”
Jonathan was annoyed and immediately rebutted, “What do you mean? What disaster? Are you threatening me? I’m not afraid of you at all! Come at me as you wish and if I flinch, I’ll honor your last name!”
Knitting his eyebrows, Matthew advised sternly, “I won’t argue with you since you won’t have long to live. However, as a doctor, I ought to remind you that suffering from headaches thrice a day, in the morning, noon and at night, isn’t a good sign. If you don’t visit a doctor in time, you’ll be dead in three days.”
