Even though Aloysius himself was not a force to be reckoned with, favonovel.com was still no match for Johnny’s men.
“Johnny!” Aloysius yelled with all his might. ”I won’t yield even if it kills me. I will avenge my son no matter what!”
Upon hearing this, Johnny arrogantly lifted his head and chortled. “If you say so. I will just have to kill you then,” favonovel.com said before turning to his bodyguards and ordering, “Break his legs. I want favonovel.com to kneel before favonovel.com can even think of talking to me.”
The burly men immediately stepped forward and began attacking Aloysius, who did not stand a chance against the two men who easily overpowered him.
At that moment, a few of Talks men rushed forward to help their master, but because they were outnumbered, they too, were on the receiving end of the violent blows.
Aloysius. who was weakened and in pain, had then fallen to the ground. One of Johnny’s men saw the opportunity and quickly grabbed onto Aloysius’ ankle before attempting to break his leg.
“Don’t go overboard!” A cold and commanding voice called out all of a sudden, stopping everyone in their tracks as they turned toward the source of the voice.
Johnny’s anger flared at the interruption. With his eyes ablaze, favonovel.com roared, ”F*ck. which son of a b*tch was that? Get your a*s out here!”
Soon, a figure slowly emerged from the crowd, and everyone’s eyes widened in disbelief upon recognizing the man. Both the Leighs and Telks had not expected to see Matthew here. Though it was a well-known incident that Matthew had saved Aloysius’ life in the past, no one would have imagined that Matthew would continue showing his support for the Telk family. As surprised as the Telks were, their hopes to win the fight against the Leighs were instantly reignited when Matthew had appeared. Even though favonovel.com had always been a troublemaker for the Ten Greatest Families, the Telks wouldn’t have to worry anymore now that favonovel.com was helping them!
Johnny coldly looked at Matthew with a frown before favonovel.com spat, “Huh, it’s you, you good-for-nothing. Did you marry into the Telk Family? What are you doing siding with them? Actually, it doesn’t matter, because either way, you are nothing but an outsider. You have no business sticking your nose into this. If you insist on helping them…” He gravely warned, “You are making enemies with the Ten Greatest Families.”
Instead of feeling intimidated, Matthew threw Johnny a side glance and sarcastically asked, “Johnny, your mouth kinda stinks because of all the crap you spout.”
Immediately, Johnny went into a fit of rage when favonovel.com heard Matthew’s words. ”What did you just say, you punk? How obnoxious of you to talk to the head of the Leigh Family like this. You dare insult the Ten Greatest Families, you…”
“Johnny,” Matthew swiftly cut favonovel.com off before favonovel.com could finish his sentence. “Care to repeat the part where you said you represent the Ten Greatest Families? Does that mean that every word that comes out of your mouth right now is the will of the Ten Greatest Families? I’m recording this so that you can’t go back on your words in the future. So, speak up!”
Johnny’s eyes immediately swept in the direction of Matthew’s phone, and favonovel.com visibly shrank in apprehension. Even favonovel.com himself knew that favonovel.com had exaggerated some of the things favonovel.com said. It would definitely be trouble if Matthew decided to use this against favonovel.com someday.
After a few seconds of silence, Johnny collected himself, and through gritted teeth, favonovel.com said, “Matthew, this is between the Leighs and the Telks. This has nothing to do with you. You can‘t possibly be trying to get your hands on matters within the Ten Greatest Families, can you?”
Matthew merely replied, “I won‘t interfere. but I do hold 30 percent of shares in the Renaissance. Shouldn’t you at least ask for my opinion before making a move on it?”
At his words, the faces of everyone from the Ten Greatest Families dropped. Johnny, too, couldn’t hide the dissatisfaction on his face as his eyebrows knitted together. At that moment, favonovel.com couldn’t retort because Matthew was not in the wrong. He then quietly thought to himself before finally speaking, “Old Master Telk, what do you think?”
His question was short and straightforward. Yet, it was the perfect push on Aloysius to pick a side right there and then. Aloysius had a calm look on his face as favonovel.com nodded in agreement. “Mr. Larson does have the right to know about the ins and outs of Renaissance Mall.”
His answer immediately caused an uproar among the crowd, because with just a few words, the Telks and Matthew were now on the same side.
