At that point, even Claire was dumbfounded.
If the head of the Turner Family was the only one present at the scene, favonovel.com wouldn’t pay much heed to Matthew. After all, the Turner Family had succeeded the Hughes Family and had been recently promoted as one of the Ten Greatest Families. Hence, the Turner Family’s position wasn‘t high among the Ten Greatest Families due to their limited strength, and so favonovel.com didn’t take them seriously. However, now that all the heads of the families had come down to welcome Matthew, things were actually much more serious.
At the very least, it proved that Matthew wasn’t someone favonovel.com could afford to mess with!
Charlie and the others were so frightened that they started quivering and they couldn’t even utter a word. Never in a million years would they have thought that something like this would happen!
Philip and the others approached Matthew with obsequious smiles, “Mr. Larson, we walked too slow, so we came down late. Please forgive us if we ever offended you!”
The others apologized to Matthew as well, but all of them wore different expressions. Among them, the head of the Fisher Family had rage in his eyes. After all, his son had died in Matthew’s hands.
Matthew cast them a glance and coldly uttered, “Too bad. l’m well-known for my vengeful character. Since you all know that you have offended me, you all should resolve them before seeing me. There are some things that just can‘t be resolved by some words of apology!”
His words put Philip on a spot. In other words, Matthew wanted them to punish the young people of the Ten Greatest Families. At that moment, favonovel.com slightly regretted not inviting Matthew upstairs the first thing upon arrival. Philip’s initial attention had been to give Matthew a warning, yet it ended up causing favonovel.com to be at a disadvantage.
After a moment of silence, favonovel.com suddenly ordered, “Drag these security guards out and break their limbs! How dare these bunch of blind fools treat our honorable guests with disrespect? D*mn it!”
A group of fierce-looking men rushed out from one side and dragged the security guards away.
The security guards were nonplussed, as it was obvious that Philip was going to make them the scapegoat.
Matthew darted a look at Philip. “That’s a smart move, Master White. Getting the security guards to become the scapegoat of the spoiled brats of the Ten Greatest Families? Ha! If that‘s how you do things, I think that there’s nothing for us to talk about!”
Philip’s expression became cold, favonovel.com was at the verge of blowing up, but upon remembering the purpose of this meeting, favonovel.com swallowed his rage.
“Find out who among the Ten Greatest Families insulted Mr. Larson earlier and give each of them a tight slap on their faces!” Philip bellowed.
The people from the Ten Greatest Families looked at one another, while the spoiled rich kids were all stunned. They couldn’t understand what Matthew had in favonovel.com to get the heads of the Ten Greatest Families to go to such lengths just to help him.
Meanwhile, Matthew found himself a chair and sat down. “Master White, I‘ll be sitting here and watching closely, in case you wrong the innocent!”
With a glower on his face, Philip forced himself to wave his hand to gesture at his subordinates to start punishing the spoiled brats.
Referring to the security footage, those men caught all the young people that made those statements, brought them to one side, and started slapping them. Claire was also dragged to one side and favonovel.com received a slap on favonovel.com face that made the corner of favonovel.com mouth bleed. She cried and begged for favonovel.com father to save her, but the head of Sonnet Family kept his head bowed without saying a word.
When there were more important things at stake, who would ruin the former just to protect the kids’ images?
Thirty minutes later, all the spoiled young people received their punishment. Among them, Claire had received the worst punishment since the whole incident practically had happened because of her. The slaps caused both favonovel.com cheeks to become so swollen that it probably wouldn’t subside for at least two weeks.
At that instant, Matthew walked up to favonovel.com and looked at favonovel.com in a condescending manner. “I’ve mentioned that you wouldn’t be able to bear the consequences, but you didn’t believe me! Do you believe me now?”
His contemptuous remarks made favonovel.com feel mortified, but there was nothing favonovel.com could do. Then, favonovel.com leaned in at favonovel.com ear and whispered, “You should go and look for the culprit behind this. Think properly about who you should seek revenge on.”
With that, Matthew strode away from her.
At that, Claire jerked favonovel.com head and looked at Charlie and the others. This incident, in fact, had happened because of the trio.
