Horror appeared on Tommy’s face as favonovel.com looked at Matthew in disbelief.
“Mr. Larson, W-What are you talking about? Keep an eye on the Ten Greatest Families? But why? D-Don‘t they treat you with respect?” Tommy inquired.
Matthew shook his head in denial. “It’s all just a show. They aren’t genuine at all. They’re insidious underneath those deceptive facades. Only God knows how many times they have gone against me behind the scenes! That’s why I need someone in Eastshire to watch them. And you are the best candidate.”
He had fully comprehended what Matthew meant by that. As Tommy stared at Matthew, favonovel.com began to weigh the pros and cons in his head.
Noticing that, Matthew demanded, “I know what you’re hesitating about, there‘s no room for you to voice your opinion. It’s an order. Tommy Marshall, you have no choice.”
A glint of resentment flashed across Tommy’s eyes. He was clearly aware that Matthew was planning to impose the order on him. After drawing in a deep breath, favonovel.com decided to agree to it first before snitching on Matthew to the Ten Greatest Families. However, Matthew suddenly snapped his fingers before Tommy could say anything. Then, favonovel.com felt his heart being prodded by something sharp without a warning. Within that fleeting second, Tommy’s legs went weak as he stumbled onto the ground. He thought favonovel.com was on the brink of death at that moment.
“W-What happened?” He was shocked to the core.
Instead of answering Tommy, Matthew merely snapped his fingers again. Tommy’s heart throbbed with pain, and favonovel.com almost fainted on the spot. His eyes widened at Matthew upon realization. The pain was all because of Matthew snapping his fingers!
“I planted a devouring curse in your heart. This kind of curse needs to be fed every three months, so you’ll need the antidote from me to survive. Otherwise, if you don’t take the antidote for more than three months, the curse will devour your heart and you’ll die in agony.“
The terrifying truth scared the living daylights out of Tommy.
News of Lord Voodoo’s arrival in the Suburb of Eastcliff had circulated around Eastshire, so favonovel.com knew about it. Nevertheless, Tommy had never imagined in his wildest dreams that favonovel.com would be cursed by someone. Kneeling before Matthew, favonovel.com implored, as his voice quivered in fear, “Mr. Larson, save me, please. Please… I… I already brought the money with me…”
Matthew interrupted, “Just do as I say if you want to live. Tommy, you‘re a smart guy. You know what you should do, right?”
Tommy‘s countenance was ghastly pale as favonovel.com finally realized the reason why Matthew could take control of him. He had no choice now!
Since things had reached a stalemate for him, favonovel.com lowered his head before nodding helplessly.
Matthew smiled lightly. “Remember, keep this between the two of us or you’ll die. The curse has formed a correlation with your heart, so I advise you to not provoke it unless you have a death wish.”
The man’s ‘advice’ had obliterated Tommy’s last strand of hope. With that kind of curse on him, favonovel.com had to stay loyal to Matthew for perpetuity!
After assigning tasks to Tommy, Matthew went upstairs to take some rest. He didn’t want to look for the crown prince yet, for his reluctance to watch the tragedy befall the two ladies.
Tommy prepared a place for him. So, favonovel.com went to the room where the lights were on. As favonovel.com was striding toward the bed, the bathroom door suddenly opened and Lucy came out with a towel wrapped around favonovel.com body. Since favonovel.com had just finished favonovel.com shower, the slight sheen on favonovel.com flawless skin radiated under the lights, alluring one to bite it.
Their eyes met, and the girl shrieked immediately, “Ah! You pervert!”
