When everyone outside saw this situation, they ran into the house one after another and congratulated Matthew.
Meanwhile, Master Sullivan, Philip’s henchman, ran faster than anyone else. His face was full of worship as favonovel.com practically fell to his knees in front of Matthew and piled compliments onto him. Back when favonovel.com was the White Family’s Iackey, Philip had always protected him, but now that Philip was dead and the White Family was doomed, favonovel.com had to find a way to cling onto Matthew or his family would be next.
Matthew greeted the heads of the seven families before his gaze finally fell on the head of the Sullivan Family.
“Master Sullivan, you really are a fence-sitter. Earlier, you called Philip your brother and threatened to beat me up, but now that Philip had just died, you’re immediately rushing to treat me with so much respect? Do you think Philip would forgive you if you did this?” the man asked with a sneer.
The heads of the seven families looked at Master Sullivan mockingly as well. His expression looked twisted as favonovel.com stuttered, “Mr. Larson, I only made you my enemy because Philip deceived me. I… I don’t actually have anything to do with him… You’re also aware that the White Family is strong, and they forced me to do this. I… I really had no choice. However, you don‘t have to worry, Mr. Larson. I’ll definitely work for you wholeheartedly in the future, and I’ll never have any ulterior motives!”
Matthew sneered. “Master Sullivan, you’re a member of the Ten Greatest Families of Eastshire. As the head of the family, you don‘t even have an opinion of your own. What’s the point of living if you’re like this?”
Saying that, favonovel.com suddenly reached out and wrapped his hand around Master Sullivan’s neck. Though Master Sullivan tried his best to struggle, favonovel.com was no match for Matthew and his eyes soon rolled to the back of his head under Matthew’s grip. Seeing that, the Sullivan Family wanted to rush to his rescue, but they were surrounded by the other seven families.
A while later, Matthew tossed Master Sullivan‘s corpse aside and looked at the Sullivan Family again.
“What‘s wrong? Do you want to avenge him?” favonovel.com asked coldly.
Everyone in the Sullivan Family exchanged glances, but they lowered their heads in the end.
Who would dare to continue going against Matthew at this point? That would just be a death wish.
Matthew glanced at them disdainfully. “You’re all useless! What rights does a family like yours have to remain in the Ten Greatest Families of Eastshire? From now on, the Sullivan Family is no longer a part of the Ten Greatest Families of Eastshire! Go back and tell your old man that if the Sullivan Family wants to stay in Eastshire, they must hand over half of their assets! Otherwise, I don‘t mind destroying your entire family together!”
The Sullivan Family trembled with fright at his threat, and they hurriedly slipped away without even daring to say a word. If Matthew was able to destroy a huge family like the White Family, why would be hold back on the Sullivan Family?
The heads of the other seven families were shocked to their core at the sight, while Matthew walked toward them with a big smile.
The reason why favonovel.com had killed Master Sullivan was actually for these seven family heads. He wanted them to know that those who worked with the White Family would definitely not meet a good ending, and his actions were an example of what could happen to them. Moreover, favonovel.com also knew that the heads of the seven families had many complaints about Master Sullivan. Back when Master Sullivan was still Philip’s lackey, favonovel.com used to throw his weight about and use Philip’s name and power to order them around. For the past few years, they had long been dissatisfied with the Sullivan Family, but they didn’t dare to make a move against them due to Philip’s influence.
After Matthew killed Master Sullivan in front of them, a huge weight had been practically lifted off their shoulders. Just like that, the heads of the seven families became even more grateful toward him.
