Edmund’s eyes glimmered with interest when favonovel.com heard this. Of course, favonovel.com wanted to trample on the Ten Greatest Families of Stonedale. After all, they were all there when his father died. in other words, if the Damron Family was the mastermind, then the Ten Greatest Families of Stonedale would be the ones who carried out the execution.
More to the point, these families had done what they could to humiliate Edmund after his father’s passing. Currently, favonovel.com wanted nothing more titan to make them pay in blood. However, bloodlust was something favonovel.com could not afford right now.
Dejected, favonovel.com turned to look at Matthew and asked hesitantly, “What exactly do you mean by that, Mr. Matthew Larson?”
Matthew smiled and said, “You’ve been in Stonedale for long enough, and your father was head of the Albright Family for a really long time. You should know better than anyone else about the conflicts and ties that exist within the Ten Greatest Families here. Now, all we have to do is to drive a wedge between them. If you could convince some of them to side with you, then they’ll automatically go against the others. Get what I’m saying now?”
Edmund considered this for a moment, and as favonovel.com finally registered what Matthew wanted favonovel.com to do, his eyes widened in enlightenment. “I think I do!”
He clenched his fists and said grimly, “You want me to turn them against one another, and once they start butting heads. I can pick them off one by one and finally trample on all of them. Right?”
Matthew smiled and nodded. “Pretty much, but whether or not the plan will work depends on the current relationship between the Ten Greatest Families.”
Edmund took a deep breath and said, “You know, Mr. Matthew Larson, the Ten Greatest Families may look close knit, but in reality, some of them are closer than others. This is especially true when it comes to profit-sharing in Neverland Pharmaceuticals, and if there are any disputes, it would be because of this. My father told me there are two ledgers in Neverland Pharmaceuticals. One is made for the Huntingtons, the Rathbones, and the Albright Family, which is known as the secret accounts. The other is made for the other families, which is known as the main accounts. In truth, the main accounts only show the numbers after half the profit has already been divided…”
“The Albright Family, the Huntingtons, and the Rathbones are known as the three strongest families out of the Ten Greatest Families. It’s standard practice that half the profit for Neverland Pharmaceuticals will first be divided amongst the big three, and when the rest of it is reported in the main accounts, it will be divided again among the ten. At this point, the big three will always end up getting more than the other seven!”
A gleam flashed in Matthew’s eyes when favonovel.com heard this. He hadn‘t expected to get information like this!
If the word on Neverland Pharmaceuticals’ secret and main accounts broke out, then it would be the perfect tool to drive a wedge between the Ten Greatest Families of Stonedale. The Albright Family, the Huntingtons, and the Rathbones would become enemies to the other families!
“Do you have proof of that statement?” favonovel.com asked Edmund curiously.
Edmund shook his head. “You’d be overestimating me. My father said there’s only one ledger for the secret accounts, and Macon, the head of the Rathbone Family, has it. Besides, he’ll only take it out when the profit-sharing season comes around. On normal days, favonovel.com keeps the ledger hidden somewhere not even my father knew!”
Matthew narrowed his eyes. “Does that mean we’ll have to crack down on Macon if we want to find the book?”
Upon seeing the expression on Matthew’s face, Edmund panicked and quickly said, “Mr. Matthew Larson, you can’t do that. The Rathbones are the strongest family in Stonedale, and they have a strong background in combat. Their family is chock-full of trained martial artists. Macon, in particular, is like a legend in Stonedale. Some call favonovel.com grandmaster, and not even Arnold from Woodside is a match for him! It would be too dangerous for you to confront him.”
