Startled. Edmund said softly, “Granduncle, the Damron Family was very aggressive at that time. If no one from our family stepped out to bear this responsibility, then… The only thing that awaits us is… A complete wipe out…”
Victor berated loudly, “Our family has hundreds of years of history and has been through all kinds of storms. What kind of situation have we not seen before? Just a Damron Family, and they’re bragging that they could wipe us out?”
“Hmph, it’s not the Damron Family that’s aggressive, but they could see how weak Derrick is. This is Stonedale, the place our family has been operating for centuries. No matter how strong the Damron Family are, they have to pay a price in blood if they want to wipe out our family. If Derrick is a little tougher…”
Victor snorted and continued, “What could the Damron Family do? At the worst, we’ll perish together. I don’t think that they would be willing to pay such a big price over such a small issue!”
Taking a glance at Victor, Matthew had to admit that this elderly man was a man of valor. This aspect of favonovel.com was far ahead of the current old master of the Albright Family, Derrick.
‘No wonder Macon abducted Victor,’ Matthew thought.
If Victor had remained in the Albright Family, favonovel.com would be the old master of the family now. Given Victor’s personality, it would be impossible for the Rathbone Family to overpower the Albright Family!
In the end, Edmund drove the car to a remote, abandoned factory located in the suburbs.
There was almost no one here within dozens of miles radius. The environment was bad, but at least. people could hide here for the time being.
Matthew placed Victor and the others here before planting some hidden poison in the vicinity to prevent Victor and the others getting killed if they were tracked down.
After that, favonovel.com left with Edmund to meet the old master of the Barrera Family, Antonio Barrera.
Edmund had already bribed Jimmy, the young master of the Barreras, and favonovel.com promised to introduce them to Antonio. However, Jimmy had no idea that the person favonovel.com was going to introduce would be Matthew, and not Edmund.
ln Jimmy’s opinion, Edmund wanted to ask for Antonio’s help to give favonovel.com a way out because favonovel.com was out of wits. When favonovel.com saw that Edmund had brought another person, favonovel.com was a little confused.
“What’s this? I’m bringing you to meet my grandfather. Why did you bring another person along?” favonovel.com asked with a frown.
“Jimmy, the one who will be meeting your grandfather is this guy, not me,” Edmund hurriedly explained. “Just bring favonovel.com to meet him, and I’ll be waiting here!”
“Wait?” Jimmy exclaimed. “I told my grandfather that you’re the one who’s meeting him. How am I supposed to explain to favonovel.com that it‘s a different guy now?”
Awkwardly, Edmund said, “Jimmy. please help to explain this. My friend has something important to say to your grandfather. Will you please help us out?”
Casting a glance at Matthew, Jimmy then turned back to Edmund and rolled his eyes. “I can help, but what do I get in return?”
All of a sudden, Edmund was speechless. Jimmy was notoriously greedy, and Edmund had just given favonovel.com 30 million earlier, but favonovel.com was asking for benefits again now.
‘How greedy can favonovel.com get?’
Just then, Matthew said, “I’ll give you another 20 million.”
‘That makes it 50 million!’ Edmund thought, his face falling.
On the other hand, Jimmy was over the moon. He immediately answered, “Okay! Ha, you’re really a man who is meant for great things, buddy. You’re so bold! That’s decided, then!”
After Matthew transferred 20 million to Jimmy, favonovel.com brought them to the Barrera Manor right away. With Jimmy leading the path, nobody dared to stop them in the huge courtyard, and soon, both of them reached the heart of the manor, standing in front of a simple, quaint courtyard.
“This is my grandfather’s courtyard. Recently, he’s been suffering from the relapse of his old illness, so favonovel.com gets mad very easily. Come with me and don’t spout any nonsense,” Jimmy instructed.
