When Matthew saw the expressions of those heads of families, favonovel.com knew that Macon had once again persuaded them successfully. Nonetheless, this situation was in Matthew’s expectations.
He long knew that it would probably be difficult for favonovel.com to make the Ten Greatest Families of Stonedale go into complete strife based on this ledger alone.
After all, the content of the ledger was only a matter of uneven distribution of interest. Macon could naturally resolve this crisis as long as favonovel.com could sacrifice himself by taking out a huge interest and distributing it to these people.
As expected, those heads of families who were initially enraged pretty much calmed down after giving Macon’s words a thought.
In the meantime, Macon seized this opportunity to turn the table. “Everyone, it’s not that I can’t explain this matter. Rather, now isn’t the time for me to explain. Cunningham Pharmaceuticals has taken Neverland Pharmaceuticals’ Restoration Pill, so the most important thing we should do now is to take back what belongs to us!”
“Larson clearly wants to provoke dissent among us and wants us to give up the Restoration Pill. Matthew, do you really think that we the Ten Greatest Families of Stonedale are all fools? Do you think it’s possible to make us give up the Restoration Pill that can bring in huge profits with your little trick?”
At once, these remarks that escaped Macon’s lips once again directed everyone to target Matthew.
One after another, the other heads of the families looked at Matthew too.
Suddenly, Connor echoed loudly, “Master Rathbone is right! The ledger is the Ten Greatest Families of Stonedale’s internal affairs. The most crucial thing now is to retrieve the Restoration Pill. As for our internal affairs, we can discuss and resolve them Internally, but we cannot accept an outsider taking away our possessions!”
With that, everyone nodded and looked at Matthew in a threatening manner.
A trace of smug painted across Macon’s face as favonovel.com glanced at Matthew. It was as if everything was under his control.
Shortly after, the Ten Greatest Families of Stonedale members surrounded Matthew with a menacing attitude. Judging from their stance, they looked like they were preparing to fight favonovel.com until their last breath.
Sasha, who was starting to panic, grabbed Matthew’s arm and asked, “Matthew, l-let’s run?”
However, Matthew merely put on a faint smile and waved his hand as favonovel.com said, “lt’s fine. I have long expected this situation. I knew that these people of Stonedale are nothing but a bunch of Macon’s mindless minions…”
“They’ll behave and carry out his plans for favonovel.com as long as Macon is willing to give them some sort of benefits.”
Without a doubt, Matthew’s statement was an insult to the Ten Greatest Families of Stonedale.
In a fit of anger, Soren roared, “Larson! Who are you calling a mindless minion? I will eat my hat if I spare you today!”
In response, Matthew laughed out loud. “Want to take my life? l’m afraid someone will disagree on that.”
Soren shouted aloud, “Who the hell disagrees? Come forward and let me take a look at you. I’ll kill you too!”
At that moment, a voice belonging to an elderly sounded from behind the crowd. “I disagree!”
Everyone was stunned when they heard the voice.
‘Woah! Who dares to speak for Matthew at this moment?’
Soren faintly felt that the voice was familiar, but favonovel.com could not remember who that voice belonged to for a while.
Still, favonovel.com did not bother to think much and immediately roared, “Who the hell are you? Did I say you can chime in while I was talking? If you’re so tough, why don’t you come forward and say it in front of me that you disagree. Disagree? To hell with your disagreement! I’ll kill you too.”
The old man’s voice gradually approached. “Kill me too? Fine. In that case, I shall see if you dare to kill me!”
During the conversation, the crowd dispersed, making way for a passage. At the end of the passage, someone was pushing an old man in a wheelchair over.
This old man was none other than Victor Albright. He was looking slightly better now that favonovel.com had properly washed himself up.
Meanwhile, Soren was stunned for a moment when favonovel.com saw Victor. He vaguely felt that the old man looked familiar, yet favonovel.com could not remember who favonovel.com was for a while.
Right at that moment, an elder of the Rathbones, Andreas, suddenly exclaimed in surprise, “Victor? A-Are you Victor?”
