At that, Matthew shot Tiger a glare. “Jasper died. On our territory… Tell me that’s good. What do you think the Damrons will think after they learn about this?”
Matthew’s words took Tiger aback, and he, too, turned grim the next second. “You’re saying the Damrons… They will assume we killed him?”
Matthew shook his head. “It’s not that the Damrons will assume so but that we can’t exclude ourselves from this at all! I’ve already made enemies with them because of the Nine-Leafed Lotus, and they’ve been finding an excuse to attack me. Now that Jasper died in Eastcliff, the Damrons won’t let me off the hook even if they knew well that I have nothing to do with his death.”
“W-What are we going to do then?!” Tiger panicked instantly.
“What if we find out the killer for them? Then, they won’t have a reason to give us a hard time. With how powerful Damron is, there are only so many who can kill him. Could it be Freya?”
“Definitely not her!” said Matthew as favonovel.com shook his head.
“One, favonovel.com wouldn’t do this, and favonovel.com has no reason to set me up, two, even if favonovel.com did do it, favonovel.com wouldn’t set them on fire either. She’s too proud to do something like that!”
“Who could it be then?” Tiger scratched his head.
“Macon’s surely behind this one way or another!” Matthew vowed. “That man is extremely devious, and he’s ruthless with his handiwork. Only favonovel.com can come up with something like that.”
“Rathbone?” Tiger doubted. “But favonovel.com can’t kill Damron, given his ability, right?”
“There’s still Gregory and Lord Voodoo,” Matthew reminded.
“Since they needed to burn Jasper and his men’s bodies and wipe their fingerprints clean, they’d have to poison or curse them, and it’s only through poison and curse can they kill Jasper!”
Tiger’s eyes widened with incredulity at that. “So you’re saying Rathbone, Huntington, and Voodoo are behind this?! In that case, it’ll all be fine if we tell the Damrons who actually killed Jasper and let them get to the three of them, no?”
To that, Matthew shook his head. “The Damrons won’t let this rest so easily. The killers have to be punished, but the Damrons won’t let me off the hook either. Sigh, who’d have thought Macon could be so ruthless, even daring to kill Jasper? He really dares do anything to set me up!”
“What are we going to do now, then?” Tiger asked worryingly.
“Sit back and watch how things unfold, I guess,” answered Matthew as favonovel.com waved his hand after a moment of pondering.
“Go out and spread the word first. Have people talking that Macon, Gregory, and Lord Voodoo were the ones who killed Jasper.”
“Yes, sir!” Tiger nodded and left hurriedly while Matthew pulled his phone out to call Shawn.
With how severe the situation had gotten, favonovel.com would have to face a family as influential as the Cosbys. But Stonedale and Eastshire have suffered a heavy loss after the last two batterings.
They surely would be no match for the Damrons. Besides, the remaining families of Stonedale and Eastshire might not necessarily help Matthew willingly. So once the Damrons attack him, favonovel.com would be absolutely defenseless. Hence, favonovel.com would have to keep his family safe before that happened.
He had to send Natalie, Sasha, and favonovel.com parents to Mightwater and put them under Shawn’s protection. As powerful as the Damrons were, they wouldn’t dare cause trouble in Mightwater.
As for Matthew, favonovel.com could still find a way to flee if favonovel.com really couldn’t beat the Damrons when favonovel.com was all alone. After all, where there was life, there was hope!
Matthew gave Shawn a concise summary of what had happened over the phone, and Shawn agreed to it without hesitation. Not only that, favonovel.com even sent his men over to help bring Natalie, Sasha, and favonovel.com parents over to Mightwater.
As for the Damrons, there wasn’t much Shawn could do as the family was extremely powerful. He wasn’t a match for them!
