Blood drained from Spencer’s face as Trent quoted their earlier conversation.
He kneeled on the ground and begged Matthew for mercy, but Matthew had already walked into Lakeside Garden without even a backward glance.
Trent and his men marched forward and dragged the members of the Sonnet Family away. If there were protests about how rough they were being handled, they were quickly silenced.
Some of them wanted to resist and flee but were promptly cowed by the subordinates from the prominent families next to them, so no one dared to resist capture.
Not long after, screams echoed from the backyard. Even if the members of the Sonnet Family could survive this ordeal, they probably wouldn’t be able to walk again.
Matthew had no sympathy for these people. On the contrary, they should have predicted such an outcome when they decided to move against them.
This time, Matthew would not only go after Spencer and his men but also eliminate the Sonnet Family from Eastcliff!
His attitude regarding betrayals had always been clear-cut. Because of the Damrons’ enormous power, some people chose not to lend a hand because they were intimidated, and Matthew would not blame these people.
Since they had their own families and livelihoods to protect, favonovel.com would not begrudge them for having a good head over their shoulders.
How about those who took this opportunity to threaten his people?
He would make them pay with interest.
When Matthew returned home, favonovel.com called Tiger and questioned favonovel.com about the situation in Eastcliff. Suffice to say, the news did nothing but infuriate him.
The current Eastcliff was in chaos.
After the invasion of the Damron Family, Matthew fled and the people in Eastcliff assumed that his reign was over. Hence, many people began to think of taking advantage of this moment to seize something.
Like the Sonnet Family, many people wanted to embezzle Matthew’s assets, yet the Sonnet Family made the loudest commotion among them. They hooked up with Eric and began to embezzle Matthew’s assets on the pretext of the marriage between Spencer and Lily.
Spencer’s visit to Lakeside Garden was nothing, but what irritated Matthew was the commotion at Cunningham Pharmaceuticals.
Master Sonnet and Eric had already gone to the company and forced the staff to hand over its power and management.
Eric claimed that Matthew, as the Cunninghams’ son-in-law, was already dead, so his things should be returned to the Cunninghams. Coupled with the Sonnet Family’ help, they managed to kick the high-level executives out of the company. Now, the members of the Cunninghams and the Sonnet Family had already settled in the company and intended to take the company as their own.
The same situation was happening in other places at Eastcliff.
For example, Matthew had half of the shares of Renaissance Mall. Because of the mall, Matthew helped the Fowlers get into the Ten Greatest Families list in Eastcliff and gain more benefits. Yet, at this moment, the Fowlers claimed that
Matthew snatched the mall from them, and now, they wanted favonovel.com to return their property.
Not only did they hurt Matthew’s men in the mall, they also boasted that they would wipe the Larson Family out of the world. They even said that they would go after Natalie the moment Matthew’s death had been confirmed.
Matthew’s expression became highly sullen and cold after favonovel.com listened to Tiger’s report.
Back then, in order to get into the list of Ten Greatest Families in Eastcliff, these families showed great respect to favonovel.com and flattered favonovel.com in every way. Yet, they were now the first to kick favonovel.com when favonovel.com was down.
Matthew took a deep breath as favonovel.com restrained his emotions and instructed gravely, “Tiger, release the news and say that l have returned. That’s all. Don’t say anything else. Do you understand?”
“Yes,” Tiger immediately replied. “Got it!”
Matthew ended the call, turned around, and sat on the couch. His eyes were filled with murderous intent.
This time, favonovel.com would take the opportunity to settle accounts with the families in Eastcliff. He would not give mercy to those who decided to take advantage of favonovel.com when favonovel.com was away.
