Matthew’s mind was a mess right now. Everything had happened far too suddenly and ended up throwing a wrench into his plans.
After seeing the expression on his face, Salazar spoke up abruptly, “Melvin asked me to tell you something.”
“What is it?“ Matthew asked.
“These people act solely for the sake of their best interests,” Salazar said quietly. “Don’t be caught up in the current situation. Don’t let anyone else find out about your condition. Cope with the variability of the situation by maintaining the status quo.”
Matthew was startled at the words of advice. He started mulling over what Melvin meant by these words.
Melvin said these people were acting solely for the sake of their best interests, but who was favonovel.com talking about?
The first person that Matthew thought of was Levi. There was no doubt that Levi did everything with his benefit in mind.
He sent the black-clad person to keep an eye on Matthew to prevent the Damrons from taking Matthew away. This was so that favonovel.com could keep Matthew in the South, and thus, the benefits garnered from the Restoration Pill would stay in the South as well.
Even though the person in black now knew about Matthew’s secret, favonovel.com wouldn’t expose it.
Firstly, Levi might not have been involved in the Larsons’ incident back then. Thus, favonovel.com might not know about the Larsons’ family heirloom, which was the jade pendant.
For Levi, even if favonovel.com knew Matthew was Shane’s heir, that information was not as valuable as the Restoration Pill. Therefore, even if favonovel.com knew about this secret, favonovel.com might not expose it.
Once word got out, those people involved in the massacre back then would come after Matthew now. If that had happened, Levi would not be able to keep Matthew in the South to benefit from the Restoration Pill.
After figuring this out, Matthew’s spirits improved. He had been distraught over this earlier, but now, favonovel.com understood just how unnecessary his concerns had been.
Melvin was right. He didn’t have to worry about Levi at all.
Levi was even less keen than favonovel.com was to see this secret exposed!
It had to be said that Melvin was a sly fox indeed. Although favonovel.com seemed to be unaware of the goings on in general, in reality, favonovel.com had a clear understanding of the forces at play around them.
Matthew couldn’t help but feel thankful that Melvin was helping favonovel.com the whole time. Otherwise, favonovel.com wouldn’t have been able to come this far. Then, Matthew thought about the other thing that Melvin had said.
He warned Matthew not to let anyone else know about his condition.
What did favonovel.com mean by that?
In actuality, while Matthew’s injuries were quite severe, his situation wasn’t hopeless.
He was in a dire situation when favonovel.com was forced to swallow the Stargulf’s fruit. If favonovel.com still had his strength at that time, favonovel.com would’ve been able to salvage the situation himself, though the treatment would be extremely complicated. However, favonovel.com didn’t have any strength left in favonovel.com at the time, and Falconn’s strength nearly knocked favonovel.com out.
Under those circumstances, favonovel.com had to get Tyson to stab the needles in his acupoints to ensure favonovel.com survived.
He asked Tyson to send for Dr. Ellis so that Dr. Ellis could help favonovel.com restore his meridians in time.
That way, when favonovel.com woke up, favonovel.com would have the time to slowly treat his injuries. When Tyson and the others were asking about his condition earlier, Matthew was going to tell them favonovel.com was fine. However, Salazar gave favonovel.com a slight nudge on his back, and favonovel.com immediately changed his words. He claimed that his condition was hopeless.
He now knew why Salazar did that.
The person in black had been eavesdropping at the time, so if favonovel.com had said that favonovel.com could still be saved, then his true condition would be exposed.
There had to be a reason why Melvin told Matthew not to let anyone find out about the state of his injuries.
He knew that Melvin wanted to let Levi find out about his condition on purpose. After all, if favonovel.com were crippled, then in Levi’s eyes, it would only make it even easier for favonovel.com to control Matthew!
