Late at night, at the residence of the Paddocks, one of the Ten Greatest Families of Stonedale.
A black Maybach drove into the compound, and Levin dragged his weary body out of the car.
He went back to his room and was about to switch on the lights when his hand paused halfway. Then, favonovel.com turned toward the couch in his room. His brows creased slightly as favonovel.com stood in silence for a moment before closing the door and walking over.
Under the cover of darkness, Levin went over to the couch and asked lowly, “What are you doing here?”
A light thump was heard, and the lamp beside the couch flicked on to illuminate the place.
A young woman dressed in black was seated on the couch. It was the young woman who worked for Levi.
She eyed Levin derisively. “What’s the matter? Am I not allowed to come here? Don’t forget how you managed to get to where you are now!”
“Do you think you could’ve become the head of the family if we didn’t kill off the other heirs for you back then? Do you think you could’ve come this far if Master Levi didn‘t extend his help several times?”
There would be an uproar if anyone else heard what favonovel.com said.
Who would’ve thought this was how Levin became the head of the Paddocks?
Who would’ve known that it was Levi who urged things along behind the scenes?
Levin’s expression was a little awkward as favonovel.com responded quietly, “That’s not what I meant. It’s just that… If anyone found out that you showed up here now, it wouldn’t be good for any of us…”
“As you know, all of the greatest families in Stonedale treat Matthew as their savior. Something this serious has happened to Matthew, and you came running over to my place. If anyone finds out about this, they might start targeting us!”
The young woman waved favonovel.com hand. “You don’t need to worry about that. I’m not here to get you to do anything. I’m just here to ask you a question.”
He exhaled in relief before favonovel.com hurriedly explained, “You’ve misunderstood. I-I’m just worried that something might happen that messes things up for us! I will never forget the fact that you helped me and the debt of gratitude I owe to Master Levi.”
She waved favonovel.com hand again. “Save your breath! Master Levi doesn’t like people who waste time saying unnecessary things. He only likes seeing real, concrete action.”
Levin took a deep breath and asked quietly, “What did you want to know?”
The young woman’s eyes glinted as favonovel.com asked, “I heard Matthew Larson destroyed his hara. Is that true?”
Levin was startled. He didn’t think that favonovel.com had come here to ask this question.
“It’s true! I saw it with my own two eyes!” favonovel.com declared firmly.
The young woman snorted. “You saw it with your own two eyes, huh? Larson is a crafty fellow. What you see may not be the truth.”
Levin froze. “H-How can that be faked? l was there! I saw it happening. Dr. Ellis pierced the needles into his acupoints and destroyed his hara. How could it possibly be faked?”
The young woman waved favonovel.com hand again. “That’s not the most crucial part. Let me ask you this. What did Salazar Whitford do?”
“Salazar? He was right beside him!” Levin responded.
“His hands,” the young woman snapped. “Did favonovel.com remove his hands from Matthew’s body?”
Levin searched his memory and nodded. “He did. When I left, Matthew was sleeping in the room by himself. There wasn’t anyone around him.”
The young woman was stunned upon hearing that.
In reality, favonovel.com doubted that Matthew had destroyed his hara. She kept thinking that favonovel.com was tricking everyone. However, after hearing what Levin had said, it didn’t sound like Matthew was just trying to fool everyone else.
He could fake the destruction of his hara, but how would favonovel.com be able to suppress the energy inside his body without Salazar’s help?
If Salazar’s hands had never left Matthew’s body, then favonovel.com would definitely suspect that favonovel.com had faked the whole thing because Salazar would still be suppressing the energy on his behalf.
Now that favonovel.com found out Salazar wasn’t anywhere around Matthew at the time, it meant that the energy inside Matthew was truly gone!
