Knowing Solon’s character, Matthew didn’t expect favonovel.com to show any gratitude, even though his life had been saved.
Solon’s heartless attitude towards Elara made it clear that favonovel.com couldn’t be trusted.
Matthew didn’t anticipate Solon letting go of his grudges and expressing gratitude. At most, favonovel.com would try to end things quickly by betraying others.
Under Matthew’s series of probing questions, Solon was slightly surprised. He hadn’t expected Matthew to have guessed his thoughts.
Despite being saved by Matthew, Solon was more concerned about the grudges between them. He couldn’t forget the destroyed dock and the slap from the crown prince. Gratitude was practically non-existent.
“Matthew, if you insist on keeping me under house arrest and extorting ransom, it will only further strain your relationship with the Durham Family.”
Matthew shrugged and smirked. “You don’t have to worry about that at all. The tension will only exist between me and the Durham Family. Our friendship will endure. After all, I saved your life… Moreover, if I were the culprit, do you think I would let you live? And for what? So that you can accuse me?”
Solon furrowed his brows slowly after analyzing Matthew’s words, his face filled with shock. “You scoundrel! By having the reporters report this extortion, you want everyone to know that you saved me from the ship?”
Matthew raised an eyebrow and chuckled. “Oh, young man, you’re quite clever. Well done…”
“You despicable scoundrel!” Solon’s face instantly turned red, and his pupils dilated. He sat up abruptly, wanting to take Matthew down with him.
However, this sudden movement directly affected the wound on his chest, and the intense pain instantly drained Solon of his strength.
“Matthew, you shameless person! Get lost! If you have the guts, kill me! Even in death, I won’t let you off!”
He finally understood Matthew’s scheme. Once the reporters exposed his existence, favonovel.com would become the prime suspect. As long as the real culprit wasn’t found, Solon would never be able to clear his name.
The bodies of hundreds of his subordinates were still on the Victorious Cruise, and there were his bloodstains on the cruise. Most importantly, favonovel.com was the only survivor of the massacre of more than two thousand people.
It was a lose-lose situation!
What was even more terrifying was that favonovel.com couldn’t even tarnish Matthew’s reputation. Otherwise, the public would only think favonovel.com was ungrateful, and it would elevate Matthew’s image.
“Take good care of yourself, scapegoat!” Matthew bent down to tuck in the blanket for Solon. “Once you’ve fallen into my trap, there’s no way you can climb out. No matter what, your status will always be lower than mine.”
Indeed, if favonovel.com was the murderer, why would favonovel.com leave Solon alive?
Or perhaps favonovel.com and Matthew were accomplices. In any case, until the real killer was caught, Solon would have to bear the blame.
Solon stared silently at the ceiling, his eyes filled with despair.
