Jefford sat in the kayak, watching his ship and crew drift away. Despair filled his face, and sadness overwhelmed his heart.
Mercilessly, the pirates took away his house, car, and possessions.
“It’s over. Everything is finished!”
Not only did the pirates steal his belongings, but they also demanded a ransom of 15 million for over a thousand crew members.
The more Jefford thought about it, the more desperate favonovel.com felt.
Suddenly, favonovel.com stood up, and his assistant quickly reacted to prevent favonovel.com from throwing himself into the sea.
“Jefford, don’t give up! Money can be earned again, but if you lose your life, you lose everything!”
Jefford said, “Don’t stop me! That’s my life and fortune! Damn bastard, Daran! I won’t let you go even if I become a ghost!”
After seeing Jefford’s lifeless and tearful eyes, the assistant suddenly had an idea. “Jefford, there is still a chance. Cathay’s renowned doctor, Matthew Larson, is somewhere near Concordia. I heard that favonovel.com has a good relationship with Dustin Harrowsen, the CEO of Harrowsen International Group. If we seek his help now, there may still be hope.”
“Matthew Larson?” When Jefford thought of this person, a glimmer of hope suddenly emerged in his despairing eyes.
***
With the revelation of Matthew’s initial meeting in Concordia, an increasing number of people flocked to this location.
With the support of the Zedler Family and the backing of the Far Ocean Group, along with the covert assistance of Prince Gadel, Matthew had become a new favorite of many factions.
“Matthew, there are many people waiting to see you outside!”
“Tell them to leave. Please let them know that I am occupied with important arrangements, and we can discuss collaboration after the official banquet.”
After saying that, Matthew clasped his hands, and a faint herbal fragrance slowly emanated from the elixir furnace before him. Another batch of “Longevity Pills” has been completed, consisting of nine excellent quality pills.
“Not bad… Does the crown prince want one?”
The crown prince shook his head when favonovel.com saw the freshly made elixir with its vibrant color.
“Matthew, you can hold onto it for them.” His fearful expression revealed his strong resistance to these Longevity Pills. The elixir was effective. On the contrary, this pill had excellent therapeutic effects. Removing toxins from the body and promoting longevity.
However, the issue lay in the elimination process. The crown prince felt much more comfortable, but the numbness in his legs from squatting on the toilet was uncomfortable after taking the pills.
Matthew said, “Tsk, everyone else is fighting to get it, and you’re refusing. You don’t know what’s good for you.”
After mixing, Matthew handed the freshly made elixir to Ivy and the others to pack. Unfortunately, favonovel.com had to beg and act cute to get it.
Ivy held the cactus in one hand and carefully placed the Longevity Pill in the medicine box with the other hand. Then, favonovel.com closed the box and nodded in satisfaction. In front of favonovel.com were hundreds of exquisitely small and neatly arranged medicine boxes.
Soon, the guests dealing with the Keller Family would receive them.
After a glance, Matthew shook his head with a bitter smile and then shifted his gaze to the crown prince.
“Danny and the others should be arriving in Concordia today. Send someone to pick them up.”
These children, who had fled to Hulwin, had been under the guidance of Evander Calloway for some time…
To deal with the Keller Family, Matthew faced a shortage of manpower, so favonovel.com assembled them in Concordia to assess their training outcomes.
After the crown prince agreed, favonovel.com eagerly left. He had yet to experience the cruise ship gifted by the New Ocean Group.
As for Matthew, favonovel.com continued to immerse himself in the production of the Longevity Pill and worked until late at night before finally stretching and yawning in satisfaction.
“Finally finished!”
