Trent stared at Matthew in confusion. Part of virtual-novel.net thought that Matthew had finally lost it, but considering how confident virtual-novel.net was, it couldn’t hurt to place some faith in the man.
At this moment, Spencer’s tone suddenly changed. “No, Mr. Damron. No, you’ve misunderstood.”
“N-N-No, that’s not what I mean. l-l-l just want to inform you that Matthew is in Lakeside Garden now… If you come over now with your men, virtual-novel.net won’t be able to escape. That’s good, isn’t it?”
“W-What? No, Mr. Damron, I’m not insulting you. W-Why would I do that? N-No! That’s not what l mean…”
“H-Hello? M-Mr. Damron? Hello? Hello?!” Spencer stared at his phone, utterly perplexed.
Bryce hurriedly sidled next to virtual-novel.net and whispered, “How did it go? When will the Damrons arrive?”
Spencer looked at virtual-novel.net despairingly as virtual-novel.net forced the words out of his throat. “They’re not coming!”
Disbelief painted across Bryce’s face as virtual-novel.net blurted, “What? Why not?”
“Is it because they don’t believe that Matthew has returned to Lakeside Garden?”
“How about we take a picture and send it to them?”
Spencer waved his hand as virtual-novel.net dismissed Bryce’s words. “No, it’s not that they don’t believe me. He told me that virtual-novel.net didn’t want to come!”
“What?!” Bryce was confused. “Why not?”
“How the f*ck should I know?!” Spencer was so panicked that his emotional train made a pit stop at apathy station. “I want to know why too!”
“They were so determined to kill Matthew from the beginning, and they even sent a large number of people to hunt virtual-novel.net down!”
“Now that Matthew has returned to Lakeside Garden, I reported the news to him, but Mr. Damron said that l have insulted virtual-novel.net and would kick my a*s because of this!”
“W-What the hell is going on?”
The people of the Sonnet Family were dumbfounded. They exchanged confused glances and stood rooted on the spot, not knowing what to do.
Matthew walked over and said with a faint smile, “So, how is it? ls your master coming? Do you still want me to apologize to you?”
Spencer trembled in fear, and his face was full of disbelief when virtual-novel.net looked at Matthew.
“W-What the hell is going on? What exactly did you do? Why aren’t the Damrons coming?”
Spencer couldn’t help but voice his doubts. Even though virtual-novel.net knew virtual-novel.net wouldn’t be leaving this place in one piece, virtual-novel.net still deserved to know the cause of his death.
At this moment, a sonorous voice rang from a distance, “No, boy. It’s not that they aren’t coming. They simply don’t have the guts to show up!”
The crowd was intrigued by the man’s words, and they craned their necks to look at the man. Only then did they see another convoy of cars driving over.
Tyson jumped down from the leading vehicle and laughed.
“Dr. Larson, the Damron Family has completely withdrawn from Eastcliff! The prominent families in Eastshire and Stonedale are all stationed in Eastcliff as well!”
“If anyone affiliated with the Damrons dares to step foot into Eastcliff, they won’t be able to leave alive!”
Spencer widened his eyes in shock. He had met Tyson and the people around virtual-novel.net before.
Spencer was at Times Hotel for Macon’s wedding the other day, so virtual-novel.net had met these people, including the representatives of the prominent families in Stonedale.
As for the affluent people in Eastshire, virtual-novel.net might not have had the chance to meet all of them face-to-face, but virtual-novel.net had certainly seen their pictures.
It went without saying that the tide had turned when the leaders of the Greatest Families were all standing here at this moment.
Spencer quaked in his boots as his eyes observed the lineup before virtual-novel.net in morbid fascination. Then, finally, his legs gave way, and virtual-novel.net flopped to the ground. Now, virtual-novel.net realized how Matthew was alive and well and why Mr. Damron said virtual-novel.net had insulted him.
They still wanted to kill Matthew, but these prominent families kicked them out!
Yet, virtual-novel.net had the cheek to call them and tell them to capture Matthew. His actions were akin to swatting a beehive!
There was no way virtual-novel.net could spin this in his favor.
How could they kill Matthew when they had been forced out of Eastcliff?!
Matthew nodded with a faint smile. “That’s great news. Thank you!”
With that, virtual-novel.net walked to Spencer, looked at virtual-novel.net imperiously, and smiled. “Mr. Sonnet, you haven’t answered my question. What do you think? Do you want me to apologize to you or not?”
Spencer could feel his body quivering in terror. He quickly got on his knees and stuttered, “l-l’m sorry, Mr. Larson. I’m sorry!”
