Chapter 1339
After Matthew had walked away, Claire led the other rich kids and together, they dragged Charlie and his friends
to a corner.
The reason they had faced such a brutal punishment that night was thanks to the trio.
Hence, sparing them was out of the equation.
Meanwhile, Matthew entered the largest private room located at the penthouse and sat down together with the
heads of the Ten Greatest Families.
Philip began the discussion.
"Mr.Larson, let's get down to business. Billy Newman has left and he won't be coming back, so someone should
take over his legacy. Many years ago, the Ten Greatest Families made an agreement with Mr.Newman that we
would be given priority in taking over everything that belonged to Mr.Newman in Eastcliff if he leaves. What do
you say, Mr.Larson?"

Upon hearing that, Matthew answered, "I'm sorry, but | have never heard about this agreement from
Mr.Newman. Besides, although he has left, his daughter is still around. Therefore, his descendent should be
taking over all the assets that Mr.Newman left behind, no?"
In other words, Matthew implied that the Ten Greatest Families had no rights to inherit Billy's properties since
they were not Billy's descendents.
All the heads of the families were annoyed, but the head of the Fisher Family was the first to voice out his rage
by smacking the table.
"Matthew Larson, don't get too cocky! I'm warning you this is Eastshire, not Eastclifft"
Matthew scoffed in response.
"So, what? The last t| was in Eastshire, you guys failed to keepdespite having sent so many people to
stop me!"
"ou."
The head of the Fisher Family was so pissed that he nearly flipped the table, but he was stopped by Philip.
Philip nonchalantly looked at Matthew.
"Young men shouldn't be too greedy! You won't be able to keep things that don't belong to you! | believe that
you are aware that being too cocky will only get you into trouble." Matthew darted them a look and chuckled
coldly.
"Of course I'm aware of the character of the Ten Greatest Families. You guys not only want Billy's assets, but
everything that | have in my hands as well! However, I'm afraid that it won't be easy to snatch all these from me
even with the strength you all possess now!"
Instead of being mad, Philip chuckled.
"Would you like to give it a try?"
"I'm now here in this room. What do you think?" Matthew asked.
Philip's expression fell and he forced a smile.
"What do you mean?"
Matthew sneered, "What do | mean? Philip, the Ten Greatest Families have never planned to talk things out with
What else could your purpose be when you were willing to say so many nice words downstairs just to persuade
He paused, then surveyed the surroundings and continued, "The Ten Greatest Families have spent a fortune to
hire thirteen gold-rated assassins. They must be lying in ambush nearby, right?"
At that moment, the expressions of all the heads of the family sank.
The truth was just as Matthew had mentioned-they had indeed spent a hefty amount of money to hire thirteen
gold-rated assassins to deal with Matthew. However, this was a secret only the ten of them should have known.
How did Matthew find out about this? Seeing that the plan had been exposed, Philip stopped hiding his intention
and muttered, "H-How did you know about this?"
As soon as he had said that, a cold voice rang from the door.
"It waswho told him! Any employment of gold-rated assassins in the Six Southern States will not escape my
eyes!"
Then, the door was kicked open.
Everyone looked in that direction, only to see the crown prince swaggering into the room with an arrogant
expression along with a large group of men behind him. Everyone's expression becdark upon seeing him.
Philip bellowed, "Prince, what's all this? This is an internal issue of Eastshire.Could it be that the Poison Spider of
Mightwater is meddling with the matter of Easthire? Hmph! If Master Levi finds out about this, | wonder how you
are going to explain it to him!"
