Chapter 1475

At Philip's words, one of the family heads immediately responded and declared his support in killing

Matthew. This particular family head, who was closer to Philip in comparison to the rest, could be said

to be Philip's lapdog. That was why this family head had enthusiastically voiced his support for Philip’s

suggestion.

The other seven family heads looked at each other with hesitation in their eyes, as they were conflicted

over their next course of action. On one hand, they were indeed afraid that it was all just sweet words

that were designed to set them up. On the other hand, they feared the crown prince as well as Poison

Spider. Not to mention, they were reluctant to give up the astronomical profits the Restoration Pill would

bring them. Thus, they couldn't choose one option over the other and could only be steeped in

hesitation.

With a faint smile, Matthew said, "Master White, did you think I have not done a proper investigation

regarding the affairs of the Cosby Family? You were the one who had orchestrated that incident. The

plans and ideas all came from you! So, why would the other family heads be related to it? I hope you

didn't forget how you've even made a fool out of the Cosby Family with this incident. Yet, you're trying

to stick close with other family heads now? Won't that just put the Cosby Family against the rest of the

families here once they find out the truth of the matter?"

Upon Matthew's words, the other seven family heads' expressions changed. In truth, the said incident

was planned by all nine of the family heads here. Although they became afraid at the mention of the

Cosby Family, they heaved a sigh of relief when they listened to Matthew shifting the blame onto the

White Family. They all shared similar thoughts. We've indeed involved the

Cosby Family. Even if we kill Matthew Larson here, who would bear the responsibility when the Cosby

Family comes knocking at our doors?

Master Wayne was the first to speak up. He said loudly, "Master White, you should mind your words!

That incident was your idea alone and has nothing to do with us! Mr. Larson, although we have heard

about that incident, I assure you that we were not involved in it."

The six other family heads followed suit and claimed their innocence as well. These seven family heads

were smart enough to take this chance to claim their non-involvement in the incident, as they would be

able to claim innocence even if the Cosby Family came at them in the future.

Philip's expression became twisted as the other family heads pinned the blame on him alone. He

realized their actions now meant that they wouldn't side with him in taking Matthew down and that he

was only left with that lapdog of his. He knew very well that he couldn't take Matthew on with only two

family heads here.

Gritting his teeth in anger, Philip said, "What a load of nonsense! We were all involved in that incident!

Do you think Larson wouldn't know about it?! Do you really think that he would let you all off the hook if

you all claimed innocence in this matter?! Keep dreaming! That man is trying to divide us and come

after us one at a time! Don't be fooled by him!"

The seven family heads all averted their gazes and completely ignored Philip. With Poison Spider and

the crown prince in Eastshire now, they knew it would be dangerous to fight Matthew currently. Hence,

they decided to emphasize their innocence in that incident, especially since Matthew had offered them

an attractive offer. In such a situation, it was obvious just which option the family heads would choose.
