Chapter 1603

In a cold tone, the middle-aged man said, "He's part of the Ten Greatest Families. Since he was

attacked, it's naturally a matter of the Ten Greatest Families!"

Matthew sneered, "Is that true? Does that mean that he was representing the Ten Greatest Families

when he did what he did?"

The middle-aged man frowned. "What's the point of you speaking around in circles? Even if you try to

stall for time, there is no one here who can save you! You either publicly apologize to him or break your

own arm! Otherwise, we, the Ten Greatest Families, will settle the score instead. Now, choose!"

Matthew snorted at the man's words. "Settle the score?

Hmph, we do indeed need to settle the score. However, it's still not clear who is the one settling the

score here."

"What do you mean?" the middle-aged man snarled.

"What do I mean?" Matthew's tone turned cold. "I should be the one asking you that question. Is it

because he's a member of the Ten Greatest Families that you all indulge him and allow him to conduct

such transgression?"

The middle-aged man refuted, "What do you mean by transgression? It's only right that we chase out

people who are trying to disrupt the event..."

"I have nothing to say about your actions in chasing these men away. However, as a man, he should at

least have some decency toward a woman, don't you think so? But, he was being inappropriate with

Miss Harrison. Don't you think he deserves a beating for this? Yet, here you are protecting that man.

Unless of course, you're saying that the Ten Greatest Families of Stonedale had instructed him to

commit such indecency?"

Upon Matthew's statement, a furor broke out among the crowd, while the members of the Ten Greatest

Families' anger grew.

"What did you say?!"

Just who was being indecent?!

"How dare you insult the Ten Greatest Families?! We will not rest until you're dead!"

"Damn it! Just who does this f*cker think he is for spouting such nonsense?! Get him!"

Everyone shouting for blood completely fueled the people of the Ten Greatest Families' anger.

As the middle-aged man's face went red with anger, he pointed at Matthew and barked, "Watch your

mouth! You'll pay with your blood for your insulting remarks about the Ten Greatest Families!"

At this point, even the family heads upstairs were angered over Matthew's statement, as he ruthlessly

made such a negative blanket statement about them.

The middle-aged man turned his head toward the family heads upstairs and found them nodding at him

in approval. Seeing this, the middle-aged man clenched his fists and turned his attention back to

Matthew before he said coldly, "Young lad, since you've said this much, a simple apology is no longer

sufficient to dissolve this situation! Now that the reputation of the Ten Greatest Families is at stake, I

will not rest until your death unless you can explain yourself!" Coոtent оf
