Chapter 1719

Matthew returned to Eastshire that very same day.

However, he wasn't in a rush to make his return known and asked Melvin to meet up with him instead.

Melvin took over things in Eastshire the few days Matthew was in the Southeast State.

"How are things now?" Matthew asked.

Melvin furrowed his brows deeply. "Bad. The Ten Greatest Families of Stonedale has allied with a few

families from the Ten Greatest Families of Eastshire. They basically have full control of Eastshire now.

Macon even sent a bride-dowry to President Cunningham and said that he will marry her. He's going to

pick her up tomorrow for the ceremony."

The blood left Matthew's face hearing that. "What?!"

Melvin continued gloomily, "Macon wanted Cunningham Pharmaceuticals to hand over the Restoration

Pill, but President Cunningham would rather die than to do that. Besides, everyone knows that it was

Cunningham Pharmaceuticals that invented the pill. He could not get his hands on it, so he thought of

this scheme to marry her and do a hostile takeover of the company. Then, the Restoration Pill would

fall into his hands."

Matthew punched the table out of anger. "F*ck, Macon! What about Sasha? How is she now?"

Melvin answered, "President Cunningham is being detained at home against her will. The Ten Greatest

Families of Stonedale sent many guards to watch over her. There's no way she could run. Macon also

caught her parents and a few of your friends. He threatened her that if she ran away or did not marry

him, he would kill those people. So, she didn't have a choice."

Matthew's face only became colder as anger flashed across his face.

Macon was despicable!

However, Melvin was not done talking. "Not only that, Macon even beat Stanley up and almost took

over Brittany's house. Fortunately, Master Levi came out at that time and stopped him from doing more

harm to her."

Matthew's face went icy hard. "He dared to harm Brittany? Is he crazy?"

Melvin shrugged. "He's always been conceited. He probably thinks that the Nolan Family doesn't care

about her. So, he wanted to use this opportunity to gain control of Billy's businesses. However, he was

wrong. Master Levi would never let that happen. If the granddaughter of the Nolan Family died in the

South, he would not be able to answer them. So, Master Levi will protect Brittany at all costs."

Matthew nodded at that, but he frowned soon after. "Did he say anything about us, though?"

Hearing that, Melvin's face turned sour and he said in a low voice, "He was ambushed last night and

suffered serious injuries. If it wasn't for our men beside him, he would have died. However, one of his

hands was still chopped off. It could not be reattached." Updated at Drаmanovels.com

Matthew pursed his lips. "Who did this?"
