Chapter 1873

Matthew's assumption was correct. The rumors did not provoke Master Levi at all. Instead of dealing

with Matthew, he arrested those who spread the rumors and executed them directly to warn the public,

proving his support for Matthew with his power.

In that way, no one in the South would have the guts to spread such rumors anymore.

Matthew laughed off the situation and expressed his gratitude to Master Levi through a few polite

words. To be frank, he was well aware that everything Master Levi did was considered from the

perspective of profit. Therefore, Matthew wasn't grateful to him at all!

A week later, Matthew still hadn't seen any moves from the Damron Family.

On the contrary, all the way from Bainbridge, there was news of the Damrons planning an engagement

ceremony with the Nolans! The Damron Family's daughter was set to marry into the Nolan Family, and

this was a marriage that Mark had spent a lot of effort to obtain. Hence, it was a matter of great

importance to them. Needless to say, the engagement ceremony was very important to them.

Hearing the news, Matthew couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. He finally knew why the Damron

Family was so quiet. They were simply too busy to handle him!

The marriage between the Damron Family and the Nolan Family was no doubt more important than

everything else.

Since the engagement was drawing near, the Damrons must be focused on that now. Why would they

busy themselves with other trivial matters? After receiving the news, Matthew started planning ways to

bring Sasha and the rest back from Mightwater.

At 11.00PM, Matthew sat cross-legged in his chamber, practicing the Divine Skill, when his phone

suddenly vibrated.

He was startled by it because the vibration was a signal from the heat detector installed outside his

villa, and it was to alert him of someone entering his house.

Usually, Matthew would practice martial arts around this hour. Those who lived nearby wouldn't disturb

him if there was nothing particularly important. Even if there was something important, couldn't they call

him first? Not many could enter his villa at will, except for Melvin, Tiger, and a few others. Who could be

visiting at this hour?

Matthew walked out of his chamber with doubts, only to see that the living room was pitch black, and a

person was sitting on the couch. Nevertheless, it was hard to make out who it was.

"Melvin?" Matthew asked doubtfully.

Without answering him, the man got up slowly. At this moment, Matthew felt an indescribable sense of

danger. He subconsciously parted his lips to call for help, but just then, a strong gust of wind hit his

back.

The person who attacked was extremely fast, and even though Matthew wanted to dodge him, it was

already a step too late.

A palm was slapped on the back of his head. Matthew's vision went dark at that moment, and he

passed out immediately.

In the darkness, a person came out from behind Matthew. It was none other than—Aurelius.

Just then, the man in the living room came out of the darkness, allowing the lights to shine on his

appearance. He was an old man around his sixties with a frail figure, but his eyes were shining brightly.

At first glance, one could tell that he had a strong inner energy. Coոtent beloոgs to Draмąnоvеls.cоm
