Man With Super Medical Skill (Matthew)
Chapter 253

Having sensed that something was not right, Samuel intended to take to his heels right away.

However, he had no chance to do so because Matthew had been fixing his gaze on him.

All eyes were on Samuel at the moment.

Some of them who were sharper than the rest could see that Samuel must have had something to do with the murder.

In the beginning, he thought the murderer was Matthew, who was a man without a powerful background.

Even though he was backed by both Timothy Wayne and Billy Newman, he still didn't have a strong foundation in the city.

Killing him would not result in too big a fuss.

However, things would be different now that the murder had something to do with the Hughes.

Samuel Hughes was quite well respected in his family. If they killed him, they would have to face the revenge from the Hughes Family.

That was one of the Ten Greatest Families of Eastcliff who was way more powerful and influential than the Jackson Family. Therefore, they could not afford to let that happen.

At the moment, the Jacksons were left in a very awkward position in the current stage of events.

Should they avenge the death of Zachary Jackson?

Zachary was just a member of their family who had lost the right to inherit the family wealth. It was not worthwhile to offend the entire Hughes Family for his sake. However, people from the Ten Greatest Families were here observing their actions.

If they decided to give up avenging Zachary's death, the reputation and status of the Jackson Family in the Ten Greatest Families would suffer a tremendous blow.

On top of that, their family would be deemed as a bunch of cowards who feared the strongs and only had the guts to bully the weaks.

The prestigious reputation which had taken them a great effort to build would dissipate all at once!

Suddenly, Old Master Jackson realized the gravest mistake he had made was his refusal to let Matthew go and his mistake had put his family in a very difficult situation.

He opened his eyes and cast a secret look at someone standing next to him.

Understanding what he meant, the man then walked over to the table and pretended to spill a glass of water on the computer accidentally.

The computer was switched off directly, the screen darkened at once and the video came to an abrupt halt.

The people at the scene went uproarious at once.

Old Master Jackson seized the chance to rise to his feet and criticized, "Scott, how could you be so careless? How could you make such a blunder at such a crucial moment? Alas, it seems like we won't be able to continue watching the video tonight! Ladies and gentlemen, should we carry on tomorrow?"

Some of them sniggered contemptuously when they heard his statement.

None of them at the scene was dumb. It was very obvious to them that the Jacksons had deliberately damaged the computer so that the matter could be postponed for the time being. Otherwise, what should they do if Samuel Hughes was proven to be the murderer?

At that juncture, Timothy rose to his feet and said, "Old Master Jackson, a faulty computer is not a big problem because we can solve it by just getting another computer here, isn't it? In such a huge mansion, I don't think this is the only computer you have?"

Scott, who had damaged the computer just now, spoke immediately, "Our family has never followed the trend of technology and our mansion is renovated in a traditional and simple way. Therefore, that's the only computer we have. I'm afraid it will be a waste of time to get another computer here from somewhere else because this area is quite far away from town. Guys, it won't make any difference to continue the investigation tomorrow!"

Leanna sneered, "Mr. Jackson, you guys were so anxious to bring Matthew here tonight. Not only do you guys want to confront him in public for Zachary's death, you guys want to get him killed too. Why do you guys become suddenly so patient when it's Matthew's time to prove his innocence? If we postpone this to tomorrow, all of us will have to make the trip over here again. Isn't that a waste of our time too?"

Looking embarrassed, Scott said solemnly, "Guys, anyone who's busy tomorrow is allowed to be absent tomorrow. My family will get to the bottom of this ourselves and by the time we have the result, we'll give everyone a satisfactory answer!"

Everyone burst out laughing after listening to his statement because what he said did not even sound believable to a kid.

At the moment, a powerful voice suddenly came from the entrance, "Conner Jackson, I have just one question for you-do you still think Mr. Larson is the murderer?"

That voice caused a commotion at the scene right away.

Connor Jackson was Old Master Jackson's name.

Who had the guts to address him directly by his name in Eastcliff?

Even the old masters of the rest of the nine families would not be so rude to him.

However, no one had the guts to rebuke the owner of the voice.

It was because there really existed a man who was audacious enough to do that in Eastcliff-he was none other than the most powerful man in the city, Billy Newman!
