Man With Super Medical Skill (Matthew) -
Chapter 256
Old Master Jackson's face turned as pale as a sheet.
Although the Jacksons was one of the Ten Greatest Families of the city, the family was nothing in the presence of Billy.
There was nothing he could do now that Billy was threatening to take the ten lives of his family.
At that juncture, Harvey remarked indignantly, "Billy Newman, it was Matthew Larson who wanted to exchange his life for 300 million. My family didn't say anything of that sort! What's more, his life can't be worth the same as my family members!"
Harvey looked baffled not knowing what he had done wrong.
Billy first glimpsed at Harvey before challenging him in an icy voice, "Why do you think so? Do you think that my friend isn't as respectable as the people of your family? Harvey Jackson, do you think too highly of yourself or do you have too low an opinion of me?"
Looking shaken, it suddenly dawned upon Harvey why he was criticized by Old Master Jackson just now.
His statement just now was akin to a humiliation to the First King of Eastcliff!
With resignation written all over his face, Old Master Jackson caved in with a sigh, "Master Newman, of course he's worth 300 million since he's your friend! Scott, go and get the money ready and apologize to Mr. Larson on my behalf!"
A slight commotion ensued among the people present seeing that the Jacksons had yielded to Billy.
Billy sneered, "Connor Jackson, I'm impressed by how flexible you are. But, your son humiliated me just now. Don't you think you have to do something about that?"
Old Master Jackson asked, "Master Newman, what would you like me to do?"
"At first, I'd like to offer 300 million to buy his life. But since you're willing to offer the compensation together with the apology to Matthew, I'll help you salvage whatever is remaining of your dignity. Well, just beat your son up until he loses all his teeth and I will then forget about everything that has happened today!"
Old Master Jackson's face looked grim when he heard Billy but in the end, he still waved his hands to summon his men and ordered through gritted teeth, "He deserves to get such a punishment for having the guts to humiliate Master Newman! All of you, come and do exactly as Master Newman said!"
Harvey trembled with horror as he pleaded, "Dad,! Dad, please don't do this to me, please don't..."
Old Master Jackson shut his eyes because there was nothing he could do despite the intense pain in his heart.
Harvey would not have received that punishment if he had not made that statement just now.
However, since he had said that, he had no choice but to accept the punishment!
Soon, someone from the Jackson Family passed a card to Matthew informing him that they would transfer the 300 million to the card.
That was the end of the dramatic saga and Matthew decided to keep the pendrive with him.
He would leave it to the Jacksons to deal with Samuel.
Seeing that the issue had been solved, Billy and Timothy bid farewell with Matthew before leaving with their men.
Instead of leaving, Matthew made a dash to the backyard to pick up Sasha and her family who were locked up inside a room.
Sasha was so anxious that she kept on pacing back and forth.
Demi scoffed, "Sasha, why're you panicking? Don't you believe that Matthew isn't the murderer? Why have you lost your confidence all of a sudden? Everything will be alright. I'm sure Matthew will live a long life, even longer than a turtle! Ha ha ha..."
Sasha looked grim when she heard Demi's frivolous remark.
Liam taunted, "He will live a long life? I guess we'll be asked to collect his dead body soon!"
Sasha, who was enraged to hear that comment, confronted him, "Liam, what nonsense are you talking about?"
Demi snapped back immediately, "Did he say anything wrongly? The evidence clearly shows that Matthew is the murderer and I'm sure the Jacksons will get him killed by tonight! Let me tell you right now that won't help him collect his body!"
James nodded his head slowly in agreement. "She's right. He has nothing to do with our family! None of the Cunninghams is allowed to collect his body or I'll sever any ties with the person and the person will be asked to leave my house immediately!"
Sasha panicked and exclaimed, "Dad, how could you say something like that? Matthew has always done everything for the good of our family. He's still trying to ask for compensation for our family even at this hour! Can't you just pray for something good to happen to him?"
Helen countered with her lips pursed, "Who cares about the compensation he can get us? I'm making my stance very clear right now-even if he manages to get us the compensation, I won't even look at it and I won't use a single cent of it!"
