The appearance of Leanna amazed many at the scene. Once the most beautiful woman in Eastcliff, she
had an extra charm of a matured woman which made her seem a little more captivating than Sasha.
Narrowing his eyes, Samuel felt his heart beat with desire. He had seen quite a few beauties on this trip
to Eastcliff! However, why are all these beauties speaking up for Matthew?
The head of the Sandel Family frowned and said solemnly, “Leanna, don’t act presumptuously! The
evidence that Mr. Jackson presented is sufficient. There’s no need for Mr. Larson to say anything else!
You shouldn’t be here. Go home!”
Completely unaffected, she chuckled in indifference. “Uncle, you’re just here as a witness. Is there a
need for you to speak up for the Jacksons like this?”
“What do you mean by that?” he shouted angrily,
“I mean, you need to have your own judgment in everything you do. Even if you don’t, you shouldn’t
simply jump to conclusions. It’s nothing if you embarrass yourself, but you’ll be condemned if you
embarrass the entire family!”
Hopping mad with anger, he berated, “Are you lecturing me, Leanna? Don’t forget that I’m your father’s
elder brother and you’re my junior. How dare you disrespect me like this?”
Giving him another chuckle of indifference, she snapped, “Don’t you forget this as well, Uncle. Back then,
who was the one who drove me out of the Sandel Family and was completely ruthless toward me?”
“Y-You!” he stuttered.
Everyone present watched in amusement as there was nothing they loved more than a family conflict.
Leanna’s return had caused a huge increase in the Sandel’s strength and it steadily suppressed the
other nine families. If she had an argument with the Sandels, their power would definitely decrease
greatly and the other nine families would be happy to see such a situation happening.
So, even though the head of the Sandel Family was hopping mad with anger, he knew about this fact
very well. Having a fallout with her would only embarrass themselves and cost a huge loss to their family.
In the end, he could only glare at her fiercely and swallowed his pride in silence.
Knitting his brows, Old Master Jackson gave Harvey a look and immediately said, “What do you mean by
that, Leanna? Do you want to interfere in this incident between the Jacksons and Mr. Larson?”
“No, I’m not,” she replied with a chuckle. “I’m merely here as a witness in case somebody tries to convict
others with some weak evidence!”
Enraged, he barked, “Leanna, look carefully. These are all conclusive evidence!”
Another deep voice came from outside the door at this moment, saying, “Conclusive? How so? Did your
surveillance tapes capture Mr. Larson commit the murder? You’re randomly convicting others based on
some assumptions! Do you even know what conclusive evidence is? It seems to me that the Jacksons
can do nothing more than making irresponsible remarks and foolish talks!” As he spoke, Timothy
marched into the room and made a grand entrance with his group of men.
Old Master Jackson’s face instantly switched when he saw one of the big shots of Eastcliff; none of them
from the Ten Greatest Families could match up to him. It was said that Timothy was in pretty good terms
with Matthew, so was he here to help him out?
Losing his composure, Harvey stuttered a little as he spoke, “M-Mr. Wayne, someone from my family
was murdered. Shouldn’t we ask for justice?”
Timothy gave an indifferent laugh. “I didn’t say that you shouldn’t. I’m only here tonight as a witness.
Everyone, continue!”
The scene became a little unsettled with the appearance of Timothy and Leanna, which went to show
that the event tonight wouldn’t be that simple anymore.
Harvey gritted his teeth and shot Matthew an infuriated look. “Since Miss Sandel thought that that is just
my one-sided opinion, then I’ll give you a chance. Mr. Larson, you claim that we’ve wronged you, but do
you have evidence?”
“Of course,” he replied with a smirk. “Not only do I have the evidence, I can even prove that Zachary’s
murderer is in our midst tonight!”
His words immediately sparked an uproar among everyone present.
