The crowd turned their heads to see a tall man striding out from the back. Seeing this man, all the people
in the room immediately stood up and greeted with smiles, “Elder White, what brings you here?”
This man was none other than the head of the White Family that was among the top ten families in
Eastcliff—Declan White! The White Family was ranked on the upper-middle level among the top ten
families. As for Declan, he had a powerful control and influence over the White Family. Richard White,
the old master of the White Family, was in very poor health, so he hadn’t involved himself in the family’s
affairs for many years. Thus, it could be said that Declan, among the family heads of the ten families,
was one of the family heads wielding the most power. Now that he showed up in person, the crowd was
naturally shocked.
Declan walked up to the crowd and waved his hand. “Gentlemen, do sit down!”
Only then did the crowd sit down. Then, Gordon cautiously said, “E-Elder White, do you also support us
in going up against Stanley?”
Just now, Declan had made his attitude clear with one sentence. And this, too, caused the mood of the
crowd to bubble with excitement. After all, Stanley was very strong and not someone that they could
deal with by themselves. However, it would be different if there was Declan backing them up. After all,
the White Family was one of the top ten families, so its strength was far beyond Stanley’s!
Declan nodded calmly. “Today, I was the one who asked Owen to invite you all over, mainly because
Stanley Carlson has gone too far now. He’s in the medical industry, and we’ve never interfered with his
industry. But he and that Matthew Larson are both investing in real estate now. Moreover, he’s backing
Matthew and refusing to let us get involved in the villa project. This is too much. There must be social
rules in society. Once someone crosses the line, naturally, we have to teach them a lesson!”
The crowd looked at each other, their moods instantly uplifted. Declan was trying to use this incident to
teach Stanley a lesson. To put it bluntly, he was trying to steal the villa project. As for this villa project,
they had been coveting it for a long time, but their collective strength was not enough for them to grab it
from Stanley’s hands.
Now with Declan backing them, they would really dare to fight against Stanley! As for Billy, it was not that
they were not afraid of him, but they just thought that Billy might not make a move when it came to this
kind of thing. After all, when Stanley was in the medical industry, the ten families and other people did
not get involved in it, which meant they had given enough respect to Billy. Now, Stanley had suddenly
gotten involved in the real estate industry, which had broken the unspoken rule. Even if they really
wanted to settle accounts with Stanley, Billy would not be able to say anything!
Gordon was full of excitement. “Elder White, we are relieved to hear this from you. However, I wonder
what exactly your plan is?”
Declan smiled gently and looked at President White, who grinned. “Actually, this matter is very simple.
The villa project is now in the hands of that Matthew Larson. If Matthew dies, then what will happen to
the shares in his hands?”
The crowd was all stunned. Liam, on the other hand, was elated in his heart; he had dreamed every day
of killing Matthew. Now that these people had started to discuss the matter of killing that man, it was
exactly what he wanted!
Gordon replied, “If Matthew dies, the shares will definitely be transferred to his wife. If anyone marries his
wife later, then this problem will be easily resolved! Old Mr. White, I understand what you mean now! You
are planning to have Sam marry Sasha Cunningham!”
Liam’s heart leaped into his throat. If that was really the case, then he couldn’t take advantage of
anything then.
Nevertheless, President White sneered, “How is Sasha worth anything? She’s just used goods; how is
she worthy of marrying my son? What I mean is that if Matthew dies, when the time comes, we will jointly
provide funding and let Mr. Hayes step in to take them. Mr. Hayes is part of their family, so if he does this,
no one will suspect anything. We just need to operate behind the scenes. In fact, we don’t have to show
our faces at all, and we can share the money among ourselves when the time comes.”
