The Crisis of the Telk Family
The next morning, Matthew received news from Wilson. The Leigh Family––one of the Ten Greatest
Families––gathered a few other families to join forces and acquire the Telk Family’s Renaissance Mall.
The intention of the Leigh Family was obvious. Since the Telk Family sold 30 percent of Renaissance
mall’s shares to Matthew, they were deemed to have betrayed the Ten Greatest Families.
As such, the Telk Family was not qualified to continue remaining as one of the Ten Greatest Families,
and it was reasonable for them to forfeit Renaissance Mall’s shares.
The other great families did not raise any objection to this matter, and in fact, they were very supportive
of it.
Truth was, the Ten Greatest Families had their interests involved among one another. As such, everyone
desired to secure as many advantages as they could for themselves.
After eliminating the Telk Family, the remaining nine families would be able to gain benefits from it, so of
course, they were all willing to participate.
Nevertheless, Matthew was not too surprised after learning about the news as he thought it was an
ordinary outcome.
He knew the voodoo clan couldn’t possibly have only contacted the Telk Family and the Lewis Family
among the Ten Greatest Families in Orleans, so he was certain that there must be other hidden families.
Last night, he deliberately set the Telk Family up with two motives—to find the location of the voodoo
clan and to lure out the families among the Ten Greatest Families who were collaborating with the clan.
As of now, it was actually the Leigh Family who initiated to destroy the Telk Family.
As such, it was no doubt that the Leigh Family was the one collaborating with the voodoo clan.
The Leigh Family was one of the top three families among the Ten Greatest Families.
They were extremely powerful and influential, so it was possible that they were bought off by the voodoo
clan.
Without hesitating, Matthew quickly hurried to the Telks.
At this moment, the family was already in chaos.
Philip was still in a coma after being poisoned by Matthew last night and Wesley suffered a miserable
death. To add fuel to the fire, the Telk Family was currently faced with such a huge blow, so everyone in
the family was in a panic.
Despite having Aloysius lead the family, his influence as the family head was actually far less than
Philip’s.
Seeing Matthew, Aloysius forced himself to remain steady. “Mr. Larson, what brings you here again? Is
30 percent of Renaissance Mall’s shares still not enough?!”
Matthew glared coldly at him and said, “I’m not going to talk nonsense with you, Aloysius. I came with
two motives. First, to save Philip. Second, to save the entire Telk Family! ”
Aloysius was startled. “W-What do you mean?”
Matthew blurted, “There’s no point beating around the bush at this moment. If you can’t decide, bring me
to meet Philip first!”
Aloysius gritted his teeth and ended up bringing Matthew into the inner room.
At this point in time, Philip was lying on the bed in a coma with a miserable look.
Upon seeing him, Matthew immediately took out a pill without wasting more time.
“Feed him this and he’ll be fine within 10 minutes!”
Aloysius stared at the pill with a hesitant look.
Seeing that, Matthew glared at him. “Idiot! Philip is already in such a situation. I have no reason to poison
him again!”
Feeling awkward, Aloysius quickly answered, “That’s not what I meant, Mr. Larson.”
With that, he took over the pill and fed it to Philip.
In less than 10 minutes, Philip gradually regained consciousness. He was indeed back to normal!
Aloysius was overjoyed while Philip gazed at Matthew in confusion.
Thereafter, Aloysius quickly filled Philip in on the current situation.
The latter broke out in tears immediately when he heard about Wesley’s miserable death.
Nevertheless, he was not too surprised when he was told that the other nine families had joined forces to
acquire the Telks’ assets.
“It’s normal for people to hit a man when he’s down. Living in this world, no matter how important or
powerful one is, he or she can’t avoid being involved in interests!” Philip sighed.
With a pale countenance, Aloysius mumbled, “Dad, now the Ten Greatest Families are forcing us to give
Renaissance Mall to them. W-What should we do?”
Standing aside, the other Telk family members wore a panicked look too as this was the greatest crisis in
Telk Family’s history.
With that, Philip did not answer Aloysius but looked toward Matthew. “Mr. Larson, since you’ve come, I
believe you have a way to solve this. Do you mind enlightening us?”
