This wasn't the first time Matthew had seen Poison Spider, but he still felt amazed when he watched her walk in. Even if her beauty was evenly matched with Sasha, Leanna, and Jinny, just her aura alone was enough to surpass all of them. Even as she stood quietly, she emanated a cold and regal elegance, as if she was a ruler who controlled everything, and everyone had to crawl beneath her feet. After all, she was the Poison Spider of Mightwater, and their one and only queen.

Matthew quickly waved his hand. "I'm sorry, I only called you that because the crown prince and I are good friends..."

Instantly, Poison Spider interrupted, "Shut up! I don't care if you're good friends with the crown prince. Either way, you can't call me Mrs. Warde!"

With that said, she walked up to him and grabbed him by the collar, looking straight into his eyes. "After all, what if you fell for me one day? I have to give you a chance, right?"

Matthew was speechless by her brazenness. The crown prince, on the other hand, looked calm, as if he had gotten used to this a long time ago.

Matthew took a step back and surrendered. "Anyway, I have to thank you for your help this time. I've already asked someone to liquidate the White Family's assets, and I'll give half of it to you later." Poison Spider waved her hand in dismissal. "You can deal with these matters as you like. If there's nothing else, I'll be heading back first."

Matthew asked in surprise, "You just reached Eastshire this morning. Are you leaving already?"

Poison Spider replied, "I've already dealt with the White Family for you, so my work here is complete. If I stay here, wouldn't I have to sleep alone since you won't spend the night with me?" Matthew was instantly rendered speechless and was unable to answer. Poison Spider laughed loudly, as if she had succeeded in teasing him, then left triumphantly.

After the crown prince sent Poison Spider away, he immediately returned to the room to ask about the situation on Matthew's end.

After Matthew finished explaining, he laughed out loud, clapping his hands in jubilance. "That's great. After this incident, those seven families would be completely committed to you. That way, you've basically taken over the entire Eastshire."

Matthew nodded slowly. This time, the destruction of the White Family and the abolition of the Sullivan Family was an example to the rest, and he had also distributed a fair share of profits to those seven families as a favor. By mingling exaltation with threats, they had completely given in to him. Next, he had to find a way to gradually increase his influence.

For the next few days, Matthew busied himself with handling the affairs in Eastshire. The destruction of the White Family and the Sullivan Family was a huge shock to them. If Matthew hadn't been taking charge of things himself, it would not be easy to deal with things with just the seven great families alone. However, as Matthew personally remained in Eastshire, plus the crown prince's assistance, these matters were easily settled.

Next, he had another important matter to deal with, and that was to reconstruct the Ten Greatest Families of Eastshire. After he destroyed the Fisher Family, the ten families became nine, and now that he had destroyed the White Family and the Sullivan Family as well, there were only seven families left of the Ten Greatest Families. Hence, he had to reselect three families to complete the ten families.

After the news had spread, the big families in Eastshire became excited. After all, being able to join the Ten Greatest Families was not only an honor, but also a chance to gain more opportunities and a bigger say in important affairs. Because of that, every big family did everything possible to squeeze into the scope of the Ten Greatest Families. Therefore, after they acquired this piece of information, many of them were eager to shoot their shot.
