Several of the crown prince's men immediately rushed over and dragged Santiago away.

Sandra hurriedly came forward and begged in her trembling voice, "Prince, Prince... Please spare him... He didn't mean to do this. He... He's still just a child... Prince, please, I beg you..." Then, she turned her sight on Tommy. "Tommy, y-you say something too..."

However, Tommy only stood up in silence and walked over to Sandra before stabbing her neck with the dagger he drew from the back of his body.

Pressing her neck wound with her hand, Sandra glared at Tommy. "You... You..."

Seeing this, Santiago immediately bellowed, "Tommy Marshall! How dare you kill my sister! I'll take you down right now!" He tried to attack Tommy, but couldn't move a muscle as he was firmly being held down by the crown prince's men.

After Tommy wiped the blood on the dagger clean, he coldly looked at Sandra. "The biggest mistake in my life was to indulge you two too much! If only you knew how to control that boy, and knew to tell him just what he can or can't do, then things would not be this way today! Now that it's come to this, not only are you pleading for his life, but you're still asking me to help that boy? Right now, I can't wait to get my hands on him and kill him myself!"

No one could tell just whether the expression on Sandra's face was resignation or regret when she was listening to Tommy. Regardless, she fell into her own pool of blood while still holding onto her neck wound and died tragically on the spot in the end. Santiago, on the other hand, was dragged away by the crown prince's men. As for Tommy, Matthew said nothing further, but only threw him a dagger. Under Matthew's fierce gaze, Tommy could only pick up the dagger and stab his own heart. In the end, the head of the Eastshire gang used his own life as payment as well, all due to overindulging his family. Matthew did not take even a single glance at the end of these people, as he went straight back into the private room.

Currently, Robin was still holding Tiana in his arms as they sat bewildered in the corner. As there were too many things happening outside, and too many people appearing, he was completely in the dark as to the current situation. Rat, who was by Matthew's side the entire time, wasn't sure of the situation as well, even though he had witnessed the whole process. However, his intuition told him that Matthew was a big shot, a real and genuine big shot.

With a calm expression, Matthew sat at the table after he entered the room. "Robin, come. Let's continue our meal."

Robin looked blankly at Rat, as he was afraid to sit at the table. Rat shared the same sentiment and was afraid to even breathe loudly.

Just then, the crown prince came in as well. "What's everyone standing around for? Let's eat!" he said as he gave a slap on Rat's back.

Shivering in fear, Rat turned his attention to the crown prince and then Matthew, yet said nothing out of fear.

"Sit down already. What's wrong? You don't even recognize me anymore even though it's only been a while?" Matthew asked.

Trembling, Rat went and sat at the table with his thoughts in disarray. On the other hand, Matthew was just as usual, as he continued to give food to Tiana while enjoying a conversation with the crown prince. As for the ten family heads, they were dealing with the aftermath outside.

Half an hour later, they were done with their meal.

The crown prince was the first to stand. "Robin, Tiana, you two should follow me!"

Unsure of what was happening, Robin and Tiana looked at each other with bewildered expressions. Slightly panicking himself, Rat hurriedly looked at Matthew. "Mr. Larson, that's

Matthew waved his hand. "Don't Mr. Larson me. Just call me Matthew like

before."

Rat scratched his head awkwardly before he tentatively said, "Yes, Matthew."

With a smile, Matthew nodded. "As I've said before, I will help cure your sister if you do me a favor. Although we're done with our matters here in Cummeal, I still have other matters to attend to. Rat, are you willing to be my driver for a short period, and help me out on something while you're at it?"
