With a cold smile, the man said, "The police will judge whether or not you're lying. Miss Harrison, you're no longer a child. Next time you plan to start rumors about someone, you should have some evidence with you at least." Saying that, the man waved his hand and said loudly, "Take her out!"

There were already several men watching Crystal intently from behind the man. Upon the man's orders, these men came forward to take her out of the venue. Among them, there was a vulgar-looking man who reached out and grabbed her fair wrist. Taken aback, she took a step backward, but the man was not satisfied as he took a step forward and planned to grab her breasts next in the commotion.

Crystal's face grew red with anger, as she would not stand being treated this way. So, she slapped the man's face in retaliation. This slap of hers stunned everyone briefly.

All at once, the man turned livid and said, "You b*tch! You dare raise your hand to me?"

Everyone grew furious as well as one of them shouted, "To even dare raise her hand to someone from the Ten Greatest Families. She's just digging her own grave at this point! Drag her to the back! Today, I will use her blood to wash away the shame brought upon the Ten Greatest Families of Stonedale!"

"Take her out! Take her out!"

The man's words fueled the crowd's outcry. Before, they were only slightly pushing and shoving. Now, they had rushed up against Crystal's men and pinned them to the ground. Although she had brought several bodyguards with her, they were just no match for the people of the Ten Greatest Families. In no time at all, her bodyguards were all taken down.

With a sinister expression, the man from before rushed toward Crystal. He decided to have some fun with her after he dragged her behind.

Crystal was at a loss as she hadn't expected that things would turn out this way. Just as the man was about to grab her wrist, someone else reached out and held the man's wrist instead. Then, the wrist of the man was immediately dislocated with a twist. The man wailed in anguish while he held his wrist tightly.

At that, the crowd turned their attention to see who the attacker was. Following the crowd, Crystal turned her head as well, only to find a man with a cap standing beside her. She was stunned at first before she realized who the man was. Stuttering, she said, "M-Matt..."

It was Matthew who came to save her.

He smiled briefly before he shielded Crystal behind him. Although her appearance here had disrupted his original plan, he was still grateful to her as she had risked herself to come here and ask for an explanation for his sake. It must've not been easy for her to do so.

This made the people of the Ten Greatest Families and their leader, a middle-aged man, angry. With a darkened expression, their leader glared at Matthew and said, "Who are you? How dare you attack a member of the Ten Greatest Families? Are you trying to make an enemy out of us?"

The middle-aged man was a cunning one. He attempted to strike fear in Matthew by bringing up the name of the Ten Greatest Families.

The man from before continued to hold his wrist and screamed, "Buster! Please avenge me! Since that man injured me like this, it's... it's obvious he doesn't respect the Ten Greatest Families! This is no longer about him injuring me, but injuring the reputation of the Ten Greatest Families! You cannot allow this to pass!"

Those from the Ten Greatest Families started to feel as though they were enacting justice on evildoers as they glared at Matthew. In such a situation, just a word from the man called Buster was enough for these men to come together and strike at Matthew.

However, Matthew wasn't in the least bit afraid of them. Taking a glance at the middle-aged man, he said, "Are you sure that man can represent the Ten Greatest Families of Stonedale?"
