Chapter 860 Matthew Must Be Eliminated
They initially thought Matthew was dead, and no one expected him to still be alive. “What are your
plans moving forward?” Crayson asked them about their plan. Since Matthew had revealed his identity,
Crayson couldn’t force him to stay in disguise.
“The hunting ceremony is around the corner. Tanya will be alerted by the revelation of your identity, and
she will increase staffing to deal with Veronica. This isn’t good.”
“I have my plans for the hunting ceremony.” Matthew had been holding onto Veronica’s hand without
letting it go. “However, I’ll need to leave with Roni right now.”
“Must you go look for Zac?” Crayson asked solemnly while puffing on his cigar.
“Yes.” Matthew’s reply was brief.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Alright. Since both of you had discussed it, go ahead.” Crayson waved at them. With that, the couple
looked at each other before turning around and leaving.
Not long after they had left, Destiny sat in front of Crayson and asked, “Sir, why didn’t you tell me when
you’d already known about his identity earlier on?” From her tone, she seemed to blame him for hiding
the information from her.
“You think that I’ve known about it from the start?” Crayson rolled his eyes at her. “Matthew isn’t as
simple as you think he is, and his disguise was so good that I couldn’t even tell. If it weren’t because I
saw him climbing from the third floor into Veronica’s room one floor down one night, I wouldn’t have
been able to guess his identity.”
“Is that so?”
“Otherwise?” Crayson lifted the cup from the table and took a sip. “We had underestimated our enemy,
especially you! You couldn’t even recognize your subordinate, but you questioned me about it?”
Hearing that, Destiny, who was clamoring earlier, softened her attitude and smiled embarrassedly,
“I’m… not that close to Iron Pillar. He normally works in the kitchen, so I rarely see him, which is why I
never noticed it.”
As she spoke, the smile on her face disappeared, and her expression turned vicious. “The fact that
Matthew could hide from Zac and the hidden clan’s trap and make his way here is just unbelievable.
Sir, I’m afraid that our plan might be disrupted because of him.”
Hearing that, Crayson held onto the ceramic cup and took the last sip before squinting his cloudy eyes.
“No one can ruin our plan since the hunting ceremony is just around the corner.”
“Sir, you mean…” Get rid of anyone who gets in the way. Destiny thought to herself. However, when
she saw Crayson tightening his grip on the teacup and crushing it, she instantly knew his intention.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“I knew he spelled trouble.” Crayson released his grip and stared at the broken pieces of ceramic
teacup while mumbling, “I won’t be at peace if I don’t get rid of him.”
“That’s right. Sir, you and the Old Master’s plan to restore the nation had been in the planning for
almost twenty years. We shouldn’t let Matthew ruin it.”
With that, Destiny stood up and announced confidently, “Sir, don’t worry, I’ll get rid of him for you!” She
then walked around the couch and left.
At the same time, Veronica and Matthew descended the mountain and drove straight to One Piece
Restaurant. Meanwhile, in One Piece Restaurant, both Shirley and Skyler were still having breakfast as
they woke up late.
Since they had officially confirmed their relationship last night, Skyler blatantly did it with Shirley again
in the morning. She was so exhausted that she went back to sleep which was why she woke up late.
“Here, you should eat more.” Skyler handed her a shrimp dumpling and said, “You’re too skinny, and it
feels bony when I hug you.”
