Horror appeared on Tommy's face as he looked at Matthew in disbelief.
"Mr.Larson, W-What are you talking about? Keep an eye on the Ten Greatest Families? But why? D-Don't they
treat you with respect?" Tommy inquired.
Matthew shook his head in denial.
"It's all just a show. They aren't genuine at all. They're insidious underneath those deceptive facades. Only God
knows how many times they have gone againstbehind the scenes! That's why | need someone in Eastshire
to watch them. And you are the best candidate."
He had fully comprehended what Matthew meant by that.As Tommy stared at Matthew, he began to weigh the
pros and cons in his head.
Noticing that, Matthew demanded, "I know what you're hesitating about; there's no room for you to voice your

Aglint of resentment flashed across Tommy's eyes. He was clearly aware that Matthew was planning to impose
the order on him.
After drawing in a deep breath, he decided to agree to it first before snitching on Matthew to the Ten Greatest
Families.
However, Matthew suddenly snapped his fingers before Tommy could say anything. Then, he felt his heart being
prodded by something sharp without a warning.
Within that fleeting second, Tommy's legs went weak as he stumbled onto the ground. He thought he was on the

will devour your heart and you'll die in agony."
The terrifying truth scared the living daylights out of Tommy.
News of Lord Voodooc's arrival in the Suburb of Eastcliff had circulated around Eastshire, so he knew about it.
Nevertheless, Tommy had never imagined in his wildest dreams that he would be cursed by someone.
Kneeling before Matthew, he implored, as his voice quivered in fear, "Mr.Larson, save me, please. Please...I...|

Matthew interrupted, "Just do as | say if you want to live. Tommy Marshall, you're a smart guy. You know what
you should do, right?"
Tommy's countenance was ghastly pale as he finally realized the reason why Matthew could take control of him.
He had no choice now! Since things had reached a stalemate for him, he lowered his head before nodding

Matthew smiled lightly.
"Remember-keep this between the two of us or you'll die. The curse has formed a correlation with your heart, so |
advise you to not provoke it unless you have a death wish."
The man's 'advice' had obliterated Tommy's last strand of hope.
With that kind of curse on him, he had to stay loyal to Matthew for perpetuity! After assigning tasks to Tommy,
Matthew went upstairs to take srest. He didn't want to look for the crown prince yet, for his reluctance to
watch the tragedy befall the two ladies.
Tommy prepared a place for him.So, he went to the room where the lights were on.
As he was striding toward the bed, the bathroom door suddenly opened and Lucy cout with a towel wrapped
