Chapter 1491
Adeline sneered disdainfully. "Oh, Maeve, do you really not know, or are you pretending not to? It was the Poison
Spider of Mightwater who destroyed the White Family. What does it have to do with him? He was just borrowing
the crown prince of Mightwater's power. He didn't do anything by himself."
A nervous Maeve looked around before she whispered, 'Adeline, you can say these things to me, but it stays
here. You say Mr. Larson borrowed the crown prince's power? Ha, do you know how Mr. Larson and the crown
prince met, then?"
Adeline shook her head blankly. How would she know about these things?
Maeve took a deep breath and explained in a low voice, "My uncle lives in Eastcliff, so he knows better than

of the crown prince's men. In order to take revenge, the crown prince went to Eastcliff and was prepared to kill
him. However, not only did the crown prince fail to kill Matthew, but he was also captured by him.
"Later, Poison Spider personally showed up, which was how the crown prince was saved. After this matter,
Matthew and the crown prince ended up becoming best buddies. And you mentioned Matthew borrowed the
crown prince's power? Huh, lettell you this, with Matthew's current abilities, he is completely capable of
fighting Poison Spider. If he wants to be the Lord of Eastshire, he doesn't need to rely on anyone at all!"
Adeline's eyes widened as her expression turned incredulous. All this time, she had thought that Matthew was
only the crown prince's puppet. However, after hearing what Maeve said, she suddenly realized that everything
she had known was wrong.
No wonder Aidan and Landon treated Matthew so respectfully! He was the real deal, the true Lord of Eastshire.
When she recalled her attitude toward Matthew earlier that night, she instantly panicked. Maeve whispered,
"Adeline, it's all right for you to say that to me, but don't do this in front of others. Humans are unpredictable. If
someone overhears you and informs him, there's no saying what he would do to your family. At the very least,
your family can forget about joining the Ten Greatest Families!"
Adeline was taken aback. She knew very well how much the Thatcher Family had sacrificed to join the Ten
Greatest Families. With their current state, if they becone of the Ten Greatest Families, their influence would
inevitably increase twofold. By then, the Thatcher Family would truly be able to becan important family in
Eastshire! However, if they failed because of a few words she had said, then she would becan enemy of the
Thatcher Family. At that thought, Adeline trembled uncontrollably, her face turning pale.
After seeing Adeline's expression, Maeve patted her on the shoulder comfortingly. "You don't have to be so
scared. It was only the two of us who heard that earlier, so it's fine. Let's think of a way to get in. If we can see
Mr. Larson and get a good word in, then your family will have a good chance of entering the Ten Greatest
Families."

Adeline's expression beceven more awkward. How would she still have the pride to face Matthew again?
Another girl walked over with a dazed expression at this time. "I heard that Mr. Larson is not that old, and he's
around our age. | wonder what kind of girls he likes."
The others burst into laughter at her words. "Hey, you haven't even met Mr. Larson yet, and you're already
thinking about how to seduce him?"
still, the girl was unwilling to back down and retorted with a smile, "Look at the way you've dressed up. Aren't
you thinking the sthing?"
The other girls laughed again.
Suddenly, Maeve curled her lips and advised, "I think you girls had better give up. Matthew's wife, Sasha
Cunningham, is the top beauty of Eastcliff. Girls like us stand no chance at all!"
