NovelEnglishChapter 1747
Julian's expression changed drastically as he did not expect it to turn out that way. He thought it was Adeline
who set up the trap, but what he did not realize was that even Adeline was in the dark this time. As for Adeline,
her expression looked even more ghastly. She finally understood why she was able to find out Tiger's location
from her father. It turned out that Matthew had been setting up a trap for her since the very beginning.
And she was being complacent, thinking that she had finally contributed and could save her family this time.
However, contrary to her wishful thinking, she was the one trapped by Matthew's plan.
She looked at Aidan with a pale face, but Aidan was indifferent. His eyes were full of despair, and he was
obviously disappointed with his daughter's actions.
Since the start of this incident, the Thatcher Family had expressed their unequivocal support for Matthew.
Because Adeline had lost once to Matthew before, she had since been holding a grudge against him. She tried

to defeat Matthew, but the idea was shot down by her father every time.
Adeline then hooked up with Julian just to prove to her family that her decision was right, but only now did she
realize that she was wrong from the beginning. The decision of father and grandfather was correct not hers!
She hung her head low as she knew that she was done for this time. It was hard to say whether she would live
through this after doing such a thing!
Julian gritted his teeth angrily. "Matthew, so what if | fall into your hands? Letwarn you about something. The
Huntingtons will make you pay back a hundredfold if | lose a strand of my hair! Surely, you wouldn't want your
relatives and friends to die tragically because of you now, would you? Better you just letgo—"
Before he could finish speaking, Matthew already walked toward him, grabbed his hair, and tore off a handful of
it. Julian's scalp was almost torn off, and blood could be seen trickling down from his head.
The pain was so intense that Julian couldn't help but point at Matthew as he yelled in rage, "Matthew! H-How
dare you!"
Matthew merely blew the tuft of hair in his hand and scoffed. "Now, how many strands of hair do | have to pay
you back?"
The people surrounding them burst into laughter upon hearing that, and expectedly, Julian felt so humiliated that
he trembled in fury. "Matthew, mark my words. I'll never forgive you!"
Matthew sneered at his empty threat. "That's funny. Do you think I'll forgive you? Julian, | told you before very
clearly not to provoke me, but it seems that you didn't take my words to heart at all. Since that's the case, I'll
have no choice but to make you remember!"
He then gestured at Tiger. "Teach him a lesson!"
Tiger could not stop the wicked grin from forming on his face when he heard that. "On it."

Julian and the others wanted to resist, but Matthew's lackeys were all experts. It did not take long before Julian
and the others were all pressed to the ground after smelee.
Tiger picked up a dagger from the ground and slid it across the surface of Julian's face provokingly and
continuously, causing him to tremble with fright. "W-What are you trying to do? I'd rather die than go through
this humiliation. I-If you have the guts, just killalready!"
Matthew nodded upon hearing Julian's declaration. "Okay, kill him, Tiger."
Tiger did not waste another minute to raise the dagger in his hand and aimed it at Julian's eye socket. Julian
screamed in horror as he saw the dagger getting closer. He shut his eyes and did not dare to look anymore.
However, he did not feel any pain even after a while. All he felt was that the dagger passed over his scalp and
lunged into the ground.
Though he did not die, Julian was so terrified that he was breaking out in cold sweats, and shfilled him as he
thought back to his cowardly scream just now. Tiger raised the dagger again and said condescendingly with a
smile, "Ah, my hand slipped. My bad, but it's okay. I'll make sure | won't miss it this time!"
