Chapter 398
Travis finally started to panic. Kneeling on the ground, he said in a trembling voice, “Master Newman, I-
I’ve made a grave mistake. Please forgive me this once; just this once! You can treat me like a dog, but
let me go. I-I will never dare to step into Eastcliff ever again! Master Newman, it’s not worth it to
be enemies with the Hughes family on my ount…”
Billy replied with a cold expression, “If I don’t kill you today, don’t you think that others would dare to
cause me trouble in future as well? Travis, you’ve sentenced yourself to death from the moment you
captured Crystal!”
Upon saying that, Billy waved his hand and a few men instantly dragged Travis away. He screamed
and pleaded for mercy but nobody paid any attention to him. Seeing this, Travis’ subordinates shivered
in fear, their faces pale. Nobody dared to say a single word the whole time.
Billy nced at them and said, “Break their arms and legs, then throw them out of Eastcliff! Go back
and tell the Hughes family that from now on, no one is allowed to step foot in Eastcliff. Otherwise, I’ll
pay a visit to the Hughes family residence myself!” With that, Billy spun and left. Travis’s subordinates
immediately wailed and begged for mercy, but everyone ignored them.
It waster that the arms and legs of these men were broken, rendering them handicapped. After
everything was said and done, Billy’s men left. Meanwhile, Annie and the others were still curled up in

the corner inside the factory but no one paid any attention to them.
Annie and the rest were trembling with fright. After all, they had witnessed Travis’ death with their own
eyes and saw those men from the Hughes family be handicapped. They finally came to their
senses on how ridiculous their once arrogant and domineering actions were in front of big shots.
Meanwhile, Matthew was standing outside the factory. He wasn’t there when Billy killed Travis earlier.
This was something that Billy had made sure of. His thoughts were simple: since he killed Travis, this
would be between him and the Hughes family. Matthew wasn’t there so he had nothing to do with this.
Even if the Hughes family wanted to seek revenge, they would look for Billy instead of Matthew. In
short, Billy was protecting Matthew so that the Hughes family wouldn’t confront Matthew.
Billy asked Matthew to get in the car and he passed a box to Matthew. “Mr. Larson, this is the
Thousand-Year Snow Lotus that you asked for. I also have the Fruit of Mand with me. When can
you save my daughter?”
Matthew immediately opened the box and saw the Thousand-Year Snow Lotus nestled within. Almost
instantly, a refreshing lotus aroma filled the car, and Matthew was overjoyed. After all, the medical
properties of the Thousand-Year Snow Lotus were strong enough to cure his sister’s illness.
“Mr. Newman, follow the instructions I gave you and leave the fruit of Mand for three days. Three
days from now, I’ll personally go and treat Miss Newman!” Matthew replied.
Billy was ecstatic to hear this. “Thank you, Mr. Larson!”
Matthew didn’t go home even after he received the Thousand-Year Snow Lotus. Truth be told, even
Sasha went to stay in the office, for she couldn’t stand the pressure from her parents. Up until the
minute that Matthew left, James and Helen kept hounding Matthew to ask Stanley for money. After the
whole fiasco, Matthew returned to Lakeside Garden alone. As soon as he arrived at the gates, he saw
Joseph and Crystal standing at the entrance. Joseph looked exhausted while Crystal’s eyes were red
and swollen.
As soon as Joseph saw Matthew, he let out a sigh of relief and rushed over to greet him. “Mr. Larson,
you’re back! You’re okay. That’s great!”
Earlier, as soon as Joseph and Crystal left the factory, they were sent away by Billy’s men, which was
why Joseph didn’t know what happened afterward.
