Chapter 1403
Matthew ignored Raymond who was kneeling on the ground, and walked over to help James up.
"Dad, are you alright? Did you get hurt?" he asked softly.
James was still dazed.
He never expected that his son-inw would have so much influence in Eastshire.
Although when he was in the room earlier, and the nine great families had gone in to pay their respects
separately, he didn''t know these people, much less what the nine great families meant.
To him, the Reeves Family was a big family in Eastshire who had enough power to be a part of the Ten
Greatest Families of Eastshire.
Such a big family would definitely be able to crush the Ten Greatest Families of Eastcliff.
With the Cunningham Family''s current situation, they werepletely iparable with the Reeves
Family.
Therefore, although he suffered a loss just now, he did not mention it to Matthew after entering the
room.
He didn''t n to let Matthew know in order to avoid conflict with the Reeves Family as he felt that
Matthew was too weak to go against them.
However, he never dreamed that Raymond, who hadn''t even spared him a nce, would now be
kneeling in front of Matthew and begging for mercy.
"Matthew, w-what on earth is going on?" James asked.
Helen and Sasha were also looking at Matthew with shocked expressions, Matthew didn''t reply, but the
crown prince next to him immediately cut in, "Don''t you know yet? Your son-inw is now the Lord of
Eastshire, and he''s already dealt with the Nine Greatest Families in Eastshire! From now on, everyone
in Eastshire has to pay their respects to your son-inw.’
James’ eyes widened, and his face was full of disbelief as he asked, "Is this true?"
The crown prince shrugged and pointed to the people of the Nine Greatest Families around him.

"Look, the heads of the Nine Greatest Families in Eastshire have alle to visit your son-inw one
by one.What do you think?"
James and Helen looked at each other in a daze, and Sasha was also dumbfounded.
Matthew''s ability to rise in Eastcliff had shocked them to the extreme, but at the same time, they felt
extremely excited.
Still, who would have thought that Matthew''s potential was more than that? The Cunningham Family
hadn''t risen in status in Eastcliff for long, but Matthew had already taken over the entire Eastshire!
James and Helen trembled with excitement.
If Matthew was the Lord of Eastshire, wouldn''t the Cunningham Family be even more powerful?
At that moment, they couldn''t help but feel even more fortunate that they had gotten Matthew as their
son-inw.
Perhaps this was even the best thing they had ever done in their lives! On the other hand, everyone in
the Reeves Family was trembling with fright when they heard this.
After the crown prince said those words, the nine great families did not refute them in the slightest,
which showed that what the crown prince said was true.
In other words, they had really angered the Lord of Eastshire! They were extremely regretful now.
If they had known this earlier, they wouldn''t have dared to provoke James and Cayden.
Raymond''splexion was pale, and cold sweat trickled endlessly down his forehead.
He knew that things had really gotten out of hand this time, and even if he knelt and begged for mercy,
it might not work.
Thus, he quietly gave Maddie a look, making her beg Cayden.
At this point, all the influence the Reeves Family had was useless, and their only hope was Cayden,
who was a good friend of James.
As long as he was willing to intercede, the Reeves Family still had hope.
Maddie understood what Raymond meant, but her face flushed red.
In fact, she had lost feelings for Cayden during the past few years.
Not only that, but she was constantly causing trouble for him and picking a bone with him everywhere.
She looked down on him, but now Raymond was asking her to beg Cayden.
Wasn''t that equal to making her bow down to him? She was extremely conflicted.She didn''t want to
resign herself to Cayden at all!
