Son-in-Law Is a Medical Genius

Chapter 1287

Though the situation had gone awry, there was not the slightest panic on Matthew's face.He flashed an indifferent smile and started whistling faintly.

Just then, as though zapped by something, Robert and the other family heads felt pain in their chest.

All six of them instinctively clenched their chest.

Their faces were distorted from the pain as Matthew gave another whistle.

Robert's face went pale from the pain.

"Larson...what have you done to us?"

Smiling, Matthew answered, "It seems I've forgotten to inform you all that I've already inflicted you all with a slow-acting poison the last time we were in Lakeside Garden.I would have spared you all as long as you stayed your hand.Yet, all of you have come after me time after time, leaving me no other choice but to settle this once and for all!"

Listening to Matthew, Robert and the others lost the colors in their faces.

Johnny raged in anger.

"Matthew Larson, you...are despicable."

Matthew gave a chilling smile in response.

"Are you all not the despicable ones with the ambush you've set for me?"

Johnny was unable to retort.

The pain in their chest gradually became so severe that even Robert was becoming weak in his knees.

In the end, one of the family heads caved.

Trembling, he reached his hands out and begged, "Mr.Larson, I...I was wrong.Please spare me; I won't stand in your way ever again! From this moment on, I...I will leave Eastshire—no—I shall leave Cathay and will never appear before you ever again...I plead with you to be the bigger person and spare my life."

Another two family heads followed suit and begged for their lives as well.

Matthew shook his head.

"I'm afraid it's too late for forgiveness at this point."

The three, who were begging Matthew, were on the verge of tears after the denial.

They kneeled and continued begging, yet Matthew paid no heed to them.

Robert gritted his teeth and bellowed, "What are the three of you doing? Do you think that this monster would let us go after all we've done? Larson! If we are to die anyway, then we will drag you along with us! What are you lot standing around for? Hurry up and kill him!"

The surrounding hundreds of their people started to move.

Matthew shouted abruptly, "Stand where you are! Even if you kill me, do you think any of you will be able to outrun the people of Eastcliff? A word of advice: run, as fast as you can.

What is happening here is of no concern to you all! Otherwise, only death awaits those that stay.

The six of them are already knocking on death's door; do you think it's still worth it for any of you to give your lives up for them?"

Matthew's words caused the surrounding people to look at each other and made them hesitant.

As Robert comprehended what was happening, he couldn't help but bellow his orders to attack Matthew.

Yet no one made a move.

On the contrary, some of them started to retreat. RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

Gradually, more of them left the area as well, until the hundreds that were surrounding Matthew were all but gone.

Those that remained were the confidants of the family heads.

However, even the confidants were trembling like leaves, unable to make a move on Matthew.

Robert and the other family heads despaired as they looked at their current situation.

Matthew walked over to the six family heads and said in a low volume, "I've given you an offer to leave Eastcliff and to let bygones be bygones.Unfortunately, not only did you all choose not to do so, but you've gone as far as to enact your revenge on me! Since it has now come to this, then let us put an end to this grudge between us for good!"

Immediately, one of the family heads spat blood and fell to the ground, his motionless body no longer breathing.

The faces of the remaining five became as white as a sheet.

Robert gritted his teeth and lashed out in rage, "Matthew Larson, I've gravely underestimated you! If I had known this would happen, I would've killed you when you were still weak and powerless regardless of the consequences!"

Matthew smiled faintly.

"I'm afraid it's too late for such a realization now!"

Robert continued in anger, "You're right.It is too late now! However, even if I should bite the dust, don't think you'll get away scot-free! Hmph! You better return to your wife and sister.Even in death, I'll make sure the two of them shall suffer!"
