Chapter 1470 Secret Gathering
- Upon listening to Melvin's words, Matthew decided not to go to the Ten Greatest Families of Eastshire for the time being. After that, he sent Sasha and her parents back to Eastcliff. Now that Eastcliff was already under his complete control, his family would only be safe by staying there.
- As for Matthew, he continued to stay in Eastshire on the excuse that he wanted to help James and Helen deal with the matters about those chain pharmacies. In reality, though, Matthew was staying here to continue exerting pressure on the nine greatest families. He wanted to gain complete control of Eastshire by combining threats and rewards as Melvin had suggested.
- Meanwhile, the nine families were on full alert. Just as Matthew had surmised, they were indeed the ones playing tricks behind the previous incident. Wanting to use the Cosbys to deal with Matthew, they had paid the tattooed man from the Cosby Family handsomely to bribe him into laying the trap. However, they never dreamed that Matthew would defeat the son of the Cosby Family. Most importantly, the son of the Cosby Family didn't get angry with Matthew, nor did he use his family's power to have Matthew killed. In other words, their plan had failed.
