Chapter 1153

Despite the Obstacles

After pondering for a moment, Matthew suddenly recalled the video on his cell phone. I received the
video when Ed was kidnapped, so could there be a connection between the two? Immediately, he sent
the video to Tiger, asking the latter to look into it.

Shortly after he sent the video to Tiger, Tiger told him that the group of young men in the video were all
the lackeys of the crown prince of Mightwater!

Only then did Matthew finally figure out what had happened. Undoubtedly, there had to be an old score
between Ed and the crown prince of Mightwater, which was why Ed had been badly beaten up. Ed
escaped death by jumping into the river at the time, but he dared not talk about what he had gone
through in Mightwater after returning to Eastcliff. However, the behind-the-scenes manipulator found out
about Ed, so they took advantage of this matter, wanting to use the crown prince of Mightwater by setting
him against Matthew.

Matthew clenched his fists. What a sinister wirepuller! However, he had no other choice at the moment.
Now that Ed had been abducted, he had to save him no matter what. He ordered in a grave voice,
“Tiger, have your people continue to track them down and find out Ed’s location. I’ll be going to
Mightwater right away!”

Tiger was worried, though. “Matthew, y-you have to think this over. This time, the crown prince of
Mightwater’s lackeys abducted Ed outside of Eastcliff. I’m afraid that not even Master Newman could
come up with a valid reason to say anything about this. If you go to Mightwater, you’ll be breaking Poison
Spider’s rules. This is—”

However, Matthew replied right away, “Ed’s my sworn brother; I can’t just sit by and watch him die!
However dangerous it’ll be, I’ve got to go there!”



After putting down the phone, Matthew took out the bottle of energy pills and walked out of the basement
right away. As he went upstairs and took a look at Sasha and Natalie, who were soundly asleep, he
looked somewhat reluctant to part with them. In the end, however, he resolutely left.

As soon as he reached the airport, he got a phone call from Wilson. “Mr. Larson, I heard that you’re
going to Mightwater? I’m afraid this is not so appropriate. The crown prince of Mightwater is no ordinary
guy!”

Matthew replied, “Master Lach, our relationship is purely collaborative. If I don’t manage to come back
this time, your family will still be one of the Ten Greatest Families.”



Wilson hesitated for a moment before advising in a low voice, “That’s not what I meant, Mr. Larson. I just
want you to think twice about it. It’s inevitable for someone who would achieve great success to sacrifice
some things. If you act so impulsive—”

Matthew interrupted him right away, saying, “It’s my sworn brother that we’re talking about. If he dies,
however great my achievements will be, it’ll be totally meaningless!” With that, he hung up right away.

Right after that, though, Felix, Connor, and even Philip called him, advising him not to go to Mightwater.

However, Matthew’s answer remained the same. However dangerous it’ll be, I’ve got to save my sworn
brother no matter what! he thought. In the end, he got on the flight to Mightwater.

Meanwhile, Connor, Felix, Wilson, and Philip were now on the top floor of Wilson’s hotel at Eastcliff.
Even Leanna was sitting here, too.

The four men sighed repeatedly, perplexed by what Matthew was doing. In their opinion, it was totally
foolish of Matthew to be doing so.



Only Leanna, her eyes gleaming, commented softly with a sigh, “He’s determined to save his buddy
despite the obstacles. Talk about a real hero!”

Connor heaved a sigh, though. “Ever since ancient times, ‘hero’ has always been a title that brings no
real power. Instead, only bold and ambitious people have been able to achieve great deeds. Sigh, Mr.
Larson has let his feelings cloud his judgment. If he could give up these feelings, there would’ve been no
limit to his achievements!”

Leanna cast a sidelong glance at him. “I don’t think so, though. If a person is devoid of feelings, what’s
the point of them achieving great success, however great their achievements are?”
