Chapter 1258

Edmund's already green face turned even greener as he turned to look at Matthew.It wasn't degrading
to apologize to the crown prince.

After all, everyone in Stonedale knew that the crown prince was not to be messed with.

The problem was, if he were to apologize to Matthew, he would be too embarrassed to face anyone.

If word got out that he had apologized to a live-in son-in-law, how was he supposed to show his face in
public in the future? Seeing that Edmund remained silent, the crown prince was peeved at once.

"Hey, f*cker! Didn't you hear me? Are you gonna apologize or die?"

Edmund's face crimsoned; he was really on the verge of a breakdown.

Just then, Matthew suddenly cut in, saying, "Prince, what happened between Edmund and me is just a
little misunderstanding, actually.He didn't know me in person and was put up to this by Noah, so he
wasn't to blame for this.How about you do me a favor and let this slide?"

The crown prince shot a glance at Matthew.

"Okay, since it's your own business, let's do as you say.Hey, Edmund, what are you waiting for? Now
that you don't have to apologize anymore, hurry up and thank my buddy for that!"

Heaving a long sigh of relief, Edmund immediately folded his hands and thanked Matthew, saying,
"Thank you so much, Mr.Larson!"

He said so from the bottom of his heart, for Matthew had saved his dignity this time.



Not only did Edmund look at Matthew with greater affability, but he even began to treat the latter as his
friend.

The next instant, though, he turned to look at Noah with resentment in his eyes.

Just as Matthew had said, he and Matthew didn't know each other in person, and he had only clashed
with the latter previously because of Noah's instigation.

How could he not be angry after Noah nearly made him lose face? Just then, the crown prince darted a
look at Noah.

"Noah, huh? My buddy said it was because of you that this happened.If you want to stay alive, then
kneel down and kowtow to my buddy thrice, and I'll let this slide.Otherwise, I'm gonna kill you for a
warm-up!"

Noah clenched his jaw, yelling, "Prince, this matter is between Matthew and me.What does it have to
do with you? I know you're always domineering, but we people from Eastshire aren't afraid of you!"

Upon hearing his words, Edmund merely let out a sneer.

Those dandies from the Ten Greatest Families of Eastshire have never gotten a taste of how terrifying
the crown prince is.

How dare Noah yell at him? He's totally courting death! As he had expected, the crown prince instantly
charged at Noah to give him a slap across the face.

Noah tried to dodge him, but the crown prince grabbed him by the hair and slapped him so hard that
blood trickled out of the corner of his mouth.

At the sight of the scene, the Hughes Family's men behind Noah immediately charged toward the
crown prince, upon which the crown prince's men rushed forward and came to blows with them at



once.

However, the crown prince ignored the battle between both sides.

With several whacks in a row, he knocked Noah to the ground.

Noah had some fighting skills, but his skills were nothing compared to the crown prince's.

Before long, he was already at his last gasp.

At the sight of the scene, those from the Ten Greatest Families of Eastshire were taken aback.

One of these people—an elder—yelled, "How dare you kill one of us Hugheses, Prince? I'm gonna fight
you to the death!"

The crown prince let out a laugh.

"I heard you! The Hugheses, huh? Well, I'm telling you, if your family remains among the Ten Greatest
Families of Eastshire, I'll eat my hat!"

With that, he picked up a dagger and thrust it directly into Noah's throat.

Seeing Noah lying in a pool of blood, the Hugheses instantly turned pale with shock.

None of them expected that the crown prince would be so audacious as to kill the Hughes Family's heir
right under their very nose! Not only that, but this wasn't the end of the story yet.

Having finished Noah off, the crown prince took out his cell phone right away.

"Mom, the Hugheses from Eastshire said they're gonna fight me to the death, saying something like the
Ten Greatest Families of Eastshire will back them up.Why don't you help me ask them when they're



gonna strike?"
