Chapter 1408

At this moment, Raymond began to feel a little regretful.He regretted that he didn't just kneel down with
these people.

If they had, at least their lives would be spared.He blamed himself for watching them die just for the
sake of his own pride and his resentment.

At the same time, his heart was full of despair and helplessness.

He had thought that the Reeves Family had reached its peak once, and they were very likely to
advance further and enter the ranks of the Ten Greatest Families.

However, who would have thought that in front of Matthew, the power that the Reeves Family had
prided themselves in was as good as nonexistent? Matthew could easily crush their entire family with a
single sentence, and even obliterate them.

The difference in strength was appalling! Compared with the real big shots, the Reeves Family was just
like an ant, and could be crushed to death at will.

Even after watching the Reeves Family members being thrown out of the window, Matthew remained
unfaltering, as though nothing had happened.

He looked at Raymond and said with a chuckle, "Old Master Reeves, I admire your bravery! Still, the
Reeves Family has been disrespectful to my parents, so you have to pay a price, right?"

Raymond gritted his teeth and asked, "We've all knelt down, and there are so many people in the
Reeves Family who have died.Hadn't we already paid the price? W-What else do you want?"



Matthew replied, "It's very simple.From today onward, you will hand over all the family property to your
son-in-law, Cayden.From now on, Cayden will be in charge of the Reeves Family!"

Raymond's eyes widened, and he looked at Matthew in disbelief.

"W-What are you talking about? Why should I hand over my family’s property to Cayden? They belong
to the Reeves Family!"

Matthew said, "You can choose not to hand it over.But if you do, I'll kill all the people of your family,
leaving only Cayden alone, and let him naturally inherit all the properties of the Reeves Family! Old
Master Reeves, which method do you think is more appropriate?"

Raymond's face turned pale as he gritted his teeth, unable to say a word.

Earlier, he would've thought that Matthew was only bragging.

However, this time, after several of the members of the Reeves Family were thrown out, he knew that
Matthew was truly ruthless.

If he said he wanted to kill everyone in the Reeves Family, he would definitely be able to do it! He
couldn't help but think of the Fisher Family.

He had heard before that the Fisher Family was wiped out overnight because they had offended a big
shot.

Now, he suddenly understood that they must have been exterminated because they had offended
Matthew! The Fisher Family was once one of the Ten Greatest Families of Eastshire, and their strength
was more than twice that of the Reeves Family.

If such a big family was wiped out, how would the Reeves Family end up then? Raymond's face turned
pale, and after a long time, he nodded slowly.



"Okay, I...I agree..."

Matthew laughed heartily.

"Old Master Reeves, those who submit to fate are wise! Isn't it great that you need only spend a fortune
to avoid complete annihilation? If you keep your lives, you can still have a chance to make a
comeback! But, once a person dies, there will be nothing left!"

Raymond lowered his head and couldn't say a word.His heart was still full of regret and pain.He never
dreamed that his 80th birthday today would directly lead to the decline of the Reeves Family.

If he had known that this would be the case, he would've dragged James and Helen to the main seat of
the inner hall at that time.

With James and Cayden's relationship, the Reeves Family could definitely establish a connection with
Matthew, and they would be able to climb up the social ranks.

The funny thing was that he had thought James and Helen wanted to climb the social ranks using
them.

Now, it was clear to everyone that the Reeves Family had missed a great opportunity to do exactly that!
