Chapter 1056 You Owe Me an Explanation
Felix’s words immediately garnered the favor of many people in the Lewis Family. Old Master Lewis, after all, was highly respected, and although the Lewis Family was going through a lot, they still greatly cared about him.
However, Franklin waved his dagger and threatened, “What do you mean by stopping the blood? Don’t try to get close to me. If anyone dares to come over, I’ll kill you!”
Felix replied in a low voice, “We won’t approach you, but we’ll throw some gauze over so that you can bandage his wound. Franklin, he’s your father! Do you have the heart to watch him keep bleeding out like this?”
Franklin looked at his old man, and in the end, he gave in. “Okay, you guys can throw the gauze over. But listen closely! If anyone, even a single person, comes near, I’ll send him away!” he roared.
Hearing that, Felix quickly waved his hand and summoned someone to bring some gauze over. Standing roughly twenty feet away from Franklin, he tossed the gauze according to Franklin’s instructions.
Right as Franklin stretched out his hand to pick it up, Matthew flicked his finger, causing a small stone to fly out and hit Old Master Lewis’ bent leg. The old man let out a low cry as his body keeled over involuntarily. In an instant, Franklin’s face dropped, and he hurriedly scrambled to catch the falling man.
Meanwhile, Felix had been waiting for this opportunity. Without wasting a second, he rushed over and grabbed the dagger, turning his hand into a bloody mess, but he refused to let go. Instead, he desperately clung to Franklin, making him unable to kill Old Master Lewis.
Around them, everyone else was shell-shocked by the sudden escalation of events. Seeing that, Billy slammed on the table and yelled, “Ken, go and help! What kind of sh*tty Ten Greatest Families are you? Why are you just standing around and watching the show?”
His words made the members of the Ten Greatest Families come to their senses. However, Ken had already rushed over with someone and subdued Franklin. Old Master Lewis clambered back in panic, his body trembling all over with fear, as if he had just crawled back from hell.
Meanwhile, Ken held Franklin down and broke both of his legs, completely incapacitating him so that he could only lie on the ground and howl in agony.
Felix got up. Four of his fingers were almost cut off as blood gushed out of his wounds profusely. At that moment, the admiration in the eyes of everyone in the Lewis Family grew when they looked at him.
It was only then that the rest of the Ten Greatest Families rushed forward. Robert kicked Franklin a few times as he spewed curses to vent his anger. After the chaos continued a while, things finally calmed down.
Once Old Master Lewis’ wound was bandaged, he sat down again, looking as if he had aged a few decades. “I’m really sorry that such an embarrassing thing happened today. Since it was proved that Donovan was not killed by Matthew, this is the end of today’s public trial. Once I finish handling the family affairs, I’ll personally apologize to everyone!” He couldn’t help but let out a low sigh.
Hearing that, the members of the Ten Greatest Families expressed their understanding and prepared to get up and leave.
At that moment, Matthew suddenly stood up and interrupted, “Wait a minute. Everyone, is it going to end just like this? Don’t you owe me an explanation?”
The Ten Greatest Families exchanged glances as Robert demanded, “We’ve already proved that you are innocent. What else do you want us to say?”
Matthew sneered, “Did you prove it? No, I proved it myself! I didn’t kill anyone. You called me here for no reason and even wanted to break my leg. Don’t you need to give me an explanation for this ordeal?”
Reaching his limit, Aaron burst out, “Matthew, know your place! Yes, you didn’t kill my dad. But, in the end, you were the one who injured him. How will you pay for this? Also, Dickson fell to his death after he was pushed downstairs by your men. Can you deny everything I said? If you really want to clear your name, what will you do about this?”
Aaron’s words had helped Robert find an excuse.
“Yes, Matthew, how do you plan on settling this?” Robert sneered.
