Chapter 1149
Chapter 1149 Brittany’s Background
That night, in the manor on the outskirts of Eastcliff where Lord Voodoo resided, a masked man knelt
on the ground while reporting to Lord Voodoo what had happened that day.
Lord Voodoo looked expressionless, but the anger in his eyes was apparent. “You bunch of morons!
How dare you guys think about establishing an empire with hegemony when you couldn’t even deal
with a small fry? You’re simply being delusional!” he barked in a cold voice.
The masked man prostrated himself on the ground. “We really underestimated Matthew this time, my
Lord. Really, we never expected that even Somy Fall, the Grim Reaper, would be no match for him!”
Lord Voodoo replied coldly, “I’ve fought Matthew before. With his fighting prowess, he’s absolutely the
best fighter of the younger generation. Few in Eastshire would be able to kill him!”
The masked man fell silent for a moment. Then, he uttered between clenched teeth, “If nobody in
Eastshire can kill him, I’ll get somebody from some other ce to kill him!”
Lord Voodoo was surprised. “Do you guys have any other candidates?”
The masked man smiled before replying under his breath, “There’s one person in Mightwater who’d
definitely be able to kill him!”
Lord Voodoo’s eyes flickered. After staring at the masked man for a while, he asked in a whisper, “Can
you guarantee that nothing will go wrong with this? If anything wrong happens, both of us will be in
huge trouble!”
The masked man chuckled. “Don’t worry. We’ve already got everything nned out. However, the key
problem at present is that Billy is still in Eastcliff, so I’m afraid we can’t execute our n for the time
being.”
Lord Voodoo nodded. “Okay. In that case, I’ll go along with your n. I’ll have Billy leave Eastcliff
tonight!”
Upon hearing Lord Voodoo’s words, the masked man was delighted. “As long as Billy isn’t in Eastcliff,
there’ll be absolutely no problem with our n! By the way, my Lord, what about we take this
opportunity to threaten Billy by abducting Brittany—”
Lord Voodoo mmed his hand on the table right away. “Absolutely not! Don’t you dare even think
about this!”
The masked man was involuntarily startled. Lord Voodoo’s reaction is far more emphatic than I’ve
imagined, he thought. “W-Why would you say so, my Lord? Billy is powerful, to be sure, but Brittany is
his weakness. Once we have her in our hands, Billy will have to obey us—” he argued in a low voice.
Staring at the masked man, Lord Voodoo replied, stressing each word, “If you have a death wish, that’s
your own business, but don’t drag me to hell with you!”
The masked man’s eyes widened. What does Lord Voodoo mean by saying that? Could it be that he’s
afraid of Billy?
Seeing the doubts in the masked man’s mind, Lord Voodoo exined in a grave voice, “Hmph, you
know nothing about Billy! Do you think Billy is Brittany’s only backer? Let me tell you that Brittany’s
maternal uncle is Gilbert Nn, the current King of Stagfort! Not only that, but her youngest aunt is
Gianna Nn, the princess of Bainbridge, and her maternal grandfather is the current head of the
Nn Family of Bainbridge! Brittany has the Nn Family’s blood running in her. The Nn Family
totally deserves its reputation as the No. 1 family of Cathay. If youy a finger on her, you’ll definitely
The masked man let out a gasp. “I-Is that true? You mean Billy’s wife is a member of the Nn Family?
But why would Billy g-get into such a state?”
Lord Voodoo warned coldly, “Don’t ask anything about things that you’re not supposed to know. This
matter has something to do with the Nn Family’s secrets, so don’t go around spreading word about
it. All you need to do is listen carefully—do noty a finger on Brittany! Otherwise, I’ll kill you myself to
apologize to the Nn Family! Hmph!”
The masked man fell on his knees in panic. “My Lord, I’d never dare to do that! I only dared to have
such a bold idea because I didn’t know anything about Brittany’s background earlier! I’d never entertain

such an idea anymore!”
