Chapter 1484
At seven o''clock in the evening, as soon as Matthew walked into Cameron Hotel, he saw Joel Ramsey
standing in the lobby from a distance, who was apanied by a group of people led by an old man in
his eighties.
The old man looked energetic, and his hair wasbed back meticulously, while the others were all
dressed in formal clothes that looked expensive at a nce. It was clear that this group of people were
not just anyone. They came from a powerful family in Eastshire, also known as the Thatcher Family.
The Thatcher Family was quite influential in Eastshire, and their power could definitely rank in the top
ten of Eastshire. However, they had a grudge with the White Family before, which caused them to be
pushed aside. Hence, they had never been able to enter the ranks of the Ten Greatest Families of
Eastshire.
Now that the White Family had been destroyed and Matthew wanted toplete the ten families, the
Thatcher Family immediately saw a glimmer of hope, and instantly wanted to speak to Matthew about
this matter. However, there were not many people in Eastshire who were actually close with Matthew.
Of course, the other seven families knew him, but during this time, many people were moring to
speak to those families, so the Thatcher Family knew that it wouldn''t do much if they tried to contact
Matthew through this method.
Hence, they decided on a different route and went to Joel instead. They received some information that
Joel was familiar with Matthew, and the pharmacies and staff amodation under Matthew''s
parents-inw were all provided by him. Therefore, they went to him and asked for his help in securing
a connection for them.
Although Joel had strong assets, at the end of the day, he was just a mere businessman, and his
influence was not evenparable to Tommy, let alone a powerful figure like the Thatcher Family. If
this were any other day, they would not even spare him a second nce, but now the head of the
Thatcher Family had personallye to him, which greatly boosted his ego.
Joel himself was also very excited, but he knew his ce, and that Matthew might not entertain him
even if he personally came forward to invite him out. Hence, he cleverly decided to take a detour. He
spent more than three million on a jade ornament, then made a special trip to Eastcliff and gifted it to
James and Helen, saying that it would give them more luck. Not only that, but he had also brought
Lynn along just for this trip.
When James and Helen saw the jade ornament, they smiled from ear to ear. Moreover, Helen was
especially attached to Lynn, who came from the same hometown as her, so her presence made her
even happier. Joel took this opportunity to exin his situation in hopes of letting James and Helen put
in a good word for him and ask Matthew out for a meal. Naturally, they agreed and immediately called
Matthew to talk to him about this matter.
When Matthew heard about this, he couldn''t help chuckling. Joel Ramsey, what a through and through
businessman. However, he did not refuse the invitation. No matter what, his parents-inw had asked

him for a favor, so he had to follow their wishes. Moreover, the Thatcher Family was indeed one of the
families he had to look into. They had a good amount of influence, and the old master and the head of
the family were fairly decent people, so he did have the intention of letting them join the Ten Greatest
Families. Hence, he agreed to the dinner.
The main members of the Thatcher Family were now standing in the hall and waiting respectfully with
uneasy expressions. The dinner tonight was extremely important for them.
Upon seeing the expressions of everyone next to him, Joel secretly felt pleased, knowing that after this
incident, his status in Eastshire would rise significantly.
As Joel spoke, his eyes were trained on the hotel entrance. Just then, he saw Matthew walking in.
