Chapter 1572


    Matthew raised a brow in amusement. "Why are you so surprised to see me?"


    Edmund was silent for a moment before shaking his head to say, "Actually, no. I figured it was only a


    matter of time before you came to Granville. I just didn’t think we''d meet like this."


    A little taken aback by the statement, Matthew asked, "Why did you think I''de to Granville?"


    Chuckling bitterly, Edmund exined, "The Albright Family is part of the Ten Greatest Families, which


    also makes us one of the stakeholders for Nevend Pharmaceuticals. My family was involved when


    Cunningham Pharmaceuticals'' secret form for the Restoration Pill was stolen, and seeing as


    Cunningham Pharmaceuticals depended on the Restoration Pill to thrive in the industry, it''s only natural


    that you''d show up in Granville at some point.”


    Having heard this, Matthew pointed out, "So you were kept in the loop all this while."


    Edmund shrugged. "This whole thing has been nned since two months ago, but I didn''t know you


    then. After Woodside, I made up my mind to help you, but as you know, a lot has changed in my family


    after we came back. Right now, I can''t even help myself. I—"


    He broke off as he thought about how pathetic he was, and his voice nearly cracked. He had once


    been the much-revered heir to the Albright Family, which seemed like a distant past now that he was


    disrespected and looked down on everywhere he went. He was currently devastated beyond words.


    Just then, Matthew chuckled lightly. "It''s not toote to help me now." "You want me to help you? How


    am I supposed to do that when I have nothing to offer?" Edmund asked incredulously.


    Matthew said nothing as he proceeded to fix Edmund''s arm. When that was done, he answered softly,


    "Would you like to avenge your father, Edmund?"


    Upon hearing this, Edmund clenched his fists, and an icy gleam shed in his eyes. "Of course," he


    said through gritted teeth. "I''d like that more than anything else, but what can I do? The one who got


    the ball rolling was the Damron Family in Bainbridge, and the ones who did the dirty work were none


    other than the Ten Greatest Families in Stonedale." Thinking about that, Edmund frowned. "I don''t even


    know how long it will take before someone kills me off, so what can I do to avenge my father?"


    Matthew smiled subtly. "All you need to do is have the drive for vengeance and I''ll help you out the rest

    of the way. Though, I''m going to need you to do something for me. It''s about the Restoration Pill."


    Looking motivated for once, Edmund asked, "I''m all ears, Mr. Larson."


    "In two days'' time, Nevend Pharmaceuticals will have a productunch event for the Restoration Pill.


    I want you to sneak me into the event."


    Edmund scratched the back of his head. "I don''t know... I mean, it''ll be quite the challenge, but I can


    try."


    Matthew nodded. He wanted to sneak into the event and find a way to expose Nevend


    Pharmaceuticals'' scheme.


    Following this, Matthew put Edmund up at a budget hotel. After the fiasco at the Dynasty tonight, it was


    impossible that Julian would let Edmund off the hook so easily. He would be a dead man if they were to


    find him.


    Having made sure that Edmund was safe, Matthew returned home to get some rest.


    Matthew held the pill between his thumb and index finger, then examined it carefully. As though


    amused by the sight of it, he startedughing.


    Rat blinked. "You okay, Mr. Matthew


    Larson?" Co?tent of Drаmа?ovels.cоm


    "Really?" Rat lit up at this. "Does that mean we can expose Nevend Pharmaceuticals tomorrow at


    the productunch event?"
