Chapter 1578


    Edmund was somewhat bewildered to hear this, and he couldn''t quite understand what Matthew


    meant.


    "Oh, by the way, Nevend Pharmaceuticals'' press conference is today. Is there any way you can get


    me in?" Matthew asked.


    Nodding, Edmund replied, "A cousin of mine operates a few pharmacies around Granville, and she''s


    technically on the guest list. I gave her a call, and she told me she could get you in if you just pretend to


    be one of her employees, but that''s all she can do for now. Helping you get into the press conference is


    the limit of my capabilities; I can''t do much to help you for the time being."


    Matthew gave him a nod of thanks. He knew Edmund was in a tight spot right now, and he was already


    stretching thest of his connections just to get him into the press conference. Suddenly, he asked,


    "Can this cousin of yours be trusted?"


    "Yes," Edmund replied. "She''s probably the only person in the world I could trust right now. She''s my


    aunt''s kid on my mom''s side, and because her parents died young, my mom raised her. She grew up


    with me, and she''s more like a sister to me." This was all Matthew needed to know, and he nodded


    without asking further questions. The only thing he had his mind on was to get into the press

    conference. Nothing else mattered.


    Following this, Edmund called his cousin, Isabe, and had her make all the necessary arrangements


    to sneak Matthew into the event.


    The press conference was ted to start at 7.30PM. Matthew arrived half an hour before the event


    started and met with Isabe for the first time.


    She was a beautiful youngdy in her early twenties, and there was no mistaking that she was a hard


    worker. He could tell that being orphaned at a young age had forced her to grow up quickly.


    Presently, Isabe handed him a badge that acted as a pass for the event. However, seeing as she


    was only a small-time business owner of several pharmacies, she did not have as much standing here


    as the other pharmaceutical bigshots did. The badge she had given Matthew only allowed him to attend


    the press conference, but there would be no seats for him.


    Matthew couldn''t care less about these things, and he dismissed her apologies by taking the badge


    and thanking her pleasantly.


    She looked hesitant for a moment, then leaned forward and said in hushed tones, "Sir, I don''t know


    what your rtionship with Edmund is, but he''s in great danger right now. He pissed off Julian from the


    Huntington Family, and the other Ten Greatest Families are looking for him to settle the score. Could


    you do me a favor and persuade Edmund to leave Stonedale for his own safety?"


    Matthew eyed her steadily, and he could see how worried she was for Edmund.


    "Sure, I''ll talk to him. Don''t worry about it," he promised as he smiled and nodded.


    Evidently, Isabe thought Matthew was just a small business owner who was here to ce orders of
