Chapter 265
What Matthew said made Samuel froze before sneering, “The Jacksons? Hmph, do you think they
have the guts to do anything to me? They finished watching the video last night, but what happened
next? They still allowed me to leave in the end! Matthew, you really think you can make use of the
Jacksons to kill me? Dream on!”
Looking indifferent, Matthew explained, “The Jacksons might have let you go, but it doesn’t mean
Zachary’s parents won’t do anything to you. Samuel, didn’t you notice his parents’ expressions just This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.
now? At first, they looked like they couldn’t wait to kill me, but when you were later proven to be the
murderer, they started to fix their gaze on you. Per my calculations, they should be here any minute
now. When they kill you later, the Hughes won’t be able to link your death to me, no matter what
happens.”
Matthew reached out to poke Samuel’s neck.
“I’ve got to go. Enjoy now!”
Matthew walked away laughing, leaving behind a horrified looking Samuel. He suddenly realized that
he could not make a single sound.
About half an hour later, a car suddenly appeared.
“There! That’s their car!” a shrill voice shouted.
The car immediately drove in their direction. The two people who got out of the car were none other
than Zachary’s parents.
With their eyes brimming with bitter resentment, they gritted their teeth as they glared at Samuel who
was lying on the ground.
A terror-stricken Samuel was eager to spill the beans and tell them it was all part of Matthew’s plan.
However, he couldn’t utter a single word.
“Why are they all lying here? Why can’t they move?” Zachary’s father asked curiously.
As for Zachary’s mother, she snapped with hatred in her eyes. “How is that relevant? He murdered my
son! I will kill him to avenge my son’s death!”
Meanwhile, Zachary’s father looked worried. “I just worry that someone might be trying to make use of
us to kill him.”
Samuel sighed in relief, glad that Zachary’s father was not dumb.
As for Zachary’s mother, she muttered through gritted teeth, “I’m fine with being used as long as I can
avenge my son’s death! Have you not given up on that family of yours already? Not only did they take
away our son’s right to be the successor to the family business, they also decided to give up avenging
his death just because they were offered some benefit in return. Can they still be considered as our
family? Do you still want to do things for their good? Our son would be so disappointed in you!”
His expression turning icy, Zachary’s father fished out a dagger and said through gritted teeth, “You’re
right! Since they treated us that way, they shouldn’t blame us for betraying them! Forgive me, Father,
I’m not trying to bring trouble upon our family; I’m just forced to do this because of your cruel actions!”
With that, he stabbed the dagger into Samuel’s chest.
Samuel couldn’t even let out a shriek, but it didn’t change the fact that the pain was unbearable.
Before long, they managed to kill Samuel between the two of them.
Glancing at the men beside them, Zachary’s father frowned as he asked, “What do we do with them?”
Zachary’s mother snarled, “Since they are together with Samuel Hughes, they were all his accomplices
who murdered my son! We shouldn’t spare any of them!”
Zachary’s father nodded his head in agreement. By then, it made no difference between killing only one
or all of them.
Soon, they finished off all of Samuel’s underlings.
After getting their revenge, they left immediately. Instead of heading back to Eastcliff, they drove in the
opposite direction.
They knew very well that their family would not forgive them for killing Samuel and his men. Therefore,
there was no way they could stay in Eastcliff.
This was part of Matthew’s plan too.
After Zachary’s parents killed Samuel and his men, they would have to run away from here without
leaving any trace.
The poison in Samuel and his men would soon dissipate.
By the time the Hughes started investigating Samuel's death, they would only trace it to Zachary’s
parents, instead of himself.
With that, Matthew could wash his hands off the issue, and it was no longer related to him in any way.
However, he could already foresee a looming battle between the Hughes and the Jacksons in the
future.
