Chapter 1804
Matthew took a deep breath. Levi sure isn't the King of the South for nothing. Look at him! He found the crux of
the matter at one glance. To put it bluntly, the Damrons were latching onto Matthew because of the benefits he
could provide!
After a moment of silence, Matthew mumbled, "This is what they call a man's ability and ambition can be the
death of him, isn't it?"
To that, Levi smiled. "When what you can provide outweighs your ability, you'll find yourself in such
circumstances easily. We live in a world governed by the laws of the jungle. The strong will always keep their
eyes on whatever others have. Many would be willing to take the risk if the benefits provided are tempting
enough."
Matthew couldn't help smiling wryly at that. "If things are as you say, Master Levi, then I'm inevitably doomed
this time, aren't I?"
Levi put his glass down with a faint smile and suddenly diverted the topic. "By the way, | visited Brittany before
coming over. She seemed to have found out what had happened to Billy and had been feeling down in the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtdumps lately. Nothing interests her except for when | mention you. Her eyes would only light up a little at that
time."
Matthew was baffled, unsure what Levi was trying by bringing this up out of the blue.
"Brittany's like a sister to me," Matthew mumbled. "I would visit her every now and then as well. Then again,
anyone would inevitably feel sad when they're met with such news."
At that, Levi looked into the distance. "Billy and | go way back, and | watched Brittany grow up myself. | don't
have any children to call my own, but | adore the young lady. So much so that | even asked Billy if he could let
Matthew decided not to say anything at all at this point, for he seriously had no clue where Levi was taking this
conversation.
Levi, on the other hand, turned to Matthew suddenly. "Matthew, do you know why | never expressed anything
regarding the Damrons' issue?"
"Please, do tell." Matthew bowed slightly.
"Billy toldto look after you before he left," Levi explained. "Actually, | do look after you over many things."
Matthew nodded in agreement. Well, he's not wrong.
For instance, Phoenix personally dealt with the Neverland Pharmaceuticals incident. Though he said he was there
to deal with Raven, the man had also indeed done Matthew a major favor.
If Levi hadn't given Phoenix the go in the shadows, Phoenix probably wouldn't have taken the liberty to sort
things out himself.
Levi continued, "I can help you deal with the matters within the South. I'm the King of the South, after all. People
within the South will still listen to me. But | can't stretch my hands beyond the borders. Take the Damron Family's
incident this time, for instance; what will the nation think ofif | stand up for you in front of everyone? We
have nothing to do with each other. The nation will only think that | will fight the Damrons because | see great
benefit to you, and | want it all to myself. By then, the people | have to face wouldn't just be the Damrons
anymore."
Matthew's heart skipped a beat. As much as Levi was justifying his reason for not voicing his opinion, Matthew
could tell the master was implying something as well.
Levi's 'we have nothing to do with each other' was clearly a hint for him.
However, Matthew didn't say it outright but played dumb. "Alas! | understand your situation, Master Levi. | will
deal with the Damrons myself."
"But it's not like this is set in stone," said Levi with a smile. "Matthew, if | can find a reason that can shut the
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmnations' mouths up, then going up against the Damrons will be a piece of cake, no?"
