Chapter 1199 You’ll Have to Pay the Medical Fees
“That’s not the way to play Texas poker!” Arthur argued in panic. “H-How do you play like this? It means death if you’re bitten by the snakes! No, I’m not playing this game!”
Instantly, Matthew’s face turned cold. “You’re not playing? Sure, you can leave once you hand over all of the Gibson’s properties and get your family out of Eastcliff!”
“That’s impossible!” Arthur yelled in anger. “Are you planning to devour all of my family’s properties, Matthew Larson? Dream on! Even if I’m dead—”
“Beat him up and send men to his home. Tonight, they can either hand over all their properties and leave as told, or their entire family will be gone!” Matthew ordered in a chilling voice.
Nodding, Tiger dragged Arthur away without saying a thing.
Meanwhile, Arthur struggled with his might. Clearly, he was in regret, but he couldn’t make a sound because he was held at his throat, leaving the other five masters with completely pale faces, helpless at the situation.
Initially, they didn’t need to be afraid of Matthew with their strength. However, they had helped Lord Voodoo in his fight with the 72 voodoo clans of Orleans. In the end, Lord Voodoo had suffered a huge defeat, and their men had made a huge loss as well, resulting in a high number of injuries and casualties.
And now, these six families didn’t have much power to protect themselves anymore. Otherwise, the crown prince wouldn’t be able to catch hold of Robert and Johnny so easily!
“Do you think you can cover up the truth, Matthew Larson? Amongst the Ten Greatest Families, the oldest family has a history of almost three centuries. Do you think that you can wipe us out completely with just one word from you?”
“You can give it a try to see if I have that power!” Matthew challenged indifferently.
Johnny opened his mouth, but no words came out. There’s no other choice, he thought. We have no means of fighting back.
Tightening his jaw, he extended a trembling hand into the glass table and drew out the card on the outermost side.
Even though the card had a small number, he felt as though he had been saved because he wasn’t bitten by a poisonous snake at least.
Next, it was Johnny’s turn, and he tried to do what Robert did. Unfortunately, he wasn’t as lucky because a rattlesnake bit his finger just after he reached in with his hand, and he roared in pain, drawing back his hand immediately.
But the rattlesnake had a lethal poison, and he almost broke down as he stared at his blackened finger. “Save me… save me…” he pleaded, his voice trembling. “Send me to the hospital quickly. Get an ambulance right away…”
Pacing to him, Matthew had a smirk on his face as he said, “Why do you need to go to a hospital? I’m a doctor, and I can cure this poison. However, you’ll have to pay something for the medical bill!”
