Matthew came down to see Tiger waiting for him in the car, but he chose not to get in.
Instead, he stood beside the car and said gravely, "Tiger, head over to Brittany's place…"
"What do you mean by this, Matthew? I'm not afraid of dying…" Tiger spoke up hurriedly.
Matthew waved his hand. "I'm not saying that you are, but we don't need to make unnecessary sacrifices! Now that I've made the trip to Times Hotel, I've done enough to uphold my reputation. The Damrons are going to send people after me, so I'm going to make a run for it. It'll be easier for me to go on the run alone, whereas it'll be tougher if you came along with me. You get it, right?"
Tiger nodded helplessly. He was aware that under these circumstances, someone with his level of abilities would only be a burden to Matthew if he followed along.
"Remember. Head to Brittany's place and stay in hiding for now. Don't get caught and make me have to come and save you," Matthew said.
Tiger nodded once again and muttered, "Take care of yourself, Matthew. If anything happens to you, then I… I'll kill as many Damrons as I can, even if it means going down with them!"
Matthew chuckled and patted Tiger on the shoulder. "Don't be silly. I won't die so easily! Go, now!"
Tiger drove off first, while Matthew stayed back and drove off in a separate car under the watchful eyes of the Damrons.
He purposely did it in full view of the Damrons so that they would focus their attention on him instead of going after Tiger.
Though in actuality, Matthew wasn't worried about Tiger making his escape.
Brittany had stationed a lot of people nearby while Stanley was waiting right around the corner.
Tiger would be safe once he was within Stanley's sight.
The Damrons wouldn't start a fight with Brittany's people just for the sake of catching Tiger. Therefore, all of their attention would be on Matthew.
The SUV was on a separate lane at first, but when it was less than thirty feet away from the three cars, it swerved straight into the three cars' lane.
That wasn't the end of it. The SUV picked up speed and rammed straight into the three cars like a hungry predator pouncing on its prey.
The driver of the first car jumped in his seat and tried to move out of the way to avoid the SUV, but it was too late.
The SUV crashed right into the side of the first car, and the car flipped over from being rammed at such a high speed.
The second car couldn't swerve in time. It crashed into the first car and flipped over as well.
The final car at the back managed to move out of the way in time, but it crashed into a boulder by the side of the road.
The SUV had single-handedly wrecked all three of the Damrons' cars. They were now nothing more than piles of metal littered across the road.
