Chapter 927 Sleepless Night

Crayson said, "That proves that Matthew is badly hurt."

Hayley asked, "Is it caused by your weapons?"

"If that's the case, then his survival chances are slim. Veronica said she wouldn't go into the mountains unless she sees Matthew, and this is going to put a wrench in our plans." He analyzed.

The elders nodded in agreement, whereas one of them said, "It's alright. Eleanor's out of the mountains, so even if Veronica doesn't get first place, it won't hurt us much."

"True."

"He's right."

"Matthew's the biggest obstacle in our plan. He needs to die for our plan to work."

Everyone started discussing.

Crayson's face fell, and he stroked his beard. "She'll hate us even more if we do that." He looked at Hayley, worried that this might put a strain on her relationship with Veronica.

Hayley stated, "If he dies, then no one would know we killed him—not even Veronica. She won't hate us. Without Matthew's protection, she will need to rely on us."

Someone nodded. "Madam Hayley is right. His death brings nothing but benefits for us."

"Yeah."

"Waylen, she said Eleanor took him away, didn't she? Send your men over to take him out and be done with it."

"If he is poisoned by your stuff, then he won't survive the night, but what if he's just injured and not poisoned?"

"You need to order your men to get a clearer picture. If he's just injured, we need to take him out, or it'd be bad."

…

Back in One Piece Restaurant, Veronica waited momentarily before calling Lazlo. Once the call went through, she instructed, "Get your men to keep an eye on Crayson, especially if he sent his men out. Report back to me if he does anything." She added, "Send one-third of your men to search for Matthew, and the rest will keep an eye on Crayson and Hayley."

"Got it, Miss Murphy." Lazlo hung up and went to carry out his orders without question.

After the phone call, she closed her eyes and heaved a sigh. "I wonder if that's the right decision."

She had no idea if taking the risk and telling Crayson that Matthew was hurt was the right thing to do, but he was the best bet she had. No matter how powerful Matthew was, he was no match for Crayson's forces as long as he was in the hidden clan.

He and Destiny came up with a plan to kill Matthew. Now that he was badly hurt, Crayson might kill him, unless he and Hayley cared about her getting first place in the hunting festival, that was. Either way, Crayson would send his men to search for Matthew.

As long as her forces followed Crayson's men, she would know where Matthew was once they found him. Then, she could strike and find Matthew as well as keep him safe. The long night then began.

…

Let's turn back time to a few hours ago. Eleanor was in Lakeside Residence, unconscious for a few hours after the snake venom got into her system. Then, she woke up on her bed.

"Princess, you're awake."
