Faced with Martin's sudden string of questions, Matthew could only forcefully suppress the violent changes in his feelings and emotions.
As a suspect of the mastermind behind the Larson Family's annihilation, Matthew's first impression of Martin was naturally hostile. However, while he had been controlling his emotions all along after embarking on the warship and coming face to face with Martin, he would still let some of his true feelings slip from time to time.
And yet, Martin was still able to catch this unintentional display of emotion. At that thought, Matthew couldn't help but feel a wave of wariness arise in his heart.
At that moment, Martin rapped on the table from his seat.
"Ever since you embarked on the ship, it seemed that you were paying extra attention to me. Moreover, your eyes were filled with animosity whenever you looked at me. Are you still going to deny this, Matthew?"
His words lifted a boulder off Matthew's shoulders.
After they exchanged questions, he now understood that there was no sign of animosity in Martin's words, as if they were just having a conversation as regular friends. Moreover, if Martin truly wanted to hold him accountable, he would not be wasting his time speaking to him now.
"I'm not necessarily denying it either. It's just that as someone who's not only the Lord of Eastshire but also the owner of the Reconstruction Pill, I can't help but feel displeased that you've never extended an invitation to me, Mr. Martin."
Matthew understood that at this moment, any explanation would just be useless. Besides, the more he tried to excuse himself, the more it would spark Martin's displeasure instead. Hence, it would be a better option to act like a fool and express his sincerity in a humorous manner instead.
Matthew didn't look down on himself at all, and it was quite the opposite. As the Six Kings were on par with the Ten Families in terms of status, the only reason why Martin would look for him was either to pick a fight or for the sake of his personal interests.
Clearly, the first option had been ruled out, which meant that Martin's objective must be for his own benefit. And the only thing Matthew owned that could potentially entice him was the Reconstruction Pill.
While Matthew had already caught on, it was clearly not the time to push any further. What was more important at the moment was to take care of the matters at hand.
