Chapter 2160 Inviting Emsgate Onboard
Matthew left the manor with a heavy heart.
Just as he was about to get into his car, a familiar figure slowly approached him. ''Madam Quirk?''
He was surprised to see her. He didn't expect to meet Layna here, of all places. Nevertheless, he
inhaled deeply and compartmentalized his emotions before forcing a smile on his face.
''I haven't thanked you in person for your aid, Madam Quirk. I want to use this opportunity to sincerely
thank you for your help,'' Matthew said warmly. Naturally, Leanna had already informed him about their
collaboration with Creative Cloud Spray.
''It's nothing, Leanna and I are family, after all. So, it only makes sense for me to help her out.'' she
waved him off dismissively with a lighthearted smile. Meanwhile, Matthew was surprised to hear this Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
piece of information.
Leanna was related to Layna. It seemed Layna was part of the Sandels' branch family. This was the
first time he was ever informed about such an interesting factoid.
Regardless, Layna didn't give him time to ponder over the matter as she immediately explained the
purpose of her visit, ''Master Levi asked me to send you a message. He said that an old friend invited
them to a meeting at sea. He wants to bring you along to meet them.''
This piqued Matthew's interest, and he asked, ''On the seas? Did Master Levi say who the other party
is?''
She responded calmly, ''King of Rivenia, Martin Newmont.'' When Matthew heard that response, he
was astonished.
Back then in Woodside, he had a discussion with Ambrose regarding the forces that destroyed the
Larson Family.
This man, Martin Newmont, was one of them. So, he immediately agreed to Levi's invitation without
hesitation.
…
On the other hand, Martin received the news that was causing an uproar throughout Emsgate almost
immediately.
''The forces from Emsgate are about to arrive. You will be responsible for them during their stay here!''
Orlaith, who was called to the office earlier, instantly responded affirmatively.
Now that she was nothing but a marionette in his hands, she didn't have a choice but to comply. Plus,
after she overheard gossip that several forces within Emsgate would be in attendance today, she had
other plans in mind. If she could curry favors from these powerhouses, killing Matthew would be as
easy as ABC. Maybe she could even use that chance to escape from Martin's palm. As she thought of
this, she discreetly sneaked a look at the man.
Yet, to her fright, the man had been looking at her calmly with a strange smile playing on his lips. Could
he have read my mind? When she thought about that, she couldn't help but shudder.
Hence, she felt no need to linger in his office any longer. So, she excused herself and left the room
hastily. This man was just too scary.
By the time the dinner banquet on the battleship was ready, several great forces that received Martin's
invitation soon boarded his battleship.
When Manager Baeddan saw her, he couldn't help but blurt, ''Orlaith, what are you doing here?''
According to the Baeddan Family's rules, she should've returned home to plead guilty and receive her
punishment by now.
Orlaith waited for him to leave as she stood there with contempt in her bloodshot eyes. She had always
been a proud woman. So, when had she ever been humiliated by people around her time and time
again? NovelDrama.Org
Although the invitation letter everyone received had indicated the name of the host, this was the first
time most of them were seeing him in person.
All of a sudden, the crowd broke out in heated whispered discussions.
