When Isaac died? Was he already dead? Levi gaped at Matthew in disbelief. "Did you take out Isaac? Y-you…"
After he exclaimed, Levi couldn't bring himself to continue anymore. Isaac was a big deal. In truth, he was Horace's grandson. In his presence, Levi didn't even get to sit. No way! Matthew had actually killed Isaac.
Holding the chair high, Matthew slowly approached Levi. "You'll get to see him in the afterlife soon."
Levi had a quick flashback to a few days ago when Horace called him to look for Isaac. He arranged for people to review the surveillance footage, but they didn't find anything.
At this point, everything clicked in Levi's mind. Isaac had been murdered.
Seeing Matthew holding up a chair, Levi completely freaked out. "I'm telling the truth. I don't have the formula with me, but I promise I'll have someone get it for you."
With a bang, Matthew slammed the chair down beside Levi, smashing it into pieces on the floor.
Levi flinched in horror. "I'll start dialing right now."
After saying that, Levi pulled out his phone and made the call in front of Matthew. He also put it on speaker.
"I'm calling right in front of you."
Matthew fixed his cold gaze on Levi and stayed silent. He wasn't interested in seeing how Levi handled it. All he wanted was to retrieve Silvaris Pharmaceuticals' medicine formula.
Wyatt and Jerome were so scared their faces went pale. They stood nearby, hardly making a sound. In any case, they couldn't have imagined things would turn out like this.
The room was dead silent. Just then, the phone started beeping. Everyone turned to look at it.
Soon enough, the call went through. A man's playful voice rang out. "I used to be the one calling you when it was time to pay, Mr. Lancaster. You never hit me up first. What brings you to call me today?"
