Chapter 978 Xavier’s Help

Matthew left the backroom and One Piece Restaurant. Before he entered the car, someone was calling his name. "Matthew?"

He turned around to see Xavier approaching him, after which he asked coldly, "What's the matter?"

With a grim expression, Xavier flung a punch at Matthew. "Why can't you take good care of Roni?"

Matthew held Xavier's fist before it could reach him. "You're not the only person worrying about Roni. I am too, but I'm not a prophet. Things can go out of control sometimes. Not everything can be prevented." He swung Xavier's hand away. "And right now, I don't wanna put up with this pointless fight with you."

He pulled the car door and hopped on, whereas Xavier took the passenger seat. Matthew looked sideways at the unbidden guest, slightly surprised.

"Don't get the wrong idea. I haven't forgiven you yet. I'm just worried about Roni. I don't wish to see her getting hurt," claimed Xavier, who gazed at the road and buckled the seatbelts.


He dashed to One Piece Restaurant to get to the bottom of it as soon as he found out about Veronica's disappearance. Who knew that he would bump into Matthew there? Since Veronica's safety was paramount, he contemplated and decided to work with Matthew to save her.

The car engine was started, and they started their journey. Matthew piped up, "Thanks." It was difficult to hear those words from him, but he owed Xavier too much when it came to Veronica.

"Pretentious." Xavier scoffed and cut to the chase. "What happened?"

"It's probably Crayson's doing. The hidden clan possesses a secret skill that seals one's memory. He thought I was the force that influenced Veronica's decision to leave the hidden clan. That's why he wanted to eliminate me. Now that his plan had failed, he decided to kidnap her. I guess he wanna seal her memories so that she can be the leader of the hidden clan." It was a cinch for Matthew to figure out who the mastermind was.

"Ridiculous!" Xavier roared. "Where are we supposed to find him?"

"Someone will give us the answer."

"Who?"

"Dominik," claimed Matthew confidently.

Xavier could not understand the reason behind Matthew's certainty. "How are you so sure he'll know where Roni is?"
