Chapter 3504 Stunned Silence

The young man leading the Viper Crew hesitated for a brief moment, his gaze eventually locking onto Matthew, who stood composed and unshaken at the center of the arena. As his voice echoed through the space, an almost tangible silence swept over the audience. It was as though the entire world had collectively paused, holding its breath.

Among the spectators, Angus sat with a vacant expression, his thoughts momentarily paralyzed.

What on earth was happening?

Hadn't Matteo mentioned earlier that he wanted me to take the stage and open with a few words?

Yet now, that opportunity had been snatched away-not once, but twice. First, by the commanding presence of Ore Island's governor, and then by the audacity of the Viper Crew.

The crowd wasn't faring much better, their nerves unraveling with every passing moment.

Whispered murmurings broke the oppressive stillness:

"This has to be a joke..."

"Didn't Mr. Romero just have a fight to the death with Matthew?"

"There's too much to wrap my head around-Matthew's enigma, Dominic's death..."

"From today onward, another name will be etched into Ore Island's hierarchy of power!"

Amid the mounting tension, Orla's gaze drifted toward the scene. Her eyes, dark and luminous like the night sky, sparkled with quiet intrigue. She parted her lips, her voice soft yet distinct, cutting through the crowd's murmurs like a silver thread. "Mr. Larden, is what they're saying true?"

Matthew's eyes flickered with the faintest trace of emotion, though his composure remained steadfast. He inclined his head slightly, his voice calm and measured.
