Chapter 1905
"Why should | ask them?" Harper scoffed.
"They witnessed our search. They were there when we found these things," Melvin retorted coldly. "Plus, I'm sure
that you Damrons have these on hand as well. By the twe went over, your people had already been there for
quite stime. They would've gathered a fair number of things from the place."
Harper wanted to refute Melvin, but he didn't know what to say, so he turned to Aurelius with a helpless look.
Aurelius didn't know what to say either, so he fumed, "Hmph! Who knows? You lot might've planted the so-called
evidence there beforehand!"
Melvin frowned. "You can't possibly not realize how far-fetched that sounds, Aurelius. Your people investigated
the area for such a long time. Don't tellthey couldn't even figure out whether or not we planted the evidence
beforehand. If you insist on those claims, then I only have one thing to say. Any excuse will serve a tyrant! If the
Damrons' goal is to avenge Falconn, then find out the truth before taking any action. If you're trying to

evidence!"
As a result of Melvin's rebukes, Aurelius turned red in the face, but he was furious as he couldn't refute him.
Just then, Mark spoke up from the back. "If | recall correctly, Matthew Larson was also someone proficient in the
use of charms and curses. He has a good relationship with someone from Orleans, and that was the reason why
he becat odds with Lord Voodoo. Considering his expertise in medicine and his relationship with Orleans, it
wouldn't be hard for him to raise a few cursed bugs of his own. These cursed bugs alone aren't enough evidence
to prove his innocence, Melvin."
Aurelius and Harper immediately started nodding excitedly. "That's right! That's so true! Larson can raise his own
cursed bugs, so who knows he's just trying to frLord Voodoo with these bugs of his? His grudge against
Macon Rathbone, Gregory Huntington, and Lord Voodoo runs deep, and he resents us Damrons too. He might've
used this method to frLord Voodoo! You said that it was Lord Voodoo and the rest who're trying to get
someone else to do their dirty work, so isn't it just as possible that Larson's trying to do the same?"
Melvin frowned. "If you put it that way, then you also have no way of confirming who killed Falconn! In that case,
shouldn't you be investigating to find out who the killer is first? Is it right of you to target Matthew without even
investigating it first?"
"Even though we can't confirm who it was, my son personally witnessed Matthew Larson doing the killing!
Shouldn't Matthew Larson at least give us an explanation?" Mark declared. "He's not even here right now. How
can you expect us to leave after just showing us a bit of so-called evidence? Isn't he doing this because he has a
guilty conscience and doesn't dare to show his face? Doesn't that mean | can assthat he's fleeing in an
attempt to avoid punishment for his crime?"
"Why would | be here if he's fleeing?" Melvin threw back. "He went after Lord Voodoo and the others to prove his
innocence, and | stayed here to explain the situation to you!"
Mark shook his head. "Melvin, since we're old friends, | won't hold this against you, but you can't represent
Matthew Larson. I'll have to assthat he's fleeing because he's guilty! Aurelius, send a letter to all the great
families in my nand request their help in aiding the Damrons to execute Matthew Larson!"
