Chapter 1623
Matthew immediately waved his hand. "Rowan, save your breath. Don't embarrass the Cosby Family in front of
all these people. Even if you're shameless, the rest of your family aren't!" Rowan spluttered, "W-What are you
talking about? How am | embarrassing the Cosby Family?"
Matthew sneered. "What do you think? After hearing Gregory's words, you immediately decided that | was a thief
who had stolen the formula and even refused to letspeak. What do you mean by that? What era are we in?
Even if you've caught the culprit, you have to let them say something for themselves at least, right? But, you
don't even have evidence, and you only listened to his made-up nonsense before you refused to letsay
anything to refute it. Rowan, did you take Gregory's money, or are you profiting from him in any way for you to
defend him like this? Aren't you embarrassing the Cosby Family with your unreasonable behavior?"

Rowan's words suddenly caught in his throat, and he
rebuked furiously, "S-Since when did | stop you from speaking? I just think that a thief like you will say nothing
but lies, so there wouldn't be any point!"
Matthew replied, "You'll only know that after I've said my piece. Isn't it too early for you to calla liar?"
Completely unable to refute, Rowan could only glare at Matthew furiously. "Fine. Then, speak! Nobody's going to
fall for your lies anyway!"
Matthew curled his lips in disdain, then looked at Gregory and asked loudly, "Dr. Huntington, after all you've said,
I want to ask you something. Do you have any proof?"
Gregory answered coldly, "Wasn't | being clear enough? All the data was destroyed by you, and our research
staff were also killed. How would we have any evidence?"
Matthew smiled and suddenly turned his head to look at the Ten Greatest Families. "Gregory, have you noticed
something? When you were talking about this incident, none of the Ten Greatest Families of Stonedale defended
you. They seem to be at a loss, and even a little flustered.
Could it be that the Ten Greatest Families, who are Neverland Pharmaceuticals’ shareholders, didn't even know
about this?"
The moment he finished speaking, the crowd burst into an uproar. As Matthew had stated, after Gregory brought
up the incident, no one from the Ten Greatest Families spoke at all, which was too strange. Logically speaking,
the Ten Greatest Families were all victims of this incident, and they should be more emotional than the rest of
the crowd, but why did they remain quiet? Was Gregory lying about this incident, and the Ten Greatest Families
didn't know about it at all?

On the stage, Rowan's expression also changed. Earlier, he had openly supported Gregory and even scolded
Matthew harshly. If it was really proven that Gregory had lied, then he would've thoroughly disgraced himself.
Meanwhile, the Ten Greatest Families were a little confused, and everyone looked at each other with blank
expressions.
Just then, Macon suddenly spoke up. "Among the Ten Greatest Families, there weren't many people who knew
about this. Back then, we didn't want to get too involved, so we didn't dare to continue our investigation, and we
were afraid to let the members of the Ten Greatest Families know. Hence, when this incident happened, we
announced to the public that the research had failed. Besides, the only people who knew the truth were only the
heads of the Ten Greatest Families. The rest were completely clueless!"
Gregory breathed a sigh of relief. Earlier, he had cup with the lie at the last minute, and if the Ten Greatest
Families all said they didn't know about it, his lie would be immediately uncovered. However, with Macon
defending him, it was the sas the Ten Greatest Families helping him. With the support of the Ten Greatest
Families, his words would be even more credible.
