Chapter 1090

Meanwhile, Matthew continued tailing Sprague into a villa district.

The surroundings were engulfed in darkness, as if the area was uninhabited.

Despite a lingering sense that something might be amiss, Matthew couldn’t afford to retreat now, not after coming this far.

He had to meet Benny tonight.

Sprague parked his car outside a villa and disappeared inside.

Matthew halted his car at a distance, observing the surroundings from his seat.

The villa was well illuminated despite its aged exterior.

After waiting for a while and seeing no sign of Sprague, Matthew decided to step out and enter the villa.

The living room on the first floor welcomed him-spacious, empty, yet impeccably clean.

Even the cushions on the sofa were free of dust, indicating it wasn’t abandoned.

Climbing the steps cautiously, Matthew’s expression remained guarded.

“Benny.

.

Matthew called out, but the only response was silence.

Sprague and Benny were nowhere in sight.

Reaching the second floor, he noticed an open door leading to a dimly Lit room.

He approached slowly and glimpsed a man standing by the window.

Matthew’s steps faltered, and the man turned around.

Their eyes locked, plunging the room into an eerie stillness.

This marked Matthew’s first encounter with Benny.

He had a striking resemblance to the person captured in photographs, with faint traces of Matthew’s own features.

Matthew’s gaze shifted from Benny’s face, taking in the room’s layout.

The space resembled a darkroom, adorned with photos related to the Clark family and Prosperity Group.

Benny showed no surprise at Matthew’s unexpected appearance.

His gaze remained icy and distant as he spoke in a raspy voice.

“I didn’t expect crossing paths with you here.

”

In response, Matthew fixed his stare on him.

Benny snorted coldly.

“Sprague is useless, allowing you to tail him all the way here.

Since you’re so keen to meet me, let’s get this over with, my dear brother.

”
