“Sasha, have a good rest at home. I’ll be back soon, don’t worry!” Matthew chuckled gently.
In response, Sasha nodded her head helplessly and said, “Well then, Dad, please pass the car key to
Matthew. He’ll drive over there by himself.”
Upon hearing that, James’ eyes widened. “Are you out of your mind? Didn’t I say that we are not
supposed to have anything to do with this?! People would think that we are supporting him if he drives
our car over! Are you only going to be satisfied when our family are finally pushed into the fire pit?”
Sasha was agitated. “Dad, since when has that car become our family’s car? Don’t you remember that
the BMW was a gift from Mr. Newman to Matthew?”
Sneering, Helen mocked, “Of course we remember! He used our company’s medicine to cure Billy’s
daughter and managed to take all the credits! He forcibly turned those hundreds of millions of rewards
into a mere dinner just to satisfy his ego. But guess what? In the end, he got himself a watch and a car.
Without our company’s medicine, he wouldn’t have been able to save Billy’s daughter! How could he
claim the rewards all by himself? Sasha, find anyone on the street to comment on what he did and tell
us whether this car should belong to us or Matthew!”
Sasha was extremely furious that she couldn’t find a word to answer her mother. She had always known
that her parents were bull-headed, but she had no idea what to do about them.
Waving his hand, Matthew said, “It’s okay, Sasha. Someone will come to pick me up later. Just take a
rest first, and I’ll be back soon!”
Involuntarily, Sasha nodded. “Be careful then, Matthew. It doesn’t matter whether you will win; the most
important thing is to come back safely!”
At that, Matthew bobbed his head and chuckled softly.
As James and Helen were watching his departure, the two of them suddenly laughed. “Of course it
wouldn’t matter whether he wins or not! Because there’s no way for him to win!”
Sasha was annoyed by her parents’ attitude. She thus turned her head to the other side without
bothering to talk to them.
Seeing her daughter’s reaction, Helen said to her earnestly, “Sasha, when this is over, I guess Matthew
will be done as well. I know you don’t want to divorce him because you’re sympathetic toward him. But
look at you. You’re still young and have a long way to go in your life! You need to think about your future
too! Your father and I know a man with a good family background. He has a net worth of several billion
and is now residing in the Lakeside Garden. He has a brilliant son who had just graduated from the
University of Cambridge—”
Shivering with anger, Sasha interrupted, “Mom, can you please stop saying things like this again?!
Listen, I’ll never get a divorce with Matthew!”
Trying to explain herself, Helen said, “I wasn’t asking you to divorce. What I was saying is that, if
Matthew is dead, you need to find yourself a way out. Isn’t it—”
“Aaaah!” Sasha screamed. “Stop it! Stop saying that anymore!”
Though she was still trying to continue, Helen was stopped by James. “Forget it. Let’s talk about this
later. Sasha’s is not stable right now. Don’t rush her.”
Without any choice, Helen nodded her head in agreement. She was silent for a while and later, she
whispered, “Why haven’t I been seeing Demi and Liam around these two days?”
Displeased, James blasted, “Why do you want to meet them? They almost got Sasha into trouble last
time and you still want them here to stir Sasha up?”
Helen shot him a glance and retorted, “How could you say something like this? Demi is also your
daughter, your biological daughter! How can you be so biased? Besides, Sasha’s always by our side
because she is the company’s president. But look at Demi, she’s married and has nothing. Shouldn’t you
be giving her more of your attention?”
Helplessly, James sighed, “Whoever said I don’t care about her? But, look at the things she’s done—”
Shaking her hands, Helen interrupted, “Just let go of it. Tell me, who has never made a mistake? Can’t
you just stop getting angry over it? Give Demi a call. Tell her to visit us with Liam in the evening.”
