He Saved My Life?
Demi was displeased. “Mom, what does this have to do with me? I’m not the one whom Matthew helps,
so you have no right to interfere with what I want to say.”
Helen rebuked, “Shut up and go back to your room!”
Demi pouted crabbily. “Mom, how can you be like this? I haven’t done anything wrong…”
Helen snarled, “Cut the crap if you don’t want to be chased out!”
Demi clammed up at once as she didn’t want to be kicked out of this mansion.
Not bothered by the others’ reaction, Matthew left The Grand Garden after consenting to Helen’s
request.
However, he did not go to see Craig as he too felt embarrassed to bother him after the incident last night.
As such, Matthew went to the hospital and looked for Jordan first, who then brought him to Bonds Tilly’s
ward.
“Hey Bonds, look who’s here,” Jordan said gleefully.
At this moment, Bonds was sitting on the bed having his meal. Upon hearing Jordan, he turned around
and looked at them in confusion.
“This is…”
Matthew took a step forward. “Hi, Mr. Tilly. I’m Matthew Larson, Tate’s brother-in-law.”
After Bonds heard Matthew’s introduction, the expression on his face changed in an instant. Following
that, he grabbed a mug next to him and threw it toward Matthew.
“Get out!”
Matthew turned aside to dodge the mug.
Jordan quickly ran toward Bonds. “Hey Mr. Tilly, you don’t have to be so mad.”
Bonds scowled. “Jordan, we are old friends and I don’t want to say harsh things to you. However, I will
not show them respect even if you’re here today. You are aware that my daughter was inflicted by an
illegal street racing gang! You know how much I despise them. I wish they could all just die! Why did you
bring his family here? Are you thinking of asking me to forgive him? Why should I?!”
Jordan smiled awkwardly. “Bonds, please hear me out first.”
Bonds waved his hand directly. “You can save it. We’re friends, so I’ll definitely lend you a hand if you
ever need my help, but not on this matter!”
Jordan said in resignation, “It’s not what you’re thinking. I haven’t even introduced Mr. Larson properly
yet. Indeed, he is Tate’s brother-in-law, but did you know that he was the one who saved your life during
the operation? If it wasn’t for Mr. Larson, your operation wouldn’t be a success. Are you aware of that?”
Bonds was stunned as he glanced at Matthew in shock. “R-Really?”
Jordan stared at him. “Of course. Have you ever seen me caught in a lie?”
Bonds took a deep breath. He would definitely trust Jordan’s words out of anyone else’s.
Among his many friends, Jordan was the most honest and kind one.
After remaining silent for a moment, Bonds quickly sat up straight. “Mr. Larson, I-I’m sorry for being rude
toward you just now. I-I…”
Matthew smiled. “Don’t worry about it. I’ve heard about your daughter’s incident. I can understand your
distress.”
With his eyes red-rimmed, Bonds sighed in disappointment. “Mr. Larson, since you’ve saved my life, I’m
at a loss for words. You must have come because of this matter. Hmm, you know what? Since you’ve
saved my life, I-I’ll return the favor. About this incident, I won’t ask for compensation anymore. I-I’m
willing to sign the statement of reconciliation.”
In fact, Bonds’ body was still shivering when he said that as he was not resigned.
The grudge he was holding was not because of his own incident, but his daughter’s.
The driver who injured his daughter was not apprehended yet, so he hated every person who was
involved in illegal street racing to the core.
It was extremely hard for him to bring himself to forgive someone who raced illegally.
