Chapter 117

Enraged 1 looked at Atlas with concern and said, “Matthew’s petty, so be careful of his retaliation.” “You’re overthinking it,” Atlas replied, gesturing for me to return to the emergency room.

When we arrived, my mom asked, “Where’s that scumbag?” “Gone!” I replied.

The emergency room lights had been on for two hours before they finally went out.

A doctor emerged and informed us, “Your dad’s life isn’t in danger anymore, thanks to the timely arrival.

However, you must ensure he doesn’t get too agitated.” The doctor’s words put us at ease.

After exchanging a few words with the doctor, Atlas instructed me, “Hide this from all outsiders, and just say he hasn’t woken up yet.” Then, he got my dad a VIP ward and asked my mom to stay with him.

That would make others think my dad hadn’t awakened yet, effectively stopping the Murphys from visiting.

My dad wore an oxygen mask when the nurses moved him to his room.

He was pale and in a pretty poor condition.

Tears welled in his eyes as he looked at me with trembling lips.

1 I grabbed his hand and said, “Dad, please relax.

I’m happy you’re still with us, and I will treat you better.

I learned to let go and not let Matthew bully me anymore.

You can rest assured.” My dad nodded slightly and said weakly, “You must divorce him.” I stayed with my dad all night and only returned to my place the following afternoon.

I couldn’t believe the Murphys were still around, calmly having lunch.

Matthew frowned when he saw me.

He stood up and blocked my way to the stairs.

Without asking about my dad or where Ava was, he cursed, “You’re a slut, and you got your boyfriend to beat me up! I never thought you had the guts.” Grace also scolded me, “Indeed, looks can be deceiving.

You and your family are vicious.

You already found yourself a man and still want to claim my family’s assets.

I’ve never met a more shameless and evil woman.

You’re disgusting!” I scoffed, “Too bad you didn’t get to know me sooner.

Otherwise, you wouldn’t dare gang up on me.

Matt of my dad doesn’t wake up, I’ll never let you off the hook!” Matthew narrowed his eyes, seemingly shocked.

He muttered, “He hasn’t woken up yet?” Melanie crossed her arms and added, “Cut the crap.

We shouldn’t care if George wakes up.

That’s Chloe’s problem.

Chloe, if you want to stay out of trouble, hand over the apartment.

Otherwise, we’ll keep going!” However, I ignored her and went upstairs.

My room was a mess, and it was apparent they had rummaged through my drawers for the ownership agreement for the apartment.

Matthew followed me upstairs and continued his taunts, “Do you think you can keep acting arrogant just because Atlas supports you? I won’t stop until we’ve settled things!” “Continue if you wish.

I’d love to see what else you can do,” I calmly collected my mom’s clothes and some daily necessities as I spoke, 1 advise you to restrain yourself and save some dignity.

We can part on good terms, or I’ll make your life hell.” Matthew reddened with anger as I continued, “You know I won’t let you take advantage of me.

I know you think shifted assets, set up subsidiaries, and left behind an empty company to keep up your act.

Do you I’m dumb?” Matthew’s expression grew sinister.

“Your schemes and deceitful actions are astounding.

Don’t forget I’m still your wife in name.

Still, you dare to say I schemed you out of your assets? You should stop, and we can move on, or I can go to the end with you.

Matthew was furious, and he grabbed my neck with both hands.

His eyes were bloodshot as he growled, ” I’ll kill you, Chloe!” He tightened his grip on my neck.
