Chapter 409
Man With Super Medical Skill (Matthew)
Sasha gritted her teeth and insisted in a solemn voice, âThese arenât old scores but the truth! My stance is still the sameâMatthew has cleared the debt he owed us and he is the owner of this mansion. It has nothing to do with us!â
Enraged, James and Helen were about to lash out when Demi scoffed, âWell then. Dad, Mom, thereâs no point of saying anything else. Canât the two of you see whatâs on her mind? Sasha, you said repeatedly that this mansion belongs to Matthew and it has got nothing to do with us.
Meanwhile, you have already moved over to this large and brightly lit mansion, leaving Dad and Mom behind at that old and rundown house. Itâs obvious that youâre trying to get rid of them. Back then, we only thought of having a live-in son-in-law so that someone could take care of Dad and Mom when they grow old.
Now that Matthewâs got a company, a mansion and a luxurious car, heâs thought of abandoning them.
Iâve now come to realize that anyone is capable of pulling off anything once they are devious.
Dad, Mom, please donât get angry. Just forget that Sasha is your daughter; you still have me. Donât worry, Iâll take care of the two of you no matter how difficult life might get in the future. Liam, are you with me on this?â
Liam nodded right away. âYouâre right, Demi! The most important aspect in life is to have a clear conscience. It took your parents a lot of effort to raise you and they suffered a lot over the years. Now that theyâre getting old, itâs our obligation to take care of them well!
Dad, Mom, although I am not a live-in son-in-law, the two of you have always treated me like your own son. Iâve always thought of you as my own parents and I promise to take care of you two, even if it means I have to work harder!â
James and Helen were so stirred by their speech that tears started welling up in their eyes. âLook at them! See how sensible Demi and Liam are! My dear Sasha, do you still remember how your dad and I used to work hard in order to support your education?
Demi even decided to drop out from school just so that you could have the chance to further your studies. Alas, look at what youâve become. Itâs our fault for failing to educate you properly!â Helen lamented, wiping tears from her eyes.
What she said was driving Sasha crazy. Demi dropped out from school purely because she wasnât interested in studying. Not to mention that back then they were still a part of the Cunningham Family.
The family owned Cunningham Pharmaceuticals, and it was natural for them to support her education.
James and Helen clearly did not need to work hard to provide her the funds needed.
Also, she couldnât help but be impressed by how good an actor Liam was. He promised to take care of James and Helen like his own parents. However, did he even take care of his real parents who were still working in the countryside? He was merely buttering James and Helen up because he was eyeing the company they owned.
Sasha grumbled to herself but dared not voice them out because that would only add fuel to the fire.
James slowly nodded his head and said, âThe most important thing is, one shouldnât be ungrateful no matter how rich one gets. I never expected my own daughter to be so ungrateful! Sasha, have you forgotten what happened when you were little?
A motorbike was driving in your direction and it was your mom who protected you by wrapping her arms around you and blocking you from the motorbike with her back. Till today, there is a scar on her back and everytime it rains, she always feels sore all over. Arenât you letting your mom down by treating her in this way?â
Sashaâs eyes turned red as she couldnât help but remember the incident. Honestly, her parents treated her well. She only loathed them because of their greed and how unfairly they had been treating Matthew. However, it was hard for her to treat them too harshly whenever she thought about the things in her past.
Understanding her dilemma, Matthew let out a sigh. After a moment of silence, he caved in and offered a soft voice, âDad, Mom, the both of you can move in here too.â
