Chapter 570
Man With Super Medical Skill (Matthew)
Everyone was dumbstruck; they had never seen Matthew this angry before. With a slight tremble in her voice, Helen mumbled, âD-Donât you dare go overboard, Matthew. This is my familyâs matters, youâ¦â
âI support Matthew this time, Mom!â Sasha cried. âDonât give me that nonsense about how itâs our familyâs matters; the company is under my name and the house is under Matthewâs. I can financially provide for you and Dad, but I donât have the duty to provide for Demi and Liam!â
Matthew shot a glance toward Sasha. She chose to stand by my side at the most critical moment, he thought to himself.
The look on Helenâs face changed immediately as she shouted angrily, âHow could you choose an outsider over your own family, Sasha? Fine. Iâll⦠Iâll die in front of you right now. Iâll kill myself right hereâ¦â She snatched the knife over from James and placed it at her own neck, threatening to harm herself. Sasha had tears in her eyes, but she bit onto the inside of her cheek and forced herself not to stop her own mother. I refuse to make any compromises when it comes to things related to Matthew!
Matthew simply pulled his phone out and made a call. âTiger, I want you to collect all proof of transactions related to the 300 million that had been transferred out of Cunningham Pharmaceuticals previously. Also, I need you to hire the best lawyer in town; I want Liam and Demi to go to prison!â
In the end, Helen didnât actually dare to cut herself. She was just scaring Sasha, and the former completely froze once she saw Matthew making the call. âMatthew, y-you really made the call. Are you crazy? Look at him, S-Sasha; thatâs your biological sister weâre talking aboutâ¦â
Sasha kept quiet with an icy, emotionless look on her face. As James watched all of this happening, he knew that Matthew had really lost it this time. He swiftly gave Helen a look before he then bellowed, âYouâre too much, Demi! How could you insult his mother? You⦠Hurry up and apologize to Matthew!â
Demiâs face was as pale as a sheet. She could tell that both her parents were no longer able to save her this time. With an uncertain, fearful gaze, she looked up at Matthew as she whispered, âI-Iâm sorry, M-Matthewâ¦â
âIs that how you give a sincere apology?â Matthew spoke without even looking at her.
âI-Iâve already apologized; what more do you want me to do?â Demi was starting to get anxious.
âYou can choose not to apologize!â Matthew said with a frown.
James then interrupted and shouted, âYou should speak a little more properly, Demi!â
Eventually, Demi gritted her teeth and lowered her head before she said, in a much clearer tone this time, âIâm sorry, MatthewâIâve made a mistake! Iâll never do such a thing again in the future, so please forgive me!â
Matthew side-eyed her before he shifted his gaze to Matthew and Helen. âWe can give you 300 million.
But I still stick to my wordsâitâs impossible for things to be done in one week!â
The husband and wife simply nodded in agreement; they didnât dare to go against Matthew when he was so furious!
Once Matthew and Sasha went up to their room, James and Helen quickly pulled Demi and Liam into theirs. Shortly after they went in, both Matthew and Sasha came back down and quietly stopped right outside James and Helenâs room. They wanted to figure out why the older couple needed the 300 million so badly and what they were going to do with it.
In the room, Demi was still sobbing as she said, âIs Matthew crazy? How dare he hit me?! Mom, Dadâ
you guys⦠didnât even stop himâ¦â
James gave her a long sigh. âDemi, Iâm not trying to lecture you, but you really went overboard with your words this time! You know what sort of person Matthew is; he doesnât get angry often, but he really loses it once he does. His mother passed away at a young age and she took care of her kids all by herself, so it mustâve been tough for her; thatâs why sheâs the single person he respects the most.
Anyway, why did you have to insult his mother? Arenât you just creating problems for yourself here?â
Demi was fuming when she replied, âWell⦠I wasnât doing it intentionally. How could he hit me?â
âAlright, thatâs enough. I donât want to hear this nonsense anymore! Just watch it when you speak in the future!â James raised his hands and gestured for her to stop.
With a sigh, Helen added, âSasha has really gotten fooled by this man, huh? How could she help him go against her own family? Do we even have any say when weâre in this house?â
James squeezed his brows together. He had an uneasy feeling about this whole situation. The three of them spoke for a while longer before Demi finally calmed down and asked, âDad, weâre getting the 300 million soon. What should I do with that thing I told you previously?â
Sashaâs heart nearly leaped out of her chest. Demi is the one who wants this 300 million? What are they trying to do with it?
