Chapter 831

Chapter 831 Leanna Wasn’t Too Happy About It Facing Tate’s confession, Leanna was furious. “You wretch! So Matthew didn’t ask you to come? You dare lie to me? Do you have a death wish?”

Tate was bewildered by the turn of events. What is this situation? Leanna’s reaction is way out of my expectations! Logically speaking, after she heard what I said, she should be a little shy and embarrassed, right? Even if she didn’t agree, she wouldn’t get so angry! But what’s going on right now?

Just then, the door to the office opened, after which the secretary rushed in with a few women in tow.

The women wore the security uniforms; they were all Leanna’s bodyguards.

One of the women walked up and did a leg sweep, causing Tate to trip and fall to the floor. At the same time, she locked Tate’s arms and gave them a twist, from which the pain was directly reflected on Tate’s face.

“Stop! Let go! You’re breaking my arm!” Tate screamed.

Regardless of his screams, no one heeded him. Leanna’s expression was cold as she pointed the finger at Tate. “How dare you misuse Matthew’s name just to see me! Hmph, do you know that I was in a meeting just now? This little bit of time you made me waste would cost our company dearly!”

Tate went pale in the face. He never thought that Leanna would pause a meeting just for Matthew’s sake! Who exactly is Matthew to her?

However, Tate had no time to think about these, for he was afraid for real. “M-Miss Sandel, I didn’t mean it… I really admired you, so that was why…”

The reason for his visit put her into a flying rage. “Slap him!”

One of the bodyguards walked over and delivered slaps across Tate’s face, which got swollen instantly.

Even though they were women, these bodyguards were actually strong and could compare to their male counterparts!

Leanna spoke in a cold voice. “You even used Matthew’s name to come here, and now you’re telling me you didn’t mean to misuse his name? Do you take me for a fool? The thing I hate the most is trash like you! Send him to the police station! Also, inform Gonzalez Corporation that we’re canceling our contract with them!”

With that, Leanna turned and left without so much as giving him another look. Tate was losing it, for he just wanted to express his admiration. There was no way he could’ve guessed that she’d react this way!

He didn’t mind being beaten, but it would be another matter altogether if he were sent to the police station. Also, most importantly, if they canceled their contract with Gonzalez Corporation, his father would be done for.

What would his family do then? Tate was extremely regretful now for listening to his sister’s suggestion.

Of course, he was also totally puzzled.

What is all this for? Why is Leanna so good to Matthew but so horrible to me? Just what is so great about Matthew?

At noon, Matthew had just fetched Sasha and was planning to have lunch together. However, she received a call from Helen, and once she picked it up, she heard Helen sobbing. “Sasha, come home quick. Your Aunt Chloe… She can’t make it…”

Sasha was alarmed. “W-What’s the matter?”

Without much explanation, Helen just continued weeping. “Just come back quickly! I can’t explain over the phone!”

Sasha was starting to panic, so she brought Matthew along as she hurried home. Even though she didn’t like Chloe and her family very much, they were still relatives. If something happened to Chloe, she would still be saddened.

However, once they rushed home, Sasha found Chloe sitting next to Helen, right as rain. Jonah and Minerva were sitting there as well. Minerva had her head lowered. She seemed to be sulking, and she had a look of hatred in her eyes.

Chloe’s eyes were swollen, and Jonah’s expression was dark with anger.

Seeing the scene, Sasha couldn’t help but frown. What is going on? They said that Aunt Chloe couldn’t make it in the call, didn’t they? But she’s just sitting here looking fine, and I can’t see anything wrong with her. What’s all this about?
