Chapter 1062 Are You Really Alright?
Meanwhile, at The Grand Garden, Sasha had made several attempts to act recklessly and chase after Matthew. But she was constantly stopped by Helen. As for James, he had been snooping around, attempting to find out the situation at the Lewis Family through various channels.
Unlike everyone else in the room, Liam and Demi were the most carefree ones at this moment.
“Dad, stop wasting your energy on him. Matthew’s definitely in deep trouble today. So, why do you still bother about him? I would disassociate myself from him if I were you. That’s how things should be done, is it not? Otherwise, what should we do if the Ten Greatest Families of Eastcliff decide to hold us accountable?” Demi said with a smile on her face.
Upon hearing that, James glared at Demi angrily. “Shut up!”
Demi pouted her lips. “But, Dad! I’m simply telling the truth! What? Do you honestly think that Matthew can make it back unharmed? Right now, the evidence presented is conclusive. If he really is able to flee from the wrath of the Lewis Family, then pigs might fly!”
Enraged by Demi’s words, Sasha flushed with anger. Just as she was about to speak, the door suddenly opened.
Matthew!
As if tricks were being played out in front of their eyes, everyone in the room was stunned for a moment. They were too shocked to respond, and they could only stare at Matthew with their eyes bulging out.
The first person to snap back to their senses was Sasha. At once, she let out a scream and quickly ran toward Matthew. Then, she threw herself into Matthew’s arms.
“Matthew, you’ve returned! You’re unharmed, yes? Thank goodness! I know you’ll be just fine.” Tears kept pouring out as Sasha spoke.
Whilst in the period of suspense earlier, she was swamped with anxiety.
As if she had seen a ghost, Demi immediately jumped with fright. “How is that possible? How can you possibly return unharmed? Matthew, did someone from the Lewis Family follow you back in hopes of capturing us all? Y-You should be responsible for your own doings. Why are you dragging us all into this matter together with you?”
In a fit of panic, James and Helen peeked outside at their courtyard after they heard what Demi had said. However, there was not a single soul spotted in the yard.
Ignoring Demi’s words, Matthew took Sasha’s hand and consoled her softly. “Why are you crying, silly?”
Feeling extremely dissatisfied with the situation, Demi exclaimed, “Bullsh*t! There was evidence! Solid evidence! H-How could you possibly be fine? Matthew, you snooped past under their noses, didn’t you? You better leave! Leave now! Don’t drag our family into this mess!”
The moment Demi’s words rang in Matthew’s ears, he spoke coldly. “Evidence? The evidence they had did not prove anything!”
Once again, Demi exclaimed, “Nonsense! That was the verified evidence from the police station. I don’t believe you! You must have escaped. Get out! Now! Don’t you dare attempt to drag us down with you!” As Demi said that, she pushed Matthew out.
Unable to restrain herself, Sasha slapped Demi in the face. “Shut up! Matthew said everything was fine. What more do you possibly want?”
Covering her face, Demi barked, “What the hell, Sasha?! I’m doing this for our family’s own good! Once the members of the Ten Greatest Families of Eastcliff notice he has escaped, they will definitely hunt him down. And if they follow his trail to our house, they will definitely think we’re his accomplices. By then, our family will be doomed…”
Sasha’s face was livid with anger. “I believe in Matthew. If he says it’s fine, then it’s fine! You can leave if you’re so fearful of getting dragged into this mess! No one’s holding you back! Also, stop saying our house! You’re married, and this place is my home, not yours. This house was purchased under Matthew’s name, so pack your bags and get lost!”
Furiously, Demi turned to look at James and Helen. “Mom! Dad! Look at your wonderful daughter! Is it wrong for me to care for our family? She even claims that this house belongs to her and Matthew. If that’s the case, does that mean you two are not allowed to stay here too?”
Again, Demi tried to infuriate both James and Helen using reverse psychology. However, this time, James merely ignored her.
Instead, James took a deep breath and whispered, “M-Matthew, are you really alright?”
