Hearing that, Tiger asked, “Was that best friend of yours at your house that day?”
Demi responded embarrassingly, “S-She was… She was at the party we threw at the house the other night…”
Tiger sneered and said, “I guess we’ve just solved the mystery. It must be your best friend who stole the watch and asked her boyfriend to sell it here. Demi Cunningham, you have such good friends!”
Demi instantly looked embarrassed as she did not expect this to happen.
Now that all the evidence was right before their eyes, she had no way of talking herself out of it.
At this moment, James and Helen became infuriated. “Demi, t-these are the clients that you talked about? Who are these people, really? Why did they come to our house to steal? Who from the upper- class society would do such things?”
Demi lowered her head and did not respond.
Tiger curled his lips and jumped in, “You’re kidding me, right? How can these people be your clients? President Cunningham, my men know at least half of those people, and most of them don’t even hold proper jobs. They’re frequently seen stealing and conning people. Some of them even tried working for me before, but they aren’t honest, so I didn’t want them. What kind of business do you have that you’re working with them?”
Hearing this, James and Helen were even more enraged.
James asked angrily, “Demi, is what Tiger said true?”
Still having her head down, Demi remained silent.
Then, James turned to Liam and yelled, “Tell me; are they really our clients?”
As Liam would not dare to lie in front of Tiger, he responded, “N-No…”
Helen roared, “So you’ve been lying to us, haven’t you? These people are really rascals, aren’t they? Why did you invite them to our house? You guys invited trash into our mansion?! How dare you accuse Matthew of bullying our clients? He was right about chasing them out of the house. Tell me—what else have you two been hiding from us?”
Liam looked downcast as he lowered his head, not saying a word.
Meanwhile, Sasha felt relieved.
Since last night, she had been choked with resentment, especially by how biased her parents were toward Matthew; she just could not get over it.
She had been trying to defend Matthew, but it was to no avail.
However, much to her surprise, this matter resolved itself just like this. She finally had closure.
After telling off Demi and Liam, James and Helen angrily left the shop with the watch while Matthew no longer needed to go to the hospital to apologize.
Feeling elated, Sasha left for work with Matthew.
Meanwhile, Demi and Liam were frustrated and downcast as their plans for Matthew to apologize and take care of this matter had crumbled and fallen back on them. Not only that but even James and Helen were now prejudiced against them.
“What should we do? They are so mad at us. Do you think we can still live at The Grand Garden?” Liam asked softly. He really loved that house, and even though they occupied only a bedroom on the first floor
that was not a master bedroom, that room was nonetheless much bigger than their own living room.
The luxurious mansion at The Grand Garden coupled with its beautiful surroundings made him unwilling to move out.
Meanwhile, Demi responded, “Not now, of course. Let’s go back to our place and spend the night there. We’ll go back to Dad and Mom tomorrow to ask for forgiveness. Sigh. Matthew, that son of a b*tch. It’s all his fault. I have to get my name on the land title so no one can ever kick me out of that house!”
Liam’s eyes lit up. So long as Demi managed to get her name on the land title, that house would also belong to him.
Owning a luxurious mansion like that was a dream come true for Liam.
