Chapter 775
James had been good to Helen. He still remembered that Chloe had helped their family in the past, which was why he tolerated Minerva and Tate. However, what Minerva had said earlier infuriated him. Landing a palm on the table, he growled, “Shut up! I’m telling you—I’m not gonna tolerate this! If you insist on siding with her, you’ll get lost with her! Pack up your stuff now and get out of my house!”
Helen’s eyes turned bloodshot in an instant, but this time, she really didn’t have the guts to say anything. Although she was a little mischievous, she was still terrified of James whenever he threw a tantrum. He could be extremely ferocious whenever he blew his top. If she kept making a fuss, she’d certainly be thrown out of the house.
On the other hand, Minerva was flustered. She thought that she could have Helen’s support, but she didn’t expect that she would accidentally infuriate James. Now, even her aunt was powerless to help her.
Meanwhile, Sasha felt truly gleeful. The fact that he had reprimanded Minerva had also helped Sasha to vent her anger that had accumulated over this period of time.
Helen uttered in a small voice, “Minerva, let’s head inside. Oh, stop crying. It’s not a big deal. What’s the point of sobbing? Let’s go…”
Minerva obediently followed Helen back to her room, as it was too embarrassing for Minerva to stay there any longer. Her plan was to let Helen teach both Matthew and Sasha a lesson so that her own position in the family could be strengthened. Nevertheless, she didn’t expect that she had accidentally enraged James, which was the opposite of the desired outcome. She wouldn’t dare to keep making a fuss. Otherwise, she would be chased out of the house. No matter what, she wasn’t willing to leave this luxurious house.
James still appeared indignant as he bellowed, “What the heck! Instead of going to work, she keeps bringing trashy people back to my home. What does she think my house is? A landfill? Damn it!”
Sasha uttered, “Alright, Dad. Don’t be exasperated. Just don’t let people like them step into our house again.”
He yelled, “If she dares to bring those unruly people back again, I’ll directly break their legs! The security guards of The Grand Garden are not weaklings!”
His voice was obstreperous when he said this. Apparently, he wanted Minerva to hear it. Although she was raging, she didn’t dare to rebuke him. After all, she was now in the Cunningham Residence, not her own home.
After he cursed for a while more, James sat on the couch, upon which Matthew and Sasha sat down beside him.
“Dad, why are you home so early today? Have you had dinner?” she asked curiously.
James replied, “Of course not! Tate wanted to borrow my car while Minerva said she wanted to head home. Your mom insisted that I stop what I was doing and send them home. They were not even willing to calm down after we came home! Tate then left the house with my car.”
Sasha frowned and wondered why she hadn’t noticed the Mercedes-Benz G-class when she came home earlier. “Tate doesn’t have a driver’s license, so how could he drive the car? W-Will anything happen to him?” she asked worriedly.
He replied in an exasperated manner, “Who knows? It’s all your mom’s fault for doting on them. I’m telling you—they’ll get into trouble sooner or later!”
At this moment, Helen happened to step out of the room and heard his words, which caused her to be enraged in an instant. “James, what on earth are you talking about? Did you just jinx my nephew? What
the heck! Where’s your conscience? How can you be so vile?” she yelled.
Minerva was indeed in the wrong, which was why Helen couldn’t argue with James. However, Helen found the opportunity to retaliate, so she wouldn’t allow him to be off the hook with ease. She needed to make a fuss in order to get the fury off her chest.
