Take My Breath Away

Chapter 1305 He Is A Liar

In a bedroom of a sophisticated neighborhood, a man and a woman were having wild sex. They were suddenly interrupted by the man's cellphone, which had been thrown aside before they started.

With her hair messy, the woman reached out to grab the phone. Once she looked at the caller ID, a trace of anger immediately flashed through her eyes. Biting her lower lip, she handed the phone to the man on top of her. "Answer your phone!"

Noticing Erica's name on the screen, he slowed down his moves and took a deep breath before he slid the answer button.

The phone was about to hang up when his voice finally came on the line. "Hello, Erica."

"Are you busy now? It took you a while to pick up the call."

After a short silence, Watkins answered, "No, I'm not busy. I just didn't hear it ringing, that's all. What's up?"

Erica, who had always been careless, didn't notice anything unusual in his voice, so she went straight to the point. "Here is the thing. Mr. Fei just called and said that Phoebe's case isn't going well. Do you have any idea why?"

"I'll make a few calls and ask what's going on. I'll call you back later."

"Okay, thank you!" Erica felt very lucky that she had Watkins as her friend in Y City.

Now with his help, she could sue Phoebe without Matthew's knowledge.

After he hung up, Watkins threw the phone aside and urged, "Let's hurry up."

Hearing this, the woman pursed her red lips and asked with a hint of irony, "What's wrong?"

"Nothing. I'm just bored." They went back to having sex until Watkins finished up a few minutes later.

In the evening, Erica got a message from Watkins saying, "Now I know why. Erica, someone is indeed holding off the case."

"Who?"

"Well, it's your husband."

Erica was shocked. 'So Matthew knows! When did he find out? How come I didn't know that he knows?' "Why is he trying to hold off this case?" she asked.

Watkins sent her a worried emoji, and replied, "You should ask Mr. Huo yourself. Maybe it's because Phoebe used to be the wife of a good friend of his. Anyway, I think you two should talk clearly about this matter."

Erica's heart sank. She hadn't asked for Matthew's help because she was afraid that he would show compassion towards Phoebe.

However, despite all the trouble that she went to keep her plans from him, he still managed to find everything out and interfere with the case anyway.

It's common knowledge that because of all the increasing hormones in their bodies, pregn

udden, she realized that it was not a matter of getting a more powerful lawyer. The problem was Matthew. Her case would never move forward if he kept holding off the case.

"Did you quarrel with Matthew again?" He could feel Erica's temper through the phone.

"Well, he doesn't want me to sue Phoebe, but I decided to go through with it anyway."

"What on earth did Phoebe do to you?" Gifford was confused. Didn't Erica have a good relationship with Tessie before? Why was she turning against all the Su sisters now?

Erica didn't want to gossip, but she needed to get all that anger out of her chest before she exploded. "She was pregnant, but then she slandered me saying that I pushed her and caused a miscarriage. How can I let her get away with this?"

"Oh, I see. Did Matthew believe her?"

"I don't know." She was still confused by Matthew's attitude. He never said whether he believed Phoebe or not. But if he did, then why was he so kind to Erica? And if he didn't, why did he never tell Erica so?

"I'd rather not interfere in this matter. This is between you and your husband. Besides, it would be for the best if you persuade Matthew on this subject." Gifford was sincere with her.

"Gifford, why can't you understand that he is on Phoebe's side? Believe me, I didn't want to ask you this either, but to whom will I run to if you refuse to help me?" Erica's voice was full of grievance.

Hearing that, Gifford felt a bit distressed and finally surrendered. "I'll call Matthew and ask him about this, okay?" There must be a misunderstanding between them. Therefore, he had to understand what was going on before he took any action.
