Medical Genius's Unspeakable Marriage

Chapter 258

After hurling a barrage of curses, the Jacksons left the room leaving behind Helen and her family who were exchanging blank looks at each other.

It was only after a while did Helen mumble under her breath, “I-Is it just a misunderstanding? Liam, didn’t you tell us that the evidence against Matthew is conclusive?”

Looking puzzled, Liam stammered, “I-I have no idea what this is all about too… I wonder why they could still make such a mistake although they claimed they were holding a very strong evidence against Matthew. I-I guess his video is fabricated?” Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Sasha, who was annoyed by his comment, challenged, “Is there something wrong with your mind? Could a video which captured a man’s face be fabricated? If you think it’s fake, try making a fake video yourself with a human’s face captured!”

Liam was left stumped.

Grinning triumphantly, Sasha gloated, “Now, I don’t think you guys have any other comments to make, do you? I told you guys that Matthew wasn’t the murderer before this!”

Holding their heads low, they did not make a sound because there was nothing else they could say in the face of the truth.

Demi remarked disdainfully, “Hmph, what’s so big a deal that he has now proven his innocence? I would pay him more respect if he were the murderer. Now, he’s shown everyone that he’s a useless guy who doesn’t even dare to kill someone!”

Sasha, who was furious to hear her comment, challenged, “Demi, what did you mean by that?”

“Nothing special. He’s just an eyesore to me. What’s the problem with that?”

Exasperated, Sasha snapped, “Why is my husband an eyesore to you?”

“Just because my husband is more competent than him! Your husband is a useless kept man who doesn’t even have the guts to kill someone. Why do I have to think highly of him?” Demi asked.

Sasha was quivering with rage. “Y-You…”

Looking proud, Demi confronted her, “What is it you’re trying to say? Did I say something wrong? Just correct me if you can!”

Sasha, who was looking furious at first, suddenly jeered, “I almost forget about one thing without your reminder. Liam, didn’t we make a bet before this? According to what we agreed before, you have to kneel down and offer kowtows to Matthew as an apology, right?”

Liam looked rattled in an instant. He only dared to make the bet with Sasha because he had never expected to lose.

Who would have thought that Matthew would actually turn out to be innocent, which meant he had lost the bet.

Demi panicked too because she had totally forgotten about the bet and she only remembered it when Sasha mentioned it just now.

Immediately, Demi said with a smile, “Sasha, why are you taking the bet so seriously? Since we are a family, the bet is just a joke and we shouldn’t take it too seriously.”

With a long face, Sasha refuted, “It’s just a joke? Your husband has already found himself a lawyer and got the share transfer agreement drafted only waiting for my signature! Now, you’re trying to tell me it’s a joke? Do you think I would buy it?”

Looking embarrassed, Demi couldn’t help but regret being too mean just now. Now, there was nothing else they could do to excuse themselves.

Sasha urged, “Liam, what’re you waiting for? Honor your promise now!”

Liam looked extremely distressed as the idea of offering kowtows and apologizing to Matthew seemed outlandish to him.

He then glanced at James and Helen for help.

James only furrowed his brows without saying anything whereas Helen’s heart went out for Liam. “Sasha, just forget it! Since we are a family, I don’t see the need to make a fuss out of it. Well, since everything has been solved, let’s head home!”

Liam took to his heels immediately but he was stopped by Sasha. “That’s not the right way to go! A man must honor his promise!”

Demi was annoyed. “Sasha, do you really have to be so fussy?”

Sasha scoffed, “Demi, I don’t want to be fussy. In fact, I thought of forgetting about the bet at first because nothing else matters as long as Matthew managed to make it back safely. However, as you kept making humiliating comments about him just now, I have no choice but be fussy. Since you said that my husband is a useless man, I want your husband to offer kowtows and apologize to my husband as compensation!”

Demi was stunned. It was only then did she realize that she had put herself in such a mess just because she had failed to watch her mouth!
