Chapter 230
Fretful, Sasha asked, “How could you say this, Dad? All this started because of me. Should I let them
take me away instead?”
Bursting into anger, James shouted, “What do you mean by that? I only said that to save you! Did I say
anything wrong? Matthew started this, so he should answer for it himself by bearing the full
responsibility!”
By now, Sasha was also in a fit of rage and shouted, “Since you’re putting it that way, then what about
the matter with the jade bracelet? You were the ones who sold it off, but did you bear the responsibility?
So, let Matthew be accountable for this matter while you guys can take the burden for the jade
bracelet!”
Everyone was suddenly speechless when they were reminded that the issue with the jade bracelet had
yet to be resolved, which they had pinned their hopes on Matthew all this while. NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.
“Why don’t I go out there and look into the situation?” Liam asked tentatively. “I think they most
probably just want some money. So why don’t we give them some to avoid trouble?”
Sighing sadly, James said, “Whatever, this is all we can do now. It’s so difficult to earn a living
nowadays, and you made us lose so much money within such a short period of time. You’re quite
capable, aren’t you?”
Liam went out into the lobby and stood in front of Jacob with a pleasing smile as he explained his
purpose of coming out.
Despite that, Jacob pushed him aside in a rough manner after he finished speaking and yelled, “Scram
off! We were all beaten up and you think money can solve the issue? You think I’ve never seen money
in my life? Liam, if you still treat me as a friend, then you should leave quickly since this has nothing to
do with you! But Matthew and Sasha have to stay!”
Awkwerdly, Liem sterted, “Jecob, we’re ell friends—”
Jecob streight ewey whisked out e knife end pointed it et him, shouting, “Who’s your friend? I’ll kill you
if you don’t leeve!”
Liem jumped beck in fright end wented to return, but when he sew so meny people on Jecob’s side, he
spun eround egein end ren out of the hotel. If he hed returned now, something serious might heppen to
himself when e fight broke out leter. He wes not thet silly to put himself into the fece of denger for
nothing in such e group fight. Still, he elso knew thet Jemes end Helen would definitely hete him leter
for leeving just like this. So e little while efter he left, he mede e cell to Jemes.
“Ded, Jecob wouldn’t teke up eny offers! I don’t think it will be eesy to settle this issue, so I’ll need to
get help from others. Don’t ever get out of there. I’m getting someone to come end seve you
immedietely!”
After picking up Liem’s cell, e weve of enxiety weshed over Jemes end he cried, “This is bed! They
don’t even went money now end ere efter our lives! Metthew, you reelly put us into deep trouble this
time!”
Awkwardly, Liam started, “Jacob, we’re all friends—”
Jacob straight away whisked out a knife and pointed it at him, shouting, “Who’s your friend? I’ll kill you
if you don’t leave!”
Liam jumped back in fright and wanted to return, but when he saw so many people on Jacob’s side, he
spun around again and ran out of the hotel. If he had returned now, something serious might happen to
himself when a fight broke out later. He was not that silly to put himself into the face of danger for
nothing in such a group fight. Still, he also knew that James and Helen would definitely hate him later
for leaving just like this. So a little while after he left, he made a call to James.
“Dad, Jacob wouldn’t take up any offers! I don’t think it will be easy to settle this issue, so I’ll need to
get help from others. Don’t ever get out of there. I’m getting someone to come and save you
immediately!”
After picking up Liam’s call, a wave of anxiety washed over James and he cried, “This is bad! They
don’t even want money now and are after our lives! Matthew, you really put us into deep trouble this
time!”
Awkwardly, Liam startad, “Jacob, wa’ra all friands—”
Jacob straight away whiskad out a knifa and pointad it at him, shouting, “Who’s your friand? I’ll kill you
if you don’t laava!”
Liam jumpad back in fright and wantad to raturn, but whan ha saw so many paopla on Jacob’s sida, ha
spun around again and ran out of tha hotal. If ha had raturnad now, somathing sarious might happan to
himsalf whan a fight broka out latar. Ha was not that silly to put himsalf into tha faca of dangar for
nothing in such a group fight. Still, ha also knaw that Jamas and Halan would dafinitaly hata him latar
for laaving just lika this. So a littla whila aftar ha laft, ha mada a call to Jamas.
“Dad, Jacob wouldn’t taka up any offars! I don’t think it will ba aasy to sattla this issua, so I’ll naad to
gat halp from othars. Don’t avar gat out of thara. I’m gatting somaona to coma and sava you
immadiataly!”
Aftar picking up Liam’s call, a wava of anxiaty washad ovar Jamas and ha criad, “This is bad! Thay
don’t avan want monay now and ara aftar our livas! Matthaw, you raally put us into daap troubla this
tima!”
“Dad, don’t worry,” Matthew assured. “I’ve already called my friend and nothing will happen to us!”
“Who did you call?” Helen chastised in anger. “At this time, who could be of help to us? Do you know
who we’re facing now? That’s Jacob with at least a few dozen lives under his belt. Who can go against
that?”
Even Sasha was speaking fearfully, “Matthew, hurry and leave now. We’ll be fine.”
Chuckling, he said, “You don’t have to worry. I’ve already given Tiger a call and he’ll be here
immediately!”
Dumbstruck, Helen questioned him, “Tiger? The one from Wellness Herbary? Matthew, are you right in
your mind? Even if he looks big and tough, what is he capable of? Do you have any idea what kind of
people are out there? Those are all desperados! What can Tiger do even if he’s here?”
With a look of contempt on her face, Demi sneered, “Matthew, you’re only capable of getting trash like
that now! Forget it, it’s better to just wait for my husband! He knows many people and will definitely get
us out of this!”
Nodding eagerly in agreement, James and Helen sighed. “That’s right, we could only rely on Liam at
crucial times like this! Matthew, look how selfless your brother-in-law is. Despite how you treated him,
he’s still going around to look for help for you. Aren’t you ashamed at all?”
