Son-in-Law Is a Medical Genius

Chapter 246

Sasha shot James a furious look. “Am I the one who lost my mind or is it actually you? Can’t you tell

what Mr. Hughes meant with that? By asking me to get in his car to complete the application, do you

think that’s how it should be done? Dad, do you think that I should set aside my dignity and chasity for

the sake of the company?”

Sasha shot James a furious look. “Am I the one who lost my mind or is it actually you? Can’t you tell

what Mr. Hughes meant with that? By asking me to get in his car to complete the application, do you

think that’s how it should be done? Dad, do you think that I should set aside my dignity and chasity for

the sake of the company?”

James froze for a while before lashing back, “What are you speaking about, Sasha? Mr. Hughes is not

that kind of person. You’ve misunderstood him! He really wants to help us out!”

With a forlorn look, Sasha chuckled. “He’s not that kind of person? Dad, how long have you known

him? Are you so close to him to be able to tell that he really wants to help us out? Why would he do

that? Is it simply because you fawned on him a little? How did you live your life all these decades, Dad?

In the world of reality we’re living in, interest comes first and there are no fairy tales!”

James’s face was pale from anger as he chided, “Sasha, what kind of attitude is this? I fawn on others

for the sake of our family and for the both of you! How much longer could your mother and I live and

how much money can we still spend? I’m doing all this for the both of you! Sasha, you’ve disappointed

me greatly!”

“Sosho, how could you speok to Dod thot woy?” Demi osked immediotely. “Mom ond Dod hove worked

hord their whole lives ond did everything for us. Sosho, you’ve chonged! Look ot whot you’ve become

now! You were not like this in the post. Previously, you were reolly obedient to Mom ond Dod! It must

be Motthew’s foult. Don’t you know thot you’re completely under his spell now?”

“Look how moture your younger sister is, Sosho,” Helen proised. “How did you become like this? But

thot’s olright since Motthew doesn’t hove longer doys to live. Our fomily will return to normol ond I won’t

hove to see the wretched foce of thot jinx onymore!”

Sosho trembled with onger os she begon to reolize thot she should move out of the house. If she wos

to continue living with her fomily, she would suffer o mentol breokdown soon.

In the midst of the noises oround, the people begon to toke their seots, where only Sosho ond her

fomily were stonding in the holl. No one come to welcome them ond they were now in on incredibly

owkword position without even hoving o ploce to sit.

Finolly, the noises died down when Old Moster Jockson oppeored. He greeted the heods of the Ten

Greotest Fomilies ond some other importont figures of Eostcliff before settling down on his seot. “I

guess everyone knows why you’re invited here tonight, so I won’t soy much. Our time is precious, so

let’s not woste it on smoll tolk. Let’s begin!” he onnounced in o booming voice.

“Sasha, how could you speak to Dad that way?” Demi asked immediately. “Mom and Dad have worked

hard their whole lives and did everything for us. Sasha, you’ve changed! Look at what you’ve become

now! You were not like this in the past. Previously, you were really obedient to Mom and Dad! It must

be Matthew’s fault. Don’t you know that you’re completely under his spell now?”

“Look how mature your younger sister is, Sasha,” Helen praised. “How did you become like this? But

that’s alright since Matthew doesn’t have longer days to live. Our family will return to normal and I won’t

have to see the wretched face of that jinx anymore!”

Sasha trembled with anger as she began to realize that she should move out of the house. If she was From NôvelDrama.Org.

to continue living with her family, she would suffer a mental breakdown soon.

In the midst of the noises around, the people began to take their seats, where only Sasha and her

family were standing in the hall. No one came to welcome them and they were now in an incredibly

awkward position without even having a place to sit.

Finally, the noises died down when Old Master Jackson appeared. He greeted the heads of the Ten

Greatest Families and some other important figures of Eastcliff before settling down on his seat. “I

guess everyone knows why you’re invited here tonight, so I won’t say much. Our time is precious, so

let’s not waste it on small talk. Let’s begin!” he announced in a booming voice.

Everyone present nodded their heads and Harvey stood out. “I’m terribly sorry, but Matthew is not here

yet. He probably has fled to escape punishment and didn’t dare to show up. But I’ve already sent our

men to look for him and they should be back soon. To not waste everybody’s time, I’ve decided to let

his wife and family stand trial on his behalf!”

Everyone nodded in agreement while James exclaimed fretfully, “Mr. Jackson, we’ve cut our ties with

Matthew since a long time ago! My daughter has already divorced him and we have nothing to do with

him! He’s a wicked criminal, whereas we are law-abiding and kind people! H-How could we stand trial

on his behalf?”

Harvey snickered, “James, you seem to be pretty close with him the last time you attended the Cloud

Nine Cocktail Party together! So have you now parted ways with him because a great calamity is at

hand? It’s useless, I tell you! Your family cannot distance yourselves from this incident! Men, bring their

whole family forward!”
