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 favonovel.com 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.
“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 favonovel.com explained his purpose of coming out.
Despite that, Jacob pushed favonovel.com aside in a rough manner after favonovel.com 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!”
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 favonovel.com saw so many people on Jacob’s side, favonovel.com spun around again and ran out of the hotel. If favonovel.com 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, favonovel.com also knew that James and Helen would definitely hate favonovel.com later for leaving just like this. So a little while after favonovel.com left, favonovel.com 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 favonovel.com 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!”
“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, favonovel.com 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 favonovel.com looks big and tough, what is favonovel.com 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 favonovel.com 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?”
