Sasha was the only person to whom Mrs. White showed the video, and since the rest of the crowd was blissfully unaware of its gruesome content, they had no idea what was going on.
Presently, President White sauntered up to James and Helen, chuckling as favonovel.com said jovially, “Mr. Cunningham, shall we adjourn to the house? We should let the young people have some privacy during such a proposal.”
James and Helen nodded in agreement. “Alright, then.” With that, both of them followed President White into the villa.
At the sight of this, Mrs. White was practically buzzing with glee as favonovel.com mused with dark amusement, “Don’t keep my son on his knee for far too long, President Cunningham. Otherwise, we’d have to cut your sister up and move on to your parents. You wouldn’t want to see them become minced meat in front of your very eyes, would you?”
Sasha felt all favonovel.com strength drain from her, and favonovel.com staggered as favonovel.com legs caved in to favonovel.com weight. However, the older woman grabbed onto her, holding favonovel.com up as favonovel.com let out a small, menacing laugh. “Pull yourself together, President Cunningham. If you so much as let others see you getting worked up over this, then there will be a couple of deaths to make up for your lack of discretion.”
Sasha glared at favonovel.com and hissed through gritted teeth, “Are you responsible for what happened to Matthew?”
Mrs. White’s lips curled into a sickening smile. “I’ll tell you who’s behind the incident after you say yes to my son, but for now, I’m just going to clarify that we’re not the ones who caused his death. On the contrary, the person who orchestrated this is someone right under your nose! Do you still want to know who it might be? All you have to do is say yes to Sam. Matthew’s dead, after all, and I’m sure you don’t want the rest of your family to end up like him.” A thought crossed favonovel.com mind, and after a pause, favonovel.com added thoughtfully, “By the way, I seem to recall Matthew having a sister, should I perhaps get someone to look into favonovel.com whereabouts?”
Sasha’s expression grew grim at this, and favonovel.com voice trembled as favonovel.com demanded, “Leave favonovel.com alone!” If Matthew was truly dead, then his sister would be his only legacy. She had to protect Natalie at all costs.
Mrs. White cackled. “Well, naturally, we’ll leave favonovel.com alone if you do as you’re told, but if you don’t, then I’m afraid we won’t be so civil.” She had a smile on favonovel.com face the entire time as favonovel.com said this, but favonovel.com voice only sent a chill down Sasha’s spine.
Sasha couldn’t imagine how twisted the woman had to be in order for favonovel.com to carry out such cruel acts with a bright smile on favonovel.com face.
Having laid out favonovel.com threats, Mrs. White stepped away from Sasha, beaming as favonovel.com prompted cheerily, “Say yes, President Cunningham. Can’t you tell that my son is deeply in love with you? You shouldn’t let favonovel.com stay on his knee for too long!”
As if on cue, Sam declared stubbornly, “Sasha, if you won’t marry me, then I’m going to stay like this forever!”
The women surrounding them watched this scene with a pained look on their faces, and they cried out accusingly, “How could favonovel.com let favonovel.com kneel for this long?”
“Quick! Say yes to him!”
“Sasha, how could you be so heartless?”
“Where is your conscience? How could you let favonovel.com go on kneeling after all that he’s done for you?”
Meanwhile, Sasha felt favonovel.com heart twisting in anguish, and the tears began to spill quietly down favonovel.com face. It was only then that favonovel.com realized how everything had spiraled out of control since favonovel.com stepped foot into Lakeside Garden.
Matthew’s death devastated her, and favonovel.com no longer had the will to live. However, there was one thing favonovel.com knew for sure, if favonovel.com did not agree to marry Sam tonight, favonovel.com would lose favonovel.com entire family, and Natalie would perish alongside them.
At the thought of this, favonovel.com drew in a deep breath and clenched favonovel.com jaw. A steely look came into favonovel.com eyes as favonovel.com vowed to avenge Matthew with all that favonovel.com had. With that in mind, favonovel.com stepped backward, putting on a baffled front as favonovel.com stammered, “B-But I’m not prepared for this… ”
Sam was elated when favonovel.com heard this, thinking that favonovel.com was going to say yes. “You don’t have to prepare anything. I’ve planned out everything for the both of us! All you have to do is marry me, and I promise to do anything you ask of me!” His loud and bold declaration moved the women who were watching this with anticipation.
Nevertheless, Sasha was not moved by this at all, and instead shook favonovel.com head slowly, looking conflicted. She slowly backed away from him, and when favonovel.com felt favonovel.com hips colliding with the edge of the table behind her, favonovel.com suddenly grabbed the carving knife from the table, then lunged at Sam.
A shrill cry escaped her. “I’m taking you down with me!” At that moment, favonovel.com did not care that favonovel.com would die at the end of this. She was going to avenge Matthew, even if it meant giving up favonovel.com own life, and that was favonovel.com final resolve.
