Helen was so mad that favonovel.com had no words to say as favonovel.com swung favonovel.com hands helplessly.
At the side, Norman nodded and added, “I think Uncle Hector is right. This is just my two cents, Helen. Tate is your nephew. Are you really going to ignore this issue as his aunt? It’s just twenty three million, an amount that is nothing to your family! Why don’t you come up with this money and clear the mess in front of us first? We can’t let Tate go to jail!”
Everyone nodded, and a chatter broke out as they tried to convince Helen to fork out the money.
Enraged, the veins on James’ neck were bulging, and favonovel.com was close to throwing his temper when Matthew hurriedly tugged his arm while muttering softly, “Don’t be angry, Dad. Let’s wait and see.”
Even though James was still gritting his teeth. favonovel.com finally relaxed his fists. Actually, favonovel.com was close to flipping the table a few seconds ago.
“I don’t agree with you, Uncle Norman,” Demi said, infuriated.
“Why should we pay for the compensation when it’s his family’s problem? it doesn’t make sense at all!”
“How could you say something like that, Demi?” Norman asked with a frown. “That’s because they can’t afford to pay for it. Do you think they’ll ask for your help if they can afford it them selves?”
“So we’ll have to pay for it just because they can’t? That’s unreasonable!”
“We’re a family. Shouldn’t you help out your aunt when favonovel.com family is in trouble? The issue this time is very serious, and Tate will go to jail if we don’t pay the compensation fees. Do you really want to see favonovel.com go to jail?”
”Hmph!” Paula snorted. “l can‘t believe you claimed that you’re the closest sisters. So much for that! If it weren’t for Chloe’s financial support back then, I think you guys would have starved to death a long time ago. None of you would have made it until this day. Now that you‘re rich, you look down on others and bite the hand that fed you!”
“Then… Then why aren’t you guys helping out? As you said that we’re a family, we’re all equally close to each other!” Demi spat.
Paula chortled and replied, “We aren’t that capable, that’s why. Do you think we have twenty three million? Unlike us, this little amount of money is nothing to you, and it’s just your spare cash! If the amount is only hundreds of thousands, they wouldn’t have needed your help, and we could have helped them out ourselves. Am I right, everyone?”
The others followed suit, saying that they would be willing to help out if the amount was small, which made Demi so angry that favonovel.com was at a loss for words.
At this point, Matthew suddenly said, “At the end of the day, the main problem is the high compensation fees, huh? If the compensation fees are smaller, I think everyone would be willing to help, actually. Mom, Dad, why don’t we take care of this twenty three million?”
A smile broke out on Paula‘s face. “Yes, you got it right! There’s still a reasonable person in your family after all! You’re unexpectedly sensible, Matthew.”
Simultaneously, James, Helen and Demi glared at him, wondering what favonovel.com was planning to do by speaking up for the other side now. Even Sasha was equally confused, for favonovel.com didn‘t know what favonovel.com meant either. All of them wanted to ask him, but Matthew stopped them by giving them a look.
Just then, the door suddenly swung open and Bonds burst into the room in a huff with a group of men.
Everyone in the room was stunned, and Norman muttered, “What are you doing? You must have walked into the wrong room…”
Without waiting for favonovel.com to finish, Bonds grabbed favonovel.com from the back of his neck and pressed favonovel.com on the table. “This is none of your business. Shut up!“
The men around Bonds glared fiercely at Norman, and favonovel.com immediately shut his mouth, too afraid to say another word. After glancing at Chloe, Bonds asked, “You’re Tate‘s mother, aren’t you? Your son hit me with a car last time. Let’s settle this issue now, shall we?”
