Chapter 929 The Campbells Lost the Case
However, Peter continued to shiver in fear. “Mr. Larson, a-about the seven million… I only have less than five million now. C-Can you give me some time to gather the money before I return it to you?” he uttered in a shaky voice.
Matthew stared at the conman for a while before he let out a laugh. “It’s fine! I don’t need the seven million! You can have all of it!”
Peter was dumbfounded, his face in disbelief. “H-How could I take your money, Mr. Larson? Please give me a chance. I’ve really learned my lesson this time. Please spare my life…”
Peter gave Matthew a rather fearful glance and made sure that Matthew wasn’t lying before he heaved a sigh of relief. “Thank you, Mr. Larson! Thank you so much!” Peter grinned. He didn’t just have his life spared; he was even allowed to keep all seven million for himself! Peter felt extremely thankful toward Matthew.
Something else was running through Matthew’s head while Peter celebrated his luck. This guy is great at lying, and he has a group of men who can do the same thing. They can be pretty useful!
Matthew brought Peter back, and Helen felt a heavy load being lifted off her chest once she saw Peter. “Oh, Matthew. You’re so much more reliable! I can’t believe you managed to find Peter in such a short time!” Helen exclaimed.
Sasha wasn’t impressed by her mother’s reaction. “Matthew has always been a serious and reliable man, Mom. You’re the one who’s always rude and disrespectful toward him!”
Minerva stormed out and threw a tantrum at everyone. She ran around to ask for Peter’s whereabouts. However, Matthew merely ignored Minerva when she attempted to scream at him. Tiger and a few other men shoved Minerva aside, and she collapsed onto the ground. She wailed and cried like a madwoman in order to attract everyone else’s attention, but no one seemed to care.
While she was throwing her tantrum, there were a number of people who pulled their devices out to snap photos and videos. Eventually, Minerva felt rather embarrassed to sit around on the ground, so she got to her feet and ran off.
That day, Helen returned home along with Matthew and Sasha. James was still mad at her—he attempted to chase her out when she got home. He only calmed down after Helen showed him the court’s final decision. However, he was still rather displeased by Helen’s actions, and he continued to nag about how Helen shouldn’t have been too nice to the Campbells.
Sasha finally lost her patience after listening to James’s words for a while. “Stop blabbering, Dad! Since we’re all here now, let me ask you a question. What did you do with the twenty million you took from the construction company? Mom said that she had invested the money, but she actually gave it to Minerva. What about you? Who did you give your twenty million to?”
