Matthew shook his head. “Sasha, don’t you know Mom and Dad’s character? If they are aware that the jade bracelet has been found, they’ll definitely aim at it and sell it again one day. This jade bracelet was given to you by Old Mrs. Graham and it has a profound meaning, so we must never sell it!”
Sasha nodded repeatedly. “You’re right. We must conceal this matter from them. This will serve as a lesson to them so that they won’t get into any trouble again!”
Once she got back the jade bracelet, Sasha could finally be at ease. She carefully kept it away, planning to bring it to the company tomorrow and store it in the company’s safe.
Suddenly, Sasha laughed. “So does it mean that you don’t have to bear the responsibility for this matter anymore? Then why did you request for Liam and Demi to move back home?
Matthew chuckled. “If they came, only then we could move out. Aren’t you thinking of having your own place for a long time?
We could find an excuse to do so once they move in. Since Mom and Dad are still making me bear the consequence of this matter, they definitely won’t leave with us. With that, we’ll have our own space and spend some alone time together!”
Sasha’s eyes lit up in excitement while she gently punched Matthew. Then, she said gleefully, “Matthew, you’re wicked! If Liam finds out, he’ll surely die of anger.”
Matthew grabbed Sasha’s delicate hand and replied with a chuckle, “He’s always trying to victimize me. It’s now my turn to let him have a taste of his own medicine!”
Sasha nodded vigorously. “We shouldn’t be soft-hearted toward this kind of person! Matthew, actually, you don’t need to treat them so politely. You should have taught him a bitter lesson a long time ago. Otherwise, he’ll always scheme to bully you.”
Matthew sighed softly. “He’s Demi’s husband. If I had taught him a lesson, Demi would surely make a huge fuss! Besides, Mom and Dad have always favored him. If they made a scene, we would be at a disadvantage in the end. Therefore, there’s no point in doing that. After all, with a little forbearance, we’ll find calm and peace.”
After having his breakfast, Matthew informed James and Helen that he would be visiting Old Mrs. Graham to tell her the truth.
Unctuously, James and Helen squeezed a few teardrops as if they sincerely cared for Matthew. Right after Matthew left, Sasha carried a luggage out.
“Sasha, where are you going?” Helen asked in surprise.
Sasha put on an icy face. “Matthew’s return is uncertain this time. It’s inconvenient for me to stay at home since there are so many people here. From now on, I’ll stay at the company!”
Liam was struck dumb. What was going on? You’re leaving right after I came? Then what’s the point of me coming here? Am I obligated then to take care of this old couple?
