Medical Genius's Unspeakable Marriage novel Chapter 261

“What?” James and the rest exclaimed in unison.

Did they really compensate them with 300 million?

They then made it back to their car in a state of confusion. Just as Matthew was about to get into the car, Demi asked, “Matthew, what’re you doing? This car is a five-seater, and we happen to have five people here. Can’t you understand what this means?”

Before, it would have been fine for Demi to make such a statement.

Demi was baffled by her father’s behavior.

Looking puzzled, Helen grabbed onto James’ arm. Just as she was about to say something, he raised three fingers in a hand gesture.

Helen was stunned for a moment before it suddenly dawned upon her.

300 million in compensation!

Helen quickly chimed in, “Your Dad is right! Demi, since you’ve already gotten married, you shouldn’t keep asking us for help! Well, we’re heading home first. The two of you should settle it among yourselves!”

The four of them then departed in the car, leaving Demi standing rooted to the spot, a blank look on her face.

“Dear, what’s wrong with Dad and Mom?”

Liam sighed, resignation written all over his face. “Can’t you tell? They must be eyeing the 300 million that Matthew has.”

Demi looked stunned all of a sudden, realizing that Matthew had now become a changed man.

…

It was completely quiet in the car on their way home.

James and Helen—who were sitting in the back passenger seat—were embarrassed beyond words.

What had taken place earlier that night was beyond their expectations.

Not only was Matthew innocent, the key was that he also managed to get a 300 million compensation for their family.

There were plenty of things they could do with that money.

It was time they upgraded to a better house from their current crammed and dilapidated old house.

It was time they bought themselves a car to travel around, because so far they had been using company cars.

Also, it was about time they bought some new furniture and electrical appliances.

Getting clothes, jewelry and everything they had ever wanted used to be something out of their reach.

However, things would be different with the 300 million!

The money would be enough to fulfill all their dreams.

They could purchase a lavishly renovated mansion that came with new furniture and electrical appliances. They could also afford to have luxurious cars, new clothes and all sorts of jewelry.

James and Helen then craned their necks, trying to see as Matthew inserted the card into the machine. He then entered the password before clicking on the screen to check the account balance.

James and Helen were trembling with excitement, their eyes glued to the screen.

Shortly after that, several figures popped up.

It was a number three followed by a string of zeros.

They couldn’t be sure how much that figure meant, even after trying to count it twice. In the end, Helen pressed her fingers on the screen and counted the zeros with her fingers.

“I-It’s really 300 million…” Helen’s voice was trembling because she had never witnessed that much money in all her life.

Although the Cunninghams claimed their family was worth over 100 million, most of what they owned were properties. In reality, they did not hold much cash.

However, what was inside the card was all cash!

Matthew took the card out of the machine and said with a smile, “Dad, Mom, now that the money is in the account, there’s nothing to worry about. Come on, let’s head home!”

James and Helen followed Matthew back to the car, the both of them stuck in a trance.

When they finally reached home, Helen suddenly spoke, “Matthew, y-you told us before that you would give the money to us…”

Sasha cut her off directly and said, “Mom, both of you made it very clear just now that you don’t want anything to do with this money!”
