Chapter 776

James appeared frustrated. “W-When did I jinx him? I didn’t mean to!”

Helen bellowed, “You just said that he’d get into trouble sooner or later. Wasn’t that jinxing? James, I knew you’re such a nasty man! My sister was good to us in the past. We were poor at that time and she helped us to overcome our most difficult period in life. Now that you’re wealthy, you’ve forgotten about her favor. Not only do you look down on my sister and her family, you’re also being vile by wishing for her son to get into trouble. Don’t you have any conscience left?”

He retorted, “T-That’s not what I meant! I was just saying that you shouldn’t dote on them too much.

Tate is a reckless man, so how could you let him drive?”

She refuted, “Who told you he’s driving? It’s his girlfriend who is driving!”

James pursed his lips and snorted. “That’s just what he said. Who knows whether he’ll get behind the wheel when he can’t contain his urge to drive?”

Helen snarled, “James, what do you mean by this? You’re looking down on us, the Freemans, right?

Just tell me right away—if you’re tired of me, we should just divorce!”

Upon hearing that, Sasha and Matthew were dumbfounded. What happened today was not a big deal, but they didn’t expect that things would come to a point where Helen wanted to divorce her husband.

Matthew hurriedly said, “Mom, don’t be angry. What’s the point of divorcing your husband over such a tiny issue?”

Helen snarled, “Shut up! You’re the one who has caused this problem!”

An anxious Sasha refuted, “Mom, what does it have to do with Matthew? The car belongs to my dad now, so it’s up to him whether he wants to lend the car. Matthew has never said anything about it, so how could you place the blame on him?”

Helen argued, “If it weren’t because of his friendship with Tiger and even helped him to earn a lot of money, Tiger wouldn’t have gifted the car to him. Without this car, this incident wouldn’t have happened!”

Sasha was dumbstruck by her mother’s irrationality. A moment later, she bellowed, “Mom, if you think Matthew is wrong to have given the car to my dad, just tell me now. I’ll get Matthew to drive the car away now and you two won’t have to drive anymore. How about that?”

Helen snorted without replying to her. Certainly, she wasn’t willing to allow Matthew to drive the luxurious car away. She just wanted to seize the chance to reprimand him.

James waved his hand angrily. “That’s enough! Stop making a fuss now. Don’t you want this family anymore? I’m telling you, it’s you who promised to lend the car to your nephew. So, if anything happens to him, don’t come asking for my help.”

She yelled, “You old fart, you’re jinxing my nephew again. I’ll kill you!”

With a hideous expression, Helen pounced on James, who fled from the place when he saw that. This woman is difficult to deal with when she’s mad!

After that, she took a seat on the couch with a furious expression. She didn’t mean to find fault with her husband; she just wanted to take the chance to show them that she was the mistress of the house. At the very least, after the fuss, no one had the guts to argue with her anymore, so she’d achieved her goal.

“Let’s go, Minerva. We’ll have a meal together. Ignore them.” She took Minerva’s hand and stormed out of the house in a haughty manner.

When Minerva was walking past Matthew, she spat in front of him and gave a disdainful glance.

Upon seeing that, Sasha was exasperated. Just when she wanted to say something, he stopped her.

“Alright. Don’t argue with her anymore. Otherwise, your mom will reprimand you again. There’s no point in doing this,” he said gently.

She replied through clenched teeth, “She’s crossed the line, though!”

He flashed a smile at her. “It’s fine. I’m a firm believer of karma. If they keep doing bad things, they’ll get their retribution one day.”
