Chapter 918

Chapter 918 You Were Just Bragging!

Chloe exchanged glances with Minerva. Minerva’s words had given her the support and courage she needed. After taking a deep breath, Chloe strode toward Helen. “Helen… I-I need your help.”

Before Helen could say anything, Demi interrupted Chloe. “What tricks are you trying to pull this time, Aunt Chloe? Your son used stolen money to buy a bike, and you guys put all of the blame on my mom when he got into an accident. What are you trying to do now? Are you expecting my mom to exchange her life with your son’s?”

Chloe’s face was flushed as she spoke softly. “Helen, can I have a private conversation with you? Don’t you remember how close we used to be when we were children?”

Helen couldn’t help but sigh when she recalled her earlier days. “Just spit it out, Chloe!” What do you want to say?” Chloe hastily told her sister about the situation. She was crying by the end of the story.

“This is your nephew we’re talking about, Helen!” she wailed. “You don’t want to see him in a wheelchair for the rest of your life, right? Please contact Matthew and get him to bring Mr. Harrison over to help us out, okay? I’ll get on my knees…” Chloe actually began to kneel and cry on the floor as she spoke.

Her actions left Helen dumbfounded as Helen hadn’t expected things to turn out that way. After a few moments, Helen finally regained her senses before she helped Chloe up to her feet. “Chloe, it’s not that I don’t want to help you, but how am I supposed to do anything? Don’t you remember what happened previously? Tate sent some men to capture Crystal, and you guys had a huge fight with the Harrisons.

Mr. Harrison nearly lost his mind back then. Do you think he would agree to help you if we were to call him now?”

A mixture of Chloe’s tears and snot covered her face. “I’m aware of that, Helen, but I don’t have any other choice. Tate is my life! I can’t survive if anything happens to him. He’s your nephew as well, Helen. Please help me. Please…”

“I-I really don’t know how to help…” Helen uttered in a shaky tone. Minerva walked over to give her input. “Why don’t you try giving Matthew a call first? We’ll find a way from there.”

Chloe nodded in agreement. “Yeah, Helen. Just… Just give Matthew a call…”

After a moment of silent contemplation, Helen finally gritted her teeth and pulled her phone out to contact Matthew. She gave Matthew a brief summary of what had happened at the hospital. “Matthew, we’re talking about a person’s life right here… You need to get Mr. Harrison to come over! I’m begging you!” Helen cried through the phone.

There was silence at the other end of the phone for a moment. “Let me find a solution, Mom.” Right then, Minerva leaned in to talk. “Didn’t you say you’re really close to Mr. Harrison, Matthew? It’s time to prove yourself. If you fail to get him to come over, then it’ll show that you were just bragging all along!”

Matthew frowned upon hearing her words. Is Minerva still trying to provoke me at a time like this?

“Well, my apologies, then. I was bragging, after all. I won’t be able to get Mr. Harrison to go over. You guys can contact some other professionals!” Matthew uttered coldly.

Minerva was shocked. She had intended to provoke Matthew in order to force him to comply with their wishes. To her surprise, Matthew hadn’t fallen for it and had immediately rejected her instead.

Chloe rushed over to give Minerva a firm slap. “Step aside! Did anyone allow you to speak? Matthew, please… Just ignore Minerva. Please try your best to contact Mr. Harrison… My son’s life is on the line here… I’m begging you! I’ll get on my knees for you, okay? Please, Matthew…”

“Fine. Just give me some time,” Matthew finally said in a stern voice.

Chloe was overjoyed. “That’s wonderful! That’s great. Thank you so much, Matthew!”
