Chapter 204
Fred was utterly confused, not understanding how he had offended Sophia all of a sudden. She had been smiling and amiable just a moment ago, but now her expression had turned sour.
Although Nolan had never met Valerie, Sophia would talk about Valerieâs matters every day, and his impression of Valerie was extremely positive. He eagerly awaited the day Matthew would bring Valerie home. Hearing Fredâs criticism just now, he couldnât help but darken his expression
Nolan said, âThat girl is nice, and sheâs your Grandmaâs lifesaver. If it werenât for her, Sophia might have been in an accident.â
Every time Nolan thought of this, he would feel a lingering fear and be even more grateful to Valerie
âEven if she saved Grandma, sheâs not goodâlooking. I canât lie about thatâ Fred hadnât had enough fun and wasnât ready to settle down. Hence, he didnât want to marry a stranger, even if it was to repay Sophiaâs debt of gratitude.
As soon as Fred uttered these words, Nolan and Sophia were furious, immediately instructing the butler and others to kick Fred and his family out.
Lincoln frowned, scolding his son for speaking without thinking.
Fredâs sister, Kylie Grant, couldnât help but complain, Iâve been reminding you on the way here, telling you to focus on pleasing Grandpa and Grandma no matter what. But youâve just ignored everything I said.â
âItâs all because Matthew suddenly showed up and said those infuriating things! Fred exclaimed angrily. âAnd Grandma and Grandpa are so confused, even wanted to introduce me to that kind of woman. If I were to marry her, I should die.â
Group, but now⦠Youâre frustrating. If you had
Lincoln scolded, âAt this point, youâre still saying these things? You were so close to entering Noria Group half of Matthewâs qualities, I wouldnât be so worried.â
Fred then retorted. âItâs always about Matthew. That brat is only in this position because his parents died, and Grandma and Grandpa feel sorry for him. If you like to compare me to him so much, why donât I just become an orphan like him? Iâll do better than him then!â
âFred, shut up! Kylie wanted to stop him, but it was too late.
All of a sudden, Fredâs words earned him a slap from Lincoln
Fred hated being compared to Matthew and remained defiant even after being slapped. He grabbed his car keys and stormed off to the underground parking lot, cursing silently. He couldnât understand how Matthew had managed to turn things around after he had tried to ruin him with that drug a couple of months ago.
Fred swore if he found out who had helped Matthew, he would take the person down.
Meanwhile, in the Grant Manor, Matthewâs eyes flashed with a chill.
âAre you sure he left alone in the car? Good, since Lincoln canât discipline his son, I donât mind taking matters into my own hands, Make it clean!â Matthew detested being manipulated, especially after that incident, he wouldnât let it slip by since he had a chance for revenge.
Hearing footsteps approach him, Matthew calmly ended the call and turned around with his usual expression.
He said calmly, âGrandma, I came today to see you and Grandpa. Also, Iâve already been to Mrs. Andersonâs place just now and sheâs okay physically. but her mental state isnât greatâ
Sophia sighed with concern. âIâll go visit her the day after tomorrow. Matthew, are you not upset about what happened with Fred today!
âDonât worry, Grandma. Iâm not.â At the same time, he thought, âFred doesnât deserve to make me upset. Besides, after getting to know Valerie, Iâve realized that every family has its odd relatives, and ours has fewer, thanks to Valerie. And thinking about Fredâs future consequences, you should be more worried about him.
Upon hearing this, Sophia thought he didnât mind and felt somewhat relieved. Although she was angry just now, and turn the family into chaos.
But then, the wondered why Matthew came back alone today without Valerie,
Just as vas about to ask, Mathewâs phone rang loudly.
she didnât want them to fall out
Upon answering the call, an urgent voice came from the other end. âMatthew, are you okay? Iâm bringing the bodyguards to you Matthewâs brow furrowed and asked, âNathan, whatâs wrong?â
On the other ude, Nathan was stunned for a moment when he heard Matthewâs voice. home now! Something bad has happened to your familyâ
right now?
