Marrying
Chapter 499
Matthew had tampered with the DNA results because all the signs from the investigation were enough to show that the person who brought her to the cliff and the mysterious person who had been lingering around the hospital were all targeting her.
And this was before it was confirmed or not whether she was Sarah Anderson. If the test results did confirm that she was Sarah, who knows what kind of danger and suffering awaited her.
So heâd bribed the doctor whoâd made the initial report right from the start. Whether she was related to the old lady by blood or not, the report would only have one result, which was negative.
As for any other implications, he couldnât care less for the time being. The first thing he had to do was to ensure her safety.
It was for the same reason that he wanted to hold a wedding for her. He wanted to make it known to everyone that she was part of the Grant family. The Grant family would hack her no matter what, so anyone who wanted to harm her would have to go through them. Only by eliminating any imminent threats could he then concentrate on investigating the matter between her and Olivia.
Some people might think Matthew selfish, but to him, her safety was his top priority
âVallie, I rarely make promises, but Iâve decided that youâre the one for me, so naturally Iâll protect you for the rest of my life,â he said simply but seriously.
Valerie didnât catch exactly what he said and looked up at him in confusion.
Matthew was silent as he wiped away the tears in the comers of her eyes. Then he held her hands again, and smiled while teasing. âDonât cry. You know, Olivia knows that youâre not her biological granddaughter, but she still totes on you so much. If she saw you crying, the might think that Tve bullied you.â
Valerie was amused by that and stopped crying. Each of them looked at the person before them and fell under the gentle gaze. They felt more at ease than they had ever felt before Hand in hand, they reminer to the ward.

Angel watched the two of them from afar until they disappeared out of sight, she balled her hats ses rightly that she almost drew blood from her palms.
Her eyes were red and filled with disbelief. Matthew hadnât bothered to give her a single look after leaving, Dudict he care about their past at all!
âWhy are you crying an elderly, gentle voice said from behind
She hadnât noticed the footsteps appriaching her
The moment Angel realized, she quickly wiped away her trars. It was then that she knew that Owen had witnessed everything
She couldnât help but feel a hule embarrassed.
Owen comforted her in a gentle tone. âDonât be sad. The old ladyâs temper comes and goes quickly. Sheâs just angry because the thinks youâre too noisy. Besides, youâre her godâgranddaughter after all. That other girl is just an imposter. You donât have to compete with her, Just apologize and the old lady will forgive you.â
The older manâs sympathy only made Angel feel more depressed. The old lady was protecting that imposter Valerie. She clearly didnât treat her as a godâgranddaughter at all
There was also the matter with Matthew. He also liked that fake. Even though Angel was the young and respected heiress of the Santos family, he treated her like dirt.
Owen was at his wits end. âWhy are you still crying? Is it because of Matthew and Valerie?â he asked.
He found the current sight of Angel amusing. The girl didnât seem to have any shrewdness. He could understand why someone like Matthew wouldnât take a fancy to her.
Angel sniffed and said with a long face, âOwen. I donât mind even if you find me laughable. The entire Kranson City knows that I like Matthew. I donât know how much Iâve sacrificed trying to woo him since I was young. I even went overseas to recuperate. In the end, when I returned, he had been seduced by that bitch Valerie.
âWhatâs so good about Valerie Matthewâs probably just smitten with her because she has a goodâlooking face. Now, heâs even calling Valerie Warren his wife. He canât even see what kind of inferior goods she is. As far as Iâm concerned, that kind of lowly slut is only good in bed.â
Her face was twisted with jealousy and hatred, and even the words she said were laced with vitriol and venom. Owen couldnât help but frown when he heard Angelâs vicious rant
Angel also realized that she had gone too far She quickly took a deep breath and sighed. âOwen, donât take it to heart, Iâm just venting because Iâm in so⦠so much pain.â

Owen nodded and reassured her. âI watched you guys grow up, after all, Donât be sad, Angel. You wonât look pretty if you do.â
He changed the topic then and said. âActually, Matthew is just momentarily bewitched so he doesnât understand your feelings. Still, if you want to win his heart, itâs not so difficu
Angelâs eyes lit up when she heard that. She e raised her head and looked at him. âWhat did you just say? Do you know what I can doâ she asked.
Owen looked concerned. âI didnât actually want to interfere in Matthewâs affairs, but I watched you grow up and seeing you so sad makes my heart ache too. I do have an idea, but youâll have to listen to me. Even though the both of them are tight as thieves now, I have a way to get him back on your side. Are you willing to do as I say?â he replied.
