Helen Was Caught
Matthew couldn’t help but ask in surprise, “Heading out? Why?”
Tiger replied, “I-It’s because your mother-in-law went out for some reason and she was caught by the
Lewis Family. The Lewis Family then told President Cunningham to come out; otherwise, they w-will
have to kill your mother-in-law…”
As the severity of the situation dawned on Matthew, he probed, “How can this be? Isn’t s-she looking
after my aunt in the hospital? Didn’t you arrange for our men to guard the hospital?”
“I did,” Tiger answered. “I-I don’t know what’s going on, but those from the Lewis Family didn’t head to
the hospital. It was your mother-in-law who went out on her own. We guarded the hospital, but we did
not even expect that s-she would go out by herself…”
Upon hearing this, Matthew froze. What the hell is going on here?
Helen usually went to bed early and she wouldn’t leave the residence at such a late hour. Besides, she
was supposed to stay in the hospital tonight to take care of Heidi, so she wouldn’t have made plans to go
out. Why would she suddenly leave?
However, at this time, he couldn’t afford to analyze so much. He casually stabbed seven silver needles
on Charmine, who went limp on the ground as her strength was sapped from her body.
She trembled a little as she questioned, “W-What have you done to me?”
He replied, “This method is called the Seven Divine Needles! There are seven silver needles that block
the seven areas on your body where your energy and blood flow the most. You can’t use any of your
energy this way. You just stay here and wait for me to come back so that we can continue playing 20
questions later!”
With that, Matthew left straight away. Behind him, Charmine shouted angrily, “Larson, come back! I won’t
let you off the hook! Now that you’ve gone up against the Orleanians, your end will definitely be
miserable…”
He simply ignored her and closed the door of the room before he walked away. She cursed for a while
and only stopped when she noticed that there was no movement outside at all. The anger on her face
disappeared in an instant before a cold smile swept across her mouth.
“What an idiot. Does he really think this method can subdue me? We Orleanians always have a few
centipedes stored inside our sleeves!”
After she muttered two words, her pocket moved slightly a few times. Soon, a tiny furry fox jumped out
from inside. This little animal was only palm-sized and it was covered in white fur. As it had big eyes, it
looked extremely cute.
Charmine lightly whistled to the little fox and it immediately straightened its ears. Then, it climbed onto
her body. With its small paws and teeth, it took a lot of effort for the animal to get a silver needle out. She
immediately felt a little more relaxed and preponderant after the item was removed. Then, she slowly
brought up her hand and pulled out another syringe, afterwhich her strength increased even more.
Soon, she removed all seven silver needles and smiled triumphantly. “How can you expect to trap me
with this little trick? Hehe, Matthew is not that powerful after all! Since he knows how to use the
centipede from Orleans, I must quickly report this to Master!”
She quietly ran over to the door. As she crouched by the door and listened for a while, she endured that
there was no movement outside before she opened the door and ran off into the darkness. However, she
did not notice that Matthew was quietly watching her in a car. Upon seeing her leave, he smiled slightly
and drove away.
At once, he rushed to The Grand Garden, where he saw a few groups of people fighting in a few alleys
next to it. It was without a doubt that they were members of the Lewis Family tussling with Tiger’s men.
Matthew ignored them and went straight back to The Grand Garden. The villa lights were still switched
on, so he quickly ran into the villa. However, he had just entered the door when he heard Demi hissing
from afar.
“Sasha, this time you should admit that Matthew is a curse to the family! Now that even Mom is about to
be killed by him, you still want to speak up for him?”
