Startled, Matthew immediately helped Helen up.
Then, he looked at Sasha.
Apparently, Sasha was having second thoughts.
One could tell that Sasha was truly angry with Demi.
Even so, it was hard for her to stay mad.
Regardless of how angered she was, Demi was still her biological sister.
Meanwhile, James snapped.
"Demi, what are you doing sitting there? Get your freaking self over here and apologize to Matthew!"
Eyes red and swollen, Demi stubbornly turned her head to the side.
Enraged, James exclaimed, "I'm asking you to apologize! Did you not hear me? If you don't apologize,
I-I'll beat you to death!"
In the meantime, Helen said while crying, "Demi, why are you being so disobedient? Hurry up and
apologize to Matthew.You're truly the one at fault in these matters!"
Upon hearing that, Demi gritted her teeth.
Suddenly, she turned her head and shouted, "Yes, it's my fault! It's all my fault! But, are you two not at
fault too? I'm your daughter, and I'm also a member of the Cunningham Family! But, how did you two
treat me? Sasha is the chairman of the company, while Matthew is the boss of a construction
company.Then, what about me? What about Liam? You all live in Lakeside Garden and The Grand
Garden.Where do we live? Would I have to resort to doing such a thing if it wasn't for the mistreatment
I received from all of you?"
The words that escaped from Demis lips infuriated James even more.
"What do you mean by saying those words? Both Sasha and Matthew earned everything that they
have with their own capabilities.It's because of your own laziness and your jealousy toward them that
you ended up like this.W- What rights do you have for you to say something like this?"
Upon hearing that, Demi refuted furiously, "Yes, I'm not qualified! I'm lazy and evil.Ignore me, and don't
treat me as your daughter! Just let me die! You all don't like seeing me alive anyway!"
After finishing saying those words, Demi got up and was ready to leave.
Yet, Matthew frowned slightly and immediately stopped her.
"Demi, I know that, deep down, you've always been dissatisfied with me.To be honest, I detest you
too.However, that night, it was you who saved Sasha after all.I'm a person who knows how to
distinguish between kindness and hatred clearly.You saved Sasha, so I'll remember your kindness.You
feel that Mom and Dad didn't give you a chance, do you? Okay, I'll give you this chance now!"
Once he had finished speaking, Matthew handed over a portfolio.
"This is Felicia's company abroad.I have acquired it.So, you think you have the capability, but there are
no ways for you to show it, right? Then, what do you say you manage this company well and prove to
us your capability?"
Stunned, Demi stared blankly at the portfolio in Matthew's hand with a look of disbelief on her face.
"Are you for real?" Demi asked, her voice trembling.
Upon hearing that, Matthew answered, "The net worth of Felicia's company is less than 30 million.Do
you think there's a need for me to lie to you?"
Once again, Demi's eyes welled up with tears as she grabbed the portfolio.
Then, she took a deep look at Matthew.
"Rest assured, Matthew.I'll surely prove for all of you to see!"
Upon hearing that, Matthew chuckled.
"No, it's not proving yourself to me.It's proving yourself to Mom and Dad instead.Didn't you keep saying
that you are no less equal to Sasha? Right now, all you have to do is to make this company expand its
horizon further, and let Mom and Dad know that you're really no less than Sasha!"
Demi nodded hard.
Then, she looked at both James and Helen.
Once again, she burst into tears.
Standing next to Demi, Sasha looked at Matthew, her face shining with gratitude.
For the past two days, I've been thinking about how to deal with Demi.
Although Demi went too far this time, she's still my biological sister after ail.
Besides, she saved me, so I can't be too heartless toward her.
Matthew's approach is the best solution for the current situation.
Firstly, Demi can stay alive.
Secondly, Demi will live abroad in the future and be out of my sight! It's like killing two birds with one
stone.
