"Hey, what are you laughing at? Be serious! Ten-hut!" Gifford commanded. 'Is Chantel not afraid of me either, just like Rika?' he wondered in confusion.
Upon hearing this, Chantel stopped smiling and stood straight with her back against the wall.
"What did you do after you met with Rika?" Gifford continued after a brief pause.
Looking him in the eye, Chantel answered honestly, "Oh, we went to eat wontons. Afterwards we booked a hotel room and went straight to bed."
Gifford remembered that the two girls didn't know each other's identity until he entered the room just now. "Are you telling me that you two strangers went to eat wontons together? And then shared a hotel room?" he asked, raising his eyebrows. 'Is Erica a fool or is Chantel too bold?' he thought to himself.
Chantel immediately shrank back in fear, frightened by the anger in his tone. "Erica is not a bad person."
"I know she is not a bad person. It's just that she has an innate ability to get herself into trouble. I don't want you hanging around with her in the future. She's a bad influence; stay away from her!" As the saying went, "One who has been in the company of wolves will learn to howl." He didn't want Chantel to follow Erica's bad examples.
Chantel, however, felt differently. "Although Erica is a little naughty, she is kind-hearted and generous from the bottom of her heart."
Gifford looked up at her and snorted in laughter. "Wow, you've only known each other for a few hours. I can't believe that you are actually defending her already! What did Rika do to you to make you side with her? Tell me the truth! What did she tell you in the bathroom just now?"
"Well...she told me to take good care of her parents after I go back to A Country. Then we exchanged our contact information. That's all." Chantel decided not to tell Gifford what she was planning on her mind.
If Gifford could be fooled like this, his title of the God of Warriors would be a complete waste. "If you don't tell me, I will..."
Crack! Suddenly, the door burst open.
Chantal's face almost instantly formed a frown when she saw Erica come out. "Rika, please tell your brother what you told me in the bathroom earlier. Tell him that you wanted me to take good care of Uncle Wesley and Aunt Blair! Your brother doesn't believe me..."
Erica was afraid that Chantel was being bullied by her brother, so she immediately stood in front of her as if to protect her. "Gifford, I'm not blaming you, but there's a reason why you never have a girlfriend. Why do you have to know every little secret between us girls? If you keep acting like this and refuse to be tender to a woman, you won't be able to find a wife in the future."
Gifford was stunned speechless. The people he brought with him couldn't help snickering. Trembling with anger, he roared, "Rika, are you looking for trouble?"
When Erica realized that Gifford was about to explode in anger, she shrank back as well, like a coward. She quickly hid behind Matthew and said, "I have a backer now. Don't ever try to bully me again! Matthew is my backer and I'm Chantel's backer. If you want to get to me, you have to knock Matthew down first."
Matthew looked at Erica with stunned disbelief.
Gifford didn't want to waste time arguing with the two girls, so he pulled out the girl behind Erica.
When the girls saw him approaching, they screamed at the top of their lungs.
All the while, Matthew indifferently watched this scene play out like a movie as he realized how Erica always managed to make everything livelier around her.
Gifford, on the other hand, was on the verge of breaking down. He had simply pulled Chantel away from behind Erica's back. What did they yell in the middle of the night? "Shut up, both of you!"
he demanded in a cold voice. The two girls shut up immediately.
With a livid face, he glared at Erica and shouted, "Why were you yelling? Can't you see that others are resting? Hurry up and leave with Matthew. It's already quite late! Chantel needs to rest here. I'll send her back to A Country tomorrow morning!"
'I thought he was going to beat me and Chantel, ' Erica thought, breathing a sigh of relief. She simply nodded, turned around and held Matthew's arm. "Matthew, let's get out of here for now," she said in a soft voice.
The man glanced at the cheeky woman, nodded at Gifford and said, "Gifford, we're going back!"
Gifford waved his hand at them and said, "Okay, Matthew. I'm sorry Rika caused so much trouble for you. If she carries on like this, please do teach her a lesson!"
No one knew better than Wesley and Gifford how difficult Erica was to deal with.
Erica stared at her brother with her eyes wide open. "Gifford, are you my brother or not? How can you betray me like this?"
Weren't brothers supposed to be more caring towards their younger sister? Why was it different when it came to her? 'It seems that in Gifford's mind only Yvette is his sister. Oh, my heart aches.' Erica was crestfallen.
This time, Gifford just smiled and said nothing. Erica could see the warning in his smile.
'I must cut off my relationship with the Li family!' she thought to herself with determination.
'Dad always calls me crazy. Mom grabs me by the ear whenever she's mad at me. Gifford just asked Matthew to teach me a lesson. Only Yvette is nice to me. I really miss her so much.'
However, looking at the man who was holding her hand, Erica smiled through tears. 'It doesn't matter. I have a husband who is good to me.' She raised her head proudly and said, "Matthew, I have a favor to ask of you."
Unexpectedly, the man refused without hesitation. "No, you don't"
"But, honey..." For her brother's lifelong happiness, Erica would risk everything!
'See how I treat Gifford and how he treats me? Alas, I really envy him for having such a good sister, ' she thought.
Thinking of this, she quickened her pace and held the man's arm intimately. "Honey, could you please do me a favor?"
The man remained silent.
"Honey! Dear Matthew..."
This time, Matthew stopped and gave Erica, who was smiling fawningly, a cold stare. "Erica, every time you have a favor to ask of me, you call me 'honey' and 'dear Matthew, ' but you never call me like that when you don't. You're such a hypocrite."
'He figured it out!' The smile on Erica's face froze. "I know I was wrong, but it's not my fault. I just want to have a good sleep. That's all..." In the end, Erica felt very wronged.
Ever since Matthew had sex with her for the first time, she had been living a miserable life.
Night and day, he would have sex with her non-stop. In fact, she was starting to wonder whether she was just a breeding tool for Matthew.
Thinking of the marks on her body she had just shown him, Matthew pinched his eyebrows and said, "I can help you this time, but only this time. Do you want to plead for yourself or something else?"
Erica glanced at the man and finally made a righteous decision—she would do something to help her brother. "Can you find me a certain kind of medicine? It's the kind of medicine that..." She whispered something in Matthew's ear for a while and then solemnly emphasized, "Even if she is pregnant, the medicine won't affect the baby."
Matthew was stunned. "You want to use it?" Matthew wondered why Erica would have to use that kind of medicine at all.
"Of course not! It's for my brother! He's already over 30 years old, but he doesn't have a girlfriend yet. I need to do something to help before it's too late!" Erica was very distressed. What if Gifford was unable to find a wife in his lifetime? Gifford had always been good to her. Now that his marriage was at stake, as his sister, Erica felt obligated to help him out.
