Chapter 118


    With their knees on the floor, both James and Helen implored in a croaky voice, “We’re doing this for


    your own good! Since Matthew isn’t a nice man and you can find yourself a better husband, why are


    you so insistent on keeping him?”


    Sasha urged anxiously, “Dad, Mom, please get up first before we talk!”


    “Sasha, we won’t get up until you agree to divorce him!” James said.


    “Yes, we won’t get up until you agree to divorce him and we’ll have our knees on the floor until you say


    yes! Sasha, if you are cruel enough to let us kneel down in front of you, you may say no!” Helen


    threatened.


    Sasha was panic-stricken as the sight of her parents kneeling down before her put her under immense


    pressure. After a moment of contemtion, she gritted her teeth and got down on her knees too. “Dad,


    Mom, I’ll kneel down too since the two of you refuse to get up. Let’s talk this way! However, my stance


    is still the same—I won’t divorce Matthew!”


    Both James and Helen were stunned. At first, they had intended to use this trick topel Sasha into


    divorcing Matthew but that trick no longer worked now that Sasha had gotten down on her knees too.


    After ncing at each other, James let out a sigh atst and confessed, “Sasha, to be honest…” He


    gave her an ount of the batch of defective Astragalus.


    “Sasha, your mother and I really can’t think of any other way to solve it. We only managed to get


    Cunningham Pharmaceuticals after putting in a lot of effort. If it’s destroyed in our hands, we’ll be


    condemned by the rest of the family for the rest of our lives and we might really have to kill ourselves


    by the time it happens! Now, you just need to get a divorce with Matthew and Young Master Cooper will


    settle everything. I suppose you won’t allow Cunningham Pharmaceuticals to be destroyed by this


    problem now that it’s worth up to one billion?”


    Sasha chuckled when she heard her father. “Dad, Mom, is that the thing which has been bothering the


    two of you?”


    Helen grew anxious when she heard Sasha’s tone. “Sasha, that is a very serious problem! Since the


    drugs manufactured by Cunningham Pharmaceuticals have already been released to the market,


    countless consumers out there might have already bought them! If the government finds out about this,


    it will be the end of ourpany!”


    Laughing heartily, Sasha helped her parents to their feet and said, “Dad, Mom, you guys don’t have to


    worry about anything if that’s what’s been bothering you guys.”


    Looking astonished, both of them asked, “Why’s that so?”


    “It’s because I’ve never used that batch of Astragalus to manufacture the drugs!” Sasha said.


    “Huh?” Both of them went wide-eyed with pleasant surprise written all over their face.


    “You didn’t use it? S-Seriously? Didn’t thepany just happen to be short on Astragalus?”


    With a smile, Sasha said, “Come to think of it, it’s all thanks to Matthew!” After exining what Matthew


    had done to her parents, Sasha continued with augh, “That batch of Astragalus is still in the


    storeroom now. The CCTV camera inside had been kept running right from the moment the herbs


    arrived at ourpany. This will leave no room for anyone to sabotage us with the defective herbs


    because the CCTV footage will be able to prove that we’re innocent!”


    Both James and Helen looked bbergasted because it had never urred to them that things could


    actually turn out this way.


    “R-Really?” James sounded overjoyed.


    “Of course! If you don’t believe me, I can bring you guys to the storeroomter to take a look!” Sasha


    said.


    “Terrific! That’s just terrific!” James eximed.


    Looking delighted, Helen asked, “Sasha, was this really Matthew’s idea?”


    “Of course!” Sasha said proudly. “Matthew was of the opinion that someone must have deliberately set

    up this trap in order to sabotage us. Dad, Mom, obviously it’s Francis who is trying to frame us!”


    James scratched his head and doubted, “Really? But Young Master Cooper is a nice guy. Why does he


    need to sabotage us?”


    “Hmph!” Sasha snapped with her lips pursed, “This isn’t the first time he tried to sabotage us. He was


    the mastermind who caused our business ount to be frozenst time! Bart Jenkins is his uncle!”


    “What?!” James widened his eyes in disbelief. “You must be kidding!”
