Chapter 367


    Sasha was extremely angry. “Mom, you heard what he said! Demi went over herself and nobody


    captured her! What else do you have to say now?”


    Helen looked embarrassed and she gritted her teeth. “So what? We have to look beyond the surface


    and get to the root of the problem. All of this is Matthew’s fault! If Matthew didn’t provoke Young Master


    Hughes, he wouldn’t hurt Demi even if she went over! He only kept Demi hostage because Matthew hit


    him!”


    Sasha was so furious, she grabbed the tea cup on the table and threw it to the ground before she


    roared, “All you do is put the me on Matthew! Can’t you be reasonable for once?!”


    Helen was stunned while James blew his top. “Sasha, what are you doing? Is that the right way to


    speak to your mother? How dare you throw things in anger in front of your parents? Have you lost your


    mind?”


    With tears streaming down her face, Sasha gritted her teeth and said, “What else can I do to express


    my frustration? Let me put this straight, if anything bad happens to Matthew this time, I don’t want to


    live anymore! You two can just live the rest of your lives with Demi!”


    After Sasha finished speaking, she directly went back to her room.


    James and Helen looked at each other. After a moment of silence, Helen muttered, “It’ll all be fine.


    She’ll get over it after a while.”


    James nodded in agreement. “You’re right. This child has fallen for Matthew’s tricks. Once she meets


    someone better, she’ll know our intentions are good! Oh, by the way, where is Sasha’s phone? Go and


    get her phone so that she doesn’t secretly call Matthew.”


    Helen immediately started to panic and hurriedly said, “You’re right. We should go and take her phone


    away.”


    With that, the two of them ran into Sasha’s room and took her phone away. Then, they scanned the


    room but they were still worried even after making sure there weren’t any othermunication


    devices, so they simply stayed there and kept an eye on Sasha. Sasha naturally knew what the both of


    them were thinking and she was mad. She was sick of their antics and didn’t even want to look at them,


    so she hid herself under the nket.


    Meanwhile, at Thousand Lakes Manor, after Travis heard the report from his subordinate, he grinned


    widely.


    “Excellent! Once I finish with the conference, I’ll make sure to reward you for your good work!” Travis


    said with a chuckle.


    The man was really happy to hear this and he thanked Travis repeatedly. Later, Travis led everybody to


    the Eastshire representatives’ room. At the moment, a group of people were already gathered in the


    room and they were all big shots in the state’s medical field. When they saw Travis, they got up one


    after another to greet him.


    Just then, a man in sses leaned in and asked, “Young Master Hughes, didn’t you say that Dr. Ellis is


    representing Eastshire to join thepetition? Where is he?”


    Hearing this, everybody turned to look at Travis hopefully. In fact, these wealthy men wouldn’t


    personally attend conferences like this in the past and only waited for the results. However, the news


    Published by N?v''elD/rama.Org.


    that Dr. Ellis wasing out of seclusion and joining this year’s conference had attracted a crowd


    because after all, he had a great reputation in the medical field of Eastshire. Before Dr. Ellis went to


    practice in hiding, Eastshire was often in the top three in the annual Six Southern States Medical


    Conference, but after he stopped participating, Eastshire had ranked in thest ce for several


    consecutive years, which caused everyone in the medical field of Eastshire to feel embarrassed. Now


    that Dr. Ellis hade out of hiding, everyone was naturally encouraged and confident so they rushed


    over to meet Dr. Ellis.


    Travis let out a sigh and said, “Gentlemen, Dr. Ellis won’t be representing Eastshire for the


    As soon as he finished speaking, it was as if a bomb had been dropped onto the crowd. Everybody


    was dumbfounded.


    “Why? Didn’t you say that Dr. Ellis was participating in thepetition? Why is he suddenly not


    participating?” the crowd asked in panic.


    With a helpless look on his face, Travis replied, “Gentlemen, there’s nothing I can do. Dr. Ellis was


    bewitched by a man named Matthew, but I’m not sure how. Just a moment ago, he announced that he


    would be withdrawing from thepetition at thest minute!”
