Matthew said nothing as he regarded Helen with an icy look.

Tiger, on the other hand, was quick to lash out at her. “You shameless old hag! The audacity of you to beg Mr. Matthew Larson to save your daughter when you don’t even know half of the things she and her husband have done!”

A strangled cry escaped Helen as she flinched at the abuse thrown her way, but she tried to argue nonetheless. “I know they weren’t too happy with Matthew, and I can’t deny that they’ve done some horrible things to him, but it doesn’t mean they deserve to die! We’re still family at the end of the day, and blood runs thicker than water. Bickering is part of family life!”

“Stop with the bullsh*t! Of course families fight, but these two imbeciles not only poisoned Mr. Matthew Larson’s food, they also staged the car crash so they could kill him. Who in their right mind would call this normal family bickering?”

James and Helen gaped at him, dumbfounded upon hearing this information. The former pressed incredulously, “A-Are you joking, Master Tiger? Liam and Demi are far too kind to do such hideous acts—”

“Kind? Don’t be ridiculous!” Tiger snapped, cutting him off halfway. “Why don’t you ask White or the couple of insolent fools here what Liam and Demi have done? In fact, White was the one who had given them the poison in the first place!”

Upon hearing this, James turned to shoot looks of disbelief at Gordon and the others, all of whom began to fidget awkwardly. Gordon, in particular, looked distinctly uneasy as he stammered, “I-I have nothing to do with this! This was all White’s idea! He was the one who promised Demi and Liam a huge sum of money and a company of their own if they helped him. The rest of us didn’t say anything to them!”
