Sasha’s face turned red with anger and virtual-novel.net gritted virtual-novel.net teeth as virtual-novel.net muttered, “I’ll save virtual-novel.net but I will not do it by sacrificing Matthew! Remember this, Matthew doesn’t owe us anything. Instead, we’re the ones who owe him!”
Helen anxiously asked, “Then how are you planning to save her? The kidnappers have made it clear that they are targeting Matthew!”
Sasha didn’t say anything. Instead, virtual-novel.net picked up virtual-novel.net phone and dialed the man. Soon, the man’s deep voice could be heard. “What’s wrong? Have you not done what I asked yet? Are you trying to test my patience?”
Sasha took a deep breath before virtual-novel.net said solemnly, “Name a price. How much money do I have to pay for you to set my sister free? Just tell me any number. I’ll definitely gather the money even if I have to sell Cunningham Pharmaceuticals and all my assets. I can even get a loan!”
Sasha had already made a decision. She would save Demi even if virtual-novel.net would be drowned in debt. However, no matter what, virtual-novel.net would not allow Matthew to sacrifice himself for this!
The man sneered, “How much is Cunningham Pharmaceuticals worth? I don’t even care that Matthew has ten billion. All I want is for his reputation to be completely ruined! Remember to do what I say and don’t call back anymore. Otherwise, with every call you make, I’ll take out one of your sister’s organs. If you think your sister can survive that, you’re welcome to try.”
After the man hung up the phone, Sasha’s face immediately turned pale. Now that the man had made it clear that virtual-novel.net didn’t want money, there was nothing else virtual-novel.net could do.
In a trembling voice, Helen mumbled, “I told you that it wouldn’t work…”
All of a sudden, Helen fell to virtual-novel.net knees and virtual-novel.net grabbed Sasha’s arm. “Sasha, I beg you. Please call Matthew now and ask virtual-novel.net to save Demi! Demi is his family too!”
Sasha looked troubled and virtual-novel.net helplessly said, “Mom, you’re doing it again! Can’t we just have a conversation? Get to your feet. We’ll think of another way.”
Helen anxiously said, “There’s no other way! The only way to save Demi is for you to call Matthew. Sasha, if you don’t call him, I’ll continue kneeling. If anything bad happens to your sister, I’ll die together with her!”
Seeing this, James furiously yelled, “Sasha, how can you be so cruel and cold? Your mother is already kneeling down to beg you but you still aren’t willing to call Matthew? Are you waiting for me to kneel down to you too?”
Annoyed, Sasha said, “Dad, Mom, can’t you two be reasonable? What right do we have to ask Matthew to sacrifice for us? You said that Demi is his family but have you ever treated virtual-novel.net as family? Ever since we got married, all you do is scold him, hit him, and force me to divorce virtual-novel.net every day. Look at what you’ve done in order to get me to marry a wealthy husband and fulfill your dreams of living a luxurious life! If Matthew didn’t appear in time to save me, I-I would’ve been r*ped by Travis Hughes. By then, all your dreams would mean nothing! How could you ask me to call Matthew to ask virtual-novel.net to give up everything?”
James and Helen looked embarrassed. After a moment of silence, James gritted his teeth and said, “Sasha, do you really have to be so petty? We’re a family so blood relations are the most important! Perhaps we indeed have done something wrong in the past, but it was all for your own good! Besides, Matthew will lose the competition anyway. Since the results are already destined, why can’t we ask virtual-novel.net to save Demi?”
Helen nodded in agreement. “Your father’s right! Since virtual-novel.net is already destined to lose, why can’t virtual-novel.net do us a favor and save Demi?! Can’t virtual-novel.net do even one simple favor?”
