Sasha hurriedly said, "How do you know he'll lose? Stanley definitely hired several famous doctors to help Matthew. It's hard to predict who will win this competition!"

James sneered, "Which famous doctors? Could they compete with Leonard the acupuncturist from Mightwater?

Sasha, you might not know him but I do. The people who have medical skills that can be a match for Leonard are definitely famous. Even Billy Newman can't compare to him, let alone Stanley. How could they win against Leonard?"

Sasha gritted her teeth and said nothing.

Sasha angrily pulled out her phone and tossed it to Helen. "You can call him if you want to. I'll never call to ask him!"

Helen was dumbfounded. I want to make the call but will Matthew listen to me? I've humiliated him and said cruel things to him for the longest time and was never kind to him. How is it possible that he'll agree to help me?

"Sasha, are you deliberately trying to not save your sister?! Do you think that ingrate will listen to me? I've fed him for three years but he isn't even thankful. How am I supposed to ask him for help?" Helen roared.

Sasha was also infuriated. "You're too embarrassed to call him, aren't you? Mom, if you had treated Matthew well, we wouldn't be in this mess! Are you finally showing remorse?" Helen was furious. "Sasha, don't tell me all this nonsense. Just be straightforward and tell me, are you going to save your sister or not? If you don't want to save her, just say it.

I'll take the responsibility for being such a bad mother that even my daughter won't listen to me. There's no reason for me to live anymore. I... I should just run into the wall and die..."

As she spoke, Helen directly lowered her head and rushed to the wall at the side, as if she was really about to hit her head on the wall. Fortunately, James was quick to react and he stopped her in time. "Oh, dear, you shouldn't do such silly things! Sasha is an obedient daughter so of course she will help us. Don't hurt yourself!" James said to purposely pressure Sasha.

Sasha was about to go mad. Her parents always used the same excuse to cause trouble for her. As long as she didn't do what they said, the both of them would cry and beg to force her to bend to their will. "Mom, can't you be reasonable?! How could we ask Matthew to sacrifice everything to save Demi? Look into your conscience and tell me, since when has Demi ever said anything kind to Matthew? Has she ever done that? Has she ever done anything nice for Matthew?" Sasha said in panic.

Helen fell into silence but James roared angrily, "Sasha, what is the point of saying this? Do you think that your sister deserves death for not saying anything kind to Matthew?

Sasha, I know you have always sided Matthew but I never thought that you could be so cruel to abandon your sister. Fine, since you're so cruel, we'll just pretend that we never gave birth to you and raised you. You can leave.

This is my family's personal matter so we don't need your help. Darling, let's go. We're both old and not capable anymore so our child won't even listen to us. There's no reason for us to live anymore. Let's jump off the building together. At least Demi will have us to accompany her in death!"

As James spoke, he dragged Helen toward the windowsill. Helen wailed and yelled, "Why is my life so miserable? Why did I give birth to such an unfilial daughter? Forget it, it's my fault for not educating my child. I deserve to die..." She howled like a shrew as she sat on the ground.
