Chapter 773

Helen was quite shocked by Sasha’s words and she immediately replied angrily, “How dare you talk backto me? You impudent child! How did you turn out this way? I’ve been talking nicely to you but all you dois talk back to me. Why are you becoming more and more like Matthew?”

Sasha felt upset as soon as she heard that. “Mom, this is between the two of us so let’s sort this outourselves; don’t drag Matthew into this! Besides, what’s wrong with him? When has he ever talked backto you or behaved disrespectfully to you? Surely, we must be fair, right? You have no right to commentabout him after everything that you’ve put him through!”

Just then, Helen felt slightly awkward. However, she retorted angrily, “Let’s not go into that. Where areyou? Go home right now and apologize to Minerva! And since Tate’s finally found a girlfriend after solong, this is a major thing and we have to be supportive! Go back and lend him your car, alright?”

Sasha was angered by Helen’s words. “Why should I apologize to her? You saw what she did to me lastnight! As for Tate, he doesn’t even have a valid driver’s license and he’s quite reckless even on hismotorcycle. What if something happens while he’s driving my car?”

“If you don’t apologize, I’ll go back and apologize on your behalf, alright?” Helen rebuked with a furioustone. “As for the car, Tate’s mentioned to me that he won’t be the one driving; it’ll be his girlfriend who’sdriving the car. Though he doesn’t have a valid driver’s license, Joanna has one. Besides, it’s a girlwho’ll be driving the car so what’s there to be worried about? Girls are usually much more careful sothere won’t be a problem at all!”

However, Sasha was even more angered by Helen’s words. “I don’t care what you want to do but I won’tapologize or lend him my car! Period!” Sasha hung up the phone with a huff. There was a furiousexpression on her face and she was just too angered by two of her ridiculous relatives.

Meanwhile, Helen hung up the phone in a huff too. “Whatever! It’s your choice not to lend the car!James, let’s head home right now and lend Tate your car!”

Upon hearing that, James wondered, What the heck? How has this got to do with me?

That night after work, Sasha and Matthew arrived home to an annoyed James sitting on the couch. Onthe other hand, Helen was comforting her niece. “Minerva, don’t get affected by Sasha. You must bequite a forgiving person after staying overseas for so long, so don’t let her words get to you! It’s not a bigdeal. Don’t be upset, alright? I’m the one who calls the shots in this house so no one can kick you out!You can just do whatever you want here and treat this as your own home. Don’t bother about the others.If someone kicks you out of here, then I’ll go along with you!” Helen said all this with a furious glare atSasha.

From Helen’s actions, it was quite likely that she would leave the house with Minerva if Sasha actuallykicked the latter out.

Meanwhile, Minerva saw Sasha walk in and her originally happy face turned solemn immediately. Then,her eyes turned red-rimmed as she sobbed while covering her face. “Aunt Helen, I really can’t stand thisanymore. I came back here intending to spend more time with you but look at how Sasha’s treated me—she told me to leave so I can’t possibly stay on any longer! Aunt Helen, if you want to meet me then whydon’t you come over to my house. I… I won’t step foot into this house anymore…” Minerva got up andtried to turn around to leave while saying that.

However, Helen hurriedly grabbed hold of her and said, “Don’t be angry, Minerva! Trust me, no one cankick you out of here. I promise!”

Upon hearing that, Minerva shook her head. “I know you love me very much, Aunt Helen, but you’re notat home all the time and once you’re gone, Sasha’s going to kick me out. Matthew is also always lookingat me quite angrily and it seems like he intends to devour me! I don’t think I’ll be able to stay in thishouse any longer. I-I’m afraid that they might even hit me someday when you’re not at home!”

Helen was furious as soon as she heard that and she banged her hand on the table hard. “MatthewLarson, come over here right now!”
