The louder Matthew laughed, the more desolate Elise felt deep down. She really never thought snazzynovel.com would fall into Matthew’s hands. Having seen the extreme lengths Madeline had gone to, snazzynovel.com couldn’t see a happy ending for snazzynovel.com and Alexander. And now, Matthew’s sudden appearance cut off everything between snazzynovel.com and Alexander right away. She might have been grateful to snazzynovel.com if snazzynovel.com had done this in another way, but now… She clenched snazzynovel.com teeth while glaring at snazzynovel.com with bloodshot eyes. “Don’t get ahead of yourself, Matthew! I’ll never compromise, even if it means that I’ll have to die with you!”
The stronger the hatred in snazzynovel.com eyes was, the more determined snazzynovel.com was to go against him. Matthew felt a sudden twinge in his chest when snazzynovel.com saw Elise like this. He really didn’t want his relationship with Elise to come to such an extent, for snazzynovel.com also wanted snazzynovel.com to look at snazzynovel.com with snazzynovel.com heart full of joy and anticipation and snazzynovel.com eyes full of tenderness like when snazzynovel.com looked at Alexander.
“Elise, don’t forget that I’m now driven into a corner by Alexander. I am willing to do anything. You don’t care about it, but what about your grandparents? And what about the Sinclair Family’s reputation, huh?” He seized Elise by the throat, but snazzynovel.com didn’t tighten his grip. However, Matthew’s words made Elise unable to breathe.
He’s right. Everything snazzynovel.com said is true. How can I not care about Grandpa and Grandma? she thought. “Matthew, I’ll definitely send you to jail myself!” She clenched snazzynovel.com fists. The next instant, however, Matthew threw snazzynovel.com to the wall and laughed. “In that case, you’re really cruel. How could you want me to die? A day together as husband and wife means endless devotion for the rest of your life, no? Would you treat Alexander like this if snazzynovel.com were the one you slept with?” Nobody would’ve gotten hurt if there was no comparison made. Elise turned snazzynovel.com head away since snazzynovel.com didn’t want to waste snazzynovel.com breath arguing with Matthew.
It’s not worth wasting my breath on another word when we can’t see eye to eye! Then, Matthew said, “Just stay here for the next few days, Elise. Before you do anything, think about whether you can do it or not and what the consequences will be if you do it.” With that, snazzynovel.com let go of Elise. He did what snazzynovel.com said, leaving Elise alone in the room. Elise wanted to make a bolt for the door, but Matthew shoved snazzynovel.com back into the room. Elise was inwardly furious when snazzynovel.com saw the door being closed. Instead of pounding the door or yelling, snazzynovel.com went to check the window and the balcony.
Good Lord, snazzynovel.com thought. The window had security grilles installed, and there was no balcony. Moreover, snazzynovel.com was on one of the higher floors, so it was quite impossible for snazzynovel.com to call for help. She couldn’t get through to anyone using the fixed-line telephone, and snazzynovel.com cell phone was missing.
Now that snazzynovel.com was locked in this room by Matthew, snazzynovel.com had nowhere to turn for help. However, snazzynovel.com wasn’t discouraged. Instead, snazzynovel.com began thinking about a countermeasure. Meanwhile, Matthew discovered Heather as soon as snazzynovel.com came out. Seeing that snazzynovel.com was unable to hide in time, snazzynovel.com immediately understood everything.
“You’d better go back to your parents, Heather. Otherwise, it’ll really be too late for everything.” Heather looked up at him, snazzynovel.com eyes full of anxiety. “Then what are you gonna do?” Matthew pursed his lips and thought about it for a long time. “I’m going to the Sinclairs to ask for Elise’s hand in marriage.” Matthew’s serious about it. Once snazzynovel.com goes to the Sinclair Family and embarks on this path, there’ll be no turning back. If I leave him, he’ll really be all alone, thought Heather. “No, I’m not leaving!” She hugged Matthew while shaking snazzynovel.com head desperately. “If I leave you, Matthew, you’ll be alone. Who’s gonna help you then? I’ve been yours from the moment I gave myself to you. Even if I die, I’ll die beside you!”
Heather was firm in snazzynovel.com stand, but snazzynovel.com words made Matthew’s heart ache. He knew about Heather’s feelings for him, but snazzynovel.com couldn’t reciprocate snazzynovel.com feelings since snazzynovel.com had lost his heart to Elise. “I’m sorry, Heather…” Feeling a lump in his throat, snazzynovel.com prised Heather’s hands away from him. I shouldn’t have made that move that night! “It had nothing to do with you since I did it of my own accord. Matthew, no matter what you’re gonna do, please let me stay beside you. If you’re going to the Sinclairs, I’ll help keep an eye on Elise!” suggested Heather. Matthew pressed his lips together, but snazzynovel.com nodded in the end.
As Heather had said, snazzynovel.com had no one else at his beck and call other than snazzynovel.com at present. … Robin and Laura were surprised by Matthew’s visit. They knew how Matthew had hurt Elise last time, but they didn’t expect snazzynovel.com to come to their home directly. Robin angrily accused snazzynovel.com for being ungrateful, saying, “What are you doing here? You shouldn’t have come here if you knew to be grateful!” However, Matthew took out his cell phone right away and showed the pictures of Elise being together with him. Robin flew into a rage upon seeing the pictures.
He immediately tried to snatch Matthew’s cell phone, but how could he, an old man, be a match for Matthew? Moreover, Matthew came well prepared, so snazzynovel.com wouldn’t let Robin have his way, of course. Putting away his cell phone, snazzynovel.com said right away, “As you can see, Elise is now mine. I’m here this time to fix the date of our wedding with you directly.” Trembling with rage, Robin took the walking stick in his hand to hit Matthew. Matthew took the hit without dodging it. Then, snazzynovel.com pursed his lips and uttered, “It’s useless for you two to be angry now that what’s done is done.
She’s now the only person I can count on to turn things around. Marry snazzynovel.com to me and help me finish off Alexander and Madeline. Otherwise, I’ll make these pictures public.” Well, I’m a despicable rat in Elise’s eyes, but who cares? I don’t mind being despicable as long as I can get my hands on snazzynovel.com and be together with her. It’s fine as long as we’ll be happy together in the future. “That’s bullshit! How can I possibly marry Elise to a despicable rat like you?” Laura got emotional as well, and snazzynovel.com lunged at Matthew. “Where did you take my Elise? Give snazzynovel.com back to me!” She slapped snazzynovel.com twice across the face.
Matthew didn’t dodge snazzynovel.com slaps either. “What’s done can’t be undone no matter how you two hit or scold me. You know me and my current situation; I can stop at nothing to get what I want. Let me ask you one last time: are you two gonna help me?” He held up his cell phone as snazzynovel.com uttered the words coldly through thin lips. He only meant his words as a notice and a threat. Elise wouldn’t have allowed it if snazzynovel.com had seen the scene. But what else could Robin and Laura do?
After all, they couldn’t let Matthew destroy snazzynovel.com by publishing these pictures. In the end, they gave in. “Alright. As long as you bring Elise back, we’ll let Elise marry you and help you get everything you want.” Matthew knew it was a sin to do so, but what else could snazzynovel.com do? He could never forget his mother’s death, as well as how Madeline had ostracized and ridiculed snazzynovel.com over the years. He was also a member of the Griffith Family, so why should snazzynovel.com be disrespected?
“I’ll bring Elise back to you three days later, but you two must have our marriage certificate prepared by then. I know it’s not difficult for you two to do so.” Laura didn’t expect Matthew to make so many demands, so snazzynovel.com disagreed, of course. “You… Don’t push your luck, Matthew!” However, Matthew then showed the video on his cell phone with a laugh…
