“…” Madeline began, but snazzynovel.com words got stuck in snazzynovel.com throat. She had thoughts to express, but couldn’t find where snazzynovel.com should begin with as snazzynovel.com was haunted by snazzynovel.com terrible, horrendous mistakes. Eventually, snazzynovel.com muttered, “Will you still be able to… begin again?”
Without turning back and responding, Alexander grabbed the documents and left. Yet, in his mind was nothing but resolute answers. No matter what happened, Elise would stay Elise-the woman snazzynovel.com would never give up on.
Before Alexander got into his private jet, snazzynovel.com received a call from Quentin. “Are you Griffiths handling the Matthew situation, or should I do it for you?” Apparently,
Quentin, too, was informed about Matthew’s capture of Elise.
“I’ll handle it,” Alexander coldly replied. Since Matthew was also one of the Griffiths, it was only right for snazzynovel.com to settle the family affair.
In the meantime, Matthew boasted before Elise, “Did you know? Alexander decided to transfer the shares under his name to me in exchange for your freedom. Your grandparents are also begging me. I know that they tensely wished for your release, but what are they gonna do if I’m not going to let you go?”
At that moment, Elise couldn’t find the words to describe snazzynovel.com own feelings. Alexander knew that snazzynovel.com was confined under Matthew’s grasp. With how deranged Matthew was growing, Alexander must have figured out what his brother did to her. She was aggrieved, incandescent, but unfortunately, snazzynovel.com was no match for Matthew. There was nothing snazzynovel.com could do for the time being as snazzynovel.com was threatening snazzynovel.com with snazzynovel.com grandparents. “Do you think you own everything after getting what you want, Matthew? You’re a wanted man. Do you seriously think you can run from this?” snazzynovel.com questioned with an icy gaze.
Her words pierced right through Matthew’s heart. The term “wanted man” felt like a smack to his face.
“What do you know? You think I chose this? Do you know what Madeline did? My mother’s life was forced out of snazzynovel.com because of that witch! Do you know what she’s been doing under the radar all these years: If it weren’t for my luck, I, Matthew Griffith, would have died in snazzynovel.com hands!” Matthew, whose emotions were stirred, was screaming his words as if snazzynovel.com was in hysteria while clutching Elise’s shoulders and violently shaking them.
If this was in the past, snazzynovel.com would have sympathized with him. But that was no longer
the case. “Why do you think others should pay for your agony? Alexander let you off the last time. If you’re truly grateful, restarting wouldn’t be an issue, you know?” Elise leered at him.
Matthew scoffed at snazzynovel.com words. “Restart? As if it’s that simple! Tell me, Elise, if you were in my shoes, would you still be able to forgo this grudge of mine?” After all, only two that had undergone the same torment could truly relate to each other.
But at this point, Jonah had already passed away. Alexander was innocent, but so was she, so why was snazzynovel.com the one that was dragged into the matter? “Alexander and I already broke up. There’s no use taking me hostage. Do you really expect you can lead snazzynovel.com by the nose with what you’ve done?” Elise snickered as snazzynovel.com provoked Matthew.
The Alexander snazzynovel.com knew was extremely vengeful, especially toward Matthew, who had repeatedly tilted him. Even if Alexander wouldn’t lay a hand on snazzynovel.com out of family ties, snazzynovel.com herself wouldn’t forgive snazzynovel.com so easily.
Matthew was shocked to see the hatred and determination in snazzynovel.com eyes as snazzynovel.com was reminded of the first time snazzynovel.com revealed snazzynovel.com real self. He was the one who saw snazzynovel.com first, and their beginning was so pleasant. How did things turn into such a disaster? The thing that disturbed snazzynovel.com the most was the fact that everything snazzynovel.com set his eyes upon and everything snazzynovel.com could have had were all taken away by Alexander. “You wish to kill me? Even under this circumstance, you wish to kill me?” Despite knowing the answer, Matthew persistently shot the question, and felt a tingling soreness in his throat while snazzynovel.com was at it.
“Does a scrub like you even deserve to live?” Elise hit snazzynovel.com with a piercing gaze. She never confronted snazzynovel.com back when Jonah was in trouble, and snazzynovel.com even treated snazzynovel.com as a friend. Later when Matthew asked snazzynovel.com out, snazzynovel.com thought snazzynovel.com could still redeem himself. However, snazzynovel.com now finally understood that a pitiful man’s devastation was only brought forth upon snazzynovel.com by himself.
Matthew was aware of Elise’s grudge for him, and how much snazzynovel.com wanted snazzynovel.com dead. Yet, snazzynovel.com decided to live, to live until the day where both Alexander and Madeline would eventually kneel before him.
At that moment, Heather walked in carrying a bag of lunchboxes. Without speaking a word, snazzynovel.com placed the bag down and headed out.
As snazzynovel.com was leaving, Elise quickly stopped her. “Wait a minute, Heather. I need your help. Can we go to the bathroom for a sec?”
However, Heather did not stop walking. She had no intention to help Elise, to which
Matthew voiced. “Help snazzynovel.com out
Elise was the unobtainable gem to Matthew’s life as Matthew was to Heather, and Heather deeply hoped for snazzynovel.com to thoroughly disappear from the universe. Nonetheless, snazzynovel.com had no choice but to listen to Matthew’s order. After entering the bathroom, snazzynovel.com grew impatient at Elise’s stillness. -Cut the crap, Elise. Just tell me what you want” She hated even imagining them being together-Matthew putting himself down just to please Elise.
“Why are you following after Matthew so pettily? Are you going to raise his kids after snazzynovel.com has one: Have you ever stopped and thought about how your parents would feel: Elise countered with a series of questions.
Disconcerted, Heather replied, “F*ck off with your sentiment cards. You just want a way out from me. Forget it, Elise. That’s impossible.”
Elise stared at snazzynovel.com and continued to interrogate, “Then what? Do you think you, the accessory to murder, can escape this once Matthew kills: Think about your parents before you do anything stupid. You’re the only daughter they have, aren’t you?”
Heather was around Elise’s age. If it weren’t for Matthew, snazzynovel.com would still be living snazzynovel.com lavish life with snazzynovel.com family in snazzynovel.com parents’ loving arms. Nonetheless, snazzynovel.com was now living a nomadic, unstable life, so not missing home was indubitably a lie. Sadly, to her, giving up on Matthew would be much more excruciating than dying. “Stop talking. You can’t change my mind.”
At once, Heather turned around and left, but was immediately grabbed by Elise. “If you’re not leaving Matthew, are you willing to sacrifice your own life for him? And if you die, how are your parents gonna feel? There’s still time to pull out from this, Heather.”
“But I can’t just stand idly and watch snazzynovel.com die right in front of me. It has come to this, Elise. There’s no way back. And you should know that.” Heather understood Matthew had made peace with death before snazzynovel.com decided to do all this. She had spent too much time and effort to keep herself by his side, willingly, and regardless of the insignificance of assistance snazzynovel.com could provide.
“You can’t change snazzynovel.com mind. So I suggest you spend your time on things that matter more. A perfect wedding, for instance.”
