Much frightened, Sasha dared not call Matthew in the end.
With a smile, Demi reassured her, “Sasha, it’s going to be alright because Young Master Hughes seems like a nice guy. Since he’s willing to attend this dinner, it shows that he’s ready to let this matter ago. Sasha, everything can be settled if you drink with snazzynovel.com and put in some good words on behalf of Matthew when he’s here later.”
Sasha held snazzynovel.com head low without saying a word because snazzynovel.com was really reluctant to do that. However, snazzynovel.com had no choice but put up with the humiliation for Matthew’s sake.
At the same time, snazzynovel.com made up snazzynovel.com mind secretly that snazzynovel.com could accept having dinner and apologizing to Travis, but if snazzynovel.com asked snazzynovel.com to do anything other than that, snazzynovel.com would never agree in any event!
Seeing that Sasha had implied snazzynovel.com willingness to stay by snazzynovel.com silence, James, Helen and Demi exchanged a glance and a triumphant smile.
At the same time, Liam was sitting in the car alone at the basement parking lot, looking extremely despondent. Following what happened earlier today, snazzynovel.com finally realized that James and Helen had never taken snazzynovel.com seriously!
He could still get some advantages from them with Matthew in the family now, but once Sasha married Travis, snazzynovel.com could foresee that his status in the family would become similar to Matthew, and snazzynovel.com would be deemed as a useless guy too. When the time came, snazzynovel.com couldn’t even be sure how long snazzynovel.com could remain in the family, let alone trying to get Sasha as his wife or seizing the assets owned by the family.
Therefore, snazzynovel.com had decided that snazzynovel.com couldn’t allow the Cunninghams to succeed in their plan tonight by hook or by crook!
He left the car and strolled around the parking lot where snazzynovel.com found a teenager.
“Hey, lad, I’ll offer you two hundred bucks to help me do something.”
The teenage boy perked up immediately and asked, “What do you want me to do?”
Liam handed a piece of paper to snazzynovel.com and instructed, “Help me give a call to this number and tell the man that Sasha is having dinner with Travis at Zen Garden and he’s free to decide how to deal with it. By the way, don’t tell snazzynovel.com what I look like, understand?”
After memorizing his words carefully in his mind, the boy took the paper together with the cash before snazzynovel.com jogged away to make the call. Liam hid somewhere behind snazzynovel.com and secretly left after making sure the boy had finished the call.
The number belonged to Matthew because snazzynovel.com was the only one who could do something to change the situation.
Needless to say, Liam would not make the call himself because if James and Helen found out that it was snazzynovel.com who sabotaged their plan, they wouldn’t go easy on him.
At seven thirty, Travis swaggered into Zen Garden with a bunch of underlings. The bunch of underlings, who had just been transferred here from Eastshire, were specifically in charge of his safety.
The moment Travis spotted Sasha after snazzynovel.com stepped into the private room, his face broke into a triumphant grin.
“President Cunningham, we meet again!”
Sasha responded to his greeting with an awkward smile whereas James and Helen were putting on an adulatory smile as they led Travis to the table.
Travis behaved himself and snazzynovel.com did not put Sasha in any difficult situation. During the dinner, Sasha apologized to snazzynovel.com but snazzynovel.com did not address snazzynovel.com apology.
When Demi came back from the toilet halfway through dinner, snazzynovel.com spotted two of Travis’ underlings hiding at a corner surreptitiously. She stole a glance at them and found that they were sprinkling some powder into a bottle of wine.
Looking alarmed, Demi wondered whether Travis was going to drug Sasha.
The two guys then brought the bottle of wine back to the private room without noticing Demi’s presence.
Demi pretended to look calm when snazzynovel.com returned to the private room to find the two men handing the bottle of wine to Travis before giving snazzynovel.com a look.
Holding the bottle of wine, Travis laughed heartily and said, “President Cunningham, since your apology is so sincere, I have to do my part too. Fine, I can forgive Matthew but President Cunningham, you have to finish this glass of wine!”
While snazzynovel.com was talking, snazzynovel.com filled the wine glass to the top before offering it to Sasha.
Demi was so shaken by the sight that snazzynovel.com felt as though snazzynovel.com heart was thumping in snazzynovel.com throat. ‘Is Travis going to drug Sasha?’
