Take My Breath Away

Fanya, far from her usual calm self, was fidgeting restlessly in her seat.

Their youngest daughter had offended Matthew. Now that the truth was out, Lyman and Fanya wished they had never had this daughter.

"Mr. Su," Matthew called out abruptly.

Lyman held his breath. He was clearly scared out of his wits. "Yes, Mr. Huo?"

The young man asked with a murderous chill in his voice, "What do you think I should do to your daughter?"

"Well, since Tessie is guilty, you have every right to deal with her as you see fit. I won't get in your way, Mr. Huo." Lyman cared only about saving his own neck. The disgraceful man was mainly worried about whether Tessie's actions would get him into trouble with Matthew.

Tessie, somewhat knew her father to be a heartless man who cared for nothing else in the world apart from himself, but when she heard those words come out of his mouth, she burst into tears.

Why? Why was she born into such a family? No wonder Tessie fostered so much hatred and jealousy in her heart for Erica and even her own sister, Camille Su.

Meanwhile, afraid that Tessie would implicate her too, Phoebe stood there frozen, wishing she could vanish into thin air.

Like everybody else, she only found out today that the illegitimate child she had cursed turned out to be Tessie's child with another man.

A blush of embarrassment heated Phoebe's cheeks and she looked down to avert Erica's eyes.

On the other hand, Camille, the Su family's eldest daughter, remained seated next to Fanya, staring at the arrogant and powerful man on the sofa.

'Phoebe is such an idiot. Even if she listened to Matthew and married Nathan, she still didn't get any benefit from Matthew. In the end, the man she loved so much ended up getting married to another woman. Why do I have two stupid sisters?' Camille sneered in her mind.

"Okay, Mr. Su." Matthew shifted his gaze to Lenora, whose face had been beaten to a pulp by Julianna, and asked, "Who invited my wife to the No. Eighteen Primary School yesterday?" There was no emotion in his voice.

Lenora wasted no time and pointed at the girl beside her. "It was Julianna's idea!"

Julianna was afraid of what Matthew would do to her. Immediately, she denied, "It wasn't me. Tessie gave me the idea!"

Tessie's eyes widened in shock. "No, she said she wanted to teach Erica a lesson." Then she turned to Phoebe for help. H

, "I need to ask my parents about that first. If they say no, you can't take Ethan away."

Tam had no choice but to nod his head. "I see. Thank you!"

On the way back home from the Su family's residence, Erica's eyes were stuck staring out the window, deeply contemplating something in silence.

Although she hated Tessie with all her heart, she didn't want Matthew to send her to live in the slums. In the end, Erica softened her heart.

"Matthew," she called out.

"Yes?"

"How about we just force Tessie out of Y City and forbid her from ever coming back again? As for where she goes, let her choose." Erica had to think about Ethan. What if he wanted to find his biological mother when he grew up? If Ethan were to find his mother in a slum, he would be heartbroken.

This was her last act of mercy towards Tessie.

Having realized that Erica was being merciful, Matthew said, "As you wish."

The man's compliance gave her a sense of relief.

Suddenly, Matthew's phone rang. The caller's voice could be heard loud and clear inside the car. It was Owen. "Mr. Huo, Lenora Wang has set out. I have sent two people to watch her and make sure she doesn't escape."

"Okay, I know. Also, don't forget to send reporters to interview Tessie and Julianna. Ask them to apologize to Mrs. Huo and clarify everything in front of the cameras."

"Yes, Mr. Huo!"

After he hung up the phone, Erica sat up straight and said, "Where have you sent Lenora?"

The man swallowed and answered, "In a cave in some primeval forest of a deserted area." Matthew had found the best cave for Lenora.
