Chapter 1748


    As he spoke, Tiger''s eyes turned ice-cold. His expression became hideous as he raised his dagger


    fiercely. Just by looking at that posture, Julian knew that Tiger was going to kill him this time for sure!


    He was so scared that he almost peed himself, so he quickly begged for mercy. "Dr. Larson, please


    forgive me! I swear I won''t do that anymore. Just, please! Please spare my life! I''m just a junior. It won''t


    benefit you even if you kill me."


    Matthew smirked because he knew that Julian finally took the bait. "Oh, so now you don''t want to die? I


    can spare your life so long as you answer our questions obediently."


    Julian''s face paled, for he knew well that the questions Matthew was going to ask would not be simple.


    However, he also knew that if he did not answer them, he would die on the spot. So, he could only


    agree to Matthew''s terms with a nod in the end.


    Matthew waved his hand and asked Tiger and hisckeys to bring Julian and the others to separate


    rooms for questioning, lest these people lied. Matthew himself stayed in this room and sat down slowly.


    There were not many people left in the room—just those from the Thatcher Family and Adeline.


    Adeline was shaking all over uncontrobly. She knew that it was finally time to face her trial. Looking


    at Matthew sitting next to her, she felt extremely regretful.


    She thought about the time when she first met Matthew. At that time, had she agreed to work at


    Matthew''s pharmacy, she would have long since be his aide, and her status in Eastshire would


    have risen sharply.


    However, she had looked down on him and did not take him seriously, and because of that, she had

    missed the chance. And because she had missed such a golden opportunity, she felt insulted and


    wanted to grab this chance to prove her ability.


    Adeline hooked up with Julian and disregarded her dignity. She initially thought she could improve the


    status of the Thatcher Family if she helped Julian and that she could continue to be ted. Never in a


    million years would she dream of such a result.


    She did not think she had it in her to shed any tears after all that she had done. Julian did not treat her


    like a human as he humiliated her using all means. She endured the shame, thinking that she could get


    what she deserved eventually. So, to end up with such an oue instead, it was no surprise she


    would find it hard to ept.


    Right then, Aidan had made his move. He walked straight to his daughter and pped her in the face


    before following up with a backhand p as he roared, "On your knees!"


    However, this time, he pped her twice in front of so many people. That went to show how


    disappointed and angry he was at her.


    After pping Adeline, Aidan turned to kneel before Matthew as well and said in a trembling voice, "Mr.


    Larson, spare the rod, spoil the child. The fact that I have raised such an unfilial daughter is all on me.


    The Thatcher Family has noints with however you wish to punish us. My only wish is that you


    spare my daughter''s life. I am willing to take all the mes for her!" Updated at Draмаnоvеls.cоm
