Chapter 104 The Cruel One

As I tensed up, I looked at the door. Matthew appeared, and he widened his eyes.

Seeing him unexpectedly made me nervous. I tightened my grip on the two big suitcases I was dragging. They mainly contained clothes and other things that were memorable to me. "Honey, you're back!" Smiling warmly, he strode over. "Honey..."

I took a step back. He was a stranger to me now, and I couldn't stand him being near me. When he did, I

felt a mix of disgust, fear, and hatred.

He frowned slightly but then smiled as he saw my suitcases. "Honey, where are you going?"

"I'm here to take my stuff," I said blandly, then pulled the suitcases toward the door.

He grabbed my arm. "No, honey, you can't go

Disgusted, I yanked my arm from his grip. "Never call me that again!"

"Honey, why are you so pig-headed?" Matthew looked helpless. "Must you be so cruel?"

"Yes

I'm a pig-headed woman! If I weren't, I wouldn't have ended up like this and almost got Ava killed!" Seeing him made me lose my cool again. "And you're the one who's being cruel!"

"What else do you want? My dad has gone to jail, hasn't he? Why can't you forgive us? Matthew stiffened

He took a step closer and sneered. "Or do you have someone new? Now that you've taken everything from me, you can't wait to dump me, huh? No wonder Mel says you're a scheming woman!" Mel again! He talked as if that bitch was his wife, and I was an outsider.

"You fucking asshole!" I marched toward the door, dragging the suitcases along.

He pulled me back. "Do you think I'm unaware of what's happening between you and Atlas Pierce? What were you trying to accomplish when you transferred your funds and changed the locks and passwords? "They're not yours alone, okay? Are you planning to keep the house, the car, and the money for yourself?

Who gave you the idea?"

I retorted, "You brought this upon yourself. They're rightfully mine. If you hadn't done what you did, things

wouldn't have ended up like this. You should think about what you've done, Matthew!"

Refusing to let go, Matthew gave me a sad and pleading look. "Chloe, you were never like this before. Why

I couldn't help but chuckle. How ironic it was to hear this coming out of his mouth.

Seeing his helpless face, I could tell his patience was wearing thin. I smiled and said, "A home with a father having affairs with his sister, a grandfather who doesn't care if she lives or dies, and a grandmother who doesn't give a damn about anything?

"Not to mention that her aunt keeps trying to make life difficult for her. What kind of life could Ava have if she grew up in a home like that?"

Matthew rushed to hug me as I left. At this moment, the door burst open, and Melanie showed up at the

doorway like an apparition.
