Chapter 51
The weather in early spring was always unpredictable. In a blink of art eye, lightning cracked across
ss the sky and rain poured down heavily.
Matthew’s eyes flickered with uncertainty, clearly still contemplating whether spending those 150 inillion was worth it.
Rhea slightly narrowed her eyes and soon sensed his hesitation. Naturally, she knew what Matthew was contemplating, so she changed her harsh attitude and got up to sit beside him enchantingly. She whispered in his ear, “Matthew, if I’m not mistaken, you still want to win back my sister, don’t you!”
Matthew’s silence spoke volumes.
Sering his silence, Rhea curled her lips into a smile, her eyes bending into two charming ares, revealing a sharp gaze that was unbefitting of a seventeen–year–old innocent girl. “No answer means you agree. In that case, I don’t think you should harbor such hostility towards us. By all logic, we te now in the same boat, aren’t we…
With her delicate arm draped over Matthew’s, she continued, “With your intelligence, I’m sure you’re aware of my sister’s current situation, Her current wealth is immeasurable. Aside from the amount of inheritance her biological parents left her, just the gifts she received at her birthday gala were worth millions of dollars, right…”
Matthew was still shocked when he thought of the eighteen gifts that the man had given Maybelle that day. And no one knew what the last gift was except for Maybelle.

was spoiled by my parents since she was a child. She’d threaten to run away from home when she was wronged, but she was raised by the Harper family after all. Naturally, everything she has belongs to the Harper family.
Matthew looked at her in disbelief. It was the first time he’d seen her shed her harmless, unassuming persona and reveal her ambitious heart
Rhea smiled knowingly. “Matthew, since you came to the hotel in such a hurry to look for Maybelle, I’m sure you can’t find her at this goes on, she might really be taken away by that man… And then we’ll all end up with nothing.”
His expression flickered, and he asked Rhea uncertainly, “So… What do you mean?”
all like us, right? If
Rhea gently rubbed her fingers against his bare arm and teased him. “The only way you can get back together with her is to cooperate with us help us settle the remaining debt Matthew, 150 million dollars is not much at all.”
Matthew understood that he was just a scumbag who was abandoned by Maybelle. But the Harper family was different Dale and Beatrice were her foster parents, and Rhea was her sister. No matter how cruel she might me, she couldn’t truly sever ties with the Harper family.
Everyone knew that Maybelle ran away from home because the Harper family deliberately hid her identity and stole 600 million dollars from her card. But as long as the Harper family paid off the debt on that card on time, she couldn’t avoid the Harper family anymore unless she wanted to be ridiculed and condemned for the rest of her life.

At this point. Matthew was on Rhea’s side. “But…”
“But what?” Ichra was aimised. “Matthew, do you really think you have time to hesitate? Don’t blame me for not reminding you. Opportunities don’t knock twice. I can assure you that as long as she returns to the Harper family, we will naturally have a way to get everything she has. By then, will youshil worry aleat not getting anything in retuni?“
Manlurw’s only concern now was that the Harper family might burns the bridge once they got what they wanted. He had to see some results after
nillion. He didn’t want to end up working hard for nothing, just making someone else’s dreams come true.
After planning for so long and being just a step away from success, Rhea couldn’t give up. She tried her best to speculate the thoughts of the man in front of her. Her fingers enundantly circling the sensitive spot on his elbow, while her eyes fixed on him intently. “To be honest with you, you’re not the trily our wissers the valur in any sister. Besides you, we have many better choires. But don’t you know why Lchowe you to help us?”
Matthew was smug when he brand that. Of course he knew, it was because thea was deeply in love with him. Although he thought he concealed his estions well, the slight upward curve of his lips betrayed his arrogance and self–importance.
Marc rough, the art second, he heard the whisper sweetly next to him. “Of course, it’s because I like you the most in this world. If you hadn’t ignored me for days, not answering my calls or messages, I wouldn’t have been forced to ask you out in this way” Her tone held a hint of reproach, singerl with a playful petulante.

“Wait…” Unable to bear her provocation, Matthew immediately grabbed her arm and pulled her back. “It’s just 150 million dollars. I didn’t say 1 wouldn’t give it to you. Why look for someone else
A smile spread acrou Rhea’s lips, and the instantly sat back down next to him, intimately hugging his neck. “I knew it. You’re the best
She gave him a kiss on the lips. And Matthew felt a bit uneasy looking at Dale and Beatrice still sitting opposite him. After all, not long ago, he was still the fiance of the their eldest daughter.
Fortunately, Dale and Beatrice did not show any strange expressions. Since Matthew agreed to pay 150 million dollars, they finally felt relieved.

Thinking of another matter, Dale cleared his throat, speaking in a deep voice, “One I between my two daughters. Which one do you prefer?”
Matthew chuckled bitterly as he pondered. “Do Leven have a choice?”
