Medical Genius's Unspeakable Marriage novel Chapter 248

Matthew’s words received the approval from everyone present as they nodded their heads. Frowning, Old Master Jackson shot Harvey a displeased look. When it came to verbal argument, Harvey was a far cry from Matthew.

“Anyone who arrives is a guest. Harvey, invite Mr. Larson in!” he ordered softly.

Harvey’s face flushed with embarrassment. Since Old Master Jackson had spoken personally, it meant that he was unhappy with him. Hence, he threw a fierce glare at Matthew, as his hatred for him grew greater.

The Jackson’s men retreated to allow Matthew into the hall and he went next to Sasha. With tears in her eyes, she grabbed his arm tightly and refused to let go. Matthew grinned at her and assured, “Don’t worry, silly. Everything will be alright. Trust me!”

“Demi, how could you say that?” Sasha cried anxiously.

“Did I say anything wrong?” Demi snapped.

Harvey strode over and said in a gruff, “Larson, since you’re already here, then let’s begin!”

Composedly, Matthew gave a nod and walked to the middle of the hall with his head held high. Seated all over the room were the heads of the Ten Greatest Families.

With half-closed eyes and Mala beads in his hands, Old Master Jackson appeared as if everything going on was none of his business. In fact, the person holding the highest authority in the Jacksons was not the head of the family, but this old master who had lived for more than eighty years. Seated at the side was Samuel who sniggered and threw a look at Matthew, and he had an inexplicably smug and gleeful look on his face.

Everyone turned their gazes on Matthew. The way they looked at it, these evidence were enough to give Matthew the death sentence.

Demi scowled, “What do you think now? I’ve told you so— he’s a murderer! Sasha, is this the husband whom you place your trust with? Do you know that this blind faith of yours will ruin our whole family? Why don’t we look for Mr. Hughes and speak with him properly? We still have a chance if we join the Union now!”

Gritting her teeth and holding her palms into tight fists, Sasha declared, “I don’t believe it! Matthew must be innocent!”

Demi responded with a snort. “Sasha, you won’t give up until all hope is lost, will you? Fine, I’ll see if you can still trust him like this when he dies later!”
