Chapter 315
When Sasha was just preparing to leave the office at six thirty in the evening, she saw Demi who was dressed up
to the nines standing at the door of her room. "Demi, why are you here?" Sasha sounded astonished.
"Sasha, I'm here to pick you up for dinner because Dad and Mom have booked the most luxurious private room
at Zen Garden for us to have a family gathering," Demi told her with a smile. Sasha widened her eyes in shock
and echoed, "Zen Garden? Why are we having dinner at such an expensive place? Also, why are we having a
gathering all of a sudden in the first place?" Demi then dragged Sasha into the car without giving her a chance
to ask questions.
Soon, they reached Zen Garden and walked into the private room where James and Helen had long been waiting
for them.
After greeting them, Sasha asked them what the dinner was about with a puzzled look.
"Oh, every one of our family has to be here because we've invited a distinguished guest to join us for dinner,"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJames remarked casually.
Looking confused, Sasha pressed on, "A distinguished guest? Who's that?"
Helen and James first glanced at each other before declaring with a smile, "He's Travis Hughes from the Hughes
Family in Eastshire!"
"Say what?" Sasha looked alarmed at once before rising to her feet immediately. "W-Why are you guys buying
him a meal? It's so obvious tothat he's not a decent man!"
James was enraged by her comment in an instant. "That's rude! Sasha, how can you say something like that?
Why isn't Young Master Hughes a decent man?"
Sasha explained herself anxiously, "You guys witnessed how he behaved at the company earlier. Is that how a
decent man should be?"
Helen rectified her with a smile, "Sasha, you are wrong to think of it that way. Young Master Hughes visited our
company in order to invite you to a ball. In other words, he did that because he has feelings for you. Sasha, is it
wrong for a guy to have feelings for you?"
Sasha countered, "Mom, | don't think so because he literally commandedto attend the ball with him. What's
more, who am | in his eyes? Why do | have to be his partner even though I'm already married?" Helen waved her
hands dismissively. "Sasha, Young Master Hughes is the successor to his family and he is used to behaving
condescendingly, so we can't blhim for talking in a commanding tone. However, doesn't that show how
powerful and confident he is? Do you prefer men who are timid and talk softly like Matthew?"
Sasha was exasperated. "Mom, what's wrong with Matthew? He's a nice guy who doesn't want to be harsh to
other people."
Demi sneered, "He's a nice guy? He's more like a useless guy! Even if he wants to be harsh to other people, does
he even have the ability to do that?
He was indeed quite bold earlier today to beat up Young Master Hughes' men. Obviously, he didn't take the
Hughes Family seriously at all. There's no way the Hughes Family will go easy on him for what he did!"
Sasha looked slightly concerned because she was really worried that something bad might happen to Matthew
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmfollowing the fracas that had taken place earlier.
James, who knew what Sasha was thinking about judging from her expression, stated, "Sasha, we invited Young
Master Hughes tonight so that we can apologize to him.
As things turned out really ugly at the company earlier, our family will end up badly if we really anger the
Hughes Family. Sasha, if you don't want to see Matthew get killed on the streets, you should put in sgood
words for him with Young Master Hughes later so that he will forgive Matthew!"
Sasha wavered because she was really worried that something bad might happen to Matthew because of this.
She didn't mind yielding to Travis by apologizing to him if that could solve the problem.
But the problem was, would Travis let them go so easily?
After scontemplation, Sasha asked, "Dad, Mom, why don't | give Matthew a call first?"
James snapped immediately, "No way! Are you crazy? If Matthew knows about this, he will definitely cover
and make a scene. By the tit happens, Young Master Hughes would get him killed on the spot. Do you want
Matthew to die here?"
