Chapter 849 Only Matthew Can Save You Now
Tate was on his knees, and without answering Chloe's question, he went on shakily, "Please, Aunt Helen. You
have to help me, no matter what. You lovethe most, don't you? You have to help me!" Helen was taken
aback by his words as she answered nervously, "Goodness, Tate, what is it that has you acting like this? Come
on, get off the floor and tellall about it."
He refused to stand and instead pressed urgently, "Promisethat you'll help me, Aunt Helen, or I-l won't get
up at all!"
It was only after hearing her assurances that he finally rose to his feet. He was still trembling as he recounted
the incident at the hospital, leaving out the fact that he had harassed Crystal prior to that. He shared he had
gotten into a quarrel with her while they were at the hospital, which caused her to slap him twice across the
face.

He went on to explain that he had only wanted to teach her a lesson at the restaurant earlier, but landed himself
in hot water instead. He also conveniently left out the part where he had asked his friends to capture Crystal for
whatever lewd and twisted purposes he had in mind.
After having heard all this, Helen was dumbfounded. While Tate had significantly cut down on his ridiculous
antics, she knew that he was in huge trouble this time.
Others might not know Joseph as well as she did. After all, the Cunningham Group had been collaborating with
Carlson Group from the very beginning and he just happened to be the Carlson Group's chief doctor. As such, the
Cunningham Group had always been respectful of him.
More importantly, he was a reputable man in Eastcliff and well on the top of the social hierarchy.
Presently, there were plenty of occasions where Cunningham Pharmaceuticals would be in contact with Joseph
and under such circumstances, for Tate to trifle with the older man as well as his most beloved granddaughter
would be equivalent to a death wish.
Since Chole didn't understand the gravity of the situation, she frowned and asked, "What possessed you to do
something like this, Tate? Where did | go wrong with you? All you ever do is cause us trouble. Can't you just grow
up?" She paused and turned to look at her sister while apologizing, "Helen, I'm sorry, but | think you'll have to
help and clear his mess again. Should we bring a gift basket or something for Mr. Harrison?"
Helen gave her an exasperated look. "Chloe, I'm afraid a gift basket isn't going to solve anything."
A surprised Chloe asked, "And why is that?"
Helen elaborated in frustration on how tricky the situation was given Joseph's background. At last, she concluded
in a low voice, "Offending Mr. Harrison would lead to a bigger hassle than offending Leanna. Leanna manages a
business and is certainly as powerful as she is rich, but she doesn't have many friends; Mr. Harrison, on the other
hand, has saved countless lives. It's hard to say how many people in Eastcliff owe him a favor and the Harrisons
are an extremely reputable family here. If word of what Tate has done breaks out, then there would be an
indefinite amount of people who would cafter him before Mr. Harrison even has to ask! In fact, there might
even be those in the underworld who wouldn't hesitate to sink Tate in Lake Eastcliff!"

Chloe's eyes widened at the revelation; she had no idea that her son would actually wreak so much havoc. She
was silent for a while before she finally responded in a quivering voice, "S-So, what should we do, Helen? Tate is
my only son. You have to help him!"
Helen was clearly at her wits' end as she sighed and countered, "Of course I'll help Tate. He's my nephew, after
all. However, | won't be able to get a word in with Mr. Harrison at all!"
Since Chloe was panicking, she pressed, "Then, should we ask Sasha for help? She's the company president,
which means her words carry weight."
However, her hopes were dashed when she saw Helen solemnly shaking her head. "Sasha won't be of much help
either. Mr. Harrison doesn't think of her as somebody important just because she runs the business!"
"So, what should we do? Please, you have to cup with a way to save Tate from all this. He's my only son!"
Chloe anxiously begged.
Helen was quiet for what seemed like a long tbefore she finally replied through gritted teeth, "There's only
one person in our household who can even get a word in with Mr. Harrison." Chloe demanded urgently, "Who?"
With a grim expression, Helen replied slowly, "Matthew."
