"Son? You're back!" What a surprise! Debbie let go of Carlos and ran towards her son excitedly. "Son, why did you co back all of a sudden? Didn't you say you wouldn't co back until the day before your sister's birthday?"
With a faint smile on his face, Matthew cast a glance at his excited mother and hugged her back. "I've had a lot of free ti lately and I heard that Father's been on a spending spree so I ca back to find out if he has a mistress."
Even though Matthew was studying in a university in another country, he managed the company's affairs in his free ti.
Carlos' face darkened with displeasure when he heard Matthew's words. The boy had always been a pain in the ass. He turned to his son and said sarcastically, "What a good son you are, worrying about your old man even when you're not here."
"Yes," Matthew retorted. Then he turned to Debbie. "Mom, I only ca back to check on how things are going around here. If he really does have a mistress, I can take you away from here so that you'll never have to see him again."
Debbie had long gotten used to the cynicism between father and son. She patted Matthew's hand as she said, "Son, like I told you before, you just focus on your studies. Don't worry about the company. It'll only be additional stress for you."
"Mother, you don't have to worry about . All I do is study. I'm not tired." Matthew was a reserved man. He mostly kept to himself and wouldn't hang out with his classmates in his free ti. He was a loner.
"Okay, let's go ho. Evelyn and Terilynn are ho tonight." Debbie held his arm and made their way to the entrance of the house.
When they passed by Carlos, the old man took Debbie to his side and rebuked, "Why do you bother to talk to this brat? He wants to take you away from forever. Co and walk with . Stay away from him."
Debbie rolled her eyes and sighed helplessly. "Carlos Huo, you're being childish."
With a disgusted look on his face, Matthew echoed, "Yes, childish!"
Carlos raised his hand in an attemp
y went inside. "What's up, Terilynn?"
"I want to tell you sothing about Evelyn." When she found out that the man that Evelyn was seeing was Sheffield, she had been itching to talk to soone about it, but since Matthew wasn't ho, she had no choice but to keep it to herself.
Matthew closed the door. He sat on the bed while Terilynn sat on the sofa.
"Matthew, I found out who the man was! The man who impregnated Evelyn. It looks like they're still seeing each other, and Dad knows. I haven't told anyone else. What do you think I should do?" She didn't even dare to talk to Joshua about it for fear that she would say sothing inappropriate.
Matthew frowned at her words. All he cared about was that Evelyn was still seeing that man. He had noticed that Evelyn looked quite good. "So who is she with right now?" he inquired. Didn't he just see Evelyn and Calvert together on the news?
"You know Dad. He didn't like that Evelyn was seeing that man. Soone posted a photo of them together which got the rumor mill going, so Dad asked Calvert to pretend to be the man going out with Evelyn. Evelyn's only with Calvert for the dia, but she's actually dating that man in private." Terilynn felt helpless. She wanted to be there for her sister, especially now that her father seed to be controlling her personal life. She didn't know what to do.
