I was anxious and angry. "Matthew! Mom is still in the emergency room! How can you give the money to her?

"Quickly get the 200,000 back to pay for mom's surgery!"

Luna burst into laughter, reaching out to stop me.

"Violet, can you stop acting? So many people are watching. Trying to blackmail and trick Matthew's money morally isn't right.

"You don't even have a job. You don't know how hard it is to earn money, and you just ask for 200,000..."

I laughed out of anger. They still thought I was acting to trick them for money?

I was sweating with anxiety. I had time to argue with them, just wanting to get the money back immediately to save Mia's life.

I pulled my hand back. "I'm talking to my husband. You..."

Before I could finish, she exclaimed "Oh!" and suddenly fell backward.

"Luna!"

Matthew's expression changed. He quickly caught Luna and held her in his arms.

He softly comforted the fake-crying Luna, then raised his hand and slapped me hard on the face.

"Violet! You knew Luna's leg was injured, yet you deliberately pushed her! How could you be so vicious!"

I stood there in disbelief.

I never thought that my husband, who was so loving to me not long ago, would do this to me.

Thinking of Mia who was still waiting for the money to save her life, I felt both angry and aggrieved.

I was on the verge of breaking down, full of pleading, "Matthew! I'm begging you, give me the money to save Mom's life!"

Matthew sneered. "Still acting!

"Even if what you said is true, I still wouldn't give you the money.

"Your mom is so old already. Spending so much money on saving her is a waste. She might as well die sooner."

I was completely stunned.

It turned out he kept hanging up on me and didn't want to give the money because he thought I wanted it for my mom's treatment!

I looked at his familiar yet unfamiliar face, so indifferent. And his words were even more chilling.

"Besides, that 200,000 is my money. It's for my mom's retirement. It wasn't easy for her to raise me."

My nails dug deeply into my palms.

"Matthew, you are such a beast!

"You will kill mom!"

Matthew sneered. "That's your mom, not mine! A mother-in-law isn't the same as a real mom!"

After speaking, he picked Luna up horizontally. "Luna, let's go. I can't stand watching this madwoman go crazy for money!"
