Chapter 273

Liam hesitated slightly when it came to the Grahams.

Old Mrs. Graham was respectable in Eastcliff. If they destroyed their mansion, the consequences could
be dire!

Seeing that Liam was quiet, Demi lost her patience. “Dear, what are you waiting for? Call your men now!”

A disdainful voice came from the door, “Are you tired of living? You really want to go look for trouble at
the Grahams?”

Everyone inside the room turned around to find Matthew standing by the door.

While all of them looked stunned, Demi snapped through gritted teeth, “Matthew Larson, are you trying to
scare us for no reason? Liam’s men are all tough guys who fear nothing—”

James cut her off directly. “Demi, stop being foolish! We aren’t bringing any men with us and we aren’t
going to get physical with them! Instead, we will try to negotiate with them! We will tell them Matthew only
has the right to give them 10 million, and the remaining 290 million is out of his hands! Therefore, they
must return the rest to us or we will get it back through legal means. Hmph, I don’t believe the Grahams
are powerful enough to be above the law.”

Liam chuckled. “Dad is right. Reputation and image matters the most to a prestigious family like the
Grahams. I’m sure they will be smart enough to know they will definitely be the losing party if we bring
this to court. Therefore, I reckon we’ll just need to throw some threats at them for them to return the
money to us obediently.”

Elated to hear that, Demi exclaimed, “In that case, what’re we waiting for? Let’s go and pay them a visit
right now!”



Just as they were ready to set off, Matthew suddenly laughed. “Are you really going to visit the
Grahams? Liam, I suppose you still remember that you were the one who sold the jade bracelet? If the
Grahams really want to hold someone accountable for its loss, let’s see who will be arrested and sent to
jail in the end!”



Both Liam and Demi looked shaken at once.

After a moment of silence, Liam suddenly jeered, “Matthew, you have to make your allegation based on
proof! Do you have any evidence that can show that we were the ones who sold the jade bracelet?
Clearly it was you who took it and sold it!”

Demi smirked triumphantly and chimed in, “That’s right! You were the one who sold the jade bracelet;
why are you trying to pin the blame on us now?”

Infuriated, Sasha shouted angrily, “Liam, stop throwing the blame at Matthew! You wanted proof, right?
I’m the witness! I can prove that you and Demi were the ones who sold the jade bracelet!”

Demi said anxiously, “Sasha, h-how can you be so cruel? Are you really going to throw your younger
sister under the bus?”

Sasha gritted her teeth. “I make my judgments based on facts, and the fact is you really did do it!”

Demi didn’t dare say anything. How could she endure life in prison?

With a frown, Liam suddenly laughed out loud and concluded, “Sasha, your testimony won’t be of much
use. As Matthew’s wife, your testimony won’t be given any weight! But it will be a different case for Dad
and Mom. Dad, Mom, did you guys witness Matthew selling the jade bracelet?”

James and Helen glanced at each other before nodding their heads with bleak expressions.



Sasha was taken aback by her parents’ reaction. “Dad, Mom, h-how could you lie?”

Liam sniggered because it was Helen who asked them to sell the jade bracelet. Therefore, Helen had no
choice but to shove the blame to Matthew or she would get implicated too!

With a smug look, Demi sneered, “Sasha, what else can you say now? Hmph, are you trying to sabotage
me? Do you have the means to do that?”

Sasha felt disheartened by how shameless her family was.

Demi announced with a triumphant look, “Well, we shouldn’t waste anymore time talking! Now, let’s visit
the Grahams and ask for the money back! You’ll be going to jail soon enough, Matthew!”

When they reached the door, Matthew chuckled suddenly. “You guys had better give up on wanting to
visit the Grahams.”

Demi questioned him immediately. “What happened? Are you afraid? Didn’t you appear very cocky just
now? Are you feeling scared now?

Matthew shook his head and clarified, “I’m not afraid, but I just want to give you guys a heads up—the
jewellry shop has CCTV cameras inside.”

While Demi and Liam looked stunned, Sasha appeared overjoyed to hear that.

“I’ve looked through the CCTV footage a long time ago, and it showed very clearly that it was the two of
you who went to sell the bracelet! Do you think your testimonies will overwrite the footage as evidence?”
drawled Matthew.

Demi and the rest stood rooted to the spot, stunned.



Sasha spoke with a smile, “In fact, I have a solution. You want the money, right? You can get it back by
letting Liam shoulder the responsibility and going to jail.”

James and Helen exchanged a look before turning to look at Liam in unison.

Liam was rattled. He knew that the greedy old couple had the intention to send him to jail in exchange for
the 300 million!
