Chapter 456

The group of guys scrambled over themselves to rush over to Sasha’s side. Not expecting them to react
in this manner, Sasha was so frightened that she retreated backward, again and again.

Then, Matthew stepped forward and stood in front of her. In a low voice, he said, “That’s enough! Get
lost right now! Otherwise, don’t blame me for being rough!”

In response, those people became frightened. They had witnessed that sturdy man being beaten up after
all. Exchanging glances all around, one of the men stood out as the leader, saying, “We’re talking to this
beautiful woman here. What has that got to do with you?”

Matthew furiously replied, “I’m her husband! Are you saying I’m unrelated to this matter?”

\Upon hearing that, they immediately burst into laughter. The leader said loudly, “Can a live-in son-in-
law be considered as her husband? You’re nothing but a good-for-nothing mooching off her. As long as
she finds somebody better, she’ll kick you to the curb. Take a good look in the mirror, you good-for-
nothing! How dare you tell us to get lost?! D*mn it. I bet you we’ll kill you first!”

Matthew smiled derisively. “With your abilities? I’ll warn you once. Don’t make any reckless moves.
Otherwise, I might kill you!”

These people immediately flew into a rage, and the leader roared, “You sure know how to f*cking brag!
Get him!”

After that, the group of people rushed toward Matthew aggressively, and the one standing closest to
Matthew kicked out at him.

Thus, Matthew did not hesitate to grab that man by the ankles and slammed his fist down on that man’s
kneecap. Following that, a resounding crack rang out through the air—his leg was broken—and that man
screamed in pain from where he lay on the ground. Hence, everybody was shocked by what had just
happened. Who could have expected Matthew to attack so ruthlessly?



The leader yelled furiously, “You d*mn—”



Before he could finish speaking, Matthew stepped forward and grabbed him by the neck. Then, he lifted
the man above his head. Everybody froze in shock at the sight. That man weighed over 80 kg! Even so,
Matthew held him up effortlessly as if he were holding up a doll! What strength! For that reason, they
didn’t dare to attack him anymore. If they really started fighting, none of them were his opponents!

A shriek sounded from upstairs. “Matthew, what are you doing?! Put my friend down immediately!”

Demi ran down the stairs in a rage.

Ignoring her, Matthew threw the man to the ground next to him. That man fell to the ground heavily and a
trickle of blood flowed out of his mouth. Despite his struggles to get up, he couldn’t get up again.

Demi asked, “Are you alright? Were you hurt? Rest assured, I’ll make him pay for this!” After saying that,
she stood up furiously, stepped forward, and slapped Matthew. “Who are you to hit my friend?!”

In response, Mathew countered, grabbed her by the shoulders, and threw her down on the sofa. Getting
up from the sofa, she screamed like a crazed banshee, “How dare you hit me, Matthew?!”

Then, Sasha said in a cold voice, “That’s enough, Demi. If you had not made a move first, why would
Matthew retaliate?”

Demi retorted furiously, “Why did I hit him in the first place?! My friend is a guest here! How can you treat
a guest in this manner?! It’s bad enough you didn’t entertain our guests. How could you hit them?!
Matthew, have you gone insane?! Don’t you know the principle of welcoming guests into your home?”

Instead, Sasha angrily replied, “Demi, you better explain this clearly. How can these people be
considered guests? Putting aside the mess the house has been turned into, they were being vulgar and



insulted me! Moreover, they tried to harass me! Matthew couldn’t bear to watch any longer, so he
stopped them! What’s wrong with that?!”

Momentarily stunned, Demi immediately snapped, “Hmph; how could my friends possibly do something
like that? Sasha, I know you’re protecting Mathew and deliberately twisting the truth around. However,
there are so many people here! They can all be witnesses. Let me ask them who on earth was in the
wrong?”

Everybody immediately started yelling, “It was that Larson guy who started hitting us! We didn’t even do
anything! As soon as they came in, they tried to chase us out! Despite telling them that we were invited
by you and Liam, they didn’t care and started getting violent with us!”

Demi sneered, “Well, Sasha, what else do you have to say? Did you think that you can turn everything
on its head with your words alone? I’m telling you; it’s useless! So many people are watching and they
can all testify! Matthew, explain yourself now!”

Sasha was completely incensed. It was blatant to see that Demi was forcibly turning the truth on its
head. Besides, these people were all her friends. Would they be honest if she asked them to testify?!
