Chapter 777

After leaving the house, Helen and Minerva went to the Shanghai Nights restaurant and ordered a lot of
food. Helen continued to console Minerva and even brought her to luxury stores to make Minerva happy
by buying her things.

By the time they returned to The Grand Garden, James was on the couch reading a newspaper while
Sasha and Matthew were watching television.

Helen’s face fell right after she stepped into the house before she glowered at them. On the other hand,
James’ expression turned cold when he saw the bags in Minerva’s hands, but he didn’t utter a word in
the end. For the next 30 minutes, all of them were seated on the couch as they stared at each other.

Helen’s phone started to ring all of a sudden. When she fished out her phone and saw that it was Tate,
she smiled while answering the call, “Tate, what’s the matter?”

An anxious voice could be heard from the other end of the call. “Aunt Helen, I-I am in trouble.”

Her expression changed drastically. “What happened?”

He replied, “W-We crashed into someone!”

Helen exclaimed, “What? No way! How did you crash into someone?”

Upon hearing that, the four people around stared at her. Feeling nervous, James then questioned,
“What’s going on? How did the crash happen? Is the car alright?”

She growled, “My nephew is involved in an accident, but all you care about is your car? Tate, where are
you? Are you alright?”





Tate panted heavily and replied, “I-I’m fine. We’re in the Northern Outer Ring of the city. The other party
is severely injured. Aunt Helen, what should I do now?”

Helen hurriedly answered, “Don’t worry. Joanna has a driver’s license and our car is insured. Call the
ambulance first, then the police. We’ll contact the insurance company.”

He replied in a trembling voice, “A-Aunt Helen, Joanna wasn’t the driver; it was me.”

While she was rooted to the spot when she heard that, James snarled, “Damn it! Didn’t you say your
girlfriend would drive? Why did you get behind the wheel? You b*stard, are you trying to ruin me? I-I
would also be held responsible because you’re driving without a license!”

A flustered Helen added, “Tate, why are you so careless? I told you that you can’t drive without a license.
You promised me that you’d let your girlfriend drive. Why did you go back on your word? What can we do
now?”

Tate choked, “Aunt Helen, please save me. I-I don’t know what to do. I just wanted to have a try, but I
didn’t expect that someone would suddenly appear from the junction.”

James bellowed, “Did the person suddenly appear? Or, did you drive too fast? B*stard, don’t you think I
have no idea what’s going on. There are reckless brats who love street racing in the Northern Outer Ring
every night. Did you join them?”

Tate replied meekly, “I-I was just giving it a try with my friends. They told me there wouldn’t be anyone on
the street. I really didn’t expect to crash into someone!”

James slammed the table and rose to his feet. “You really went street-racing! Y-You b*stard!”

A sobbing Helen said, “Tate, why are you so silly? I told you numerous times that you can’t drive without
a license. How can you go street racing with your friends? Are you out of your mind?”



An agitated Tate uttered, “Aunt Helen, you can scold me all you want later, but please help me first!
They’re going to call the police!”

She was at a loss, so she turned to look at her daughter. “Sasha, what should we do now? He’s your
cousin, so you have to save him!”

Sasha was exasperated. “Mom, how do I save him? Not only did he drive without a license, he also went
street racing! He’s exceeded the speed limit and crashed into someone! Don’t you understand that it’s us
who have lent him the car, so we’ll be held responsible as well?”
