Chapter 975

I’ll Drag You Two Down With Me if I Go to Jail

Pale-faced, Liam trembled. “Dad… I can’t go to jail! What will happen to Demi if I do? I-I only did this for
our family…”

“If you really did it for us, it’s all the more reason for you to turn yourself in! We can only overcome this
hurdle if you and Matthew take responsibility. You’re a dutiful son-in-law; surely you don’t want to see
your mom and I live on the streets,” James replied coldly.

Liam looked at Demi helplessly. However, she turned her head and looked away.

Seeing this, Liam was stunned. There was no doubt that the whole family was ready to give up on him.

Then, Matthew walked toward the door and chuckled. “Come on. Let’s go turn ourselves in!”

At that moment, all eyes were on Liam. His face flushed red and then turned purple.

Suddenly, he jumped up and shouted, “I’ll never turn myself in and go to jail! You can go if you want to,
Matthew. I’ll… I’ll never go…”

Annoyed, James stood up and slammed his palm on the table. “What do you mean by that? You keep
saying what a filial son you are, yet you’re not willing to sacrifice for our family now? Look at Matthew,
and then look at yourself! Both of you are sons-in-law of the Cunningham family, so why can’t you act
more responsibly? What right do you have to be my son-in-law?”

Immediately, Liam’s face flushed with anger. “Why should I go to jail? It was not my own idea. Don’t you
think this is unfair, Dad?”



Then, Sasha interjected, “Who said you’re going to jail alone? My husband’s going with you!”



“It’s only right that he goes to jail. Why should I?” he said in defense.

Upon hearing this, Sasha’s face darkened. “Why should my husband go to jail? How can you be so
shameless? It was your fault that this even happened in the first place. He couldn’t stop you guys! In fact,
what does he have to do with this problem anyway? You are the one who should rightfully go to jail! Such
an excellent project wouldn’t have become like this if it weren’t for you!”

James nodded furiously. “She’s right!”

Choking, Liam fumed, “It wasn’t my fault! I only did it because Mom and Dad approved, so why should I
go to jail now?”

As soon as he said this, James’ face turned as cold as stone. “So you want your mom and I to go to jail?
Is that what you’re saying? You’d better make yourself clear!”

“You two won’t be able to run away from this if I go to jail,” Liam gritted through his teeth as his face
turned white.

Furious, James slammed the table and roared, “What are you trying to say? Are you going to drag us
down too? Don’t even think about it! It was all your doing, and we have nothing to do with it.”

“Is it really true that you weren’t involved, though?” Liam sneered. “You took 20 million from the
construction company while Mom took 10 million. And I also transferred a billion into your account two
days ago. It was all the construction company’s funds. Your new car, watch, and Mom’s jewelry were
bought with the company’s money. You two won’t be able to get out of this if they check the accounts
when we go to court.”

Instantaneously, James turned dark as he slumped on the couch.

At that point, he finally realized that the situation was more complicated than he thought.



He and Helen wouldn’t be able to escape from this if things got out of hand.
