“So his injury is the reason you took him into our home?" Matthew demanded.

"Yes! If you have a problem with that, you can always bring a few women home yourself! You could get a lot in here, I'm sure-not that any of them will be able to stand you for Long!"

The way Erica saw it, there was no way that the women who seemed to like Matthew could deal with his temper, no matter how handsome and rich he was.

Matthew abruptly Let go of her, took out his phone, and dialed a number.

"There's a man who just walked out of the villa. Get rid of him!" His tone was as cold and ruthless as someone from hell.

Erica's heart was in her throat when she heard that. As Matthew turned and started to walk away, she tried to block him.

“You can't do this!" she cried as he went past her.

“Matthew, if you dare to hurt him, I swear I'll go tie up Phoebe right now, and hang her at the school gate for three days and three nights!"

“Whatever! See if I care!" Her husband disappeared into the kitchen without Looking back.

Erica was even more shocked than before. ‘Whatever? How could this man say this? Isn't Phoebe supposed to be the woman who really has his heart? Or is he just this cruel to all his women?’

Clenching her teeth, she dropped the first aid kit and stormed after him.

"Don't forget that Phoebe is pregnant. She might lose her baby after being hung at the school gate for one day, let alone being hung for three days. What if you lost her and the baby?"

Matthew turned on her with flames in his eyes.

"Then I'll use your child to make up for her!" he retorted.

Erica squinted at him, uncertain. ‘My child? Does he mean Ethan? Ha, why not? Ethan is in fact the descendant of the Campbell family!'

“Okay, deal," she said savagely.

“I'll go tie up Phoebe right now!"

More than ever, she was becoming aware of what sort of man she was dealing with. Matthew would be just as cruel to his goddess as he was to his actual lawful wife. He'd actually asked her to use Ethan to make up for Phoebe if she lost her baby.

"Stop!" Matthew yelled as she turned away

With a snort, Erica did as she was told and faced him again.

Expressionless, Matthew walked up and looked into her eyes.

“Are you sure you are Ethan's biological mother?"

‘Huh? Why would he suddenly ask that? Does he suspect something?’

Vigilance flashed in Erica's eyes.

"Of... Of course I am."
