Chapter 1198 Men Are Not Afraid Of Sourness
In the kitchen, Matthew methodically added some ingredients into a glass bowl and began to stir.
As soon as Erica stood up from the carpet, he snapped, "Sit down! Don't move!"
He had no intention of letting her into the kitchen again!
His wife pursed her lips and spoke in a low voice. "Don't get all excited. I just wanted to ask you one more question." In fact, what she really wanted was to learn how to make chocolate. Why couldn't he teach her?
"Well, go ahead and ask. Just stay where you are!" Matthew insisted.
"If I'm sued, will you help me?"
Matthew stopped what he was doing. Pressing his hands against the counter, he fixed his sharp eyes on the woman and said, "Remember your identity, no matter when or where you are!"
"Huh?" Erica's confusion was plain in her face.
"You're Mrs. Huo, and I'm Mr. Huo. If Mr. Huo doesn't help Mrs. Huo, who else should he help?" Matthew asked. 'Not Tessie, ' he added silently to himself. 'I'm not crazy!'
His explanation drew a smile out of Erica. "So if I'm in trouble, you'll help me out? I mean, without telling my father?"
"The same answer as above!" Matthew declared.
"And if I want you to help me investigate something, you'll help me then too?"
"Same as above!"
Erica thought his choice of words was odd. Still, she was glad he seemed so willing. "Then can you help me investigate Tessie?" she asked. Tessie had been away for so long, and Erica had been taking care of Tessie's son for all this time. She deserved the truth. If nothing was done, Tam would not give up custody of Ethan, and Erica wouldn't be able to eat or sleep well for the rest of her life. "Sure," Matthew answered.
