My Pretty Sweetheart novel Chapter 1660

Matt's arms were gone. An afternoon had passed, so the Forbes family naturally came to ask for an explanation.

The man who came was Matt's eldest brother, Elijah. Probably because the Forbes family was powerful enough to be arrogant, he came in alone with only the driver.

As soon as he sat down, Elijah said, "I'm here on behalf of my father."

Sheldon Forbes, their father, built nearly half of the original high-end office buildings in Jarold City. He was a man of high prestige in both politics and business circles. Everyone had to respect him, no matter the government or the underworld. As his representative and being slightly older than us, Elijah was full of spirit and charisma.

Hendrix protected me, and I sat on the sofa. Aaron was sitting on the single sofa next to us. He was extremely hostile towards Elijah.

"Mr. Forbes, are you here to apologize?" Aaron took the lead and said sarcastically, "Your brother's men stabbed my sister's best friend, and even wanted to assault her. Arianna was incredibly frightened. My uncle knows about this, and he's furious!"

Charles was in a high position and never had any controversies. If he were angered, everyone in Jarold City would also cower in fear. Although Elijah came to us assertively, he seemed to be a little afraid when he heard Aaron's words. He raised his hand, pushed his glasses on the bridge of his nose, and sank into his thoughts.

After a long time, Elijah regained his voice and looked at Aaron coldly. "Let's not talk about the injuries of outsiders. Now, let's talk about our families. Arianna is safe and sound, but my brother only touched her a little. Nothing happened between them, but Mr. Roberts broke both of his arms. Does he respect the Forbes family at all?"

"Oh? Really?" Aaron's voice sounded a bit ironic. "So the arms are gone?"

Elijah probably felt that he was being a rogue and was a little impatient. "He was sent abroad, and my father almost had a heart attack! Who will take responsibility for this?"

People said that Elijah Forbes was a good-for-nothing, but that did not seem the case. The incident was clearly Matt's fault, but Elijah had been avoiding that from the beginning. He tried to avoid talking about Ian, who was still in the ICU, and brought up Sheldon's health instead. People on top of the pyramid had their way with words indeed.

Aaron would never give in easily. He was the type to argue until he won. He did not hide his mean tone and continued, "Matt is well-known, but my brother-in-law has already been very polite, only breaking two hands. If I were him, his eyes would be stabbed out!"

This was definitely not an exaggeration. Aaron's way of doing things was thousands of times more vicious than Hendrix's.

Elijah was embarrassed and his face was livid. He turned around and asked Hendrix, "It seems that both of you have the same idea? Are you not going to be responsible for my brother's hands?"

Hendrix remained calm and replied, "I knew that he was from the Forbes family when I did it."

What he had laid hands on was the dignity of the Forbes family.

These words were loud and powerful, which made Elijah stand up on the spot. His chest heaved violently, and he looked very angry. However, it was Hendrix's cold eyes that greeted him. He could not find a weak spot, and his face was pale with anger.

Aaron, who was watching the fun, was sarcastic at this moment. "Mr. Forbes, I advise you to find that playboy a good lawyer. He ordered his men to kidnap and hurt others, and made the victim seriously injured. My men saw it clearly. This time, with the Reid family, can you get Matt out of prison safe and sound?"
