Chapter 16
“You ungrateful child, are you really going to cause such a rift with your own parents over a dead person! What’s wrong with Leah, as long as she can bear children! Cayden and Ava were confined to the old house, repeating similar words for days.”
It was not surprising when Matt came in. When Marissa was alive, she was constantly tormented by them. Now that she is dead, these people are definitely more arrogant. Perhaps by completely venting his emotions, Matt now feels calm in his mind.
He walked in step by step, and Cayden and Ava paused when they saw him, but continued, “You finally decided to come. What are you waiting for now? If someone finds out, they will make fun of us, the Holloway family! Withdraw your people, then marry Leah, publicly announce this matter, and don’t forget about the children. We are all doing this for your own good, Matt.”
When Marissa was disciplined in the past, and the idea of sending her abroad was brought up, Cayden and Ava also said, “For your own good, for the Holloway family.” At that time, he didn’t think much about it, but now he realizes how foolish he was to follow those words.
Matt smiled, pulling the corners of his mouth.
Cayden and Ava thought this was a signal of reconciliation, so they took advantage of the situation and said, “We know you were upset when Marissa died, but you should have adjusted by now. Those things we did before were just impulsive actions.”
“Marissa died because of you. If you hadn’t insisted on sending her abroad, she wouldn’t have had the accident. It’s your fault. Matt spoke

calmly.”

Cayden and Ava were stunned for a moment; then immediately became angry. “What do you mean by that? If it wasn’t for her inability to have children and constantly causing trouble for Leah, would we have done that? Besides, you also agreed to send Marissa abroad, didn’t you? Matt, now that people are dead, it’s useless to say anything. The most important thing is to live a good life with Leah.”
“Marissa didn’t harm Leah, don’t you all know that?” Matt looked at the old mansion, filled with precious belongings. As he spoke, he instructed the butler to move everything out. “Marissa was innocent, she didn’t do anything. It was our misunderstanding that led to her death. You were wrong, and I was wrong too. I didn’t believe her.”
Antique calligraphy and paintings, porcelain vases, and jewels, one by one, were being moved away. Cayden and Ava were both shocked, as those were all priceless treasures!
“Matt, what are you trying to do! Cayden shouted.”
Matt remained calm, “Compensation.”
“You are my parents, I will not lay a hand on you, but Marissa was killed because of you. Until you apologize and admit your mistake to her, please stay here. The Holloway family is no longer under your control.”
Ava was so angry that she fainted. They never imagined that Matt would go to such lengths for Marissa!
Piece by piece, everything in the old house was moved out. Matt only left two maids to ensure their daily lives, then left with his people, allowing Cayden to scold him from behind.
Immediately after that, he returned to the basement of the villa, where the butler greeted him.

“Mr. Holloway, you’re back. Ms. Jensen’s mental state is very poor right now. Do you think we should call a doctor?”
Matt glanced lightly and said, “No need, as long as she doesn’t die. She
can only die after she has paid off what she owes Marissa.”
