Sean was too stunned to speak and he looked at Tristen for a long time before he waved his hands in resignation to signal the rest to leave. The rest of the Cosby Family members left them alone at that. Then, he glared at Matthew before hollering, "Get out of my sight, Larson!"

"The Cosby Family will forever be in your debt for saving my father and we will repay you for that. But, listen carefully here. You are not allowed to show your face in the whole Southeast State anymore. If not, I will kill you!"

Matthew sighed as he did not expect things to turn out this way.

"I'm sorry, Miss Cosby," he apologized softly as he ignored the rest of the Cosby Family before turning around to leave.

Tristen watched as Matthew walked away and collapsed to the ground as her soul left her body.

Everyone else gave each other looks as the banquet lost all its colors.

On the side, Wilfred let out a sigh before standing up. "Come here, Tristen. Let's go home."

Tristen answered him and went to support him with her arm as they left.

The moment they exited the room, she could not suppress her tears anymore as they streamed down her face.

She had to say those words earlier so that Sean would let Matthew off the hook. However, only she knew how insincere those words were.

Only God knew how much she wanted to run after Matthew and apologize to him. She wanted to tell him that she liked him, but she could not do any of that now.

She did not know how hurtful her words would be to Matthew, but she had hurt herself and wondered whether she would be able to see him in this life ever again.

Sean sat alone by the table and downed the alcohol as the people gradually left the room. He had wanted to confirm Tristen's marriage tonight, but things went south instead.

Truthfully, he wasn't an impulsive person and it had only happened because it involved his beloved daughter, Tristen.

If it was something else that Matthew rejected or humiliated him on, he would not have thrown such a big fuss.

However, Sean could not control himself when Tristen was involved. That was the reason why things happened the way they did.

He knew clearly how much pain Tristen would have endured for her to say those words, but there was nothing else he could do.

Zoey sat beside him and whispered, "Uncle Sean, don't be angry."

"It's Matthew's loss for not marrying Tristen. Many suitors want to marry her with her looks and status. He's dumb to have let this opportunity go."

However, Sean just waved his dismissal and sighed. "Even if that's true, you know how Tristen is, Zoey. I'm afraid she will never marry after this. Sigh, I..."

Zoey also fell silent. What he said was the truth as Tristen would never marry after this incident. There was nothing to be done. They could only blame fate for making those two meet so late.

After leaving the Cosbys, Matthew hailed a cab and headed toward the airport.

Despite feeling guilty about Tristen, he was a married man. Anyone who fell in love with him would be hurt, no matter what.

The car whizzed through the city and left the busy streets. Suddenly, a black SUV came toward the vehicle in the opposite direction.

The cab driver was shocked and wanted to swerve the car to avoid the SUV, but the SUV was aiming for them.

The driver did not dare to crash head-on into the SUV and turned the steering wheel to instead crash the car into the field next to the road.

Then, the driver jumped out of the car and pointed his fingers at the parked SUV not far away as he bellowed.

At the same time, a man jumped out of the SUV and gave a hard slap to the cab driver without saying a word. Then, he pointed at Matthew in the car and roared, "Larson, come out and accept your death!"
