Chapter 188: Lodge A Report
Amelia could only restrain her urge to fling herself into Matteo’s arms and kiss the living daylights out of him, due to the presence of many other eyes in the room. But she promised herself that she would show just how pleased she was with his actions tonight after they thoroughly destroyed her scummy relatives.
Her blood boiled as she thought of her injured father, and she turned to Benji Wales. "Benji, my father has been assaulted by his brother. How are his injuries?"
"Your father was injured?" Benji asked, his mouth dropping in shock.
Clearly, his staff had failed to inform him of this critical detail, but then again, it was hard for them to tell him anything else that wasn’t Matteo Montgomery. That was the most pressing issue, after all.
"Yes," Matteo barked out, casting a vengeful look at Joshua. That sniveling man was starting to sweat, and Matteo hoped he would pee in his pants before the day was over. At least they’d be able to give him a room for incontinence. "I plan to open a police investigation and take legal action. A lawsuit is incoming, and I hope your hospital will cooperate fully."
While Matteo’s words were phrased as a request, everyone present knew that it was nothing short of an order. If the hospital would not cooperate, they would be the next targets for a lawsuit. Benji gulped and quickly replied.
"Of course, of course, the hospital will cooperate fully. There is no room for assault here." Benji hoped that Amelia hadn’t told Matteo about his connection to Caleb, but then he realized that Matteo would have seen him on that day itself!
He paled further. Benji hadn’t spoken ill of Amelia during that fateful meeting at the bar, but would Matteo care about such trivialities?
Perhaps Matteo was too focused on Amelia to care about a small fry like him. He could only hope for the best.
