"What would you like for lunch tomorrow?" Matthew asked. Erica was pregnant now and couldn't just eat whatever she wanted.

She glanced at him and answered cavalierly, "I'll eat whatever they put in front of me." The chefs Matthew hired were great at their jobs. They stuck to the diet, and the dishes were all delicious. Sweet potato, chicken, walnuts, salmon, garlic, and lamb. Those dishes were good for her and the babies. What was more, she liked what they fixed her a lot.

The man raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect her to be so pliant. "Then get upstairs!"

Then he took her hand and led her to the elevator.

However, Erica struggled out of his grip. "I'll take the stairs." She was so full that she felt she should get more exercise.

Matthew paused and took her hand again, but this time they walked up the stairs together.

In their bedroom

Erica took out her phone and sat on the edge of the bed to browse Weibo. Matthew stood in front of her and said, "Reflect on what you have done wrong regarding Phoebe's case!"

He wanted her to understand that whenever she needed help in the future, the first one she went to was her husband, not another guy.

Erica rolled her eyes at him and said firmly, "I did nothing wrong!" And she really believed that, too.

He stood there, stewing, not being able to do anything about it. Then, his eyes glinted, as if he had just thought of something. He no longer argued with her, but led her to the bathroom instead.

"Hey, what are you doing?" she asked.

"You need to brush your teeth!"

This time, Erica wasn't going to fight him on this. She did have to brush her teeth.

Matthew prepared a glass of water, squeezed toothpaste and handed the toothbrush to her. She took the toothbrush and carefully brushed her teeth in front of the mirror, making sure she got every last nook and cranny.

A few minutes later, Matthew guided her back to the bedroom. After she sat down on the bed, he put his arms on her side and said with a wicked grin, "Let's see if we can work off some of those pounds!"

"What?" Erica couldn't believe her ears. Matthew smiled and said, "I forgot to tell you I work out before going to bed, too." Didn't she already tell him she had a habit of doing exercise before going to sleep on their wedding night? It just so happened that he also had the same habit.

Erica was confused. "But I'm pregnant and I can't exercise now!" "It's okay. We'll just have to be careful!" A year without sex. What a terrible idea! He had to do something.

Without saying anything more, he lowered his head and kissed her on her red lips. Heedless of her struggles, he pressed her onto the bed and did whatever he wanted.

Frightened, Erica found a way out. "Honey, stop! I have twins! What if you hurt them? Cut it out!"

The man touched her belly and said in a hoarse voice, "They're only two months along. I talked to the OB/GYN. They said it's fine."

She answered quickly, "They said no such thing. The doctor said you'd better hold off on sex for at least three months. Don't go against the doctor! What if you hurt the babies?" 'Wait! We were quarreling just now. Why is he trying to have sex with me now?' she wondered.

Matthew clenched her hands on his chest. "It all comes down to you. If you're worried about the babies, you can help me in other ways!"

"What? How?" Why did she feel that he was up to no good?

The man's eyes fell on her cherry lips. "Let me teach you." He began to describe what he wanted, and her eyes went wide and her cheeks darkened from embarrassment. He'd deliberately held off on that so she wouldn't be frightened. But now...

Erica had never seen an adult movie before, but listened as he described what a blowjob was. She never knew that they could do it that way.

So that was why he wanted her to brush her teeth!

Meanwhile, in the living room of the Su family residence

Slap! Camille hit the woman standing in the middle of the living room. The victim's face was red, and you could see the imprint of a hand forming on her cheek.

Phoebe stared at the angry woman in disbelief. "Camille, you hit me?"

"Yes! I hit you because you're an idiot!" Camille was really pissed off at her sister!

Fanya sat on the sofa, tapping out messages to her work group on WeChat. She acted as if everything was fine, as if she didn't see her eldest hit the middle child.

Tears in her eyes, Phoebe bit her lower lip and asked unhappily, "What's going on, Camille? Why are you acting like this?"

"You asked me why? Congratulations! You're the talk of the town. Everyone in the city knows Erica's going to sue you! And they're going to blame it all on us. Where are you going to get ten million dollars, Phoebe Su? What do you have to say for yourself?" Camille just couldn't understand why Tessie and Phoebe were so stupid. She felt like she was the only one of the siblings with any brains. How could they be her sisters?

Phoebe took the opportunity to put some distance between her and Camille. "Who would have thought that bitch Erica could sue me? Using my own work against me? That fucking bitch!" she said, hatred lacing her tone. "Matthew lets her get away with too much. He loves and spoils her. If he kept her on a shorter leash, she wouldn't be such a thorn in my side."

"So you're just as stupid as she is! You can't keep your cool around Matthew. Before his death, Nathan had asked Matthew to take care of you and your baby. You could have totally torn down Erica, and married Matthew if you just played your cards right. But now? Erica's doing well, and pregnant with his kid. Look at you! Once the lawsuit is filed, you'll pay her ten million dollars as compensation. You'll be ruined!" Camille looked at her sister with disgust in her eyes.

She once had everything, and she still lost to Erica.

Phoebe was not convinced. "Since you think I'm stupid, what have you done for us lately? Why don't you try to get her to drop the charges?"

She didn't believe that Camille, who had nothing to do with Matthew, would be better than her!

She remembered that when Camille saw the snake on her bed, she was just as scared as her. But she was good at pretending and took control of the situation.

A malicious look appeared in Camille's eyes, which made Phoebe shudder uncontrollably.

After what seemed like forever, Camille told her sister, "I'll do it myself. I don't think Matthew even likes you anymore. I'll marry Matthew, and drive Erica out. Of course, that means that he is mine! You won't see any benefit from it."

If she married into the Huo family, she'd be one of the richest and most powerful people in Y City. She'd be the new Mrs. Huo, and every woman in the city would want to be her.

Phoebe had already given up all hope of being Mrs. Huo. "Whatever!"

"But from now on, you have to listen to me. You must do whatever I ask you to do!" Her mother said that Camille was the last hope of the Su family. She couldn't screw this up. Not this time!

Phoebe asked with uncertainty, "Are you seriously going to use me as a pawn?"

"Of course! You've messed things up royally." Camille didn't hide her thoughts at all. If she used Phoebe well, she could get whatever she wanted.

Seeing the unwillingness in her eyes, Camille sneered, "You can't say no to this. You've made too many mistakes already! You failed to snare Matthew. Now that Erica's carrying his kid, he doesn't give a damn about the Su family. So yes, I'm using you. If you don't like it, then get out! We've got the ten million, but you have to earn it. Do this, and the lawsuit's as good as paid for. Defy us, and just see what happens."

It was ten million dollars. Even if Phoebe sold her body, she couldn't get it in so short a time!

Phoebe knew very well that Erica would sue her. As long as Matthew didn't intervene on her behalf, she would definitely owe ten million dollars!

She didn't think that Matthew would help her again, so she had to find a way out of this. And that way out was her family. "Fine, I will do whatever you tell me to do!"

Hearing that, Fanya stood up slowly from the sofa and tidied her clothes. "Don't get upset, Camille. Head upstairs and get some rest."

Sometimes, a woman's beauty was also a useful weapon.

Camille was the most beautiful and graceful among the three sisters. She was always proud of her beauty.

"Okay, Mom." Hearing this, Camille didn't spare her sister another look. She ignored Phoebe and ascended the stairs.
