Chapter 985 Pick-up Lines
Helen broke into a relieved smile. "See, Heidi? James may seem like a brute at times, but he means well. Your
troubles are ours to shoulder as well. Now, all you have to do is stay here and get srest. Matthew happens
to be the department director here, so you can look for him if you need any help." With that, she turned to her
husband and said, "James, | won't be going htonight. I'll be staying here with my sister."
James chortled. "That's fine by me. | have nothing much to do for the next few days anyway, so I'll get groceries
and make you ssoup, Heidi. By the way, Matthew, I'll be the one handling the medical expenses on Heidi's
behalf. Have the check sent to me."
Heidi gaped at him. "James-"
Matthew and Sasha exchanged a brief glance, and they were clearly elated to see how much James had changed
for the better. They had ca long way to witness this shift in his demeanor, after all.
It was only after James had made his intentions clear that he waved his hand and said, "Alright then, get some
rest, Heidi. I'll go back and get started on that soup. Helen, be sure to take good care of your sister, okay?" Then,
he turned on his heels and left the room.

Tears welled up in Helen's eyes, and her heart twisted with newfound gratitude for her brother-in-law.
Helen, on the other hand, offered up words of solace. "There, you've completely misunderstood James. He's a
good man at heart. Whatever happened with Chloe and Norman was entirely their fault; they were the ones who
crossed the line first. That's enough crying now, Heidi. You get srest, and I'll be right here. Matthew, Sasha,
the both of you can leave and get back to your work now."
Having heard this, Matthew and Sasha walked out of the room.
Sasha broke the silence with a small sigh. "Heidi loves Leia more than anyone else; she lives for her. How could
the girl do something like this?"
Matthew sighed as well. If he had to be honest, Leia's angst and rebellion were by-products of Heidi's
overindulgent parenting.
Sasha's musings on the subject lasted only a few lines, after which she did not linger in the hospital and instead
walked down the stairs to leave.
She had parked her car out in the yard, and when she arrived, she saw that there were several figures hovering
near her vehicle. From where she stood, she could see two girls standing by her car, posing for photos.
One of the girls then proceeded to perch on the bonnet, thereafter putting on several more poses.
Sasha frowned at this. Okay, it's one thing for you to take photos with my car, but to sit on it for the sake of
looking good for the camera is just plain rude! With that in mind, she sauntered over and pressed on her car key
to unlock the doors, which was just another way for her to ask these people to leave.
Several heads turned at that moment, and when the young men registered Sasha's presence, their eyes lit up
with interest.
"Wow, there's a hottie coming our way!"
"Damn, so this is what they mean by rich, young, and pretty. Look at her outfit! It's entirely designer. And look at
her car-it's a luxury ride!"
"Having a hottie like her as a girlfriend would be a complete dream ctrue!"
"Okay, stop, let's try getting her number first..."
The men were whispering among themselves as Sasha approached. One of them—the better-looking one of the
lot—had an ambitious gleam in his eyes.
He waited until Sasha was drawing close to the car before he quickly walked up to her, then rushed to block the
driver's side door just as she was about to open it. With a crooked smile on his face, he blew his hair away from
his brows and stared at her keenly.

Sasha, however, merely frowned and took a wary step back.
The young man was clearly pleased with himself as he kept his gaze on her and drawled, "Hey, gorgeous. Have |
seen you somewhere before?"
She glowered at him coldly.
Slightly embarrassed by her indifference, he let out a dry laugh and continued, "Oh, | remember now. You're the
girl in my dreams!"
His friends started wolf-whistling from where they stood by the side, as if boosting his morale.
Sasha didn't even bother answering him and instead regarded him with a freezing look.
At the sight of this, he grinned and went on with his pick-up lines. "I was feeling a little off today."
"Clearly," she pointed out witheringly.
He laughed and said, "But then you turnedon again!"
His friends once again erupted into a round of earnest wolf-whistling. The two girls who had been taking photos
with Sasha's car earlier crooned, "Wow, he's so smooth!" "How can anyone be so charming?"
"If he said that to me, | would have married him on the spot!"
