Chapter43
Keith noticed it, and he put his arm around Dora’s shoulders and switched positions with her, blocking Matt’s sight. “Second Master Lu, it’s getting. late, go back early”
Watching the two figures, one tall and one short, walk away, Matt sneered, took out the phone from his pocket and dialed.
“Your sister has another dog, and you don’t care about it.”
The moment the call was connected, the first thing he said was this.
Andy on the other end was silent for a while, then said indifferently, “Not willing to give up? Go and get it back yourself.”
Matt was furious and looked into the old neighborhood. “This house is so small and shabby. What is there to be nostalgic about? Do you think she is mentally ill?”
“The Hendrix family is luxurious enough, but I haven’t seen you go back many times.
Andy acted very calm, completely ignoring the anger in his brother’s tone, “She lives in a shabby house now, isn’t it all because of you?”
If Matt had not been so shameless and designed the Acosta family to go bankrupt, even if Dora returned to the Acosta family today, she would still be considered a rich girl, wearing brand–name clothes and shoes, and being picked up by a special car when going out. Why would a family of six have to squeeze into a small shabby house?
Matt gritted his teeth. When something bad happened, he added fuel to the fire. When the crime was exposed, he was held fully responsible. This guy Andy was becoming more and more despicable.

“You’d better keep this attitude. Don’t try to persuade Dora to go back. She won’t pay any attention to you. It’s just a joke for me.”
After saying that, he hung up the phone and drove away.
Andy put down his phone and tapped the table with his fingertips, making rhythmic sounds.
His face was expressionless while he was deep in thought, but he was surrounded by the oppressive feeling of a superior, which made everyone in front of the desk lower their heads and dare not say a word.
Afraid of provoking this moody Shura.
Dora and her brother went to buy five cups of milk tea and two small matcha cakes, and walked home in the evening breeze, not at all disturbed by what had just happened.
Keith took in his sister’s expression, pondered for a moment, and then casually said, “I think Matt seems to care about you.”
Dora paused and smiled, “Brother, don’t test me. I don’t plan to go with him. Since I left the Hendrix family, I won’t go back.”
Having finally escaped from the abyss, she would not be stupid enough to jump into the fire pit again.
As for Matt caring about her?
Maybe it was a little bit, but she couldn’t bear the care of a madman.
When she was five years old, she was still ignorant and longed for the warmth of her family and the protection of her brother. When she was bullied by her classmates in kindergarten, she went to tell Matt about it.
A normal person would think that the brother should stand up for his

sister and run to school to teach the guy who bullied his sister a lesson.
But Matt, this crazy guy, dragged her to practice Taekwondo, saying that as long as she was good at it, no one would be able to bully her.
Then, he taught her personally, facing his “own sister“, a five–year–old beginner, without showing any mercy, causing her to break a rib and stay in the hospital for three months.
During those three months, the only person who took care of her was the maid Betty, and Byron would come to accompany her every day after school. The culprit never showed up, not even a greeting.
When she recovered and was discharged from the hospital, when she met Matt again, he still did not feel any guilt. He righteously complained that she was too weak and suggested that she learn Sanda next time.
Who would dare to want a second brother like this?
Chris Mcbride’s stall plan is proceeding in an orderly manner. Today, Dora’s friend has sent someone to deliver the old stall cart that was gathering dust in the warehouse, and Alberto cleaned the stall cart inside and out.
Chris Mcbride plans to try setting up a stall tomorrow at a crowded place at the entrance and exit of the market. Most of the people nearby are familiar neighbors in the community, which will make it convenient for her to collect opinions and make some improvements.
The stall will be officially opened on Monday, the day after tomorrow, and will be selling at Yredo Middle School.
