Medical Genius's Unspeakable Marriage

Chapter 229

At Liam’s words, James and Helen looked accusingly at Matthew. “Matthew, why are you so reckless? Can’t you talk things out properly? Why do you have to beat them up?

Don’t you know that this would implicate the construction of our new factory? What are we supposed to do now after you’ve offended them?” James chided.

“Not a problem. I’ll just make a call!” he said calmly.

Glaring hard at him, James shouted, “You’re going to ask for backup? Can your friends be stronger than Jacob?

Don’t you know that Jacob and his gang could kill a person without even batting an eyelid? They’re the true big shots, while the shrimps you’re calling are just an embarrassment!”

Matthew couldn’t help but retort, “Dad, do you think that a true big shot who kills without batting an eyelid would resort to such petty methods to make a living?

These are merely a bunch of small-time thugs, making a living by taunting others! You don’t even have to take them seriously!”

At his words, Liam was instantly displeased. “Oh my, Master Larson, look how good you are at bluffing! Are you even aware of Jacob’s status?

Let me tell you, with just a call from him, he could gather more than a thousand people like it’s child’s play. Small-time thugs? Taunting others? Later when they return, I hope you could still continue to bluff like what you’re doing now!”

Both James and Helen were shivering from fear and started blaming Matthew. “Look what you’ve done, Matthew! This was supposed to be solved over dinner but you messed it up so much. How are you going to end it now?

What should we do about the construction site? That’s the hope for the Cunninghams, but it’s all shattered now in the hands of a wimp?”

“Mom, Dad, I’ve done my best!” Liam cried. “Everything was agreed upon, but Matthew spoiled it in the end. I’ve already reminded you not to bring him to this dinner, but you just had to. Look what has come about now. Later on, if anything should happen to the new factory, don’t come looking for me!”

“Sasha, didn’t I tell you not to bring Matthew along?” Helen reprimanded.

“Why shouldn’t I bring him along, Mom?” Sasha asked through gritted teeth. “This concerns our family and what’s wrong that he’s coming along as my husband?

Also, did you see what kind of people they are? They are just a bunch of shameless and disrespectful hooligans. What would I do if Matthew wasn’t around?”

“Sasha, as the president of the company, how could you not understand such a simple rule? It’s normal to take part and join in the fun in the business world.

You’ll be facing all sorts of situations when you entertain other customers in the future. You’ll have to learn to adapt to this, do you understand?” James lectured. NôvelDrama.Org content.

Unable to hold back anymore, Matthew lashed out at him, “Dad, Sasha is your daughter! Those people obviously had ulterior motives and you want her to entertain them? What would you do if anything should happen?”

James wanted to argue, but he couldn’t find the words. Even a fool could tell that Jacob and his gang were harboring evil designs.

“So what should we do now?” Helen cried as she wiped away her tears.

Suddenly, a round of commotion came from outside of the hotel. Thereafter, a loud voice hollered, “B*stard, come out right now! Damn it, how dare you touch me! If I don’t cripple you today, I’ll take after your family name!”

Liam poked his head out and stole a glance. “T-There are hundreds of men outside. Matthew, y-you’ve caused a huge trouble this time,” he stammered in panic.

Having never seen such a scene before, James and Helen trembled in fear.

“Matthew, y-you should leave through the back door quickly,” Sasha urged.

However, Matthew shook his head. “Don’t worry, I’ve called for backup as well and they should be here soon.”

James shouted furiously, “With hundreds of people out there, who could you call for backup to that? Matthew, I’m putting it out now that the Cunninghams have nothing to do with this matter! Sasha, stay away from him or you’ll be implicated later!”
