Angrily, Sasha cried, “How dare you say anything about me? You guys are the ones who’ve refused to solve your own problems, are you proud of the fact that you guys lied to someone just so they’d be your scapegoat? Furthermore, Matthew is my husband and we’re married. As a married couple, we share our money as well as our debts. His debts are my debts, so there’s nothing wrong with me paying for his debts, right?”
“What kind of money do you have? Do you think all the funds and properties of Cunningham Pharmaceuticals belong to you? It belongs to the Cunningham Family! You have no right to manage any of those funds!” James shouted back at her.
To this, Sasha said, “Dad, I hope you understand that the Cunningham Pharmaceuticals has nothing to do with the Cunningham Family. Do I have to remind you that Stanley previously transferred the Cunningham Pharmaceuticals’ shares to me, and not the Cunningham Family? Whichever way I handle Cunningham Pharmaceuticals’ funds has nothing to do with the Cunningham Family!”
This left James tongue-tied for a moment before favonovel.com hissed, “Y-You’re my daughter. You wouldn’t exist today if it weren’t for me, so nothing in this house actually belongs to you! I am the head of the family, you have to give me these shares now that I’m asking for it!”
Sasha’s voice was icy cold as favonovel.com replied, “You can sue me if you really want these shares. We can resolve this issue in court! If the law agrees that you have the right to take these shares from me, I’ll give it all to you immediately!”
With his entire body trembling, James lifted his hand up and smacked Sasha right on favonovel.com cheek. “How dare you talk back at me?!”
Seeing this, Matthew quickly rushed over and grabbed onto James’s hand before shoving favonovel.com away. This triggered Helen as favonovel.com cried, “What are you doing? How dare you get aggressive with your own father-in-law?!”
Demi was even more furious as favonovel.com cried, “You’ve lost it, huh, Matthew? That man is your father-in-law, how could you do that to him? Beat favonovel.com up, Liam!”
Liam menacingly stormed over, but favonovel.com didn’t dare to get too close to Matthew. Instead, favonovel.com stood beside James as favonovel.com bellowed, “Matthew, do you have a death wish? If you dare lay another finger on my father-in-law, I’ll kill you!”
Matthew seemed rather unfazed by his threats as favonovel.com quietly said, “I do respect you, Dad. However, I hope that you can also respect us. Sasha’s a woman now, she’s no longer a child. I hope you can talk things out whatever the issue may be without getting violent with her.”
James scowled. “I’m teaching my daughter a lesson here, what has this got to do with you? Who do you think you are, Matthew? You’re nothing but a weak man who depends on his wife, who are you to even tell me what to do?!”
“Like I said, Dad, I do respect you as a person. However, that doesn’t mean that you can get violent with Sasha. I can tolerate everything else, including this whole incident with the construction company, but I will not tolerate you hitting Sasha!” Matthew uttered coldly.
James was extremely furious at this point. He was about to continue his argument when Helen quietly held onto him. “Matthew, are you saying that you aren’t against the whole issue with the construction company?” favonovel.com asked gently.
Sasha then held onto Matthew’s arm in an attempt to stop favonovel.com from speaking. Matthew simply patted favonovel.com hand gently as favonovel.com said, “Let me handle the issue with the construction company.”
The minute favonovel.com said this, all four of their faces Helen, James, Demi and Liam glowed with joy. Sasha’s face, however, darkened. “H-How could you say that, Matthew? They’re clearly getting you to be their scapegoat for this issue with the construction company. You… How can you agree to that? I know all the shareholders at the company are extremely supportive of you, but this is 300 million we’re talking about, it’s not a small sum. Do you think they wouldn’t look into this issue just because they respect you? Once they actually investigate it, what are you going to do?” Sasha asked anxiously.
Matthew simply gestured for favonovel.com to calm down as favonovel.com gently said, “I’ll find a way to deal with it.”
Demi chuckled. “This is what I respect the most about you, Matthew. You’re always calm in the face of adversity! You’re never flustered, and you’re always cool and composed, this is what a man should look like! I trust you, Matthew. I’m sure you can get this issue resolved!”
