Liam urged Demi to keep this a secret and forbid favonovel.com to let Sasha find out about this. ‘The biggest threat to this transaction is Sasha. As long as favonovel.com doesn’t find out about this, everything will go really smoothly.’
At the same time, Liam continuously kept an eye on Matthew to prevent favonovel.com from secretly telling Sasha about the transaction. During the whole period, favonovel.com acted as if favonovel.com was preventing a thief. However, Matthew didn’t tell Sasha about this at all and it was as if favonovel.com had accepted his fate.
Sasha went to the office for work that afternoon. Seeing this, Liam and James instantly ran up to Matthew to bring favonovel.com to go through the shares transfer process before rushing to the law firm. Just as they were going through the procedures, Liam suddenly received a call from his friend.
“Liam, are you still at the construction company?”
“I’m about to head there soon,” Liam answered. “What’s the matter?”
Upon hearing that, his friend immediately warned, “Liam, it’s best that you don’t go back there.”
Liam was shocked to hear this. “Why?”
Agitated, his friend replied, “I just received news that the construction company is in trouble.”
Liam smiled and commented, “Are you talking about the 300 million investment? Don’t worry; it’s been settled. Everything is fine now. I have to say, the updates you receive are really slow.”
However, his friend was still panicking. “I’m not talking about that. I’m talking about something else. I know that the 300 million investment that you made has returned to the construction company! However, the money you used to return the loan from Cunningham Group Wellness Herbary is the same money!”
“That’s right,” Liam answered. “Is there a problem? The money still belongs to the construction company anyway.”
Liam’s friend hurriedly explained, “That’s the problem! The Jackson family owns some of the construction company’s shares. The money that was returned to the company is in fact money from the Jackson family’s previous project, which means some of that money belongs to the Jacksons. Yet, you used this money to pay off your loan from the Cunningham Group Wellness Herbary. This means that you’ve used the Jackson family’s money to pay off your debts. The Jackson family has already heard about the news and are going to the construction company to cause trouble!”
Liam was completely dumbfounded. “W-Which Jackson family are you talking about?”
“Which other Jackson family do you know? Of course I’m talking about the Jackson family that is one of the Ten Greatest Families in Eastcliff! There’s no need for me to be so panicked about the other Jacksons! This family we’re talking about is not easy to deal with, which is why I called to tell you to run away as fast as you can. It’s best if you directly leave the construction company and not get involved in this matter. I’m sure you’ve heard about the Jackson family before. If this matter turns serious, the Jacksons will definitely send you to jail for more than ten years. You might even lose your life!”
Upon hearing that, Liam was shook to the core. A moment ago, favonovel.com was thrilled and felt that everything was under his control. Who would’ve thought that the situation is so troublesome. ‘I can’t believe that the Jackson family is involved in this. In that case, it’s a serious problem!’
He hurriedly ran over and stopped James, who was about to sign the papers.
“Mr. Cunningham, we don’t want those shares anymore,” Liam quickly said.
James was confused. “Why? I’m about to sign the papers. What nonsense are you talking about?”
However, Liam couldn’t say it directly in front of Matthew so favonovel.com snatched the pen in James’s hand and solemnly announced, “I think that Matthew has done a great job and we should give favonovel.com a chance. Mr. Cunningham, you’re getting old so it’s best you don’t tire yourself with the company’s business. Let’s go!” As favonovel.com spoke, favonovel.com forcefully dragged James away.
James, on the other hand, was enraged. As soon as they walked out of the room, favonovel.com slapped Liam hard on the face and yelled, “Have you lost your mind? I was about to sign the papers but you dragged me out of there. What are you trying to do? Are you planning to help Matthew take away all of my family’s fortune? What benefits did favonovel.com promise you?”
Liam blushed in embarrassment. After favonovel.com made sure Matthew did not follow them, favonovel.com hurriedly whispered, “Mr. Cunningham, I did that for your own good.”
With that, Liam told favonovel.com about the Jackson family and when James finished listening to his explanation, favonovel.com was completely dumbfounded.
“Let’s go!” James immediately ran out of there and gave up on getting the construction company back.
