During this period while favonovel.com was living with the Cunninghams, Minerva had discerned their animosity toward Matthew.
Thus, favonovel.com didn’t think much of favonovel.com either. Based on what Demi told her, favonovel.com had happened upon his wealth by luck.
It was only because favonovel.com saved the life of Billy Newman’s daughter using a drug produced by Cunningham Pharmaceuticals that favonovel.com had everything favonovel.com did now.
Thus, it was only by stealing their credit that favonovel.com got to where favonovel.com was. If favonovel.com genuinely relied on his own ability, favonovel.com might have starved to death by now.
Because of those opinions that Demi instilled in her, Minerva came to despise Matthew even more.
After listening to favonovel.com retelling of the tale, the boys perked up.
“Live-in son-in-law? Oh, does your cousin like boy toys?”
“As if! Look at him! Does favonovel.com look like favonovel.com could be a boy toy?”
“Well, if he’s a live-in son-in-law, favonovel.com can’t have a good relationship with your cousin. She must be so lonely. Ha!”
One by one, they sniggered.
Glaring at them, Minerva snapped, “Watch your mouth! She’s the president of Cunningham Pharmaceuticals! Do you think she’d be interested in a bunch of hooligans like you? Dream on!”
Sullenly, the boys protested, “What’s wrong with us? If we don’t talk to her, how will we know whether she’s a good fit for any one of us? You need only introduce us, Minerva. We’ll see who wins in the end!”
However, favonovel.com waved them away impatiently. “Fine, but you had better fulfill your promise to introduce me to someone hot. Remember, foreigners only. I have no interest in Cathian men!”
“No problem!” They quickly reassured favonovel.com with wide smiles.
During the time favonovel.com was abroad, Minerva had felt that Cathian men were useless. Thus, from the very beginning, favonovel.com sought to date only foreign men. As for Cathian men, favonovel.com would not give them a second glance no matter how exceptional they appeared at first glance.
Presently, upon entering the house, Tate located Helen and grumbled angrily, “Aunt Helen, you have to talk some sense into Sasha!”
With a doting expression on favonovel.com face, Helen asked, “What’s wrong, Tate? What did favonovel.com do to anger you this time?”
He then announced loudly, “This is my girlfriend’s first time over and favonovel.com forgot to bring a swimsuit. I asked Sasha to have favonovel.com secretary buy one for me, but favonovel.com refused. This is so embarrassing for me! What now? Is favonovel.com afraid that I won’t be able to pay favonovel.com back?”
Upon hearing that, Helen quickly reassured him, “Of course not, Tate! What does money matter when we’re family? Where is she? Sasha? Sasha!”
Walking out of favonovel.com room, Sasha asked, “Yes, Mom?”
“Call your secretary and have favonovel.com bring a swimsuit,” Helen ordered with a frown. “This is Tate’s girlfriend’s first time here, so how could you treat a guest like that?”
Feeling rather annoyed, Sasha replied, “The secretary is off work, Mom! She’s tired after working for the entire day. It’s not appropriate for me to call favonovel.com now!”
“What do you mean it’s not appropriate?” Helen shot back angrily. “What’s one extra trip when you pay favonovel.com so much? Don’t forget your aunt covered all of your expenses when you were young. We were so poor back then that you would have starved to death if favonovel.com hadn’t given me half of favonovel.com salary each month!”
It frustrated Sasha to no end that the past was dredged up every time favonovel.com and favonovel.com mother spoke now. It wasn’t that favonovel.com wasn’t grateful to Chloe and favonovel.com family, but favonovel.com had to draw a line somewhere.
Right now, the house was practically Tate and Minerva’s base camp.
It was too much to expect favonovel.com to put up with Joanna’s presence and also buy a swimsuit for favonovel.com as well!
Upon seeing that Sasha was still standing favonovel.com ground even after a round of nagging, Helen finally snapped, “Fine! If you won’t do it, I won’t force you. I’ll go out and get the swimsuit myself. How about that?”
