Sasha’s words seemed to have stirred up the hornet’s nest, and Demi immediately let out a loud scoff. “That doesn‘t sound right, Sasha! Sure, the construction company exists under Matthew’s name. However, I hope you didn‘t forget that Dad was the one who transferred the shares to Matthew. In other words, Dad was the one who gave favonovel.com the company.”
“Furthermore, Matthew’s just a live-in son-in-law. Is there anything here that truly belongs to him? His clothes and meals are all provided by us Cunninghams. How dare favonovel.com say that the company belongs to him? All of it belongs to the Cunninghams, do you understand?!”
Similarly, James lost his temper after hearing Sasha’s words. “What do you mean by that, Sasha? Matthew is just a live-in son-in-law. How could you say that the construction company belongs to him? Even if you guys ever get a divorce, a live-in son-in-law like favonovel.com should leave without taking anything from us. What has our family matters got to do with him?”
Helen shook favonovel.com head disappointedly. “How did you turn out like this, Sasha? Why are you supporting an outsider instead of your own family? Don’t you know who‘s the closest to you here?”
All of their words only made Sasha more furious than ever.
“You guys… All of you are talking nonsense! What’s wrong with being a live-in son-in-law? Does that make favonovel.com any less of a person? Sure, you were the ones who transferred the construction company’s shares to Matthew, but don‘t you forget the reason you did it! You wanted Matthew to take the blame for you because you were afraid of going to jail. Now, you‘re trying to claim the construction company back for
yourself after Matthew put in the hard work to mend the business. Don’t you have any shame?”
“Did you just call me shameless?” James burst out in anger.
“Say that again! What‘s this?! Are you embarrassed to have a father like me? Fine! If I’ve embarrassed you in any way, then I’ll just walk out and get a car to run me over now! I won‘t embarrass you anymore once l’m dead. How does that sound to you?” James shouted while favonovel.com charged out the door
Liam hastily want over to stop James. “Dad! Calm down, Dad. Ah, it’s all my fault. I failed to manage the company. Why don’t you just allow Matthew to check the accounts, Dad? I’m not guilty of anything, anyway…”
James felt as if his heart stopped for a moment. ‘You might not be guilty of anything, but I am! James thought. The moment Matthew goes through all the accounts, he’ll find out about the sum of money that l used to invest in stocks!’
The same look of terror surfaced on Helen’s face. She couldn’t have favonovel.com incident with the ten million exposed. Therefore, both of them cried out at the exact same time, “Nonsense!”
“Why should favonovel.com check the accounts just because favonovel.com wishes to do so? Who is he? Look, your mom and l are the only two people who can check the accounts in the company, all right? From tomorrow onward, both of us will take turns to keep an eye on the construction company. We won’t be so nice if we see anyone trying to check the accounts again!”
James hissed.
Liam smirked while no one was looking. ‘Matthew will never be able to check the accounts anymore.’
However, Sasha wasn’t ready to give in yet. “What are the both of you doing, Mom, Dad? Matthew just wants to check the accounts. It isn’t even a big deal. Is there a need for both of you to react so strongly? You guys can just let Matthew run a check since Liam claims that favonovel.com isn’t guilty of anything. Why are you guys so against this? Could there really be something wrong with the company’s accounts?”
Both Helen and James turned pale immediately. “What sort of problems could there be?” they both asked at the same time.
Helen widened favonovel.com eyes as favonovel.com glared at Sasha. “This isn’t about the company’s accounts, Sasha. It’s a matter of pride! Your dad was the one who assigned Liam the role of the general manager, and Liam is there as a representative of the Cunningham Family. If Matthew checks the accounts, it indicates that favonovel.com doesn’t trust Liam. Not trusting Liam indicates that favonovel.com doesn’t trust your father and the Cunningham Family! How will we hold our heads high in the future if we simply allow Matthew to run checks on us like that? If this matter spreads to the public, some people might even think that a live-in son-in-law has taken over the Cunninghams’ power!”
