Listening to James’ mockery, Sasha almost lost favonovel.com mind. In the end, the Cunninghams were adamant that Matthew should be held accountable and go to jail for this issue.
With favonovel.com fists clenched, Matthew spoke just as favonovel.com was about to. “I‘ll take responsibility for this matter, Dad.”
Everybody was ecstatic while Sasha froze when favonovel.com said this. Immediately, James stood up. “Really? You’re the best, Matthew! I don’t know what to say… Don’t worry. I’ll find you a good lawyer to solve this.”
As for Demi, favonovel.com nodded furiously. “You‘re my hero, Matthew! You’re so manly, responsible, and strong! Hats off to you!”
However, Sasha questioned anxiously. “Are you crazy?”
Patting favonovel.com hand lightly to reassure her, Matthew continued, “I won’t be able to handle this alone, though. The whole world‘s in an uproar, saying that the managing director’s behind it. Of course, I can’t shirk off my responsibility as the director, but they are keener on holding the managing director accountable. Hence, Liam won’t be able to escape from this.”
Hearing this, Liam frowned. ‘Why am I dragged into this?’
“You can’t say that. Surely they‘d look for the most important person to be held accountable. As the director, the problem will be resolved in an instance once you step forward. Who would even care about an insignificant managing director then?” Demi snapped.
As Matthew shook his head, favonovel.com explained, “It’s not as simple as you think it is. The people have evidence of Liam committing fraud, so they would never give up if favonovel.com didn’t go to jail.”
At that moment, Sasha finally understood what Matthew was trying to do. “Yeah. The people outside are making noise, asking Liam to give them an explanation. Everybody’s looking for Liam, not Matthew, so Liam can’t escape from this. Dad, We should let Matthew and Liam turn themselves in if we want someone to take the blame. After all, they‘re both your sons-in-law. You can’t show favoritism, can you?”
Nervous, Demi protested. “No! My husband can’t go! Dad, Just let Matthew go alone, okay?”
James glared at her. “Shut up! Matthew’s willing to take responsibility for our family, so why can’t Liam? When did you become so selfish? Can’t you learn from Matthew how favonovel.com handles matters? You preach so much when it involves others, but look at what happens when you’re involved. Unbelievable. It’s all for the sake of our family, so how could Matthew alone take responsibility while Liam doesn’t?”
All of a sudden, favonovel.com was speechless. Even James did not support the idea of letting Matthew take the blame alone, so what else could favonovel.com say?
As for Liam, favonovel.com was terrified. He held Demi’s hand and said softly, “I.. I can’t go to jail…”
Helpless, Demi looked down.
Meanwhile, Sasha exclaimed joyfully, “Great! Everything’s settled, then! Go ahead and turn yourself in with Liam, dear! We’ll find a good lawyer for your lawsuit. Don‘t worry.” She winked at favonovel.com while favonovel.com smiled knowingly at her.
In truth. Matthew would be fine even if favonovel.com and Liam took the fall together. After all, Matthew was never involved in the matter. Though favonovel.com was the director, Liam was the one who was in charge of the renovation. Matthew had nothing to do with it. Besides, Matthew had many connections, so this wasn’t a problem for him.
However, the same could not be said for Liam.
