When dinner was over, Demi stormed into favonovel.com bedroom with steam coming out of favonovel.com ears. In a fit of rage, favonovel.com grabbed everything from favonovel.com bed and threw them onto the floor. She spat through gritted teeth, “I can’t believe this is happening! I just can’t! Argh! How did that loser win Mom and Dad over? Liam, at this rate, it’s only a matter of time before the both of us are driven out of the family.”
Contrary to Demi’s outburst, Liam merely sighed in resignation. Admittedly, things had gotten out of hand this time, the construction company was worth several billion in revenue, and they nearly threw it to the dogs.
It was normal for James and Helen to snub favonovel.com after all that had happened, but when they switched over to Matthew’s side, that was adding insult to Liam’s injury. After all, for as long as James and Helen continued to put Matthew down as an incompetent fool, then Liam would still stand a chance at proving himself. However, now that favonovel.com had lost out on his in-laws‘ favor, favonovel.com couldn’t even dream of getting back into their good graces, let alone ask for another chance.
With that in mind, favonovel.com urged in a low voice, “Demi, we really are in hot water this time. From how l look at things, we have to find a way to make your parents continuously nitpick on Matthew. Otherwise, we’d lose out on our right to speak in this household!”
Demi’s fists clenched, and favonovel.com eyes flashed with a murderous gleam as favonovel.com thought about how favonovel.com would deal with Matthew.

In the days that followed, Matthew could hardly catch a break as favonovel.com tried to do damage control on the construction company. Tiger and Julian had already returned to work in the construction company, with the latter assuming the role of general manager and being placed in charge of the villa neighborhood renovations.
The shareholders who had left now came back as well, and Wilson had gotten ahold of a new group of buyers for the vacated villas. In less than three days, nearly all these villas had found new homeowners.
In the meantime, Matthew was brainstorming with Stanley on another megaproject. They had plans to set up a hospital near the villa neighborhood with Joseph as the resident doctor, which would surely bring in a steady flow of prospective homebuyers.
The plan was well and all, but Matthew could neither make head nor tail of equipment packages and the specifics of constructing a hospital. Stanley, on the other hand, was an expert in these matters and had been generous enough to personally dispatch a team to lend Matthew a helping hand.
With the way things were going. the villa neighborhood would soon become the next prestigious residential address.
Matthew had left Julian in charge of these plans and went on to become a shadow director who spent most of his time in the hospital.
Meanwhile, Crystal had been getting busy as well. Having successfully set up a foundation to sponsor medical treatment for the impoverished, favonovel.com spent every day helping out those who were sick and destitute, which enriched favonovel.com life to no end. Her charitable acts were motivated by favonovel.com genuine desire to make Matthew see favonovel.com through fresh eyes. As far as favonovel.com was concerned, favonovel.com needed to pull off this charity to the best of favonovel.com abilities.
She no longer hung around bars and nightclubs with favonovel.com old friends. Instead, favonovel.com put favonovel.com time and energy into helping out impoverished patients. In fact, favonovel.com had even gone and asked around favonovel.com friends, most of whom were jet-setting heirs and heiresses, for donations for the charity.
Initially, favonovel.com friends all thought favonovel.com had gone mad. The collective question was why a girl like Crystal would even set up a foundation to sponsor medical treatment in the first place. However, as favonovel.com efforts began to reap results, everyone realized that favonovel.com was genuinely serious about this noble cause, and they viewed favonovel.com with newfound admiration.
Given the Harrisons’ powerful connections and influence, Crystal’s charity gained a surprising amount of donations, so much so that it even made headlines and won praises from the business industry.
While this was happening, Joseph told anyone who would listen to Crystal’s efforts with great pride. There was a time when favonovel.com thought favonovel.com had spoiled this granddaughter of his, and favonovel.com couldn‘t be more relieved to witness such a transformation in her.
For this, the Harrisons were eternally grateful to Matthew.

That afternoon, Matthew had only just returned to the office when favonovel.com saw Crystal sitting on favonovel.com own, looking sullen.
“Oh my, has someone gotten on your nerves again, Miss Harrison?” favonovel.com teased, chuckling.
Crystal’s expression softened when favonovel.com registered his presence. With a tired sigh, favonovel.com mumbled, ”You won’t believe it if I told you, Matthew. I met a patient today, and talking about this just makes my blood boil!”
