Letting out a sorrowful sigh, Sasha gave those shareholders who supported Matthew a call albeit
reluctantly. Before long, those shareholders made a trip back and the signing of the agreement went on
smoothly. To everyone’s surprise, the amount of the shareholders’ investment added up to more than
200 million.
Looking at the agreement which had been signed, James and Helen smiled in satisfaction. “Finally, this
has been settled! We’ve managed to stop the disaster just in time!
Sasha, you will be thankful for us several days later! One of these days, you will realize that we will never
harm you!” Taking the agreement with them, the two exited Sasha’s room looking elated.
Sasha slumped back onto the sofa and started sobbing with her face in her hands. She really felt
exhausted after going through this mess. “Matthew, I’m sorry. I-I can’t offer you any help again in the
end,” Sasha croaked.
Matthew drew her close to his chest gently and chuckled, “I told you not to apologize to me. In fact, it’s
me who has let you down because I didn’t handle this with enough care. I let you get caught in
between your family and I.”
Sasha burst into tears in response to what he said. She wrapped her arms tightly around his neck and
lamented, “You are a fool who is so kind to everyone around you! Otherwise, they wouldn’t bully you!”
Matthew smiled and consoled her, “I’m fine. I think I’ll be able to change how they think of me after the
medical conference is over.
By the time it happens, we will get ourselves a huge house. We’ll move into it and spend time with only
each other before getting a dozen babies!”
Sasha stopped crying and broke into a smile. Giving him a gentle punch, she said while chuckling, “Do I
look like a pig who can give birth to a dozen piglets?”
At the basement parking lot of Cunningham Pharmaceuticals, Helen questioned right after they got into
their car, “James, why did you ask me to get down from the window just now?
Sasha could have agreed to divorce Matthew if you allowed me to continue. Do you think she would let
me jump off the building?”
James shook his head in disagreement and explained, “It would be pointless. You know Sasha’s
temperament very well and no one is sure what she can pull off if she is being pushed too far. What’s
more, there aren’t many days left in Matthew’s life.
He gathered 10 billion from so many people just so he could participate in the medical conference. If he
loses all the money, his life will be targeted by many in Eastcliff!
His doomsday is getting near this time! We don’t even have to force them to divorce each other because
Matthew might be stabbed to death on the streets!”
Helen nodded. “That makes sense. Alas, the only bad thing about it is that Sasha’s reputation will be
affected as she will be a widow.”
James fumed, “We can’t do anything about it. How are you going to convince that stubborn girl to change
her mind? Forget it, she will naturally realize our good intentions when she suffers in the future.”
Helen heaved out a sigh of resignation before she commented out of the blue, “By the way, I’m quite
impressed by Young Master Hughes. He’s the successor to the Hughes Family, which is one of the Ten
Greatest Families of Eastshire and one that has produced generations of talents in the medical field.
I heard that his family owns intangible assets worth hundreds of billions! None of the other Greatest
Families of Eastcliff can be their match. Although one of the grandsons of the Jackson Family was killed
by Young Master Hughes last time, they could do nothing to him other than sending him back to his
family unscathed.
If Sasha marries him, I think we’ll be able to enjoy a similar status as Billy Newman’s in Eastcliff! Hmph,
that Newman guy didn’t even agree to meet us last time. If Sasha really marries Young Master Hughes, I
will make sure he is ousted from Eastcliff!”
James nodded in agreement. “Indeed. Our family will get a meteoric rise to fame and wealth if we can be
the relatives of the Hughes! However, Matthew just offended Young Master Hughes so badly. See how
much trouble that rascal has caused us!”
After some contemplation, Helen spoke softly, “Why don’t we visit Young Master Hughes and apologize
to him? After all, that was something done by Matthew and it wasn’t related to us in any way.
Also, we should make use of the chance to make sure he knows that he has our approval to date Sasha.
If that doesn’t work, we can just arrange for him to have dinner with Sasha and let her apologize to him
personally. How about that?”
