Not long after Matthew finished unpacking his belongings, he was badgered by Helen to visit Stanley to
finalize the details of the company.
Demi tagged along and spoke with a wide grin on her face, “By the way, Matthew, Liam has always been
in the construction industry. You may want to tell Stanley Carlson to let him start a real estate business
with the new company so that it will be a better fit for my husband’s expertise.
What’s more, a business in the real estate industry is really lucrative too. With Liam’s talent and his vast
connections, I believe the company will be able to bring in a revenue of at least several hundred billion
annually from now on!”
Elated to hear that, Helen nodded repeatedly and agreed, “That’s right. Matthew, since we have the
power to decide what business is to be run by Stanley’s company, make sure you tell him we want it to
be a real estate company, is that clear?”
Matthew nodded at her calmly. After leaving the mansion, he headed straight to Carlson Group. He
stepped into Stanley’s office, only to find Connor Jackson sitting in a corner. Instead of looking dejected
like he used to, Connor seemed to be in good spirits.
Prior to the Six Southern States Medical Conference, the Jackson Family was in a dire situation. At that
time, the Hughes Family was threatening to buy over the Jackson’s family business. The rest of the Ten
Greatest Families in Eastcliff also hit the Jacksons when they were down by absorbing their other assets.
An internal strife within the family started brewing because they had no means to deal with the crisis.
Some of his family members even joined forces to force Connor to step down from his position as the
master of the family. In the end, he had no choice but to surrender.
However, he had secretly invested in Matthew long before the crisis took place. Because of Matthew’s
raging success in the medical conference, he actually ended up with a handsome return from the
investment. Right now, the Jackson Family’s assets had multiplied and their power and influence had
been boosted considerably.
Thanks to his wise investment, not only did he manage to get back his power, he even managed to
elevate the status of his family in the Ten Greatest Families in Eastcliff.
Most importantly, the Hughes were banned from entering Eastcliff as per Billy Newman’s instruction after
the fiasco. In other words, the Hughes Family had no means to take revenge on the Jackson Family at
the moment.
Hence, Connor made use of this opportunity to eliminate the family members who usurped his position in
the family. It was no surprise that the people who once tried to profit from their misfortune back then all
came to offer their apologies and compensation.
Not only did the Jackson Family get back what they had lost, the benefit they gained was even more
than what they used to own. Right now, Connor was treated with much reverence by the rest of his family
members.
At the sight of Matthew, he rose to his feet and scrambled over. “Mr. Larson, you’re here!” he greeted
Matthew excitedly.
With a chuckle, Matthew nodded at him. ”Old Master Jackson, why did you choose to make this trip over
when you can just give me a phone call?”
“Mr. Larson, I won’t be able to show you my sincerity if I only gave you a call! How can I do something
like that after you did my family such a huge favor and saved us?”
Flashing him a faint smile, Matthew responded, “It’s not a big deal. You also had to bear the risk when
you decided to invest in me. You’re only able to enjoy everything now purely because you happened to
make the right choice at that time!”
Connor sighed. “The main thing is that you didn’t hold grudges against me for what I had done back
then! I was such a hopeless scumbag at that time!”
Laughing, Matthew took a seat at the desk. Connor followed him and said, “President Carlson is out
signing an agreement and will be back soon. Mr. Larson, I really have no idea how to show my
appreciation for all you’ve done. So, I’m thinking of offering you 10% of Jackson Group shares to you just
as a token of appreciation. What do you think?”
Jackson Group was the foundation of the Jackson Family. Before the medical conference, the company
had already been worth at least several billion. Its value was estimated to have reached over ten billion
now. 10% of its shares would be worth around one billion!
Matthew was taken aback by Connor’s generous offer. “Old Master Jackson, I simply can’t accept it; it’s
much too valuable!”
