You Have a Good Son-In-Law
Back in the car, Sasha and Natalie were waiting anxiously for Matthew. Seeing that he returned without
any scratches, both of them sighed in relief.
“Master Tiger, thank you so much this time. Really, I’m so sorry to trouble you everytime,” Sasha said
softly.
Not knowing Matthew’s situation, she thought that he managed to solve this issue because he had asked
for Tiger’s help.
Hurriedly, Tiger waved his hand. “President Cunningham, don’t stand on ceremony. It’s my honor to do
something for Mr. Larson!”
A faint smile appeared on Matthew’s face. “Alright, the problem is solved now. Let’s go home. Tiger, go
back to your job.”
Hearing that, Tiger nodded and left with his men.
In a soft voice, Sasha uttered, “Matthew, we should stay out of trouble in the future and not ask for
Master Tiger’s help every time. Even though he made a lot of money with your help during the medical
conference the last time, he’s also helped us out a lot. The more we use someone else’s favor, the more
we would seem like a nuisance.”
Smiling softly, Matthew held her hand. “I got it, my dear wife!”
Blood rushed to her face, and she blushed brightly. “Don’t be so mushy! Natalie is seated at the back!”
“Oh, but I didn’t see or hear anything!” Natalie said, then the couple smiled at each other.
After that, they had lunch at Shanghai Nights restaurant before returning to Lakeside Garden. When they
got home, James and Helen were there. At the same time, an old friend of James’, Stefan Fox, was
there as well.
Matthew had met him before, and he was one of the few true friends James had. In the earlier years, he
had helped out the Cunninghams a lot. What was more precious was, Stefan was a rather easy-going
person, and during the past few times when Matthew had met him, he had never showed any
discrimination toward him, which was very rare.
After exchanging greetings, James said with a smile, “Matthew, Stefan went out with us to look at
business locations the whole morning, so we invited him back home for lunch.”
“Dad, that’s only right,” Matthew answered, smiling. “Moreover, we had yet to invite Mr. Fox to our house
after we moved here. It’s time we do so now!”
James was very happy with his reply because he felt a little more proud when his son-in-law gave an
answer like this.
Chuckling, Stefan chirped in, “James, you’ve got yourself a good son-in-law! I’ve told you before that he’s
an honest lad who respects elders. It’s a rare trait!”
A sheepish smile crept across James’ face. “That’s true. Speaking of it, we were so silly back then and
treated him really badly. Fortunately, this lad didn’t mind it with us. If it were someone else, we would
have received worse treatment!”
Even Helen was wistful. Recently, both she and James had growing satisfaction toward Matthew.
Not only were they no longer prejudiced against him, more importantly, they started to reflect on what
they had done before and were filled with guilt toward him.
However, Matthew merely smiled softly at this because all that didn’t bother him. As long as his in-laws
had no prejudice against him, nothing else mattered to him.
After chatting casually for a while, Matthew noticed that Helen had a worried look on her face, and
several times, she stopped herself from saying something. Looks like she’s having some troubles.
Thinking that, he asked curiously, “Mom, is there anything I can help you with?”
Just as Helen was about to say something, James stopped her abruptly. “No, there isn’t. Matthew, you
must be tired after being out the entire day. Go and rest for now. We’re going out to continue our search
for a storefront,” James said and chuckled heartily before leaving with Helen and Stefan.
In the car, Helen whispered, “James, why didn’t you tell Matthew? Maybe he can help us out.”
With a sigh, he answered, “We owe him so much from back then. Do you still have the cheeks to trouble
him some more? For something like this, we’ll just think of a solution ourselves. There’s no need to
trouble the children over it.”
