Chapter 31
In a quiet private room at Gracious Restaurant, Matthew and Sasha were having dinner with Jeffrey. “Director Zimmerman, can you tell me what you know?” Sasha asked anxiously.
Jeffrey glanced at Matthew as he explained with a faint smile, “I heard that someone from your company has offended Timothy Wayne from Eastcliff. As such, he was furious and made these 17 companies cancel your orders!” Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
So it was Mr. Wayne’s doing! Matthew suddenly realized. Timothy Wayne was also a big shot in Eastcliff. Although he was not not as powerful as Billy Newman, he was capable enough to be on equal footing with the Ten Greatest Families. Thus, many were willing to obey his commands.
“Mr. Wayne!?” Sasha’s face turned pale. “W-Who offended him?”
“Ha ha…” Jeffrey glanced at Matthew and slowly said, “Sasha, there’s no point for you to hold anyone accountable now. But don’t worry. I’m close with Mr. Wayne, and I can help you settle this matter.”
Sasha was overjoyed. “Jeffrey, thank you very much!”
“C’mon, aren’t we friends? You don’t have to thank me!” Jeffrey had a smile on his face while his eyes lustfully wandered over Sasha’s body.
Sometime after, Sasha went out. Jeffrey took the opportunity and leaned closer to Matthew as he said with a smile, “Matthew, if you want me to help Sasha, you have to promise me two conditions. First, leave Sasha from now on. Secondly, provide treatment for Young Master Wayne! Otherwise, I will ruin Sasha’s company. Hehe, you should know that her company is in a lot of debt. Once she’s held accountable, she will face jail time!”
Despite hearing the threat from Jeffrey, Matthew looked calm. “Jeffrey, is this your idea or Mr. Wayne’s?”
Jeffrey’s expression changed slightly. He used Timothy’s power to seek help from the seventeen companies to cancel their orders. Then, he used this to intimidate Matthew and Sasha. “Don’t ask so many questions!” Jeffrey continued coldly, “If you don’t agree, I can send Sasha to jail in just one day!”
Hearing this, Matthew said coldly, “Jeffrey, you can confront me if you have any grudges against me, but don’t involve my wife in this! I’ll make you die a terrible death if you do anything to harm her!” With that, Matthew got up and left.
“Matthew, I hope you don’t regret this!” Jeffrey was furious. “If you don’t come forward and provide treatment for Young Master Wayne before ten o’clock tonight, I will make you regret it!”
Matthew didn’t even look at him and went straight off.
At half past two in the afternoon, when Matthew and Sasha arrived at the company, they saw Sasha’s parents, James and Helen. “Dad, Mom…” Sasha was about to greet them when the two of them ran over.
“Matthew, you… Are you trying to stir up even more trouble for Sasha?” Helen rushed up and scolded.
“What’s the matter?” Matthew looked confused.
“You’re acting dumb, eh?” Helen roared, “Did you forget what you did in the hospital earlier today?!”
Curious, Sasha asked, “Mom, calm down. What did Matthew do?”
Helen said angrily, “He raised his voice to the wife of Mr. Timothy Wayne in the hospital this morning. For his own selfish reasons, he also nearly killed Mr. Timothy’s son. Mr. Wayne was so angry that he cut off all businesses from your company!”
On second note, Both James and Helen had in fact gone to see Billy today, but he didn’t make time to meet them. Moreover, Billy even asked his men to let them know that he and Matthew were even now, not owing each other favors anymore. Leaving in disappointment, they head home. On the way back, they learned about what had happened in Sasha’s company, so both James and Helen immediately rushed over furiously.
