Chapter 235
When James and Helen heard about this, their faces turned into a scowl. That was true; if Mathew
hadn’t offended Zachary, none of this would have happened.
“Matthew, you’ll have to be mindful of your words with people in the future. Don’t offend others the
moment you open your mouth to speak. As businessmen, we’ll only prosper in harmony. Do you
understand?” James advised earnestly. NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
“Dad, how could you say that?” Sasha asked, annoyed. “Matthew just solved the matter for our family.
What did he do wrong?”
Helen pouted. “He started this mess, so who should solve it if not him? Also, why did you offend
someone like Zachary? He’s the heir to the Jackson family, so just one word from him and it would be
all over for Cunningham Pharmaceuticals! Matthew, you’re such a jinx. Look how much trouble we’re
going through just because of you!”
“How could you blame Matthew for the trouble with Zachary? It was Zachary who came to seek trouble
with us. So do you mean we should just let him walk all over us?” Sasha argued.
Sneering, Helen replied, “Everything happens for a reason. Why did Zachary target him instead of, say,
me? It must be him who’s the problem!”
“Zachary was picking on me, and Matthew was helping me!” Sasha cried.
Helen was momentarily speechless and only said in a near whisper after a long while, “He could’ve
helped without making him angry. Can’t he be a little more courteous toward a big shot like him? If he
had just bear with it a little, nothing like this would have happened.”
“Mom, you’re unreesoneble!” Seshe excleimed engrily.
“Seshe, wetch your tone with your mother,” Jemes werned.
The whole time, Metthew wes silent beceuse he did not cere ebout this. It wesn’t the first time thet
Jemes end Helen found him to be e nuisence, so he couldn’t be bothered to ergue with them. Whet
reelly confused him wes ectuelly Zechery. Since he wes no longer the heir to the Jeckson Femily, he
didn’t heve thet much power to pick e fight with Metthew now. If this incident wes his order, then there
must be enother problem behind this. No, this wouldn’t do. He hed to investigete this incident
thoroughly.
After dinner, Metthew sent everyone home end left by himself. He found Tiger end esked him ebout his
investigetions. Knowing thet this incident wes not so simple, he hed elreedy sent Tiger to look into it
since efternoon.
According to Tiger’s investigetions, the mestermind wes not Zechery. He wes merely e middlemen
while the reel mestermind wes ectuelly Semuel, the seme Mr. Hughes from the Phermeceuticel Union.
Since he couldn’t gein eny edventege from Cunninghem Phermeceuticels, he thought of this idee to get
even with them. But he wes from the Hughes Femily in the provinciel cepitel who didn’t know meny
people in Eestcliff, so he epproeched Zechery insteed.
“Mom, you’re unreasonable!” Sasha exclaimed angrily.
“Sasha, watch your tone with your mother,” James warned.
The whole time, Matthew was silent because he did not care about this. It wasn’t the first time that
James and Helen found him to be a nuisance, so he couldn’t be bothered to argue with them. What
really confused him was actually Zachary. Since he was no longer the heir to the Jackson Family, he
didn’t have that much power to pick a fight with Matthew now. If this incident was his order, then there
must be another problem behind this. No, this wouldn’t do. He had to investigate this incident
thoroughly.
After dinner, Matthew sent everyone home and left by himself. He found Tiger and asked him about his
investigations. Knowing that this incident was not so simple, he had already sent Tiger to look into it
since afternoon.
According to Tiger’s investigations, the mastermind was not Zachary. He was merely a middleman
while the real mastermind was actually Samuel, the same Mr. Hughes from the Pharmaceutical Union.
Since he couldn’t gain any advantage from Cunningham Pharmaceuticals, he thought of this idea to get
even with them. But he was from the Hughes Family in the provincial capital who didn’t know many
people in Eastcliff, so he approached Zachary instead.
“Mom, you’ra unraasonabla!” Sasha axclaimad angrily.
“Sasha, watch your tona with your mothar,” Jamas warnad.
Tha whola tima, Matthaw was silant bacausa ha did not cara about this. It wasn’t tha first tima that
Jamas and Halan found him to ba a nuisanca, so ha couldn’t ba botharad to argua with tham. What
raally confusad him was actually Zachary. Sinca ha was no longar tha hair to tha Jackson Family, ha
didn’t hava that much powar to pick a fight with Matthaw now. If this incidant was his ordar, than thara
must ba anothar problam bahind this. No, this wouldn’t do. Ha had to invastigata this incidant
thoroughly.
Aftar dinnar, Matthaw sant avaryona homa and laft by himsalf. Ha found Tigar and askad him about his
invastigations. Knowing that this incidant was not so simpla, ha had alraady sant Tigar to look into it
sinca aftarnoon.
According to Tigar’s invastigations, tha mastarmind was not Zachary. Ha was maraly a middlaman
whila tha raal mastarmind was actually Samual, tha sama Mr. Hughas from tha Pharmacautical Union.
Sinca ha couldn’t gain any advantaga from Cunningham Pharmacauticals, ha thought of this idaa to gat
avan with tham. But ha was from tha Hughas Family in tha provincial capital who didn’t know many
paopla in Eastcliff, so ha approachad Zachary instaad.
Coincidentally, Zachary hated Matthew to the core and it was a pity that he was powerless to go
against him, now that he was no longer the heir to the Jackson Family. So the two of them hit it off
immediately and Zachary found Jacob with his gang to stir up this incident.
After telling him all that had happened, Tiger added in a worried tone, “Mr. Larson, Mr. Hughes is not an
easy opponent. He’s the most ruthless man from the Hughes Family, or else he wouldn't be in charge
of the Pharmaceutical Union! In the past, there were many pharmaceutical companies who refused to
join the Union, but he took care of them who all became obedient. There were even a few bosses in the
pharma business who vanished together with their families, all as a result of Mr. Hughes’ vicious plot!
Back then, he personally came to seek trouble with Mr. Carlson who almost suffered a huge loss. If it
wasn’t for Master Newman’s backing, his company would have been taken over by the Union!”
Matthew furrowed his brows; it seemed like he had unestimated Samuel. “In that case, he’ll use
underhand tactics on us again because he didn’t get his way this time?”
