Matthew was speechless. “Mr. Cunningham, I’m really not interested in the company. The business
matters that I just discussed with them are completely unrelated to this company.”
Hearing this, James scanned Matthew from head to toe before he solemnly said, “I don’t care what you
discussed with them. From now on, please don’t interfere with Cunningham Group Wellness Herbary’s
affairs!”
Matthew noddedly helplessly in response. “I understand.”
It was only then did James nod in satisfaction. “By the way, you solved the problem with the construction
company wonderfully and I’m satisfied with the outcome. Since the problem has been solved, you can
return my shares to me now. I’ll be following up the projects at the construction company personally to
avoid any accidents.”
Upon hearing that, Matthew was stunned. He never thought that James would be so shameless. When
they asked him to take responsibility for the problem yesterday, they wrote a guarantee saying that
they wouldn’t interfere with the construction company’s affairs anymore. Now that the problem was
solved, James immediately came over to take over the construction company.
With a frown, Matthew asked, “Mr. Cunningham, didn’t we agree that this construction company belongs
to me now? You wrote a guarantee letter—”
“Do you know anything about the construction business?” James yelled angrily. “Do you know how to
manage a company? Do you know how the company runs? Even though you got lucky and managed to
solve the problem this time, that doesn’t mean that you’re capable. Do you think you’ll be able to afford to
pay for the next mistake you make?”
Liam nodded and chimed in, “Matthew, Mr. Cunningham is doing this for your own good! I’ve looked
through the projects at the construction company so I know that they are difficult to handle. Only Mr.
Cunningham will know how to deal with those projects; you’re too young and need more practice.
Besides, with your current capabilities, you’re far from being qualified to take control of a huge company.
Just do what Mr. Cunningham says and transfer those shares to him, and the two of us can also learn a
thing or two about company management from him.”
James nodded in satisfaction and commented, “Matthew, look how sensible Liam is. Both of you are my
son-in-laws but why are you two so different? If only you were half as sensible as Liam, our family
wouldn’t be what it is now.”
Brows knitted, Matthew thought to himself, These two are singing the same tune and it’s obvious they
are just here to take the construction company back. If it was in the past, I wouldn’t care about it but now,
Jefford and the others have invested in the construction company. If I hand the company to James right
now, Jefford and the other shareholders’ investments will definitely go down the drain.
However, Matthew didn’t dare to refuse James outright as James was not a reasonable person. If
Matthew refused him, he would definitely start a huge commotion that would be troublesome to deal with.
After giving it some thought, Matthew nodded and replied, “Okay. Since you’ve already asked for it, I’ll
definitely agree to whatever you say. However, it’s too late to do it in the morning. Shall we go through
everything this afternoon?”
Hearing this, James was overjoyed. He originally thought that Matthew would refuse him so it came as a
surprise when Matthew readily agreed to his request. In that case, everything is going well! The problem
at the construction company has been solved and the company is back under my control. Furthermore,
there is more than 20 million in the company’s account. This is a windfall!
“I was right about you, Matthew. You really are a sensible man! Great; now that everything’s settled, let’s
go home. I’ll ask my wife to cook something delicious for you this afternoon,” James said happily,
showing a rare kindness to Matthew.
Liam hurried to follow them and casually asked, “Matthew, are you pushing back the transfer so you’ll
have time to tell Sasha about this?”
Hearing this, James’ expression immediately turned cold. If Sasha finds out about this, how am I going to
take the construction company back?
He glared at Matthew as he waited for a reply. However, Matthew only murmured, “Don’t worry. I won’t
tell Sasha about this.”
