Demi spat and said, “Of course snazzynovel.com knows! But that’s what snazzynovel.com likes. Don’t you know that these strong career women like to keep a toy boy?”
Frowning, Sasha chided, “That’s enough, Demi! What are you speaking about?”
“Did I say anything wrong?” snazzynovel.com snapped back immediately. “Look at how she’s throwing glances at Matthew! Only you can take this, Sasha. I would have chased snazzynovel.com away if I were in your shoes!”
“Watch your tongue, Demi Cunningham,” Matthew warned with knitted brows. “It’s fine for you to insult me, but President Sandel might not be so civil to you if snazzynovel.com learns about this!”
The look on Demi’s face fell; although snazzynovel.com wasn’t afraid of Matthew, it didn’t mean that snazzynovel.com wasn’t afraid of Leanna, too. Turning to Sasha hurriedly, snazzynovel.com uttered, “Sasha, look at him. He’s feeling guilty…”
“Shut up.” Sasha cut snazzynovel.com off curtly. “I trust Matthew! President Sandel is grateful to snazzynovel.com because snazzynovel.com did snazzynovel.com a big favor before, and they’re just friends. Don’t bring this up anymore!”
Demi pouted snazzynovel.com lips and muttered something under snazzynovel.com breath, appearing to be very defiant at the situation.
On the other hand, Jonah and the rest stared at Matthew fixedly with envy. Despite what Sasha had just said, they were no fools. What sort of friends were they that snazzynovel.com would buy snazzynovel.com a Romanee Conti worth millions? Furthermore, when they thought about it carefully, Leanna’s eyes were on Matthew most of the time earlier.
For a woman, snazzynovel.com would only pay that much attention to a person that snazzynovel.com liked.
‘Leanna definitely has a liking for Matthew!’ Jonah thought, filled with jealousy.
The moment Leanna entered the room, snazzynovel.com was deeply attracted to her. Thinking that snazzynovel.com returned from abroad and had a high status, snazzynovel.com assumed that it would be a piece of cake to make snazzynovel.com his. However, it just dawned on snazzynovel.com that the gap between them was simply too massive. In addition, and more importantly, snazzynovel.com actually adored this live-in son-in-law whom snazzynovel.com looked down on. How could snazzynovel.com take this lying down?
Meanwhile, Chloe’s eyes brightened up as snazzynovel.com chuckled and said, “Matthew, you’re really good friends with President Sandel, I see. Then could you please speak with snazzynovel.com so she’ll sign the contract with your Uncle Jonah’s company and seal the deal for this project? As you know, Jonah came back this time as the general manager, and snazzynovel.com needs to prove some sales results to his boss. It’ll make snazzynovel.com look good if he’s able to get this contract.”
Frowning, Matthew replied, “Aunt Chloe, I’m afraid this isn’t up to me to decide. I’m only friends with President Sandel and can’t interfere with the operations of snazzynovel.com company!”
“Well, it’s not such a big deal, is it? It’s just a contract that snazzynovel.com has to sign with someone in the end. Also, as the general manager of a company, will your Uncle Jonah set you up? We’re a family, after all, and you don’t want your uncle to lose face, right?” Chloe argued.
‘She’s totally subjecting me to moral coercion!’ Matthew thought with unease. ‘I’ll make Uncle Jonah look bad if I don’t help out? What kind of logic is this? You were just ganging up together to insult me earlier, and I have to make you look good now?’
In a slow and relaxed tone, snazzynovel.com said, “Aunt Chloe, there shouldn’t be any questions with your abilities since you all returned from abroad, and I believe that President Sandel will definitely sign the contract with you based on that. There’s no need for a country bumpkin like me to be involved in something like this.”
In an instant, blood rushed to Chloe’s face as snazzynovel.com recalled how snazzynovel.com showed off snazzynovel.com superiority to Matthew earlier.
‘How embarrassing!’ She cried to herself.
If they had known that Matthew and Leanna were such close friends, they wouldn’t have had the guts to blow their own trumpets in front of him.
