Chapter 834 Tate Didn’t Mean It
Jonah looked at Matthew, begging. “Matthew, I… I know that you are on good terms with President Sandel. Can you please help us ask for mercy from her? Tell her that no matter what, the project mustn’t be canceled. If the project can proceed as planned, then… then I’ll transfer you to my place and make you the general manager. How’s that sound?”
Chloe also said hastily, “Matthew, you have to save Tate! He didn’t mean it. He’s just a child. If he gets a record because of this, how will he live in the future?”
“Aunt Chloe, Uncle Jonah. Tate was the one who did all that. How would Matthew even talk to President Sandel about something someone else did? He made so much effort to ensure that your project would proceed smoothly, but you never even thanked him.”
The more Sasha elaborated, the more she felt as if she was losing control of her emotions. “I remember that time after the contract was discussed, you simply left Matthew by the roadside, right? In the end, he had to hail a cab home. Now that you lost the contract, you’re here to beg Matthew again? Who do you think he is?”
Jonah looked extremely awkward now. After the contract was signed, he thought that he had no use for Matthew anymore, so he didn’t even try to be nice after that.
Who would’ve thought that this turn of events would take place? If I know things will turn out like this, I wouldn’t have treated Matthew in such a way.
On the other hand, Chloe leaped to her feet and pointed at Jonah as she shouted, “Jonah, how dare you?! He’s my niece’s husband! How could you treat him like that? He helped you so diligently, and that’s how you repay him? Come here right now!”
With that, Chloe jumped in and wrestled with Jonah.
Helen hastily pulled at her. “Please stop! We’re all family! Stop it! Stop fighting! Sasha, Matthew, please think of something! Do you want to see this family fall into ruin?”
Matthew was speechless. He wasn’t a fool; of course, he could see that Chloe was just putting on an act.
“Okay, I’ll meet President Sandel.” Matthew sighed as he spoke.
Hearing that, Chloe immediately stopped sobbing and said excitedly, “Matthew, you’ll really help us? Oh, that’s wonderful! Matthew, I’m so grateful! Thank you so much! Sasha, what a fine husband you have! I’m so happy for you!”
Sasha gritted her teeth and sent a glare at Matthew. Seriously? You’re going to help them?
Matthew said, “You’re very welcome, Aunt Chloe. Tate doesn’t have a good temper, so you better keep an eye on him when he comes back. If not, if he gets into trouble again, I wouldn’t know how to help you.”
Chloe nodded repeatedly. “Don’t worry, don’t worry. Once this wretch comes back, I’ll make sure he stays put! I’ll ground him and see if he still dares to cause any more trouble! Matthew, thank you so, so much…”
Matthew waved his hand, then walked out of the door with Sasha.
Watching the two leave, Minerva had a cold look in her eyes. “What’s so great about that? He has no business meddling with how my brother should be disciplined! He even told Sasha that my dad didn’t send him home! Talking about people behind their backs! What a cunning villain! Aunt Helen, this son-in- law of yours is really going out of hand!”
Once they made it out of the yard, Sasha spoke furiously. “Matthew, why did you agree to help them?”
Matthew shrugged helplessly. “Sasha, you know what that situation was like. How can I not agree to help? If I don’t agree, they’d cause a ruckus in your house every day. I don’t want to know what sorts of things they’ll do.”
Sasha sighed. “How did Aunt Chloe’s family end up like this? If we went to see President Sandel, how are we going to tell her? Tate did such a stupid thing, and even I feel embarrassed to admit that I know him.”
