Chapter 44


    At this moment, someone suddenly ran over to the door. It was Matthew’s brother-inw, Liam. “Dad,


    Mom, it’s gettingte. Let’s go have lunch,” Liam said joyfully.


    Seeing Liam, Helen’s expression eased up. “Have you made the arrangements?”


    “Yes. I ordered your favorite Chinese cuisine.” Liam was trying to tter her.


    “Aww, Liam, you’re so sensible. I feel more relieved with you in thepany from now on!” Helen


    nodded in satisfaction. “Dear, let’s go. Let’s have lunch!”


    James put down the files without even looking at Matthew or showed consideration for his feelings.


    With hands behind his back, James left with Liam and Helen with an arrogant look on his face.


    Matthew was annoyed. I’m also their son-inw, but my presence was an embarrassment to them,


    while Liam was praised as being sensible. The difference in treatment is too huge! However, he had


    long been used to these. Liam loved to tter them, so James and Helen liked him a lot. To Matthew,


    none of these matter; the most important thing was Sasha’s attitude toward him.


    Suddenly, Liam came over with a triumphant smile. “Matthew, stop fooling around. Sasha is out.”


    Matthew frowned. “Where did she go?”


    “She went to the bank to negotiate some business.” Liam smiled as he continued, “Matt, why are you


    looking for Sasha? If there’s anything you need from her, you can call me. I am now Sasha''s personal


    secretary and driver!”


    “What?” Matthew asked with knitted brows.


    “Sasha believes in my abilities and hired me to help her!” Liam smiled. “So, if you have any issues in


    the future, just let me know.”


    Matthew’s face turned slightly cold, and he gave Liam a deep look full of doubts. To be honest, he


    didn’t quite believe Liam’s words. Why would Sasha ask Liam to be her secretary?


    “Matt, we are going to have lunch now. Don’te to thepany if you don’t have anything urgent.


    Look at the shabby clothes you’re wearing. You’re negatively affecting thepany’s image!” Then,


    Liam left triumphantly.


    Matthew thought for a while before taking out his mobile phone and called Sasha. He wanted to ask


    her about this. Despite a few attempts in calling, Sasha didn’t answer her phone. She was probably in


    the midst of discussing business matters.


    With no other choice, Matthew left Cunningham Pharmaceuticals alone. He was looking for a ce to


    eat when a BMW with loud engines passed by him suddenly. Fortunately, Matthew reacted quickly


    enough, otherwise he would have been hit.


    The BMW stopped in front of Matthew. There were two people in the car—a man and a woman.


    “Dear, you are the best. You brought them here because you know that I like Chinese cuisine. Thank


    you, dear. Muacks!” The girl acted coquettishly. She was dressed revealingly, exposing her fair and


    slender thighs. She had heavy makeup on, and she looked quite beautiful.


    Matthew looked at her with a cold expression. This girl was none other than ine Ziegler, the former


    beauty in his ss. In high school, Matthew had a sense of inferiority. When he reached puberty, heRêAdt??St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only


    had a crush on ine. At that time, a ssmate of Matthew had a crush on ine as well and asked


    Matthew to help him send a love letter to her. This was initially a trivial matter. However, his friend did


    not write his name on the letter, so others mistakenly thought that Matthew was the admirer.


    Plus, that ssmate wouldn’t admit that he was the one who sent the letter, so Matthew took the


    me. Then, ine’s friends told everyone in the school about it. One time, ine even threw a ss


    of water at Matthew in public and rasped, “Matthew, who do you think you are? Do you think that a


    trash like you deserves to have a date with me?”


    From then on, Matthew got the nickname ‘trash’ in school. ine also became a sore spot in Matthew’s


    heart. To his dismay, he actually met her here today!


    Seeing ine, Matthew couldn’t help but think of his two buddies in school. During his schooling years,


    he had only two friends, who were so close to him that they were willing to take a gunshot for him.


    Unfortunately, after graduation, they gradually lost contact.


    Now that he saw this former ssmate of his, he couldn’t help butment how fast time flew. How great


    it would be if those two buddies were still around! Thinking of this, Matthew suddenly had an urge in his


    heart to return to the ce where he used to live; he wanted to get in touch with his twopanions


    again.
