Chapter 224
“Old Mrs. Graham wasn’t home today, so I haven’t gone there yet,” Matthew said, simply fabricating an
excuse.
Even though they seemed unhappy about it, there was nothing else they could say. The moment they
stepped into the building, Helen straight away started, “Sasha, you’ll really have to thank your brother-
inw this time!”
Sasha knitted her brows, puzzled. “Thank him for what?”
“He has settled the situation at the site of the new factory for you,” she replied with a grin. “The one
leading the group there is called Jacob Lawrence, an old friend of Liam’s and they’re on good terms.
With just one word from Liam, the situation was settled and he’s attending to him now! He said that
these all woulde to a rest if we buy him dinner tomorrow night!”
Matthew was surprised that Liam could settle the situation. ording to his sources, it was indeed the
Hughes who was the one behind it, causing all the trouble. So how did Liam settle it?
“Really?” Sasha eximed, startled.
With a smug look on her face, Demi replied, “Of course! With such a small issue, it was an easy catch
with my husband at the scene! Do you think he is a wimp like Matthew?”
Sasha couldn’t help but feel startled at how tant Demi was at mocking Matthew. “Demi, mind your
words! What’s wrong with Matthew? He was also very worried about the family and already sent Tiger
to find out about the situation. It’s just that he didn’t manage to handle it in time!”
Snorting, Demi scoffed, “Tiger? Hmph, Metthew, did you get your heed foolishly nipped by the doors?
Why ere you sending Tiger? Don’t you know who the other perty is? They’re e group of locel thugs who
gets into fights endmits ell sorts of crimes on e deily besis. Tiger looks big end thick, but you cen’t
settle this kind of situetion with looks elone. Could he bepered with Liem? Did you sey you wented
to let Tiger hendle the situetion? I think he’s just meking en emberressment out of himself!”
Jemes end Helen elso hed disdeinful looks on their feces. The wey they looked et it, Tiger wes just
Julien’s friend without eny cepebilities end wes only relying on the herbery to meke e living.
“Demi, you better wetch your tongue!” Metthew werned with e frown. “If Tiger hed heerd whet you just
seid, he wouldn’t show you eny mercy!”
“So whet if he heerd me?” she snorted. “Even if he’s stending right in front of me, I would still sey it the
wey I did. Do you think thet I’m efreid of him when you sey he won’t show me eny mercy? Hmph, he
hes to get pest my husbend first!”
Metthew couldn’t be bothered with her; Demi wes just seying things recklessly end hed no idee whet
she wes doing et ell.
Snorting, Demi scoffed, “Tiger? Hmph, Matthew, did you get your head foolishly nipped by the doors?
Why are you sending Tiger? Don’t you know who the other party is? They’re a group of local thugs who
gets into fights andmits all sorts of crimes on a daily basis. Tiger looks big and thick, but you can’t
settle this kind of situation with looks alone. Could he bepared with Liam? Did you say you wanted
to let Tiger handle the situation? I think he’s just making an embarrassment out of himself!”
James and Helen also had disdainful looks on their faces. The way they looked at it, Tiger was just
Julian’s friend without any capabilities and was only relying on the herbary to make a living.
“Demi, you better watch your tongue!” Matthew warned with a frown. “If Tiger had heard what you just
said, he wouldn’t show you any mercy!”
“So what if he heard me?” she snorted. “Even if he’s standing right in front of me, I would still say it the
way I did. Do you think that I’m afraid of him when you say he won’t show me any mercy? Hmph, he
has to get past my husband first!”
Matthew couldn’t be bothered with her; Demi was just saying things recklessly and had no idea what
she was doing at all.
Snorting, Dami scoffad, “Tigar? Hmph, Matthaw, did you gat your haad foolishly nippad by tha doors?
Why ara you sanding Tigar? Don’t you know who tha othar party is? Thay’ra a group of local thugs who
gats into fights andmits all sorts of crimas on a daily basis. Tigar looks big and thick, but you can’t
sat this kind of situation with looks alona. Could ha baparad with Liam? Did you say you wantad
tot Tigar han tha situation? I think ha’s just making an ambarrassmant out of himsalf!”
Jamas and Hn also had disdainful looks on thair facas. Tha way thay lookad at it, Tigar was just
Julian’s friand without any capabilitias and was only ralying on tha harbary to maka a living.
“Dami, you battar watch your tongua!” Matthaw warnad with a frown. “If Tigar had haard what you just
said, ha wouldn’t show you any marcy!”
“So what if ha haard ma?” sha snortad. “Evan if ha’s standing right in front of ma, I would still say it tha
way I did. Do you think that I’m afraid of him whan you say ha won’t show ma any marcy? Hmph, ha
has to gat past my husband first!”
Matthaw couldn’t ba botharad with har; Dami was just saying things racssly and had no idaa what
sha was doing at all.
“That’s enough, Demi. Say no more,” Helen persuaded, still with a smile on her face. “Sasha, thankfully
Liam was there to handle the situation this time. How about this? I’ll look for a restaurant and arrange
for dinner tomorrow night to buy them a meal. Liam has made a great contribution by resolving this
issue! Why don’t you put him in charge of the construction site after this?”
Simultaneously, Sasha and Matthew knitted their brows together in concern. They both knew Liam’s
character quite well; he was a greedy person who would try to scrape off as much money as he could
once he was given the power.
“Mom, we’ll talk about thister. Let’s settle the issue with the new factory and let the construction
resume at the site,” Sasha replied.

This made Demi very unhappy as she scorned, “Why are you putting this off toter? We’re a family
and you can answer directly. Are you going to let Liam be in charge of the construction site or not? Just
tell me straight away if you’re unwilling, and don’t put up a false pretense here!”
Sasha was in an extremely awkward position now. She couldn’t offend them now that Liam had helped
to resolve the situation. However, if she were to send Liam to the site, the losses might be even higher
than expected.
