Chapter 596


    Upon hearing that, Jefford and the others were instantly speechless. If the problem could be solved with


    money, it would be the best solution. However, now that they wanted to pursue legal responsibility, things


    could getplicated. As for James, he was starting to panic. Doesn’t this mean that Sasha will get in


    trouble too?


    “President Cunningham transferred the money to Matthew in the name of a loan, so she didn’t go against


    thew,” Sasha’s secretary whispered. The others nodded in agreement because the board also knew


    about this.


    Hearing this, James broke out into a smile. Everything is well as long as my daughter is out of trouble.


    Eric was stunned. However, after a moment of silence, he angrily yelled, “Well… Matthew made illegal


    investments and lost all 300 million… T-That is indisputable…”


    In a calm tone, Jefford replied, “How Matthew makes investments is his own business. Since the


    constructionpany is not Cunningham Group Wellness Herbary’s branchpany, we can’t


    interfere with other’s affairs!”


    Eric scratched his head and muttered, “But his investments have failed and he can’t repay the 300


    million… A-As his creditor, I-I can hold him ountable… right?”

    All of a sudden, everybody fell into silence. Seeing this, Eric immediately felt triumphant.


    “I’vee here today as a creditor to collect the debt. If you are not willing to collect debts, that’s your


    business. However, I’m a very stingy person and I must get my money back! Naturally, it’ll be great if he


    could pay me back. But if he can’t… Well, I’ll make sure he gets sent to jail!”


    Jefford instantly frowned and yelled, “Eric, you’ve gone too far!”


    “Too far?” Eric sneered, “You group of b*stards! All of you used to work with me. Now that you’ve


    be wealthy, you look down on me. What right do you have to say that I’ve gone too far?”


    Jefford and the others were furious but there was nothing they could do. At the same time, Liam, who


    was in the room, smiled andmented, “Mr. Cunningham, it seems that Matthew is doomed this time.


    It may be easy for them to pay nine million but now that there is a shortfall of 300 million, who would be


    able to make up that amount of money for him?”


    Hearing this, Jamesughed coldly. Well, it seems that we’ll have a happy ending this time.


    Just then, Matthew arrived at thepany and as soon as he stepped in, he was surrounded by the


    Cunningham family who were yelling at him to return their money.


    Jefford and the others rushed toward Matthew and whispered, “Mr. Larson, is the 300 million really


    gone? If it’s really gone, just let us know. The… The few of us have some money in our hands right now


    and can collect 200 million for you to fill the shortfall first. We’ll discuss the rest in the future!”


    Matthew immediately nced at Jefford and the others with a grateful expression before he nodded and


    said, “Thank you, but this matter is not thatplicated.”


    In the face of Matthew’s confidence, Jefford and the others let out a sigh of relief. “No matter what, if you


    need money, just let us know!” Jefford said, to which Matthew nodded in reply.


    Then, he turned toward Eric and murmured softly, “Old Master Cunningham, ording to our loan


    contract, you can only ask me to return the money a year from now. It’s only been a few days but you’re


    already asking me to repay the loan; this is nonpliant. Asking me to repay the loan in advance is a


    vition to the contract and you’ll have to pay the penalty!”


    Looking at Matthew, Eric suddenly felt like he was looking into the eyes of an enemy. He instantly gritted


    his teeth and sneered, “A penalty is nothing. As long as you can afford to repay the loan, I’ll pay you the


    penalty right now!”


    Matthew chuckled. “Well then, you have to think wisely. The penalty is 10% of the loan, meaning that if I


    can repay the loan, you’ll have to pay me the 30 million penalty!”


    A shocked expression immediately appeared on Eric’s face. 30 million is not a small amount of money.


    At that moment, Jefford instantly spoke up, “I didn’t say that I want Matthew to repay the loan in advance


    so I won’t take responsibility for the penalty. Eric, if you want him to repay the loan in advance, I’m afraid


    you’ll have to be responsible for the penalty alone!”
