Chapter 617


    What Crystal said overwhelmed Matthew, but he did not take it seriously in the end. Regardless of


    Crystal’s attitude toward him, he did not have any feelings for her.


    When he got home, James, Helen, Demi, and Liam were in the middle of an inaudible discussion.


    Without acknowledging or greeting them, he went straight into the kitchen to prepare their meals.


    While he was busy, Helen came in. “Matt, how are things with the constructionpany?” Helen


    pretended to be indifferent and asked while her eyes were fixed on Matthew.


    Matthew chuckled under his breath. They still won’t give up on the constructionpany! Casually, he


    replied, “Things are good.”


    “Good?” Helen was baffled.


    “Aren’t the Jacksons stepping in? They have a share in that 300 million that you returned. Didn’t they


    come and ask for it?”


    “Oh, they did, but thepany had no money in the ount. So, I had a discussion with the Jackson


    Family and we agreed to treat that money as the Jackson Family’s investment in the previous vi


    project we’re co-developing.”


    Helen’s eyes widened. “W-What? The Jackson Family agreed to work together with you? Wasn’t that


    project stopped?”


    Matthew chuckled. “A huge project is now sold at such a low price, so of course they would be willing to


    work together. Even though it was stopped, they are still trying toe up with ways to restart the


    project. I reckon this project will be able to restart within a few days!”


    Thunderstruck, Helen hurriedly left the kitchen. Meanwhile, the others were waiting anxiously outside.


    Seeing Helen, James impatiently asked, “Well? How did he deal with the Jackson Family? Don’t tell me


    he asked Sasha for money to pay off the debt?”


    As Helen sighed, she jealously told them what Matthew had just told her. After hearing what Helen said,


    they were all dumbfounded. Before this, they all assumed Matthew would not be able to handle the


    Jackson Family when they came to ask for money. By then, Matthew would be sent to prison because of


    it. However, no one could have guessed that the Jackson Family would work together with Matthew.


    What was going on here?


    After pondering for a moment, Liam murmured, “If the Jackson Family steps in, this project could really


    be restarted. If it does, it will make a lot of money! That b*stard is lucky. How did he manage to convince


    the Jackson Family to cooperate with him?”


    Anxiously, James asked, “How much do you think this project will make if it is restarted?”


    In a low voice, Liam answered after pondering for a moment, “At least by threefold.”


    James gaped. “That much money? Then why did you stop me in the first ce? If I had the shares and


    discussed it with the Jackson Family, that money would have been ours! Why did you stop me?”


    Instantly, Liam looked embarrassed. “I didn’t know. At that time, the Jackson Family was breaking in in


    full fury, and I was worried we would not be able to handle it. I didn’t know Matthew would be able to


    convince them to work with him.”

    At once, James was frustrated. “This is all your fault. We lost the chance to make so much money


    because of you!”


    Dissatisfied, Demi berated him, “Father, how could you say that? Liam only did that for your own good.


    Anyway, does it make any difference? The shares are in Matthew’s hands, which means you could just


    demand it from him.”


    James red at her. “Easier said than done. After all we’ve done, do you still have the nerve to demand


    company shares from Matthew? Besides, this project is about to make a lot of money soon. Do you think


    he will give it to me?”
