NovelEnglishChapter 407
Shortly after Matthew and Sasha finished moving everything inside, the doorbell rang. When they opened the
door, to their surprise they saw James and Helen standing outside with sullen looks. Their hearts lurched
because they knew the couple had clooking for trouble.
Indeed, Helen exploded as soon as she stepped into the mansion, "Matthew, what a selfish and ungrateful
scumbag you are! Have you forgotten who took care of you over the past three years? How dare you treat us this
way? Do you even have a conscience?"
Sasha frowned at Helen and questioned, "Mom, what're you up to again?"
Helen fumed, "What am | up to? What do you think I'm up to? Do you think that | have no idea Matthew has
received at least one billion in reward from Stanley Carlson?" Truth is, James and Helen had simply agreed on a
random amount when they were on their way here. They wanted to see whether they could bluff Matthew into

Looking equally bewildered, Sasha asked, "Mom, you must have been hoodwinked. President Carlson has only
offered to open a company for Matthew; there's no such thing as a one billion reward! If you don't believe it, you
may go ahead and ask President Carlson about it!"
James and the rest couldn't help but frown at their reaction because it seemed like they really did not receive
such a huge sum of money. Helen waved her hands dismissively at them and said, "There's no point asking him.
I'm sure he won't tellthe truth as you're all in cahoots! Matthew, you said Stanley Carlson only gave you a
company, right?"
Matthew nodded and said, "Yes!"
Helen pressed on, "What about this mansion then? I've asked around and | know this mansion is worth over fifty
million! Matthew, don't tellit just fell from the sky!"
Understanding dawned on Matthew. "Mom, it seems like this mansion is what's been bothering you! Well, this is
a gift from Mr. Jefford and the shareholders of the company. They gavethe title of this house during the
celebration party this afternoon."
Both James and Helen looked flabbergasted. "This is a gift from Jefford and the rest? A-Are you sure? This place
costs over fifty million, which means they had to fork out at least five million each to buy it. Why are they so
generous?"
Lips pursed, Sasha answered, "They received a return ten times their capital this time. Every ten million they
invested, they received over a hundred million in return.
This mansion cfully furnished. I've done sresearch and cto know that just the furniture cost around
four to five million. Of course they are generous because they've got a handsreturn from the investment!
Our family can't compare because we didn't earn a penny at all!”
James and Helen looked awkward as they thought about how they had stopped Sasha from investing 200 million
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmin Matthew back then.
If they had invested the money then, they would have a return of two to three billion now! In hindsight, they had
only themselves to blfor missing out on such a lucrative opportunity.
After a moment of silence, Demi blurted, "Sasha and Matthew, why did the two of you move over here so
secretively? You guys didn't even inform Dad and Mom about this.
Do you guys plan to enjoy sromantic talone at the mansion while you leave Dad and Mom behind at
that terribly rundown old house, which is dingy and humid? Sasha, you used to be very filial. What's gotten into
you?"
Infuriated, Helen added, "Yeah, Matthew, what're you trying to do? Are the two of you going to live in this
mansion by yourselves? Are you going to abandon your dad and | even before we get too old to walk? | should've
known to not pin any hope on you to take care of us when we really reach that state. Pfft, | should be thankful if
you don't poison us to death!"
