Chapter 25

Everyone started to take out their phones and ask around. Soon, the news was verified and Mr.
Hamilton had indeed gone bankrupt.

Mr. Hamilton, who was initially beaming with joy, instantly fainted on the floor while his heart attack was
triggered. He was then carried out of the venue. Everyone was utterly shocked whereas Sasha looked
relieved. She glanced at Matthew, sighing that this must be retribution.

Looking pale in embarrassment, Eric waved his hand. “Forget it. Mr. Hamilton quits. Who’s the second
bidder earlier on?”

Jason Cunningham replied, “It’s President Wallace. He has 130 million projects—”

“President Wallace has gone bankrupt too!” Matthew cut him short.

“Bullsh*t!” President Wallace leaped in anger. But just before he could continue to curse, his wife called
him.

After answering his phone, President Wallace suffered the same fate as Mr. Hamilton, plopping onto
the floor and was thrown out. Everyone at the scene started to panic. Wasn’t it too coincidental that two
people went bankrupt in a row?

Eric’s face turned grave. “Who’s the third bidder?”

Jason replied, “It’s President Zale. He—”

“I quit, I quit!” President Zale leaped up as well. “I give up!”

“President Zale, I’m afraid you aren’t able to bid even if you wanted to.” Matthew continued softly,
“Because you’ve just gone bankrupt too.”



“What?!” Completely panic-stricken, President Zale immediately took out his phone to make a call. A
moment later, he sat slumped on the floor as well.

The remaining five bosses almost peed their pants in fear. Several of them went bankrupt successively.
It happened either as an unbelievable coincidence, or someone was scheming secretly behind all of
these. But who would have such power and ability to make them lose all their property without them
noticing?

Eric asked again, “The fourth bidder—”

“Old Master Cunningham, please excuse me. I’m leaving!” a boss shouted in a fluster.

“I’m leaving too…”

Everyone else got up at once because they were afraid to stay there any longer.

“Everyone, there’s no need to panic.” Matthew smiled faintly. “The ending is fixed even if you leave. All
five of you have gone bankrupt as well!”

“What?!” The five of them went paralyzed in fear. Now, no one doubted Matthew’s words. Soon, their
phones rang and all five of them were declared bankrupt as well.

“T-This…” Helen looked delighted. “Is this their karma?”

“What karma?” James clenched his teeth. “Someone is definitely pulling strings behind this. Oh my!
How powerful is the wire puller that he’s able to make these eight bosses undergo such a fate?”

“Do you mean…” Helen took a deep breath and continued, “Mr. Newman?”

James nodded slowly while glaring at Matthew. “Matthew that b*stard, he must be hiding something
from us. He even lied to us that he severed ties with Mr. Newman so that we won’t demand any



benefits from him. It turns out that he’s trying to swallow all of it by himself. How hateful!”

Helen’s face turned icy. “No way. That belongs to our family, so we can’t let him get it!”

“Mr. Larson, c-can’t we back out?” a boss pleaded in his trembling voice.

“Back out?” Matthew turned cold in anger. “From the second you schemed against my wife, you should
be dead!”

“How dare you?!” Eric slammed his hand against the table while bellowing, “Matthew, you’re here today
solely to stir up trouble! Do you still respect me as your grandfather?!”

“Hmph!” Matthew sneered. “Eric Cunningham, why don’t you tell us if you still cared for your
granddaughter? For your own selfish sake, you’re willing to sell her off. Even a beast wouldn’t do such
an inhuman act!”

“How dare you talk to me like that?!” Eric jumped up to kick Matthew. However, Matthew slapped Eric’s
face, sending him flying off six meters backward.

“How dare you hit someone?!” The members of the Cunningham Family flew into rage.

“Why not?” Matthew grabbed the edge of the table and lifted it while bellowing angrily, “Come on. Fight
me!” His resounding voice was as loud as thunder, buzzing in everyone’s ears.

Looking at the god-like Matthew, the members of the Cunningham Family shrunk in fear at once and
none of them dared to approach him.

“Call the police! Call the police!” Rage seared through Eric. “Matthew, I’ll definitely throw you and your
entire family in jail for stealing the company’s secret!”



“Pfft!” Matthew sneered again. “Old man, you should use your phone to check, so you’ll know that your
medical company is no longer under your name. You want to press charges against me? Hmph! What
rights do you have to do so?”

“What?!” Eric hastily took out his phone to call a few shareholders of the company. To his despair, he
was unanimously informed that these few shareholders had sold off their shares.

The total of these shares was around 60%, which means that the Chairman of this company was no
longer Eric. Lying paralyzed on the floor, Eric thought how among all of his expectations, none of it
predicted such a situation.

“The company is no longer under the control of Cunningham Group?” Helen was flabbergasted with
joy. “Does that mean that they can’t press charges against us anymore?”

Matthew replied, “That depends on the decision of the new Chairman.”

“Who is it then?” Helen asked anxiously.

In a faint smile, Matthew softly replied, “Sasha Cunningham!”

“What?!” The whole scene was struck with astonishment! The new Chairman of the company was
Sasha?

Even Sasha was stupefied while she stammered, “W-What’s going on?”

“I told them to buy those shares using your name.” Matthew explained softly. “I know that this company
is the fruit of your painstaking effort, so from now on, you’ll be in charge of this company!”

“T-This…” Sasha was caught in a whirlpool of surprise and bliss. “C-Can I do that?”



“Of course, you can!” Matthew gave her a firm nod. “No matter what happens, I will stand by your side
and support you forever!”

Relief washed over Sasha while she gazed at Matthew. He truly contented her with a sense of security.

Matthew chuckled. “Old man, it turns out that your banquet isn’t that fun either! Forget it. We’d rather
go home now. Oh right, old man, please report to work on time tomorrow, which is the first day for
Sasha as a Chairman. If any one of you comes late, you’d be disrespecting her!”

Eric’s blood boiled with rage to the point of triggering his hypertension, which resulted in him fainting on
the spot. As a consequence, the Cunningham Family went into a turmoil.

On the way, James and Helen could hardly contain their excitement. They couldn’t stop calling their
friends and family, announcing that Sasha had become the Chairman. Especially Helen, who called
each and every one in her family.

“Hello, Jane. Sasha has become the Chairman. Yes, the Chairman of Cunningham Pharmaceuticals.
Do you know that? It’s worth more than a hundred million in the market!”

“Jeremy, your niece, Sasha, is now the Chairman of Cunningham Pharmaceuticals. Do you know that?
You don’t? Well, since she’s the Chairman, this Cunningham Pharmaceuticals belongs to us now. Do
you understand?”

“Jacob, I have amazing news. Sasha has become the Chairman, the Chairman of Cunningham
Pharmaceuticals! If you face any problems from now on, feel free to seek my help. Sasha is now the
Chairman, so she can settle anything for you…”

Sitting beside her parents, Sasha was speechless hearing them show off. However, right after they had
reached home, Helen’s expression changed instantly. “Matthew, tell us honestly, how much have you
been keeping from us?”



Matthew was stunned. “Mother, what’s wrong?”

Helen said in anger, “You told us that you’ve cut ties with Mr. Newman but now, you’ve asked him to
pull so many strings again!”

“You’ve been lying to us. How much benefit have you demanded from Mr. Newman without our
knowledge?”

Demi chimed in to reprimand him, “Matthew, although I feel that you’re useless in the past, you’re at
least an honest person. I’ve never thought that you’re also evil and cunning. How could you use our
medicine to seek financial gain? You’re truly shameless!”

“Enough. Stop wasting your time talking nonsense with him!” Simmering with rage, James said angrily,
“Matthew, you have two options.”

“Either you surrender all the benefits you get from Mr. Newman, or we’ll seek him on our own and
explain everything to him. In the future, you’ll have nothing to do with the Cunningham Family at all!”
