Chapter 260

Much intimidated by Matthew’s threat, Demi trembled and she was deterred from making any further
comment once she thought of Matthew’s friendship with Tiger.

In the end, Liam decided to yield to Matthew.

He got down on his knees and held his head low when he apologized, “Matthew, I’m sorry. I-I’ve made a
mistake…”

Matthew sniggered disdainfully as he couldn’t be bothered to respond to Liam who was just a piece of
crap.

Demi, who was enraged, looked grim thinking that Matthew must have deliberately hatched this plan to
sabotage them.

She hauled Liam up to his feet and snapped furiously, “Well, now that my husband has already kneeled
down and apologized, are you happy now?”

Sasha, who finally had her grievance avenged, commented icily, “He brought that upon himself! He only
has himself to blame for gloating over people’s misfortune!”

Liam did not say anything to refute her with his teeth gritted whereas Demi said crossly, “Just cut the
crap! Is your husband any better? Yes, my husband did that but at least he’s better than someone who
only knows how to brag! Your husband has been telling everyone that he will get a 300 million
compensation for our family. What happened to it now? Did the Jacksons pay him a dime?”

James and Helen glanced over at Matthew. The thought of Matthew claiming that he would ask the
Jacksons for compensation was hilarious to them.

The Jacksons were one of the Ten Greatest Families of Eastcliff. How could they be willing to
compensate them?





Matthew muttered, “They did!”

“Huh?” Helen was stunned first before asking out of instinct, “How much did they pay you?”

“300 million!” Matthew announced.

Helen and the rest first exchanged looks among each other before they soon roared with laughter.

“Matthew, are you so traumatized by them that you have lost your mind? Compensating you with 300
million? Why did they need to do that? Do you really think that they’d look at you in that kind of light?”
Demi said in between laughter.

Sincerely, Matthew emphasized, “It’s true. The Jacksons really promised to pay me 300 million
compensating for the loss of reputation our company and our family suffered as well as our damages of
distress! Dad, Mom, this sum of money belongs to our family and I am thinking of giving the money to the
two of you…”

Helen cut him off by saying, “No way, please don’t give it to us! You can keep the money to yourself and
please don’t give us a dime because we aren’t worthy of that money! Ha ha ha, do you guys want the
money?”

Liam and Demi, who were laughing heartily, shook their heads and said, “Matthew, just keep the money
to yourself. We don’t want a dime from you!”

James shook his head and sighed regretfully. “Matthew, do you know why you’re so detestable? It’s
because you’re too cocky, too presumptuous and you brag too much! Even if the Jacksons did accuse
you wrongly, you should consider yourself lucky to have an apology from them. Why would they pay you
300 million? Is the money in joss paper?”



Once again, the other three let out a round of guffaw because they did not believe the Jacksons would
compensate them with a sum of 300 million at all.

Looking indignant, Sasha held one of Matthew’s arms and confronted them through gritted teeth, “What
are you guys laughing at? Why wouldn’t they pay us the money? I’m sure what Matthew said was true
and I believe him!”

Demi laughed out loud and remarked, “Sasha, you’re so pathetic. Do you really believe something so
illogical? Do you really think the Jacksons would pay him 300 million? Tell me why did they need to do
that?”

James waved his hands dismissively and said, “Well, that’s enough of embarrassment for one day. Let’s
go! What’re you guys waiting for? Do you really think they will give you the money now?”

The rest of them burst out laughing again before turning around to head toward the exit.

Just as they reached the door, they saw a group of people from the Jackson Family coming their way
and they were led by Scott.

They were carrying someone whose face was fully covered with blood on a stretcher—Harvey.

Scott looked anguished but when he saw Matthew, he tried hard to squeeze out a faint smile.

“Mr. Larson, according to Old Master Jackson’s instruction, we have beaten Harvey up and made him
lose all his teeth. Once again, I offer my apology to you on behalf of the Jackson Family.”

James and the rest widened their eyes in astonishment as they were surprised by how sincere the
Jacksons offered their apology.

Scott then added, “By the way, we’ve transferred the 300 million compensation to your card and you may
check the balance anytime!”
