Chapter 766

During this period while she was living with the Cunninghams, Minerva had discerned their animosity
toward Matthew.

Thus, she didn’t think much of him either.

Based on what Demi told her, he had happened upon his wealth by luck.

It was only because he saved the life of Billy Newman’s daughter using a drug produced by Cunningham
Pharmaceuticals that he had everything he did now.

Thus, it was only by stealing their credit that he got to where he was.

If he genuinely relied on his own ability, he might have starved to death by now.

Because of those opinions that Demi instilled in her, Minerva came to despise Matthew even more.

After listening to her retelling of the tale, the boys perked up.

“Live-in son-in-law? Oh—does your cousin like boy toys?”

“As if! Look at him! Does he look like he could be a boy toy?”



“Well, if he’s a live-in son-in-law, he can’t have a good relationship with your cousin. She must be so
lonely. Ha!”

One by one, they sniggered.

Glaring at them, Minerva snapped, “Watch your mouth! She’s the president of Cunningham
Pharmaceuticals! Do you think she’d be interested in a bunch of hooligans like you? Dream on!”



Sullenly, the boys protested, “What’s wrong with us? If we don’t talk to her, how will we know whether
she’s a good fit for any one of us? You need only introduce us, Minerva. We’ll see who wins in the end!”

However, she waved them away impatiently. “Fine; but you had better fulfill your promise to introduce me
to someone hot. Remember—foreigners only. I have no interest in Cathian men!”

“No problem!” They quickly reassured her with wide smiles.

During the time she was abroad, Minerva had felt that Cathian men were useless. Thus, from the very
beginning, she sought to date only foreign men.

As for Cathian men, she would not give them a second glance no matter how exceptional they appeared
at first glance.

Presently, upon entering the house, Tate located Helen and grumbled angrily, “Aunt Helen, you have to
talk some sense into Sasha!”

With a doting expression on her face, Helen asked, “What’s wrong, Tate? What did she do to anger you
this time?”

He then announced loudly, “This is my girlfriend’s first time over and she forgot to bring a swimsuit. I
asked Sasha to have her secretary buy one for me, but she refused. This is so embarrassing for me!
What now? Is she afraid that I won’t be able to pay her back?”

Upon hearing that, Helen quickly reassured him, “Of course not, Tate! What does money matter when
we’re family? Where is she? Sasha? Sasha!”

Walking out of her room, Sasha asked, “Yes, Mom?”

“Call your secretary and have her bring a swimsuit,” Helen ordered with a frown. “This is Tate’s
girlfriend’s first time here, so how could you treat a guest like that?”



Feeling rather annoyed, Sasha replied, “The secretary is off work, Mom! She’s tired after working for the
entire day. It’s not appropriate for me to call her now!”

“What do you mean it’s not appropriate?” Helen shot back angrily. “What’s one extra trip when you pay
her so much? Don’t forget your aunt covered all of your expenses when you were young. We were so
poor back then that you would have starved to death if she hadn’t given me half of her salary each
month!”

It frustrated Sasha to no end that the past was dredged up every time she and her mother spoke now.

It wasn’t that she wasn’t grateful to Chloe and her family, but she had to draw a line somewhere.

Right now, the house was practically Tate and Minerva’s base camp.

It was too much to expect her to put up with Joanna’s presence and also buy a swimsuit for her as well!

Upon seeing that Sasha was still standing her ground even after a round of nagging, Helen finally
snapped, “Fine! If you won’t do it, I won’t force you. I’ll go out and get the swimsuit myself. How about
that?”
