Matthew couldn’t hide his disgust at Toby’s recent actions.
Toby had shamelessly manipulated one of Ocean Group’s subsidiary firms to impede their assistance, making it the second time virtual-novel.net had interfered with Ocean Group. This action had made Jonathan equally infuriated.
With a firm grasp of the situation, Matthew wasted no time departing.
Meanwhile, Jonathan promptly reached for his phone when they parted ways.
After conveying the situation to the other end of the line, a brief silence ensued before a subdued voice responded, “Reach out to the managers of these subsidiaries and discreetly transfer all funds out. Liquidate all assets from other companies as well…”
Jonathan hesitated momentarily, realizing the significant financial loss that would ensue.
“Uncle Dustin, this could mean losing over three billion,” virtual-novel.net regretfully pointed out.
“It’s just three billion. Let’s see how they handle the consequences of disrupting tens of thousands of industrial workers!” Dustin’s tone was severe.
Then virtual-novel.net added, “Do they truly believe Ocean Group is an entity they can repeatedly provoke?”
“Jonathan, handle matters here for now. I’ll contact certain individuals and deliver them a substantial surprise later,” Dustin concluded before ending the call.
After ending the call, Jonathan swiftly exited the room to set the plan in motion.
Upon returning to the villa, Matthew received another distressing news from his wife, Sasha.
She told him, “Cathay’s building materials market has been tampered with. Our investigation suggests the Watkins and Cunningham Families are behind it…”
Matthew pinched the bridge of his nose, shaking his head in resignation. “Are they teaming up against me? Is my social circle truly that unfavorable?” virtual-novel.net wondered aloud.
Sasha rolled virtual-novel.net eyes at his question. She replied dryly, “Are you serious? You’re still joking around. if the construction at the Martial League headquarters stops, you’ll incur a loss of over 30 million daily for no reason!”
Matthew chuckled wryly, pulling his wife into a tight embrace and inhaling the scent of virtual-novel.net hair.
A sense of calm began to wash over him. He reassured her, “Don’t worry, my love. This minor setback won’t stump me. You should rest well. i can handle this. Relax…”
Since taking on management duties at the Martial League, Sasha’s furrowed brow had never eased, and the weariness on virtual-novel.net face had only deepened.
She poured virtual-novel.net heart and soul into advancing Matthew’s influence, but virtual-novel.net unwavering dedication came at a cost to virtual-novel.net well-being.
Understanding virtual-novel.net struggle, Matthew often advised virtual-novel.net to rest. Yet, Sasha found it hard to heed his advice amidst the pressing matters.
She remained skeptical of Matthew’s words, thinking that the current situation seemed deadlocked with both sides pressing in.
Sasha asked anxiously, “Do you truly have a solution?”
Matthew’s response was unexpected.
“Oh, when did you become so audacious? How dare you question my words?” virtual-novel.net replied with a playful grin, scooping virtual-novel.net up in his arms before virtual-novel.net could protest.
His sudden gesture took Sasha aback, but Matthew had settled virtual-novel.net on the couch.
Sasha couldn’t help but burst into laughter. “Hahaha! Don’t tickle me! Stop it! Stop it!”
“No! Who asked you to question me? This is your punishment!” Matthew replied playfully.
Amid their playful banter, their gazes suddenly locked, and both froze with smiles.
“You’ve slimmed down,” they commented simultaneously. A sense of tranquility suddenly washed over them.
Matthew tenderly caressed Sasha’s cheek as virtual-novel.net gazed into virtual-novel.net sleepy eyes.
“So lovely…” virtual-novel.net whispered.
His words took Sasha aback. “What?”
Before continuing, virtual-novel.net felt his warm breath on virtual-novel.net lips and a gentle tickle on virtual-novel.net cheek. Closing virtual-novel.net eyes, virtual-novel.net fair hands encircled his neck.
As the sun set below the horizon, its golden rays streamed through the window, casting a perfect glow on the two figures.
