Peter glanced at Matthew mockingly before he turned to Sasha and said, “President Cunningham, if you’re interested, I can call the shots and give you an order worth 50 million!”
Penny nodded vigorously and said, “Peter has a lot of authority in the Carlson Group. Sasha, Peter is helping you because you’re my friend and he wouldn’t give such a high offer to anyone else. You should hurry up and thank him!”
Peter grinned as he looked at Sasha, his gaze as fiery as before.
However, with a cold expression, Matthew refused them. “Don’t you understand what I just said? Cunningham Pharmaceuticals has been really busy lately so we won’t be accepting any new orders for now.”
Furious, Penny yelled, “Matthew, what are you trying to do? Why are you stopping us from giving Sasha more business orders? I know that you feel comfortable staying at home and leeching off of Sasha, but do you know how exhausted Sasha gets from running around and looking for orders all day? It’s fine if you can’t help her, but you shouldn’t drag her down either! Why is Sasha so unlucky that she married a loser like you?!”
Matthew was immediately infuriated. Seeing this, Sasha hurriedly said, “Penny, don’t say that. In fact, Matthew is right. Our company is really busy dealing with the business we have and don’t have time to accept new orders. Thank you for your kind offer.” Peter frowned while Penny quickly yelled, “Sasha, you’re too kind! I can’t believe that you’re giving up business in order to protect this loser! Do you know how many people are begging to take our order? However, you refused our help just to protect this loser’s ego!”
Looking embarrassed, Sasha mumbled, “I…”
However, Peter interrupted her and coldly said, “Miss Cunningham, since you look down on Carlson Group, I’ve decided that from today on, Carlson Group will not do any business with Cunningham Pharmaceuticals. After all, I don’t think Cunningham Pharmaceuticals need us!”
Sasha couldn’t help but feel startled. She never thought that this would become so serious. Just then, Matthew sneered, “Peter, are you sure you can make decisions on behalf of the Carlson Group?”
With a triumphant look on her face, Penny said, “Of course! My fiancé is the CEO of the company and he could stop all business with Cunningham Pharmaceuticals with a simple command. Matthew, all this happened because of you. Would you be able to bear the consequences?” The people around them started whispering.
“They lost orders worth millions just to save face. This man is really vain!”
“He’s the kind of man that I hate the most. Not only is he not capable, but he also drags people down with him!”
“You’re right. If he is capable, he wouldn’t have let his wife work so hard.”
“A man should at least be responsible. It’s obvious that he’s not manly at all.”
Hearing the whispers made Sasha feel embarrassed.
“Penny, I’m telling you the truth! We have our hands full with work already!”
Sasha deliberately raised her voice so that other people could hear. That way, she could help Matthew save face.
However, Penny didn’t believe her and she looked disappointed. “Forget it, I got the message! Sasha, you’ve always been like this ever since you were a kid! However, is this loser really worth it? How can you be so silly?”
