The girl who was scolded looked upset. “How do you know that he’s Daniel Edwards? Have you met him before? How do you know that he’s not a hired actor?” The girl who was scolded looked upset. “How do you know that he’s Daniel Edwards? Have you met him before? How do you know that he’s not a hired actor?”
Furious, the man yelled, “Of course I’ve met him before! I was fortunate enough to have met him once when I used to work in the pharmaceutical field. Besides, he just went upstairs to eat. You need to have at least a Platinum Card to eat upstairs. How dare you say that he’s a hired actor? The people around him are famous figures in Eastcliff’s pharmaceutical industry. Even if Daniel is a just hired actor, do you think that the people around him are actors too?”
Everyone nodded in agreement. Even though most of them didn’t know Daniel, they had seen the big shots of Eastcliff before. Even those big shots had to treat Daniel respectfully so there was no doubt that his identity was real. Hearing everyone’s discussions, Penny looked extremely upset. She thought Sasha was lying a moment ago but Daniel’s unexpected visit had proved her wrong.
“Sasha, I didn’t know that your company had received so many orders. No wonder you said that you don’t need the Carlson Group’s business,” Penny said embarrassingly.
With a smile, Sasha replied, “No matter what, I still want to thank you for the kind offer!” Penny looked relieved after hearing this. Then, she gave Matthew a sideways glance and said, “Matthew, I was just wondering why you have such bad temper. Now I know that it’s because you have support! However, let me say this again. You are just a live-in son-in-law. No matter how much money the Cunningham family earns, it has nothing to do with you! You can leech off Sasha all you like but you should at least be self-aware, understand?”
Matthew couldn’t help but purse his lips. If he wasn’t worried that Sasha might have a hard time being the middleman, he would’ve splashed a cup of water on Penny’s face long ago.
Does she really think that she’s better now that she has a foreign boyfriend? Just because I don’t rebuke you doesn’t mean that you can tell me what to do!
After chatting for a while, Penny suddenly jumped on the opportunity to change the topic.
“Oh, I forgot to mention that Carlson Group arranged a 200 square meters large flat at The Grand Pavilion for Peter. Sasha, didn’t you used to say that it would be great to live in a house in The Grand Pavilion? I’ll take you around the next time we meet. The environment in the area is really stunning. It’s definitely the most beautiful house I’ve ever seen! You’ll surely like it!” Penny looked relieved after hearing this. Then, she gave Matthew a sideways glance and said, “Matthew, I was just wondering why you have such bad temper. Now I know that it’s because you have support! However, let me say this again. You are just a live-in son-in-law. No matter how much money the Cunningham family earns, it has nothing to do with you! You can leech off Sasha all you like but you should at least be self-aware, understand?” Sasha’s smile seemed forced. She had seen The Grand Pavilion’s brochure before and really liked the houses there. She even used to dream of living there. However, even though she was the president of Cunningham Pharmaceuticals and had a net worth of hundreds of millions, most of it was in the company and she didn’t have much money. It was impossible for her to be able to afford a luxurious flat in The Grand Pavilion. Seeing Sasha’s expression, Penny’s vanity was greatly satisfied.
She glanced at Matthew again and sneered, “If you want to visit my house, don’t bring losers that leech off other people. People who live in The Grand Pavilion are all big shots and elites in Eastcliff. Letting a loser in would desecrate such a high-end place, understand?”
Sasha slightly frowned. Hearing Penny humiliate Matthew made her angry.
“Thanks for the invite, but I don’t think we can enter such a high-end place like the Grand Pavilion so we won’t be interrupting your peace!”
