Son-in-Law Is a Medical Genius novel Chapter 419

After giving Demi and Liam a piece of his mind, James returned to his room, thereupon Helen eyed him with displease. “James, what’re you doing? What’s wrong with Demi asking for that master bedroom upstairs? Was it really necessary for you to scold her so?”

James glared at her and scowled, “Women really are a bunch of short-sighted creatures! Didn’t you hear what Matthew just said? He threatened to return this mansion to Jefford and the other shareholders! Do you really want him to go that far?”

Helen snapped furiously, “What gives him the right to return this place to them? Since we own this mansion, he has no right to deal with it! I can’t see why you’re so scared of him.”

James shot her a baleful glare. “Is there something wrong with you? Can’t you see why we have to handle this with care? Right now, Jefford and the rest gave this place to Matthew, not to us! If we allow things to escalate, Matthew is only one phone call away from telling Jefford to take this place back. Can’t you see it? It’s just a room and it makes no difference who gets to have it because both Demi and Sasha are our daughters. Do we want to lose the entire mansion just because of such a trivial matter? Why can’t you understand something as simple as this?”

Helen was flustered and muttered, “W-What you say does make some sense.”

James added, “If Matthew really wants to get back at us, we won’t get anything, including the two cars parked outside and the company from Stanley Carlson. Seriously, you should think things through more often.”

Helen nodded in agreement. “You’re right. Sigh, Demi insists on having nice things because she’s spoilt by us. Fine, I’ll convince her to stay in the room downstairs for the time being. By the time we get the company and earn enough money, I’ll just use the money to get them another mansion in this area!”

James nodded and responded, “That’s more like it! At this hour, our priority is to keep Matthew happy before we have the company. It would be pointless to lose the company just because of a room!”

Meanwhile, Sasha was snuggled in Matthew’s arms blissfully in the master bedroom upstairs. “Matthew, you should have started treating them in that way sooner and not constantly compromising back then! People like them won’t ever be satisfied with what they own. The more you put up with them, the more they will ask from you. You have to make sure they know you are no pushover! I must say you handled them very well earlier!” Sasha chuckled.

Matthew laughed lightly. “Sasha, I know how to handle things. There are things I can tolerate but there are also things I can’t. I can be more forgiving to James and Helen because they are your parents but I don’t see the need to treat Demi and Liam the same way! What’s more, no one is allowed to bully the person I love the most. That’s where I draw the line!”

Sasha flushed because she knew Matthew was alluding to her. “Speaking of, what do you plan to do with the company? Are you really going to let Liam manage it?” she asked.

Matthew laughed lightly and replied, “That is just a temporary arrangement. Don’t worry, I’m sure we don’t have to wait for long before Liam asks to leave the company.”

Sasha glanced at him and her heart skipped a beat as she saw how confident he looked. At that moment, she was even more convinced that Matthew was an immensely talented guy. Leaning her head on his chest, she murmured, “Matthew, you have my absolute trust no matter what you’re going to do. I only have one request—please don’t put yourself through any hardship just because you want me to be happy!”
