Chapter 634

Matthew had raised a ruckus with his plan to bulldoze a village for his resort development, and the mess was no small potatoes.

Distracted and overwhelmed, he had no time to address the media storm. It was Jeff who had managed to keep the lid on the situation.

In the chairman’s office today, things were about to boil over.

In front of his two remaining sons, Jeff was so livid he might as well have been tearing down the office walls himself.

“Have you lost your damn mind? Even here we don’t go around bulldozing places willy–nilly, and you think it’s fine to do it abroad? Like there’s no law, no government oversight there?”

Jeff, grinding his teeth, jabbed a finger at Matthew’s forehead so fiercely that he was forced to step back repeatedly, “You numbskull! Thick as two short planks! Are you trying to run the Chambers Group into the ground?”

Avery stood aside, gently adjusting his wire–rimmed glasses, his lips curled in a quiet smirk.

Matthew’s face turned beet red with shame and fury, his dignity shredded by Jeff’s tirade.

But he was defiant, spitting out angrily, “Dad! We got played by Cassius! The land he transferred to me, there were issues from the start! It was a setup!”

At this, Jeff’s bushy eyebrows knitted together.

“Matthew, it’s not your first rodeo in the business world. Didn’t you send someone to scout out the land before signing the contract?” Avery shook his head in exasperation. “You just blindly took Cassius at his word? Is he really that authoritative in your eyes?”

Matthew glared at him, his jaws aching from clenching his teeth.

He had been so eager to win his father’s praise, so desperate to outshine Avery, that he had rushed into this folly, walking straight into Cassius‘ trap.
