Chapter 635

At that moment, confronted with Jeff’s accusations, Matthew suddenly realized he had shot himself in the foot!

From a young age, he had coddled Byron, nurturing him into a loyal lapdog primed to do his bidding. But it never crossed his mind that Avery could turn this to his advantage!

Byron’s death had made him the fall guy.

Jeff, unable to avenge his son’s death, unloaded all his fury onto Matthew, pinning on him this baseless charge!

“Dad, let’s talk this out calmly, getting worked up is bad for your health.”

Avery quickly stepped forward, guiding Jeff to sit on the couch, and calmly explained to Matthew, “Matthew, you’ve got it all wrong. I did look into that plot of land, but I didn’t tell you because I was worried you’d think I was meddling in your project, trying to sabotage you. You already don’t trust me, and I didn’t want to deepen that misunderstanding. Now that it’s just us brothers left, I didn’t want to add to the chill between us.”

Such a noble excuse!

With just a few words, Avery had cast himself as the kindhearted and unfortunate younger brother, thinking of the bigger picture. And made Matthew out to be a petty, self–sabotaging fool!

“Good boy, I appreciate your intentions,” Jeff said, patting his younger son’s shoulder, then turned to Matthew with a glare that could shred him to pieces, “Matthew, I’m giving you one last chance! I’ve managed to control the domestic media storm for you, but you better clean up this international mess! If this affects the Chambers Group’s business as usual, then you’ll resign immediately and step down from your CEO throne!”

As Avery gently patted their father’s back, a sinister smile barely showed at the corner of his lips.

Matthew knew this might be his last chance and clenched his teeth in determination, “I’ve tried to buy off those villagers, and so far no one has died. The situation won’t escalate further, I promise!”

Suddenly, the urgent pounding on the door rang out.

“Come in!”

At Jeff’s command, the secretary rushed in, panic–stricken, “Mr. Jeff! You have to see World Wonders Weekly! There’s been a huge incident!”

The Chambers family’s faces turned ashen as they switched the TV to the news channel.

At that moment, World Wonders Weekly was airing a report on the Chambers Group’s resort project, which involved forcefully demolishing a Country T heritage village and causing serious injuries to its residents!

The news covered the incident extensively, complete with pictures and evidence, catching the Chambers Group completely off guard!

“What the hell is this?” Jeff pointed at the TV screen, exploding with rage!

Matthew’s face drained of color, and even with all his experience, his mind went blank!

Meanwhile, all four of their phones began to ring-
