Facing this group of men, Matthew didn't have the slightest fear. Instead, he fought back quickly and soon defeated the whole group. The man who led the group was trampled on by Matthew. Stepping on his neck, Matthew coldly said, "Go back and tell your boss to not provoke me ever again! Otherwise, you might not be able to return on two feet the next time!"

The man was so frightened, he was shivering in fear.

He thought that it would be a piece of cake for it was a dozen of them against Matthew alone. He didn't expect Matthew to be so skilled at fighting!

Matthew instantly turned around and coldly said, "Take me to see your boss1"

With that, he followed the group of men and got into their car. Soon, the car drove to an abandoned factory in the suburbs. After they entered the factory, they saw a few men standing at the side.

The man standing in front of the group was Niko Rees. He glanced at Matthew and disdainfully said, "Are you the live-in son-in-law of the Cunningham family?"

Matthew frowned and asked, "Who are you? Do we know each other?"

Niko smiled triumphantly and said, "No, we don't, and I'm not interested in being friends with a loser like you either! Come, I have something for you to sign. You can leave once you finish signing the documents."

"What documents?"

Niko didn't reply to him. Instead, he grinned and waved his hand. Soon, a man standing at the side came over with a pile of paperwork and handed them to Matthew.

After taking a glance, Matthew frowned.

These are transfer forms of Cunningham Pharmaceuticals. All of these are supposed to be signed by the president but why are they giving it to me?

After a closer look, he noticed that it was a request to transfer 300 million.

Matthew gave it some thought and soon understood what was going on.

Someone is trying to use me to forge a transfer form. If I sign, once the police start investigating, this will be used as evidence that I forged a transfer form. By then, I won't be able to escape. Without any doubt, this 300 million must be the money the company lost from the fake investment. In short, someone is trying to let me take the blame and bear the consequences of the lost money. It's not hard to figure out who planned this!

Matthew glanced at Niko and coldly asked, "Are you a friend of Liam's?"

Niko was momentarily startled but he soon put on a grin and said, "Wow, I couldn't tell that you were smart. Since you know what's going on, sign the papers. After you finish signing them, you can leave!" Matthew sneered, "Do you think that I'll sign?"

Niko burst into laughter and said, "I think that you'll definitely sign them! If you sign these papers, Liam will give you one million. 300,000 to save your sister and 700,000 so that your sister can live a peaceful life. If you don't sign them..."

Niko paused and chuckled before he continued. "Matthew, take a look around. Do you know how many people who disobeyed me that I've killed in this place? Are you looking forward to dying here too?" Matthew smirked in disdain. "Do you think that you'll be able to kill me?"

Hearing this, Niko couldn't help but feel infuriated and he roared, “F*ck! I asked you nicely but it seems that it's not working! Men, beat him up until he's willing to sign the papers!”

Six muscular men with baseball bats stepped forward and glared at Matthew. Just then, the man who fought with Matthew a moment ago hurriedly walked up to Niko and said, "Niko, don't... Stop fighting. You can't defeat this man..."

Niko immediately glared at him and yelled, "B*llshit! He came here alone and there are so many of us! Kill-"

Before he finished his sentence, Matthew already started attacking.

With a leap, he ran toward the man in front of him, quickly clasped his wrist and snatched his baseball bat. Then, he hit him with his elbow and the man directly fell to the ground. Seeing this, the other men behind them ran toward Matthew with their baseball bats raised. Without wasting any time, Matthew swung the baseball bat in his hand and fought back.

He gave each man one hit and they either had broken legs, broken hands, or blood flowing down their foreheads. In just a short time, all of them were knocked to the ground. Niko was completely dumbfounded. He never thought that the Cunningham family's loser son-in-law would be so skilled at fighting. Before he came back to his senses, Matthew was already standing in front of him with his basebal bat raised.

As for the men who brought Matthew to the abandoned factory, they all shivered in fear as they stood at the side, not daring to make a sound. It was only then did Niko finally understand what his subordinate meant.

There is no defeating this man!

In a deep voice, Matthew asked, "Where is Liam?"

Niko swallowed and looked toward a corner not far away from them.

Matthew frowned and glanced in that direction. "Come out!"

After a moment of silence, Liam walked out of the corner and Demi was right behind him.

Matthew dragged the baseball bat as he walked toward Liam. Seeing this, Liam trembled in fear and staggered back a few steps. Then, Matthew directly ran up to him, raised his hand, and hit him. Terrified, Liam screamed and put his hands over his head as he kneeled to the ground. In a trembling voice, he said, "Don't hurt me. I-It was James and Helen's idea..."

Hearing this, Matthew stopped and with a cold expression, he asked, "This is James and Helen's idea?"

They want me to take the blame? Do they have a conscience?

Liam let out a sigh of relief and muttered, "Matthew, I know that it is the wrong thing to do but I have no choice. Now that the shareholders know about the matter, we need someone to take responsibility. I'm not part of the Cunningham family so I can't take on the responsibility, which is why either James and Helen or Demi and Sasha will have to go to jail. Can you bear watching them be jailed? Considering you're young, James and Helen..."

With a cold expression, Matthew took a deep breath and gritted his teeth as he spoke, "Go home and tell them that nobody is going to jail! I will solve this matter!"

With that, he left. Liam and Demi were still shivering in fear as they were really frightened by Matthew.

After a while, Sasha whispered, "Wh-What should we do now?"

Liam gritted his teeth and there was a sinister gleam in his eyes. "It doesn't matter whether he signs the forms or not! When the police start asking questions, tell them that it was Matthew who did it. That way, he will never be able to escape!"

Demi nodded obediently. Then, she softly asked, "But he said that he'll get the money back..."

Liam sneered, "Don't tell me you believe him? Do you really think he can get the money back?"

Demi was speechless. After all, the money was already transferred to accounts around the world. How would Matthew be able to get them back?
