Chapter 735

All the while, Sasha listened on with an awkward look on her face. Why is she being so hostile towardme?

She had no idea that Minerva was a petty narcissist. When she saw Demi, she was so full of herself, forshe assumed that the Cunninghams were all plain-looking. When she realized that Sasha was far prettierthan her, she was immediately irked. Therefore, she chose to criticize Sasha’s clothing to showcase hersense of superiority as someone who returned from abroad.

However, Chloe didn’t seem to notice anything wrong about Minerva’s criticisms. Instead, she chuckled.“Oh, Sasha. I think your cousin is right. Your clothes don’t match at all, but this isn’t your fault. This ishow things are in Cathay. This place is just not as advanced as compared to other countries. Minervastudied fashion design, so why don’t you let her help match your clothes?”

The Campbells spoke with an air of superiority, as if having lived abroad somehow made them betterthan the Cunninghams. It made James and Helen feel awkward, but neither dared speak up againstthem.

After all, Chloe had provided Helen a lot of assistance. Other than that, they shared a deep bond whilegrowing up together. Therefore, Sasha didn’t say anything either as she led Matthew to take a seat bythe table.

“By the way, where is Jonah? Hasn’t he returned?” Liam asked all of a sudden.

Upon hearing that, Minerva beamed. “Oh, my father has to dine with the company’s regional president ofthe Floria Continent. You should bear in mind that my father will be the managing director of thecompany’s branch in Cathay from now on. If he is able to accomplish the major project that the companyhas undertaken as of late, he will be promoted to becoming the regional president of Cathay. He isdefinitely considered as one of the higher-ups even in the headquarters, so the regional president will ofcourse have to treat him with respect.”

Minerva seemed so self-conceited as she spoke. There was also a look of contempt in her eyes whenshe glanced at Sasha and her family, which Matthew couldn’t help but perceive as her blatantly showingoff her status and wealth.

On the other hand, Helen wore a smile on her face. “Oh, your father did a great job throughout the years.Chloe, I’m glad that you finally made it to the top.”

Upon hearing that, Minerva cut her short. “Aunt Helen, that’s not the right way to phrase it. We neverneeded to strive to stay afloat. Unlike you, we have always been at the top when we lived abroad.Besides, my father has always been working as a manager in the company, so his monthly salary couldamount to your income for over decades. Therefore, we never experienced any struggles. On thecontrary, you must have had a hard time while in Cathay, right?”

Demi could no longer stand her arrogance. “Haha, how much is your father’s monthly salary? How can itpossibly amount to our income for over decades?”

Pleased with herself, Minerva laughed. “His monthly salary is around twenty thousand, which is around ahundred and fifty thousand in Cathian currency. I remember my mother telling me that she used to havea monthly salary of a little more than four hundred, which would add to an annual salary of a meager fivethousand. Doesn’t that mean you will have to work for thirty years just to earn one hundred and fiftythousand?”

Everybody was rendered speechless by her ignorance, for the data she listed was from a long, long timeago. Thus, Sasha corrected Minerva. “That is from a long time ago. The salary in Cathay has sinceincreased, so the basic monthly wage amounts to a few thousand nowadays.”

Minerva snorted at Sasha’s explanation, and she was about to mock her when Tate reached out to holdher arm. “Alright, let’s not talk about this any longer.” Then, he gave her a look before whispering into herear. “Don’t talk about this in their presence. Dad said that the Cunninghams are parasites. What if theydecide to borrow money from us again?”

Minerva’s expression changed drastically as soon as she heard that; she was suddenly on full alerttoward the Cunninghams. Disgruntled, Demi was about to protest when the door swung open before amiddle-aged man entered the room.
