Son-in-Law Is a Medical Genius -
Chapter 766
Chapter 766
During this period while she was living with the Cunninghams, Minerva had discerned their animositytoward Matthew.
Thus, she didn’t think much of him either.
Based on what Demi told her, he had happened upon his wealth by luck.
It was only because he saved the life of Billy Newman’s daughter using a drug produced by CunninghamPharmaceuticals that he had everything he did now.
Thus, it was only by stealing their credit that he got to where he was.
If he genuinely relied on his own ability, he might have starved to death by now.
Because of those opinions that Demi instilled in her, Minerva came to despise Matthew even more.
After listening to her retelling of the tale, the boys perked up.
“Live-in son-in-law? Oh—does your cousin like boy toys?”
“As if! Look at him! Does he look like he could be a boy toy?”
“Well, if he’s a live-in son-in-law, he can’t have a good relationship with your cousin. She must be solonely. Ha!”
One by one, they sniggered.
Glaring at them, Minerva snapped, “Watch your mouth! She’s the president of CunninghamPharmaceuticals! Do you think she’d be interested in a bunch of hooligans like you? Dream on!”
Sullenly, the boys protested, “What’s wrong with us? If we don’t talk to her, how will we know whethershe’s a good fit for any one of us? You need only introduce us, Minerva. We’ll see who wins in the end!”
However, she waved them away impatiently. “Fine; but you had better fulfill your promise to introduce meto someone hot. Remember—foreigners only. I have no interest in Cathian men!”
“No problem!” They quickly reassured her with wide smiles.
During the time she was abroad, Minerva had felt that Cathian men were useless. Thus, from the verybeginning, she sought to date only foreign men.
As for Cathian men, she would not give them a second glance no matter how exceptional they appearedat first glance.
Presently, upon entering the house, Tate located Helen and grumbled angrily, “Aunt Helen, you have totalk some sense into Sasha!”
With a doting expression on her face, Helen asked, “What’s wrong, Tate? What did she do to anger youthis time?”
He then announced loudly, “This is my girlfriend’s first time over and she forgot to bring a swimsuit. Iasked Sasha to have her secretary buy one for me, but she refused. This is so embarrassing for me!What now? Is she afraid that I won’t be able to pay her back?”
Upon hearing that, Helen quickly reassured him, “Of course not, Tate! What does money matter whenwe’re family? Where is she? Sasha? Sasha!”
Walking out of her room, Sasha asked, “Yes, Mom?”
“Call your secretary and have her bring a swimsuit,” Helen ordered with a frown. “This is Tate’sgirlfriend’s first time here, so how could you treat a guest like that?”
Feeling rather annoyed, Sasha replied, “The secretary is off work, Mom! She’s tired after working for theentire day. It’s not appropriate for me to call her now!”
“What do you mean it’s not appropriate?” Helen shot back angrily. “What’s one extra trip when you payher so much? Don’t forget your aunt covered all of your expenses when you were young. We were sopoor back then that you would have starved to death if she hadn’t given me half of her salary eachmonth!”
It frustrated Sasha to no end that the past was dredged up every time she and her mother spoke now.
It wasn’t that she wasn’t grateful to Chloe and her family, but she had to draw a line somewhere.
Right now, the house was practically Tate and Minerva’s base camp.
It was too much to expect her to put up with Joanna’s presence and also buy a swimsuit for her as well!
Upon seeing that Sasha was still standing her ground even after a round of nagging, Helen finallysnapped, “Fine! If you won’t do it, I won’t force you. I’ll go out and get the swimsuit myself. How aboutthat?”
