The Hidden Dragon In-Law

Chapter 18 – Do you even deserve it?



When the family of four went to Kempinski for dinner, Matthew Zhang was sulking at home.

He had also seen the Dihao Group's announcement and was feeling quite depressed.

He had thought that Mary Xiao would never be able to secure a contract with Dihao Group, but to his surprise, she managed to land a sixty-million-dollar contract in just one morning. Reflecting on the harsh words he had said at her house yesterday, wasn't this a slap in his own face?

Robert Xiao even called to complain, starting off with, "Matthew, you're really something! I've been helping you get close to my cousin, and now you go and help her secure a deal with Dihao Group. Aren't you making me look bad?"

Matthew Zhang felt wronged. What the hell? He hadn't helped Mary Xiao at all!

At this moment, Robert Xiao asked, "Matthew, tell me the truth. Did you sleep with my cousin?"

Matthew Zhang felt awkward denying it, as it would imply he was admitting his incompetence. So he mumbled, "Yeah, sorry about that, Robert. I'll make it up to you next time."

"I knew it!" Robert Xiao sighed and then quickly asked, "Matthew, my cousin is still a virgin, right? She never let that loser touch her. You really hit the jackpot this time!"

Hearing this, Matthew Zhang felt a surge of joy.

Great! Mary Xiao is still a virgin!

Why not spread the word that she slept with him? This could even strain her relationship with her husband.

Thinking of this, he grinned and said to Robert Xiao, "Robert, your cousin is indeed still a virgin. It was really amazing, haha!"

Robert Xiao said bitterly, "Then you better not forget to share the benefits with me in the future, Matthew!"

"Don't worry!" Matthew Zhang readily agreed.

After hanging up with Robert Xiao, Matthew Zhang's father suddenly called.

As soon as the call connected, his father blurted out, "Matthew, something's wrong! The Dihao Group has terminated all our contracts! Have you offended anyone recently?"

Hearing this, Matthew Zhang felt a chill run down his spine.

The Dihao Group terminated all contracts with the Zhang Family? Doesn't that mean a huge loss for the family?

He quickly asked, "What's going on, Dad? I haven't offended anyone recently! Have you?"

His father replied dejectedly, "I haven't either! I've been at the company all this time and haven't gone out to offend anyone..."

Matthew Zhang nervously said, "Dad, could it be that the new chairman of Dihao Group is planning a shake-up?"

"Very likely!" His father suddenly realized, "The new chairman just took over, and I haven't had a chance to meet him. I've mentioned it to Margaret Wang several times, but she always says the chairman doesn't see visitors."

Matthew Zhang asked, "What should we do then?"

His father thought for a moment and said, "Oh right, the Xiao Family has a banquet tomorrow night and they've invited the chairman of Dihao Group. Let's go and try to meet him!"

"Alright!" Matthew Zhang immediately agreed, "We'll go together tomorrow!"

...

The next day, the Xiao Family's most important moment had arrived, and everyone in the family was excited and restless.

Because after a night of fermenting, the news that the Xiao Family had secured a contract with Dihao Group and invited the chairman to their family banquet had spread throughout Jinling!

James Ye, preparing for the banquet, put on his most expensive suit and headed to the hotel where the banquet was being held.

As soon as he arrived at the hotel entrance and got out of the car, he saw a Porsche screech to a halt in front of him.

Matthew Zhang, dressed in a designer suit with meticulously groomed hair, stepped out of the car.

Soon, a reception staff member approached and warmly greeted Matthew Zhang.

Matthew Zhang also noticed James Ye and looked at him with disdain. He glanced up and down at James and sneered, "Where did you get that knockoff suit? Trying to look all fancy."

James Ye calmly asked, "What's it to you?"

Matthew Zhang smirked with a hint of mockery, "It has nothing to do with me, but your wife, she has something to do with me now..."

James Ye frowned slightly and asked, "What do you mean?"

People around them couldn't help but stop and listen.@@novelbin@@

Since last night, a rumor had been circulating in their circle.

The rumor said that the reason Mary Xiao was able to secure a deal with Dihao Group was because she had slept with Matthew Zhang. Otherwise, with her and the Xiao Family's capabilities, how could they have landed a deal with Dihao Group?

Now it seemed there might be some truth to it.

Seeing the crowd gather, Matthew Zhang arrogantly said to James Ye, "What do you think is the reason Mary was able to secure a deal with Dihao Group?"

James Ye looked at Matthew Zhang coldly and asked, "What reason?"

Matthew Zhang smirked and said, "Of course, it's because of me. Mary is my woman now, so I helped her secure the deal with Dihao. If you know what's good for you, you should divorce her and let us be together."

Although the crowd had already suspected it, hearing Matthew Zhang say it outright still shocked them.

So Mary Xiao really did sleep with Matthew Zhang to get the Dihao Group deal!

"Because of you?" James Ye laughed instead of getting angry and said, "Do you even deserve it?"
