Chapter 260 Much intimidated by Matthew's threat, Demi trembled and she was deterred from making any further comment once she thought of Matthew's friendship with Tiger. In the end, Liam decided to yield to Matthew.

She hauled Liam up to his feet and snapped furiously, "Well, now that my husband has already kneeled down and apologized, are you happy now?" Sasha, who finally had her grievance avenged, commented icily, "He brought that upon himself! He only has himself to blfor gloating over people's misfortune!" Liam did not say anything to refute her with his teeth gritted whereas Demi said crossly, "Just cut the crap! Is your husband any better? Yes, my husband did that but at least he's better than someone who only knows how to brag! Your husband has been telling everyone that he will get a 300 million compensation for our family. What happened to it now? Did the Jacksons pay him a dime?" James and Helen glanced over at Matthew. The thought of Matthew claiming that he would ask the Jacksons for compensation was hilarious to them.
The Jacksons were one of the Ten Greatest Families of Eastcliff. How could they be willing to compensate them? Matthew muttered, "They did!" "Huh?" Helen was stunned first before asking out of instinct, "How much did they pay you?" "300 million!" Matthew announced.
Helen and the rest first exchanged looks among each other before they soon roared with laughter.

Sincerely, Matthew emphasized, "It's true. The Jacksons really promised to pay300 million compensating for the loss of reputation our company and our family suffered as well as our damages of distress! Dad, Mom, this sum of money belongs to our family and I am thinking of giving the money to the two of you..." Helen cut him off by saying, "No way, please don't give it to us! You can keep the money to yourself and please don't give us a dbecause we aren't worthy of that money! Ha ha ha, do you guys want the money?" Liam and Demi, who were laughing heartily, shook their heads and said, "Matthew, just keep the money to yourself. We don't want a dfrom you!" James shook his head and sighed regretfully. "Matthew, do you know why you're so detestable? It's because you're too cocky, too presumptuous and you brag too much! Even if the Jacksons did accuse you wrongly, you should consider yourself lucky to have an apology from them. Why would they pay you 300 million? Is the money in joss paper?" Once again, the other three let out a round of guffaw because they did not believe the Jacksons would compensate them with a sum of 300 million at all.
Looking indignant, Sasha held one of Matthew's arms and confronted them through gritted teeth, "What are you guys laughing at? Why wouldn't they pay us the money? I'm sure what Matthew said was true and I believe him!" Demi laughed out loud and remarked, "Sasha, you're so pathetic. Do you really believe something so illogical? Do you really think the Jacksons would pay him 300 million? Tellwhy did they need to do that?"
