Chapter 146
Man With Super Medical Skill (Matthew)
It took a while for Peter and Penny to completely calm down after Tiger left. However, they were both extremely embarrassed.
Peterâs fake identity as a rich and young gentleman was exposed and he became a joke. Even though Sasha didnât say anything, everyone else around them were constantly stealing glances and whispering. It was obvious they were mocking Peter.
As for Penny, she was sitting on pins and needles and she wanted very badly to leave. Just when she was thinking of an excuse, another group of people entered the restaurant. The person leading the group was a young man wearing Versace, and he looked arrogant.
A gleam appeared in Pennyâs eyes and she immediately got up and yelled, âYoung Master Jackson!
Young Master Jackson!â
The young man instantly glanced in Pennyâs direction and smirked disdainfully. Then, he ignored Penny and walked to the stairs.
Anxious, Penny hurriedly grabbed Sasha. âSasha, come here. Let me introduce you to Young Master Jackson!â
It was only then did Zachary Jackson noticed Sasha and a sinister gleam appeared in his eyes. With that, he quickly stepped back and walked straight to their table.
âOh, itâs you!â Zachary greeted Penny with a smile but his eyes were focused on Sasha.
âYoung Master Jackson, long time no see!â Penny smiled ingratiatingly and asked, âHow have you been lately?â
However, Zachary completely ignored her and just kept looking at Sasha. âWho is this young lady?â
âOh, this is my best friend, Sasha Cunningham!â Penny introduced with a grin. âSheâs Sasha Cunningham from the Cunningham Group. Young Master Jackson, I believe youâve heard of her before.â
Zachary pondered for a moment before he yelled, âSasha Cunningham? Didnât she used to be the most beautiful woman in Eastcliff? I heard that she married a loser that leeches off her and lives at her family home.â
Penny instantly burst into laughter and replied, âThatâs right! Young Master Jackson, it seems that you know a lot about Sasha! Sasha, Young Master Jackson is the heir of the Jackson family, one of the greatest families in Eastcliff.â
Everyone around them gasped in surprise. After all, being the heir of the Jackson family meant that he had a lot of power and wealth.
Zachary laughed and said, âEvery gentleman desires to meet a fair lady, so of course I would know a lot about a beauty like Miss Cunningham. Miss Cunningham, nice to meet you. Iâm Zachary Jackson and itâs an honor!â
As Jackson spoke, he stretched his hand to shake hands with Sasha.
Seeing this, Sasha hurriedly hid behind Matthew and said, âNice to meet you, Young Master Jackson.â
It was only then Zachary noticed Matthew and he sneered, âMiss Cunningham, I reserved a VIP room upstairs. Why donât we go upstairs and have a chat? It just so happens that my family is planning to do business in the pharmaceutical industry and maybe we can have a business cooperation with Cunningham Pharmaceuticals!â
Matthew directly interrupted him and said, âThereâs no need. Cunningham Pharmaceuticals has been busy with business lately and we canât accept any new orders.â
Zachary glanced at Penny and Penny instantly yelled, âMatthew, shut your mouth! Do you know who Young Master Jackson is? Donât think that you can speak to him like that just because you know Master Tiger!â
After hearing this, Zachary snorted. âSo youâre one of Master Tigerâs subordinates! Even Master Tiger has to treat me respectfully, let alone you. How dare you speak to me like that? I was in the middle of a conversation with Miss Cunningham. What does that have to do with you? Someone get him out of here!â
Zacharyâs men immediately rushed over and surrounded Matthew aggressively.
Sasha was starting to panic. âWh-What are you trying to do?â
âDonât worry!â Matthew waved his hand and with a faint smile, he said, âThis is Shanghai Nights. Donât you think you have to ask the owner of Shanghai Nights for permission to fight here?â
Zachary sneered, âSo what if weâre at Shanghai Nights? Iâm a Platinum Card member here! If I want you out of here, the staff here will personally kick you out!â
