Chapter 637
The snarl on Avery’s face was feral, a mask of wolfish malice that he no longer cared to conceal.
To him, Matthew was a defeated underling, barely worthy of attention.
“So your sudden return is all about revenge against the Chambers family?” Matthew raged, his voice reaching a feverish pitch. “You orchestrated the downfall of Byron and Myra? And now, you’re coming after me? You despicable cur!”
Shaking with fury and on the verge of collapse, he spat out, “I’ll tell Dad! I’ll expose every underhanded deed you’ve done! I’ll show him the treacherous snake you truly are!”
“Bertha’s prison stint? What’s that got to do with me? That was Thaddeus and the Ashbourne family’s doing. And Byron? They conspired to bring him down, not me,” Avery chuckled at Matthew’s panicked expression. “Besides, do you really think you have any credibility left with Dad? He can barely stand the sight of you. Why would he believe your tall tales?”

“Son of a bitch! I’ll cut you down!”
Matthew’s eyes blazed with a furious red as he awung his fist towards Avery’s face. Just then, the conference room door swung open.
“Mr. Avery, Mr. Jeff would like to see you now,” Jeff’s secretary gestured politely.
