Chapter 990 Leave It to Me
Heidi's daughter left Heidi with a mixture of disappointment and frustration, and at that moment, she could only
express her heavy emotions with tears. Sigh...
Helen looked on helplessly. "Since when did Leia turn into such a character?"
"I have no idea as well. She was not too difficult during high school, but half a year of college changed her a lot.
She keeps buying new clothes and makeup, never tired of dolling and dressing up. When she comes back to visit
me, she has the habit of staying out all night. She seems to be having fun all the tand only comes to me
when she needs money. Nowadays, there is nothing left to be said between us, except for the topic of money.
Sigh. Tell me, why did she end up this way?"
Heidi nodded in agreement and sighed. "I told her countless times not to hang out with those people, but she...
refused to listen. | am at the end of my wits."

After giving it sserious thought, Matthew whispered, "Heidi, just focus on getting better. When | get back, I'll
look into those college friends of hers."
That prompted Heidi to wave her hand frantically. "Matthew, you should not do that! We don't even know what
their backgrounds are. By the looks of it, they are a gang of hooligans. Look... This injury onwas from the
tthey knockedover."
To that, Matthew merely smiled. "No worries! Hooligans? They're the easiest to deal with!"
Helen quickly chimed in with furious nodding, "Yeah, Heidi. You don't have to worry. Indeed, Matthew is
trustworthy!"
After a couple of incidents of late, even Helen underwent a change in attitude toward Matthew. Moreover, she
was reassured after knowing that Tiger would always lend him a helping hand. Hooligans? They are nothing but
flies in front of Tiger!
When Matthew left the room, Crystal, who had been waiting by the door, jumped out with a face full of disdain.
"Matthew, how could you possibly stand that girl? If | were you, | would have given her a slap on the face!"
He shrugged, but honestly speaking, there was a moment he had wanted to slap Leia across the face.
Well, luckily I held back! If Heidi did not have the heart to slap her daughter, | couldn't possibly do so, could 1?
Everyone would be mad atby then!
"Send someone over to keep an eye on the situation. If anything happens, just contact me," he ordered. Crystal
nodded at him. "No problem! Just leave it to me!"
On Matthew's way back to his office, he called Tiger, asking the latter to look into Leia and her friends. In order
to deal with her, he decided that he had to get rid of the bad influence around her first.
On top of that, the fact that the gang had inflicted a serious injury on Heidi made him vow to take this issue with
all seriousness. | can't just sit back and watch!
After getting the call, Tiger immediately had someone to work on Leia and her friends.

At the stime, he informed Matthew of a piece of bad news: someone was intentionally raising the prices of
renovation materials for the Lakeside Garden neighborhood.
As of now, the price of the raw materials was three times more expensive than its original price, and srare
materials even saw their prices inflated as much as five times. What was more horrible was the supply crunch.
Hence, even if they could afford to pay more, they might not even get the supply on time.
Under the current circumstances, they would have to absorb a greater loss in order to renovate the entire
neighborhood.
The increased cost was not the core issue. In reality, the more critical issue was the shortage of material,
because that would lead to a delay in the project. If that happened, they would risk missing the completion
deadline.
Hearing that, Matthew instantly frowned. "Why would the price of construction materials suddenly shoot up? And
why is there a supply problem?"
Tiger replied somberly, "Mr. Larson, | suspect that someone is secretly sabotaging us. They must have purposely
stocked away the materials that are hard to cby so that we end up with nothing. Then, we would miss the
completion deadline. Our buyers are the elites of Eastcliff! Even the Ten Greatest Families are our clients. If we
miss the deadline, we will get ourselves into greater trouble!"
