Chapter 455 Matthew sat opposite Nicolas. There was only a solid wood conference table about 6.5 feet between them.
"When my sister entered the Graham Group, she secretly established a scandal investigation agency." Matthew did not hide from Nicolas, telling him the truth while knowing that Nicolas would feel even worse.
He added, "This agency specializes in investigating the scandals and secrets of Graham Group's board members. It continues to this day." Madalyn's Doyle Law Firm appeared very mediocre, being neither famous nor made much money. However, it was the scandal investigation agency that Matthew and his sister secretly created.
All the law firm staff had been secretly following, investigating, and taking photos of the directors of the Graham Group.
These directors were all smart, rich, powerful, and had many confidants. They hid their dirty deeds very well and it was very difficult for others to find out.
However, no matter how cautious they were, their activities were eventually exposed to those who followed and investigated them for years. As years passed, their scandals were all photographed by Matthew and Lucy's people. Matthew and Lucy were not in a hurry at all. They kept these trump cards and only revealed them at the most critical moment to defeat these directors in one go.
Nicolas's eyes were filled with rage, and his voice was hoarse. "Y-you actually dared to threaten the entire board of directors? Are you sure you can withstand the fury and resentment of so many directors?" "Why can't I?" Matthew asked, "I have something on them, not the other way around. What should I be afraid of? "Besides, they're old. Instead of enjoying the rest of their time, they're going against a young man like me. Are they stupid?" At this point, Matthew revealed a mocking smile. "You too. You're old and sick. It's better for you to retire from the company early and stay at home." Nicolas looked at Matthew, who was young, healthy, and incredibly handsome. Matthew had everything he wanted. He could not help but feel jealous. He spat out, "Don't be too smug.

Since you have the guts to go against the Graham Group for a woman, let's see what will happen next." Matthew said coldly, "I'm not a coward like you. Of course, I have guts." Nicolas was at a loss for words. A metallic taste surged up his throat, and he almost vomited blood. Then, his vision turned black, and he nearly fainted.
However, Matthew had already stood up and strode out, leaving Nicolas behind.
***** At this moment, on the first floor of the Graham Group headquarters, Neil was already in his car.
After the car drove off, Neil's assistant said in a low voice, "Are we just going to let Mr. Matthew Graham go ahead and marry Miss Donovan?" With the Graham family's tradition and Neil's thinking and temper, Neil couldn't accept his heir marrying a woman who was not from the right family. It was even more so for an heir who would not hesitate to go against the family for a woman.
In the eyes of a family like the Graham family, the successor should put the family's interests first. Those who could not do this could not becthe successor.
Neil closed his eyes and said indifferently, "Investigate the Donovan family. Destroy their company first." This would be a lesson for the Donovan family and also a lesson for Matthew.
After the assistant agreed, a piece of news appeared on the television screen in the car. "At 11:30 pm today, the former CEO of Graham Group, Lucy Graham, held a press conference at Kitmore City and officially announced the establishment of Miracle Automobile Group. "The company, which has over 4 billion dollars in investment, already has a manufacturing factory of more than 5,000 acres. It is currently producing SUVs, new energy electric cars, driverless cars, and so on. The first batch of products is soon to be sold." "What?" the assistant exclaimed, "When did Miss Graham establish a car company? Also, isn't Miracle a brand under the Graham Group? When did it becindependent?" At this point, he suddenly shut his mouth. There was no doubt that this company was secretly established in Kitmore City by Lucy and Matthew.
He thought, 'No wonder Lucy has been very low-key since she appeared more than three years ago. She almost never appears in public and barely interacts with family.
'Her reclusion leads the family to believe she isn't doing business anymore. Unexpectedly, she has not been idle in the past few years and has established an automobile company overseas.' In other words, the entire Graham family, including Neil, was deceived. Lucy and Matthew even chose the twhen the Graham Group impeached Matthew to publicize this news. They were clearly provoking the Graham Group.
Neil slowly opened his eyes. There was no obvious expression on his face, but he exuded a cold and strong sense of oppression. "Investigate how the brand Miracle becomes independent." Not only was Miracle the most profitable, famous, and unique product of Graham Group's subsidiaries, but it was also an industrial and heavy industry, which meant a lot to Graham Group.
The assistant immediately went to investigate A moment later, he said in a low voice, "Eight years ago, when Mr. Matthew Graham decided to enter the automotive industry and create the brand 'Miracle', the entire corporation opposed it.
"To convince the board of directors, Mr. Matthew Graham threw out conditions very disadvantageous to himself. He said he would be solely responsible for this company and this brand.
"If Miracle made money, most of the profits would belong to the Graham Group. If he made a loss three years later, he would leave the corporation with nothing. The corporation agreed.
"Therefore, Mr. Matthew Graham has always been the legal representative of Miracle. Everything related to Miracle is up to him. The Graham Group is only an investor and major shareholder of Miracle." He sighed. "Because the corporation didn't value Miracle back then, Mr. Matthew Graham took advantage of a loophole in the agreement.
"The agreement states that the trademark 'Miracle' belongs to Mr. Matthew Graham and the core technology of Miracle is transferred non-permanently by a third-party company.
"In other words, the core technology of Miracle does not belong to Graham Group." There was no doubt that the third-party company with the core technology of Miracle was also under Matthew's control.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe assistant smiled bitterly, "Mr. Matthew Graham transferred the trademark 'Miracle' to Miss Graham. The company with the patent also transferred core technology to the independent Miracle company. It's not against the rules." Without the brand "Miracle" and core technology, the original "Miracle" automobile manufacturer under the Graham Group lost its competitiveness and becmediocre. Matthew had tricked the Graham Group.
After the assistant finished, the car fell silent. The assistant thought Neil, whose authority had been challenged, had to be furious.
After waiting for a while, the assistant could not help but comfort Neil in a low voice, "Mr. Neil Graham, there's no need to be furious. Although Miracle is very promising, the Graham Group is huge.
wouldn't hurt the corporation badly Without Miracle." Unexpectedly, Neil laughed out loud. His laughter was filled with joy.
The assistant was stunned. He wondered if Neil's laughter was a reaction to his fury. It would spell trouble then.
Unexpectedly, after laughing for a while, Neil suddenly changed the topic. "My grandson is sosonissooutstanding that even I was fooled by him. How can I let that girl from the Donovan family have him so easily?" The assistant was stunned for a moment before agreeing silently. Someone like Neil valued their family's interests and continued prosperity above all else. He didn't care that he was tricked by Matthew. What was more important was that Matthew was so capable that he could bear the burden of maintaining the family's prosperity.
Therefore, Neil was not angry, but very happy.
However, if Neil refused to let Matthew go and did not supportm Matthew marrying Athena, Athena and her family would have to bear all of the Graham family's anger.
Neil ordered, "Put pressure on the Donovan family. Either Either Athena give up on my grandson or they'll have to go against the Graham family."
