Sayon, Jones Family residence.

“Mom, disaster’s struck, mom, we’ve been deceived by that bastard White Mitchell, mom….”

The moment Will Jones returned home, he began yelling, desperate to inform Old Madam Jones about the company’s news.

The alarmed Old Madam Jones and Amanda, seeing Will Jones’s bruised face, were both quite taken aback: “Will, who did you fight with? Who battered you up like this?”

Will Jones looked urgently at them: “Mom, my injuries aren’t the main issue here. We’ll talk about it later. The major issue is that we’ve been fooled by that bastard White Mitchell.

Our Jones Group didn’t nearly go bankrupt because of him, instead it was the court’s mistake, the company is functioning as usual.

We are not bankrupt at all, all those suppliers and distributors have apologized to us. We’ve been fooled by White Mitchell. He took us for a ride!”

What!?

Upon hearing this, Old Madam Jones’s face immediately turned livid with lingering fury.

“Speak clearly! What on earth happened!?” Old Madam Jones sternly poked the floor with her cane and questioned Will Jones.

Then, Will Jones recounted the situation that Ryan had informed him about, without skipping a single detail, to Old Madam Jones.

After listening to Will Jones’s explanation, the anger on Old Madam Jones’s face became even denser, like the calm before a storm.

Suddenly, the entire Jones residence was engulfed in a tense atmosphere, it seemed as if something was brewing within Old Madam Jones.

Finally, Old Madam Jones couldn’t restrain her inner fury anymore and erupted with thunderous anger.

“Absolutely outrageous! Absolutely outrageous! That bastard White Mitchell dared to trick me! That damned man!” Old Madam Jones gritted her teeth furiously!

That was half of her company shares, duped away by White Mitchell.

She’d always been shrewd, but unexpectedly, in the end, she’d been fooled by that bastard White Mitchell, losing half of the company shares for nothing.

At this thought, Old Madam Jones felt aggrieved, and her face was filled with an indignant expression.

“Mom, I told you before, how could a bastard like White Mitchell, who just came out of prison, be so capable.

If he truly was so capable, he would have solved the troubles of the Imperial Group a long time ago, instead of coveting our tiny share of stocks in the Jones Group.

He must have known long ago that it was a mistake on the court’s part, so he took advantage of the situation, tricking us out of half our shares, mom, we can’t let this matter slide!” Will Jones voiced his dissatisfaction.

At that moment, Amanda, standing aside chimed in: “Mom, that insufferable Sherry probably knew about it beforehand, she certainly colluded with White Mitchell.

They conned us of half of our shares. Why should a naïve girl like Sherry have half the shares of our Jones Group?

She has truly showed her wolfish ambitions! Mom, we must find a way to take back our shares, we can’t let their conspiracy succeed!”

When Old Madam Jones heard this, she was on the verge of exploding with rage. She couldn’t believe that White Mitchell and Sherry were so audacious as to not take her, the head of the family, seriously!

Will Jones, on the side, seeing how agitated Old Madam Jones was, wore a barely veiled triumphant smile.

This was the outcome he desired, to fan the flames and have Old Madam Jones completely target Sherry, so he could regain control of the Jones Group.

With that thought, Will Jones urgently said: “Mom, Antonio Woods and Blake Thomas, those two bastards, completely turned their backs on us when Hans Weiden went missing. They’re claiming we owe them fifty million now and demand that we repay within two days.

I was actually going to negotiate with them today, but they not only seized the transfer agreement but also beat me up.”

When he say this, Will Jones flashed a look of pained innocence, emphasizing his unworthiness in being beaten while defending the interest of the Jones family.

What!?

Old Madam Jones’s face changed drastically upon hearing this, a chilling sensation rising up in her heart.

What are we to do now?

When one wave subsides, another one arises!

“What has happened to our Jones Family to have such adversity,… what on earth have we done to deserve this?” lamented Old Madam Jones in heartrending pain.

Will Jones grinned upon hearing this, then suggested, “Mother, perhaps this isn’t all bad for us.

Think about it, isn’t Sherry doing quite well now? And isn’t she in cahoots with White Mitchell? Why don’t we just throw Sherry under the bus and let her solve this fifty million problem.

If she can’t, we will seize the opportunity to get back the shares she possesses. Our Jones Family is no charity, not a place to harbor idlers!”

After saying this, Will Jones cast a suggestive look at Amanda.

Amanda immediately understood and echoed his sentiment, “Exactly, mom! Will is right. We can’t allow their arrogance to go unchecked, they need to be put in their place.

They must realize who reigns supreme in this house. The illegitimate child and that ungrateful girl dared to deceive you. I am frustrated on your behalf.

If we don’t teach them a lesson now, they will surely act like they own the place in the future!”

Listening to the couple arguing, Old Madam Jones’s face turned dark as a cloud.

“Will! Amanda! Call Sherry right now, and tell her to come back immediately! If I do not see her within an hour, she will face the consequences!” ordered Old Madam Jones with an angry face.

After her words, Will and Amanda exchanged a knowing look, faces smeared with satisfied and victorious smiles.

On the other side, Sherry, who just met with suppliers and sales agents, before even having a chance to catch her breath, received a call from Will Jones.

“Grandmother wants me to come back now?”

Sherry was stunned, unable to understand the meaning of Old Madam Jones’s abrupt request. She had just left the Jones Family a few hours ago. Why did Old Madam Jones want to see her again so soon?

Moreover, judging from Will’s tone, it did not sound kind, as if something had happened.

Feeling unsettled by these thought, Sherry decided to drop her work and hurry towards the Jones Family residence, out of respect for Old Madam Jones’s command.

About half an hour later, Sherry was back at the Jones Family residence.

However, the moment she walked through the door, she could feel the heavy and oppressive atmosphere in the house.

At this moment, Old Madam Jones, and the couple, Will and Amanda, looked at her with hostility and anger, as if she had done something wrong.

Remembering this, Sherry’s sense of unease intensified, and she cautiously asked, “Grandmother, what’s the matter…?”

“Kneel down!”

Old Madam Jones didn’t give Sherry the chance to ask anything, and ordered her to kneel down with a commanding tone.

This…

Sherry was a bit surprised. Old Madam Jones’s attitude towards her had been quite amicable just a few hours ago. What transpired to cause such a drastic change in her demeanor within such a short period of time?

What on earth had happened?

Puzzled, Sherry asked, “Grandmother, why do you want me to kneel?!”

In response, Old Madam Jones’s face darkened. She glared at Sherry venomously, “You have the nerve to ask why?! Don’t you know what you and Mitchell have done?!

You two audacious people dared to deceive our Jones Family. Do you really think no one can touch you?!

Amanda! Make this ungrateful girl kneel for me! She must explain every detail of what transpired today, or else, do not let her leave this house!”
