“You’re all truly fucking shameless!”
Elijah Bailey and Mori Jones, their eyes red, stared fiercely at Will Jones and his daughter, rage burning in their chests.
Snowden Jones defiantly met their gaze, a thick sneer on her pretty face, and then slowly said: “Instead of impotently raging here, you should really be thinking of a way out.
Though, even if you go now to apologize to those suppliers and distributors, they might not even give you the time of day.
You can only vent your impotent rage here, haha .”
Hearing this, the anger in Elijah Bailey and Mori Jones only grew more intense.
They had seen shamelessness, but they had never seen anyone sink as low as Will Jones and his daughter!
The Jones Group is the Jones family’s legacy, they, as people of the Jones family, do nothing to protect the interests of the Jones Group and instead engage in this self-destructive behavior.
They exemplify the phrase ‘utter shamelessness’ to the fullest!
At this moment, Will Jones slowly rose, his gaze falling on Sherry Jones as he said teasingly: “General Manager Jones! So, have you finished questioning us?
It’s also time to clock out, excuse us, but if there’s nothing else, we father and daughter won’t keep you company any longer.
Let’s go, we’re off to dinner!”
Will Jones completely disregarded the stinging gazes of Sherry Jones and the others, leaving the company casually, he was completely fearless.
“Shameless! Shameless! Shameless!!!” Elijah Bailey’s fist slammed onto the table in the conference room, the thumping sound loud enough to express his anger at this moment.
Then he took out his mobile phone and angrily declared: “I’ll find someone to help us now! We cannot let their plots succeed!”
It was clear that the person Elijah Bailey was looking for was White Mitchell. In his view, only White Mitchell would be able to help Jones Group escape this predicament now.
After all, White Mitchell had arranged so many things discreetly behind the scenes. His ability was definitely not trifling.
But just as Elijah Bailey was going to make the call, Sherry Jones stopped him, saying: “Elijah, don’t call yet, let’s wait a few days!”
Huh?
Elijah Bailey was taken aback and then looked at Sherry Jones in surprise, “Miss Sherry, what is this…?”
Biting her lip, Sherry Jones replied with a defiant expression: “Ultimately, the Jones Group is our own business. He has already helped us tremendously with the employee issue.
I can’t run to him for help every time I encounter a problem. I want to try it myself first. If I really can’t manage, it wouldn’t be too late to ask for his help then.
Once the Jones Group overcomes this crisis, I will personally find him to express my gratitude.”
This…
Hearing Sherry’s words, Elijah Bailey paused, and then looked at her with a satisfied expression.
At this time, Sherry, who was advocating for self-reliance, reminded him of Logan Jones.
Logan was like this back in the day, willing to tackle everything himself. He was not the type to easily admit defeat, much less turn to others for help willingly.
Sherry was the same now. This resiliency really was quite like her father Logan. She was, indeed, Logan’s daughter.
Although Elijah Bailey admired this tenacity in Sherry, he still sent a text to White Mitchell discreetly.
This was a task entrusted to him by White Mitchell. He could not fail the trust White had placed in him. Moreover, in his eyes, they were all family, no need for pleasantries.
However, when he was sending the message, Elijah Bailey still mentioned in the message that Sherry Jones wanted to solve the problem independently and advised White not to squash her enthusiasm.
Upon receiving the message, White Mitchell’s face also showed a satisfied smile, then he immediately made a call to Beckett.
This time, taking the advice of Elijah Bailey, he didn’t offer too much help. He just explained things clearly to Sherry and kindly reminded them that Sherry had strong support, a reminder for them to take things more seriously in the future.
With White’s ability, he could fully find a batch of new suppliers and wholesalers for Sherry Jones, and his strength would be stronger than the original ones from the Jones Group.
But White Mitchell didn’t do that. Since Sherry had plans to lead the Jones Group’s development and expansion, he had to let her gradually build her confidence and ability, realizing her ambition.
After arranging everything, White Mitchell went out and hailed a taxi, directly arriving downstairs of the Jones Group building, waiting for Sherry to finish work.
Around seven in the evening, the other employees of Jones Group were already off work at about six. Only Sherry insisted on working until this late hour.
When a visibly exhausted Sherry saw the long-awaited White Mitchell waiting downstairs, she herself was taken aback.
She quickly put on a smile, masking her inner worries, and ran towards White laughing, “Bro, why are you here? Are you here to pick me up?”
But she did not know that although White had not been in the company today, he was already well aware of anything that happened in the company.
However, White didn’t say much. He just calmly replied, “I didn’t come to pick you up. I came to dine. As today is the first day you started working as a little rich lady, shouldn’t you take me out to celebrate?”
Huh…What?
Sherry hesitated for a moment, then pretending to be disappointed, she immediately glanced at White and said excitedly, “Let’s go! I’m giving you a chance to mooch off a meal! What do you want to eat? The little rich lady will take you there!”
White Mitchell laughed, then pointed to a shopping mall not far from the Jones Group.
Sherry looked at it and immediately covered her wallet, and pretended to say heartily, “You rascal, do you plan to eat your poor sister out of house and home in one meal?”
White Mitchell laughed, but didn’t speak. However, Sherry proactively took his hand and ventured to say, “Let’s go! After this meal, for the next month, you will have to chew on steamed buns!”
When White Mitchell heard these words, he was instantly amused. But he knew that Sherry was just joking with him and most likely, he wouldn’t have to pay for tonight’s meal.
Then, Sherry, full of pride, led White Mitchell into a Western restaurant, really ready to take him out for a big feast.
Sherry immediately took White to a booth outside. Originally, White ordered Beckett to reserve the biggest private room here for him.
After all, there would be quite a few people coming later. However, now they needed to keep a low profile until those suppliers and wholesalers arrived. They could then use an excuse to move, which seemed more reasonable.
However, as soon as they sat down, they saw two figures that Sherry least wanted to see at this time– Will Jones and his daughter!
Just as Sherry was about to switch seats with White Mitchell, Will and his daughter walked straight towards them.
Snowden Jones had a nasty smile on her face and she teased, “Wow, our General Manager does have leisure time. At such a critical moment, you still have the mood to eat?”
A frosty response came from Sherry’s pretty face: “None of your business!”
Upon hearing this, Snowden sneered and continued to mock, “Well, we don’t know how long you can hold the position of the general manager. If you do not enjoy life now, when the company goes bankrupt in a few days, there won’t be such opportunities anymore.
How I envy you living so freely, unlike us who are toiling away. We even arranged a meeting with a few new suppliers and wholesalers of the new companies late at night, right next to your big private room.
Oh yes, we are gold card members here. When you pay the bill later, you can mention our name for a discount, haha “
