“Grandmother!”
Upon seeing Old Madam Jones engulfed in anger, Snowden Jones quickly reminded her.
Old Madam Jones took a deep breath to calm her inner emotions, and then looked towards Snowden Jones, giving her a nod.
Then she heard Old Madam Jones say, in a grumbling tone, “Fine! If you insist on making this old woman apologize to you, then I will apologize today! However, I need to make things clear upfront.
After I apologize to you today, Sherry, you need to go back and act as the CEO for me. Otherwise, don’t even think about seeing Logan’s ashes!”
After speaking, Old Madam Jones used her walking stick to saunter up rather reluctantly, bowing towards both Sherry Jones and White Mitchell.
Then she said with great reluctance, “I was wrong before, and two of you were wronged because of it. I hope you can forgive me.”
After putting on a show, Old Madam Jones immediately straightened up her waist and irritably asked, “Are you satisfied now? Can Sherry go back to be the CEO now!?”
“Brother, grandmother has admitted her mistake, let’s call it even.” Sherry Jones tried to persuade him.
White Mitchell gave a cold smile, and then continued taunting, “You are so eager to bring Sherry back, let me guess, are you afraid that the Imperial Group will also target you?”
Whoosh!
Upon hearing these words, Old Madam Jones paled instantly while in fear that Sherry might reconsider, “Where … Where’s that happening! It’s a pure nonsense!”
“Whether it is or not, you know in your heart.” White Mitchell sneered coldly.
At this point, Snowden Jones couldn’t help but blurt out, “Even if it’s true, so what!? The trouble you cause shouldn’t you be the one to bear it!?
If you didn’t scam the Woods Family and the Thomas Family under the name of the Imperial Group, would they have gone looking for trouble with us?
If you still consider yourself a man, then come forward, accept the responsibilities you should accept, and don’t always implicate the people around you!”
“Snowden Jones, you shut up! Don’t talk about my brother like that! If you dare speak nonsense again, I will take my brother and leave Sayon immediately!” Sherry Jones said with resolution.
The usually soft-spoken her, showed a strong side for White Mitchell at this moment.
“Enough! Everyone shut up!”
Seeing that the situation was getting out of control; Old Madam Jones hastily spoke up before swiftly pulling Snowden Jones behind her.
She directed her words to Sherry Jones, threatening her word by word, “I’ve done everything you asked me to do for you. This old body of mine, giving an apology to two young folks like you, I’ve been more than fair and generous!
The hardships that the Jones Family is facing now was all because of him. If our Jones Family falls, it won’t do you two any good either, don’t forget that Logan’s ashes are still with the Jones family!
I will make my stand clear today; you either take this CEO position or you take it! If you two do not show up at the Jones family tomorrow, you can’t blame me for being heartless.”
After threatening Sherry Jones, Old Madam Jones then coldly ordered,
“Snowden! Let’s go!”
After the two of them left, Sherry Jones stood there with a helpless look on her face, her feelings immensely intricate.
So it turns out it really was White Mitchell helping her; he even risked impersonating the Imperial Group to deceive others.
It was all because of her uselessness, he only did it because of her, that he ended up attracting the attention of the Imperial Group.
Thinking of this, Sherry Jones blamed herself immensely, she couldn’t help but comfort, “Brother, no worries. You don’t have to worry about the Jones family.
I’m there.”
After saying that, Sherry Jones’s face revealed a lingering bitterness and she looked a little listless.
White Mitchell gently stroked her head,” Have you really decided to go back to the Jones family? If you’re doing it for me, you don’t have to.
In my eyes, the Imperial Group is nothing more than ants. If I want to, I can solve this trouble at any time.”
“So, you don’t need to worry for me, nor do you need to choose to return to the Jones Family because of me.”
Hearing these words, Sherry Jones squeezed out a small smile.
She knew full well that the current White Mitchell was no match for the Imperial Group. He was saying this only to shoulder everything for her.
But how could she bear to let him bear all this alone?
So Sherry Jones shook her head with a smile, pretending to be nonchalant, and said: “Brother, you don’t need to persuade me anymore. I’ve decided. I’ll go back tomorrow.”
Seeing Sherry Jones so insistent, White Mitchell didn’t say anything more, only mentioning that he would accompany her tomorrow.
Upon hearing this, Sherry immediately became anxious. She knew the Jones Family tomorrow would be extremely dangerous, how could she bear to let White Mitchell suffer with her?
But White Mitchell’s insistence left her feeling helpless, so she had to let it be.
That evening, after Old Madam Jones and Snowden Jones returned to the Jones Family, they publicly announced the news of Sherry Jones taking over as General Manager.
At first, Will Jones and his wife had some objections, but after hearing Snowden Jones’s explanation, they agreed.
Not only that, but Will Jones also brought up the point about Longman.
In his opinion, it is almost certain that Longman’s previous favorable treatment towards the Jones Family was simply because he had been deceived by White Mitchell.
Now those distributors who had left had dispersed, which further confirmed that Longman already knew the truth.
That being the case, the ten million that Longman had given to the Jones Family earlier was now hot potato.
Although the money has been frozen by the bank now, he thought that no matter what, they had to find a way to return it.
Otherwise, if they offend Longman, it would be no joke, and he was afraid that Longman might come after the Jones Family next.
After hearing Will Jones’s analysis, Old Madam Jones also nodded with deep approval.
“Will is right. Longman is not someone we Jones can offend. Conveniently, when Sherry returns tomorrow, let’s deal with this matter as well.” Old Madam Jones indicated.
Then she looked at Will Jones: “Will, this matter has been handed over to you. No matter what, make contact with Longman, and let’s apologize to him in person tomorrow, showing the sincerity of our Jones family.”
Upon hearing this, Will Jones immediately started arranging things.
After Old Madam Jones arranged everything, she couldn’t help but sigh, saying mentally: This is really a season full of troubles!
On the other side, when Will Jones made contact with Nine Dragons Finance, Longman, who received the message, immediately asked for White Mitchell’s opinion.
White Mitchell’s response was simple. Money sent for free should be accepted.
After getting the reply, Longman quickly responded to the Jones Family, telling them that he would personally go there tomorrow.
When Will Jones received Longman’s reply, he heaved a sigh of relief. He had been afraid that Longman might not want the money.
Now it was finally possible to rid themselves of this hot potato.
After Old Madam Jones heard the news, her furrowed brows finally eased a bit. This could probably be considered the only good news of the day.
Next, they would quietly wait for tomorrow’s troubles to come marching at the door, pushing Sherry Jones and White Mitchell out as scapegoats.
“May God protect us, I hope nothing else goes wrong tomorrow. Otherwise, our Jones Family really won’t be able to hold on anymore.” Old Madam Jones prayed silently in her heart..
