Sayon, the Splendid Sayon residential community.
Upon seeing Sherry Jones, Amanda was suddenly illuminated as if she had seen a savior. Her face immediately wore a flattering, pleasing expression as she scampered over to welcome Sherry.
Before anyone else could speak, Amanda reluctantly ratted out White Mitchell and said, âSherry, youâve arrived just in time. Look at White Mitchell; within a day, he forgot his place.
He dares to stop us from seeing you, can you believe this?
Your career has just begun, yet heâs behaving so arrogantly. If this continues for a couple more years, what would happen then?â
Upon hearing this, Sherryâs brow furrowed and her face was instantly filled with a look of disgust.
However, due to it being night, Amanda didnât realize the change in Sherryâs facial expression.
At this moment, Old Madam Jones, upon seeing Sherryâs arrival, quickly put on a grin and went over to greet her.
âSherry, youâve come down personally. Look at yourself, not caring for your health. Your status is different now, it would greatly affect your work if you caught a fever or a cold,â Old Madam Jones said with a look of concern.
Upon hearing this, a hint of self-mockery flashed in Sherryâs eyes. These people from the Jones Family only cared about her wellbeing during such occasions.
Amanda, noticing the situation and seizing the opportunity said,âThatâs right, Sherry. What Old Madam Jones is saying is true. Your status has changed drastically now; apart from taking care of your health, you also need to be wary of the people around you.
You surely know, with your status, the people who were beneath you before might be looking to rise up through you. Like some people, who dare to stop even us.
Trust me, I havenât seen anyone in Sayon that leeches as much as he does. Not even a second one apart from him.â
âOh? The âsome peopleâ youâre referring to â are you talking about me?â White Mitchell said, with a playful look on his face, not angry but amused.
âHuh! At least youâve got a bit of self-awareness.â Amanda disdainfully glanced at White in a strange tone.
At this moment, noticing that something was amiss with Sherryâs expression, Old Madam Jones hurriedly scolded Amanda, âAmanda, stop talking!â
Amanda retorted unhappily, âMother, what did I say that was wrong? Donât even talk about now, White was never a match for Sherry even before. Besides, Sherry is now the queen of the business world in Sayon, second only to David Herb. There are countless people like White Mitchell.
Now that he has gotten an advantage, heâs selling favors and even dares to offend the Jones Family, he is blatantly disrespecting Sherry.
In my opinion, with Sherryâs status, she could select any kind of man she wants. It would be best if she divorces White Mitchell before they have a child. In this day and age, getting a divorce isnât a big deal.
When the time comes, our Jones family will help Sherry pick someone younger, better looking, and wealthier than him. There are plenty of people who are better than him.â
Even in front of White, Amanda confidently spat this out without the slightest regard for his feelings.
In her opinion, White Mitchell was just a penniless leech who had nothing without Sherry.
He just had the audacity to make her kneel and apologize, how ridiculous! Now, she would make sure to disparage him in front of Sherry to make him regret his actions.
After making these remarks, Amanda even looked provocatively at White, full of conceit.
However, she failed to notice that Sherryâs face had already turned completely dark.
She never imagined that after how the Jones family treated her at the bidding meeting during the day, they would still have the nerve to tell her to divorce her husband right in front of her.
What did they take her for?
That esteemed Chen ShiMei who starts things and then abandons them?
Do they really think that everyone, like them, will do anything necessary to achieve their purpose?
Not to mention, my feelings for White Mitchell canât be stirred with a word or two from others. If it werenât for White Mitchellâs silent contributions, I wouldnât be where I am today.
They even dare to defame White Mitchell right in front of me, itâs simply unforgivable!
At that thought, Sherry Jones could not help but scold, âEnough! Shut up! I donât want to see you again, get out of here now!â
Thisâ¦
Amanda, who had been looking triumphant, suddenly faltered when she heard this.
Before she could react, Old Madam Jones who was standing next to her slapped her directly in the face.
A resounding slap echoed in the air.
In the next moment, Old Madam Jones began to angrily hit the floor with her cane, admonishing Amanda, âScoundrel! Apologize to Sherry and White immediately!
If you say another word, I will tear your mouth apart!â
âMom, Iâ¦â Amanda held her face, looking bewilderedly at Old Madam Jones, with a sudden look of grievance.
Did she say something wrong? She didnât say anything wrong at all!n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Shouldnât she kick out someone like White Mitchell, a man who only knows how to live on womenâs efforts?
She gave her good advice, but in the end, she was the one at fault?
The more Amanda thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt, she cursed White Mitchell ferociously, wishing him all the misfortune in the world.
At this time, Old Madam Jones, who had just finished scolding Amanda, continued to appease Sherry, saying, âSherry, your aunt just now wasâ¦â
Before she could finish her sentence, Sherry interrupted, âGrandma, you donât need to say anything. What my brother just said is exactly what I want to tell you.
If you canât even do this, then thereâs nothing more to say.
Itâs getting late. You can stay here if you want, but my brother and I wonât accompany you anymore.â
As she said this, Sherry Jones plucked up the courage, and immediately took White Mitchellâs hand, turning to walk into the community, leaving the Jones family standing in disarray.
At this time, Amanda, who had just been scolded, started her incessant complaining, âSee, see, our good intentions were not appreciated by that ungrateful girl and her illegitimate brother.
From her attitude, instead of supporting our Jones Family, sheâd rather see us in the dirt.
I just donât know what kind of luck sheâs had to actually get hold of the Nezzi project. God must be blind to allow thisâ
Just as Amanda was rambling, Old Madam Jones couldnât help but slap her again, yelling, âShut up! Shut up! Shut up!
Are you ever going to stop? Do I need to sew your mouth shut for you to stay quiet? Do you know what our Jones Family has missed out on because of your words?
No matter how you do it, you must get White Mitchellâs forgiveness and take responsibility for what you said just now. Otherwise, I will divorce you from the Jones family right now!â
Divorceâ¦divorce me?
