257 Selling the House to Repay the Debt

An old shareholder spoke, and everyone’s eyes lit up. If it was calculated alone, Zachary and Louis didn’t have more than half of the total shares. The rest were in Madam Harris and Wallace’s hands.

If everyone voted against it, Madam Harris would definitely lose her position as the chairman. Therefore... Everyone’s attention was on Louis and Zachary. One of them held more than 30% of the shares, and the other didn’t have much, but it was still very important.

“You’ve already thought that our Harris family is going to fall! All of you are really as stupid as pigs. Our Harris family won’t be reduced to such a state by such a matter. Do you really think I don’t have money?”

After Madam Harris said this, Zachary’s eyes lit up. No wonder Mother didn’t seem to care about this matter. Moreover, no matter how bad the Harris family is, there are still the companies in Wallace’s hands. If we sell Wallace’s companies, won’t we have everything?

“Then, how can you promise us?”

“That’s right! Let me tell you-if I had known this would happen, I definitely would’ve chosen Wallace when electing the chairman. If you had chosen this kid back then, we wouldn’t be in this state now.”

“I don’t think Wallace wants to come to the Harris Group at all. Why would he come to clean up the Harris Group’s mess?”

I didn’t expect Mother to dissuade these troublemakers with just one sentence. Zachary looked at Madam Harris excitedly. “Mom, I knew you still had a backup plan. Hurry up and take out the money to fill the hole in the company.”

Seeing that the troublemakers had left, Zachary quickly begged his mother.

Unexpectedly, Madam Harris raised her hand and slapped him again. “You better not let me find out that you have anything to do with Wallace, or I will never let you off!”

Of course, Sharon didn’t know what was going on here. But when she entered Wallace’s ward, she heard her mother-in-law scolding from inside. “I already said that I had to find a rich person. Look at what has happened now! Mom actually wants us to sell our house to fill the hole in the Harris family’s funds and live in that 120-square-meter place! I feel... aggrieved.”

Just as Sharon walked into the room, she heard her mother-in-law flare up at Wallace. “Other people’s wives are worth everything. You’re useless if you marry Sharon! I can’t live in a big house for the rest of my life if I count on her. That girlfriend of Louis’s heard about what happened at home and gave him a 200-square-meter residence. Why am I so unlucky to meet someone like Sharon!?”

“Alright, stop talking. Isn’t she already a celebrity now? Let’s save for a few more years. We can definitely afford a new house,” James advised.

June glared fiercely at her husband and said, “You’re still speaking up for her? You want me to wait a few more years? We’ll both die of old age in a few years! Ever since Wallace married Sharon, our family’s life has been getting worse day by day, and our business has plummeted. We could still live in a villa then, but what about now? I still have to buy a villa and live in a shabby building for my family. My friends are all living better than me now. They’re all living so well, but I have to suffer for this.”

“Aunt, what’s the point of you always comparing?” Nicole remarked coldly.

“What’s the point? It’s meaningless-I feel that there’s no point in living now!” June was even angrier at all of them going against her. She said directly, “Because I’m not living as well as them and can’t compare to them, I feel that it’s especially boring!”

Sharon glanced at her mother-in-law helplessly and walked toward her spouse.

June turned around and snorted when she saw Sharon. “You still know how to come! I wonder what you’re doing every day? You don’t even cook; there are so many of us waiting. You’re really something!”

“I was practicing my dance this morning and only have time to come over now. How’s Wallace?” Sharon knew June’s personality too well-she was a snob and a fence sitter. When she had money, she was the boss. When she didn’t have money, she was nothing. Moreover, she liked to compare herself with others. She wanted everything that others had.

If June knew that she had just asked Tommy to buy a new villa for Wallace to rest in, she would probably instantly become obsequious and lick her boots. But from the looks of it, Wallace wouldn’t wake up anytime soon, so Sharon didn’t intend to tell them about the house.
