Chapter 234

Chapter 234 Negotiation Hearing what her husband said, Mrs. Smith stopped crying. She sniffed and looked at Mr. Smith, her eyes red and puffy. “Will she agree with it?”

They knew very well that after what had happened at the Smith Group’s anniversary celebration, they had completely fallen out with Rachel.

So, it would be hard to make Rachel drop the lawsuit.

Moreover, Louis betrayed Rachel first. Now that Jane had caused such a huge trouble, Rachel would definitely not let it go easily.

“Whether she agrees or not, we must give it a try,” Mr. Smith looked at Mrs. Smith and said earnestly.

Having been with this woman for so many years, how could he not know what Mrs. Smith was thinking?

He hesitated for a moment before he continued, “You have to come with me.”

“...”

Before Mrs. Smith could reject him, Mr. Smith raised his hand and interrupted her. “I know you don’t like her, but this is about the Smith family. and Jane. Do you want to watch Jane go to jail?”

Hearing this, Mrs. Smith fell silent.

She slowly closed her eyes and sighed. Despite her reluctance, she spat out. a word, “Alright.”

“Then I’ll contact Rachel first.” Mr. Smith patted her hand, gesturing for her to relax.

Rachel was a little surprised to receive a call from Mr. Smith.

Old Mr. Smith had three sons. Unfortunately, none of them were outstanding.

If Louis wasn’t a smart, cute boy when he was little, Old Mr. Smith would not have valued his eldest son’s family that much.

The far–sighted Mrs. Smith knew it well, so she simply left Louis to Old Mr. Smith’s care. Because of his son, Mr. Smith enjoyed many privileges over his two brothers.

“Miss Grey, I’m Louis‘ father. Do you have time after work? I have something to talk to you about.” Although Mr. Smith did not do well in business, he was qualified as an elder, a father, and a husband.

Rachel raised her eyebrows slightly. “If you have something to tell me, just say it over the phone.”

Facing the Smith family made her feel sick.

If she had an option, she would not meet any of them.

Mr. Smith did not expect Rachel to be so heartless. He felt a bit embarrassed, but he did not fly into a rage.

He unwittingly looked at Mrs. Smith, who was sitting on the sofa. After thinking for a moment, he said calmly, “Jane has been spoiled rotten since she was young. She’s unruly and willful, and she always says something offensive to you. As her parents, we should be blamed for that. We apologize for what she did to you.”

Hearing that, Rachel thought it would be inappropriate to be harsh to Mr.

Smith.

Now that he was sincere to apologize, Rachel did not interrupt him or disconnect the call.

“I called you mainly because I hope you can drop the lawsuit.”

When Rachel heard this, her eyes turned cold. She said with a chuckle, “Drop the lawsuit? My time is precious. I don’t want to waste it on joking around with you!”

Her casual words were carrying obvious contempt and disdain.

From Rachel’s voice alone, Mrs. Smith could imagine how arrogant she was at this moment.

This made her even angrier.

Just as she was about to shoot back, she saw Mr. Smith eye her with a signal.

Now that they were asking a favor from Rachel, they had to be humble and swallow the humiliation.

Mr. Smith pondered for a moment before he braced himself and continued, “Jane should be blamed for hurting you. As long as you’re willing to withdraw the lawsuit, I can promise you anything you want.”
