King's Awakening

Chapter 177: Chapter 177: Sherry Jones is White Mitchell’s Achilles’ heel!

Translator: 549690339

Sayon, the Jones Family!

With a heart-wrenching pain, Sherry Jones’s pretty face twisted instantly, with a hint of pallor coming up.

At this moment, Sherry looked utterly downcast, just like a flickering candle in the wind, always on the brink of extinction.

Despite everything, Sherry was still stubbornly looking at Old Madam Jones, her eyes defiant, akin to a pair of knives, staring at the face of Old Madam Jones.

“Staring!? Dare you still? Why? Unhappy, are you!?”

Snowden Jones, seeing this, arrogantly looked down at Sherry, then slapped her pretty face again without mercy.

In an instant, several ghastly handprints appeared on Sherry’s face, even causing her lips to bleed.

“Granny, are you satisfied now? Can I have my goods returned to me now?” Sherry stared at Old Madam Jones defiantly, speaking word by word.

Upon hearing this, the expression of Old Madam Jones turned even more gloomily and she coldly said, “Sherry Jones! Get this straight! You are the one who lost the goods!

You’re the one who owes us, the Jones Family, an explanation!

You have just taken office and have already caused such a severe loss to the Jones Group. Now, I give you two options—either you pay to settle this or go and apologize to Mr. Weiden with White Mitchell in tow!”

“Don’t you dare!!!” Sherry growled through gritted teeth, refusing to submit.

This time, no matter what, she could not incriminate White Mitchell. This was her mistake, she had played into the hands of Old Madam Jones. She absolutely could not harm White Mitchell. Not at all!

At this thought, Sherry’s gaze became even more determined.

At the sight of this, Snowden Jones, scoffed nonchalantly: “If money’s not an option, and she refuses to compromise, is this the responsibility of a general manager?

Don’t forget, that’s a sum of two hundred million. Even after subtracting the profits, we have to at least repay a debt of over a hundred million.

Now, only Mr. Weiden can help you solve this problem, yet you refuse to acknowledge this. Do you really expect the Jones Family to take the blame for you!?”

Taking advantage of the situation, Amanda also added fuel to the fire, chiming in: “Exactly, it was someone who initially guaranteed a doubling of the company’s performance, but now, not only did the performance not increase, she dug such a big hole instead.

Over a hundred million, huh! You think it’s just over a hundred bucks? Unless the Jones Group stops eating and drinking for several years, how can we repay the debt?

Besides, do you think we’re harming you? Giving Mr. Weiden an apology, you could be the wife of the young master of the Weiden Family, enjoying wealth and luxury. Many people yearn for this, but you see our good intentions as nothing. You’re pitifully stupid!”

Sherry faced the two women’s sarcastic remarks, her lips tightly pressed, resolutely silent, as though she didn’t hear them at all.

She could apologize, even when she was cut to pieces it would be fine. However, she must not involve White Mitchell again. She couldn’t implicate him any further.

Faced with Sherry’s unmoved stance, a trace of resentment seemed to thicken on the face of Old Madam Jones who sat in the main seat.

However, she knew that often, outright force could lead to a backlash.

To get Sherry to yield, they would have to start with White Mitchell!

Thinking of this, Old Madam Jones feigned a sincere act and patiently said, “Silly girl! How can you be so confused? We’re all doing this for your own good.

Think about it, Mr. Weiden isn’t going to take White’s life. It’s just asking him to bow his head. Is that so hard? Moreover, given it started with him hurting someone, isn’t it right for him to apologize?

Plus, you’re much more aware of his current situation than I am. Now, by doing this, you’re not helping him but rather harming him. Do you think you alone can deal with the Imperial Group?”

Hearing this, a complex look flashed in Sherry’s eyes.

Seeing this, Old Madam Jones splashed a cunning light in her eyes and continued to incite, “Just think about it, once you marry Mr. Weiden, you’ll be the mistress of the Weiden Family.

And he, White Mitchell, would also become Mr. Weiden’s brother-in-law, and if Mr. Weiden doesn’t respect him, at least out of respect for you, would the Imperial Group dare to continue acting against White Mitchell so blatantly then?”

Right now, by defiantly resisting you’re offending the Imperial Group and the Weiden Family, two of the leading elite families. Can you handle either of them?

You’re not helping him now, you’re harming him! Foolish girl! Granny has experienced much more in life than you, I’ve walked more roads than you’ve had meals. Listen to granny’s advice, bow your head.”

Upon…

Upon hearing Old Madam Jones’s words, Sherry Jones fell completely silent, her mind filled with what Madam Jones had just said.

Indeed, apologizing to Hans Weiden is undoubtedly the most direct way to help White Mitchell now, without a doubt.

But, White Mitchell has made so many sacrifices for her, this time, how could she bear to see him suffer this humiliation again?

Complicated emotions rapidly spread through Sherry’s mind.

Soon, her face showed an incredibly complicated look, and she fell into deep thought.

Old Madam Jones, upon seeing this, gave a cold sneer within her heart, knowing that her words were about to take effect. She knew that with a little more pressure, Sherry would certainly give in.

With that thought, Old Madam Jones shot a glance at Amanda and her daughter.

Amanda and Snowden Jones both nodded in understanding and, one on the left and one on the right, directly walked up to Sherry’s side.

The next moment, a vicious smile appeared on Snowden’s face, and without any pretence, she said, “Granny! I think this wretched girl won’t cry without seeing her coffin!

Anyway, she’s unwilling to apologize to Mr. Weiden, so for our Jones family, she’s just a waste who has caused us to lose more than a billion!

With such a person, I’m going to give her a few punishments. Granny, you won’t object, will you?”

After speaking, Snowden’s hand moved and landed directly on Sherry’s face.

Seeing this, Amanda followed suit and sneered at Sherry, “See? You have no power, no influence, you deserve nothing but to be bullied by us!

If you became Mrs. Weiden, would we dare to bully you? Hehe… you brought this all upon yourself!”

Smack!

Amanda also followed with a slap. Instantly, both mother and daughter, as if they had deep-seated hatred for Sherry, started to torment Sherry violently.

Soon, Sherry’s face was covered with savage handprints. Her screams echoed throughout the entire Jones family premises, even those outside could hear it clearly.

Boom!

“Jones Family! You’re courting death!!!”

At that moment, a roar that resembled a growling tiger and a howling dragon sounded. The voice, filled with fury as overwhelming as a raging storm, attacked the entirety of the Jones Family instantly.

Dragons have scales that must not be touched. If touched, they will react in fury!

And Sherry Jones is such a scale of White Mitchell, the True Dragon!

Whoever touches her, dies!

The next moment, with a loud “Thud,” the door to the Jones mansion was kicked open. One of the doors was flung straight into the living room.

The entire Jones mansion shook as if it was hit by an earthquake. Everyone’s hearts trembled, their faces aghast as they looked towards the doorway.

White Mitchell!

It was White Mitchell!
