King’s Awakening - Chapter 310
Chapter 310: Chapter 310: Want to find a team of engineers? Dream on!
Sayon, Jones Family.
Early the next morning, news of White Mitchell’s uproar at the casino quickly reached the Jones Family’s people.
Will Jones, who was already worried that Sherry Jones wouldn’t be able to handle Bing, flew into a rage when he heard that White Mitchell had ruined Bing.
“Mother, look at what White Mitchell has done. I don’t think he’ll rest until he ruins the Jones Family!” Will Jones said angrily.
Seeing this, Amanda jumped on the bandwagon, “Sherry claimed she would help our family, but look, she’s created a big mess!
She is the bidder for Nezzi New Town, so of course, Bing didn’t dare to do anything to her, but what about our Jones Family?
I think she and White Mitchell want to ruin us, that’s when they’ll be satisfied!”
Upon hearing this news, Old Madam Jones’s face turned black as liver, she immediately said in a stern voice: “Prepare the car! We’re going to the company! No matter what, today Sherry will have to explain things to the Jones family!”
“Yes, we can’t let this matter rest. White Mitchell made this mess, and Sherry must take responsibility!” Upon hearing this, Will Jones immediately rushed to start the car.
About half an hour later, the people from the Jones family appeared at the Jones Group building.
They disregarded the protocol and stormed directly into Sherry Jones’s office.
Sherry Jones, previously discussing construction team matters with Elijah Bailey, had to temporarily put aside her work and asked Bailey and others to leave first.
After Bailey left, he quickly called White Mitchell. Considering what happened yesterday, he couldn’t afford to take it lightly.
After that, the office was left with Sherry and the Jones family members.
Then, Will Jones began to question Sherry directly, “Sherry, what was the plan? You were supposed to settle our debt with Bing.
Now, instead of settling the debt, you let White Mitchell ruin Bing?
Bing was only after money. If you’d given him the money, it would have been settled. Instead, without saying a word, you let that bastard White Mitchell ruin him.
Now, how are we going to fix this mess? Don’t think you can escape responsibility, both you and White Mitchell caused it!”
Amanda also angrily accused, “Exactly! We trusted you so much. If you couldn’t do it, you shouldn’t have taken it upon yourself.
You claim to be the bidder for Nezzi New Town, but couldn’t even pay a few billions, why did you even participate in the bidding? It would have been better if you’d closed shop.”
Hearing all this, Sherry felt bitter. She had been busy assembling a construction team and the Jones family was here to rub salt into her wounds.
Also, she almost lost her life trying to help them, and they are now blaming her?
At the thought of this, Sherry couldn’t help but tear up, she looked at Old Madam Jones with misty eyes, and asked, “Grandmother, do you think the same?
I almost lost my life trying to help the Jones Family. If my brother hadn’t shown up in time, I…”
Old Madam Jones sat on the sofa expressionless, as if she hadn’t heard Sherry’s words at all, she even impatiently interrupted, “I don’t care what your reasons were.
All I know is that you promised to help the Jones Family, but not only did you not solve the problem, you made it worse.
On this matter, you must give the Jones Family an answer, otherwise, even if I die today, I’ll die here!
To force your own grandmother to death, I want to see who would want to work with someone like you!”
“Grandmother, you…”
Sherry was suddenly speechless. The tears of grievance circled in her eyes, she collapsed weakly in her chair, looking utterly helpless.
“What more do you want from me?” Sherry asked with tears streaming down her face.
The Jones family exchanged glances, immediately Will Jones said, “Well, you could give us the ten billion that Bing wanted, so we can have some security.
Either you sign a declaration of responsibility for us, clearly stating that the issue with Bing is your business and White Mitchell’s, and it has nothing to do with the Jones Family.
Also, you have to be clear about the money issue, it’s your responsibility to pay it off.”
Facing the pressing aggression of the Jones Family members, Sherry Jones felt helpless.
Just at that moment, some noisy voices suddenly came from outside the door, followed by the direct opening of Sherry’s office door.
What Sherry Jones and the Jones Family’s people didn’t expect was that the intruder happened to be Grandy Anderson.
Fixing her gaze on Grandy Anderson’s acerbic face, Sherry Jones’ face instantly darkened.
“Oh, look at you all gathered here. What? Having a family meeting? Discussing how to deal with the Bing’s issue, huh?
Thank you Jones Family, had it not been for your trouble, how could our Imperial Group have established the partnership with Leonardo Kim so soon?” Grandy Anderson sarcastically taunted.
What?
Leonardo Kim?
Upon hearing that, Sherry Jones’ heart skipped a beat and her face turned even paler than before, she couldn’t help but retort, “It’s none of your business what we’re discussing. This is the Jones Group, not your Imperial Group
Please leave right now, you’re not welcomed here!”
Unaffected by Sherry’s fury, Grandy Anderson chuckled and continued her sarcasm, “It seems that your company is doing well these days, and even Mr. Jones has developed some nerve, huh?
Hehe…Don’t rush to get angry. I’m not here today to pick a fight with you. I’m here to send you an invitation.
Take it, it’s for the partnership celebration we at Imperial Group are hosting with Leonardo Kim, who is in charge of the construction team. At that time, over ninety percent of construction project leaders in Sayon will present.
I heard that your Jones Group is also currently in contact with construction teams, right? So, do us a favor and come join, hahaha…”
Her sarcastic laughter hung over the entire Jones Group building.
Upon hearing Grandy Anderson’s words, the Jones Group was also instantly plunged into a tense atmosphere.
They never expected that the Imperial Group would actually associate with Leonardo Kim and even organize a celebration of their partnership.
Clearly, they want to show the people in the Nezzi command that they, Imperial Group, now hold the resources of the construction team.
With Kim, the intimidating figure on their side, which construction team in Sayon would dare not to give him the respect due?
No doubt, at that time, even if the Jones Group want to find a construction team of about ten to twenty people, it would be even harder than reaching the moon.
At this moment, Grandy Anderson took out an invitation with a playful expression on her face and casually threw it in front of Sherry Jones.
Looking at that invitation lying on the floor, Sherry Jones’ face was filled with the utmost seriousness.
In contrast, members of Jones Family stood nonchalantly in the originally place as if they were strangers, watching coldly as Sherry Jones was scorned by Grandy Anderson.
Even Amanda chimed in to kick Sherry while she was down: “Serves you right, you brought this upon yourself. We all said that damn mongrel is bad luck, but you wouldn’t believe us.
Now, see for yourself. Bing’s brother is now seeking revenge for him. With you like this, you still hope to win the New City project in Nezzi.
Stop dreaming! If you can’t find a construction team, get ready to die a grisly death along with White Mitchell!”
“You!”
Hearing Amanda’s words, the tears welled up in Sherry Jones’ eyes and she couldn’t stop them from falling, appearing completely helpless.
Right at this moment, White Mitchell’s voice came from outside the office, only to hear him calmly say, “Who said Sherry can’t find a construction team?
Isn’t it just a partnership celebration? Well, Sherry was just planning to host one too!”
