Chapter 78 - 78: The Fickle Old Madam Jones!



“You!”

The moment Sherry Jones spoke, the expression on Old Madam Jones’ face instantly froze, replaced by a look of suppressed rage.

“Amanda! Stand up!” Old Madam Jones ordered irritably.

“Mom…you…you’re not seriously expecting me to bow to this little brat, are you?” Amanda reluctantly stood up, her face full of resentment. “Sister-in-law, you know what they say, don’t make bets you can’t afford to lose. Once words are spoken, they’re like water spilled. You can’t take them back, can you?” Mori Jones once again taunted.

“You!”

Amanda was immediately enraged, her face flushed with anger. Even worse, now Old Madam Jones wasn’t siding with her.

“Enough, Amanda! Keep the big picture in mind! When Mom asks you to bow, you bow. Don’t you understand?!” At this point, Will Jones suddenly stood up and spoke.

Whoosh!

Amanda instantly felt wronged and looked at Will Jones in astonishment, “Will, even you…?”

Will Jones fiercely glared at Amanda, almost using a coercing tone, “If you don’t want me to slap you, you better bow now!”

As Old Madam Jones’ son, how could Will Jones not understand his mother’s intentions?

The demand for Amanda to bow was just sacrificing short-term face for a larger good, a preparation for what was to come next.

As long as Amanda backed down, Sherry would have nothing to say. When the bet was mentioned later, it wouldn’t be easy for her to go against Old Madam Jones.

Even if Sherry did dare to contradict Old Madam Jones, she was on the losing side and Old Madam could bite back, accusing her of being inconsiderate and suppressing the matter.

However, he could not say these words in front of Sherry. So, for now, it was necessary to allow Amanda to suffer a bit of grievance.

“What are you waiting for! Do you really want me to hit you?” Will Jones spoke sharply.

“Fine! I’ll do it! I’ll do it!”

Amanda, with tears in her eyes, walked resentfully to White Mitchell, then glared at him fiercely.

But at this time, White just smiled faintly. He couldn’t be bothered to expose Old Madam Jones’s little schemes. If Old Madam Jones wanted to play tricks, he could play along!

Meanwhile, Amanda was resolute. She knelt down with a thud and gave White a hasty bow.

But clearly, Amanda was not sincere. As she stood up, she immediately sneered at White and said, “You little brat! Just you wait! One day, I’ll make you bow back to me!”

Afterwards, Amanda sat back in her seat, fuming, and glared at White.

Seeing this scene come to an end, a satisfied smile finally appeared on Old Madam Jones’s face.

“Alright, alright. We’re all family here. Let bygones be bygones. From now on, let’s not bring it up again.” Said Old Madam Jones, feigning magnanimity.

She then turned her gaze back to Sherry and continued, “Sherry, look at your aunt. She’s so understanding and has contributed a lot to this family.”

“Now that you’re back, you should learn from your aunt more. It will be beneficial for you to work under Snowden.”

Hmm?

Hearing this, Sherry’s face tense up, revealing a puzzled expression.

At this point, Mori Jones next to her spoke up: “Mom, what do you mean by that? Working under Snowden?”

“Weren’t we clear that as long as Sherry met the three conditions, she would be the general manager? Have you forgotten?

At this moment, Sherry Jones also had red-rimmed eyes. She looked at Old Madam Jones with surprise, wanting to hear her explanation.

But then, Old Madam Jones simply spoke insincerely: “All are family members, what’s wrong with a joke? Surely it can’t be taken seriously?

As a family, why keep track of so much? Moreover, Sherry is inexperienced. If we hastily let her become general manager, how will the employees respect her?

Do you still want our Jones Family to be laughed at by the employees for favoritism?”

These heavy truths felt like mountains, weighing on Sherry and making her breathless, her eyes instantly clouded with a mist of tears.

“Mom, that’s not what was said before. When you picked on Sherry, why didn’t you mention not to keep track then?

Now she’s successfully met all three conditions after great hardships, but you say we are family, there’s no need to be so pedantic?” Mori Jones looked at Old Madam Jones with heartache and indignation.

“Silence!” Old Madam Jones immediately rebuked aloud.

At this time, a smug expression unavoidably appeared on the faces of Snowden Jones and his family of three.

“Dear Aunt, Grandmother is doing this for the good of the Jones Family. As a family, why are you so petty? Are you trying to seek some benefits?” Snowden sneered.

Amanda, who had been boiling with anger, also vented her frustrations, speaking emphatically: “Is it really so difficult for her to work under Snowden?

Don’t forget that for the first two conditions, she merely basked in the glory of my son-in-law. If it were not for my son-in-law inadvertently getting into trouble with Longman, would she, Sherry Jones, have such luck?

Allowing her to return now is a blessing earned over several lifetimes. And she still wants to be the general manager? Ask her if she is capable or even deserving of it!” wow!

Listening to these words, Mori felt even more frustrated for Sherry. She turned to look directly at Will Jones, questioning him: “Big Brother, do you also think so?

Sister! Have you caused enough trouble!?

Can’t you maintain some sense of propriety? Just now your sister-in-law lowered her pride for family harmony and even knelt!

Can’t she make a small sacrifice? Besides, is it really unfair for her to work under Snowden? The company is still going to pay her!”

Hearing this, Mori’s heart felt as if it had dropped into an ice cellar, an intense cold rushing to her heart.

Looking at the people in the Jones family, she felt unbearably disappointed, almost wishing she could leave the family immediately.

At this time, Sherry didn’t fare any better, seeming to lose her spirit.

Even though she never thought about becoming a general manager, voluntarily giving up her position was entirely different from being forcibly stripped of it.

I can give you what’s mine, but you can’t forcibly snatch it from me. Otherwise, how does that make you different from a robber?

At this very moment, Sherry’s heart was completely chilled.

At this point, Old Madam Jones continued in an authoritarian tone reminiscent of olden times: “Enough! Stop talking, this matter is settled!

Sherry, return to prepare yourself, report to the company tomorrow. As for your position, you’ll be working as Snowden’s assistant.

Remember, this is an opportunity I’m giving you. Learn properly under

Snowden, and if you can’t perform well, I’ll fire you at any time!”

Listening to these words, which sounded as if she was a charity case, Sherry’s tears finally began to flow.

Was this charity?

This was clearly what she deserved. Not only did they forcibly snatch it but they treated her like a beggar.. Was this reality?
