Chapter 69 A Shameless Family

The Jenningses turned even paler. The thing they had feared most was happening.

Even though the thirty million was borrowed by Heather, they didn’t dare to delay the return of thatdebt.

The money belonged to the chairman of Four Seas Corporation, after all.

He was the man who had bought over fifty–one percent of the Four Seas Corporation’s shares.Compared to this man, the Jenningses were but á tiny ant. So, naturally, they had to return the debt ontime.

“Mr. Sawyer, didn’t we agree to pay back the debt one year later?” Demi asked timidly.

“Yes. On behalf of Heather Jennings, our chairman agreed to borrow you the money without interest fora year.”

At this, Jack’s expression darkened. “However, you burned your bridges and heartlessly took away Ms.Jennings‘ shares. Our chairman was so angry that he demanded you all to return the money today.”

What?

Because of Heather?

The Jenningses were seriously starting to regret everything they’d done today.

“Heather, I’m sorry for everything we did to you today. I’ll give you all your shares back, so please callthe chairman and beg him to give us more time!” Demi was a rather decisive person.

She hurriedly apologized to her granddaughter.

There was no other way. Apart from Heather, no one else could help the Jenningses now.

“But Granny, those are my shares!” Jacob said unhappily. fifteen percent of shares meant a whole lot ofbenefits for him every year.

Slap!

Demi turned and slapped Jacob across the face as she yelled, “If it weren’t for you two manipulatingme with your words yesterday, we wouldn’t have made such a mistake in the first place! If you don’tkeep your mouth shut, I’ll take back all of your shares!”

Jacob was feeling extremely embarrassed that he had gotten slapped in front of everybody, but morethan that, he was furious.

When he saw Demi’s sharp glare, however, he stayed quiet and moved aside unwillingly.

“I’ve never even seen the man. How do you expect me to beg him for anything?” Heather scoffed.

She was beyond disappointed in the Jenningses. She couldn’t care less if Demi returned all herfamily’s shares to them.

So what if Granny said that she’ll return my family’s shares? It is still up to her whether the shares willbe taken back or not in the future.

After what had happened today, Heather would never fall so easily for Demi’s promises again.

She resented the fact that she was foolish enough to give everything for her family, only to get lookeddown upon and bullied by them in return.

Since that was the case, she felt that she no longer need to help the Jennings family any further.

“Heather, I’m sorry. I’m really sorry for making such a stupid mistake. Please, forgive me this alright?Once you settle this, not only will I return your shares, but I’ll also even add on another ten percent!”Demi suppressed the fury she felt and started begging her granddaughter.

Seeing that it was the first time Demi had begged so desperately. Heather’s heart softenedimmediately.

Despite that, she really couldn’t do anything to help.

She had always wanted to go visit the chairman, but she had never gotten the chance to. She didn’teven have any way to contact him.

“Granny, I really don’t have any of the chairman’s contact information. I can’t do anything either,”Heather said helplessly.

“Hmph! You were the one who borrowed the money. It has nothing to do with the Jenningses. Youshould return all the money yourself!” Jacob said shamelessly.

“Yeah! We didn’t get that thirty million. It has nothing to do with us! So you should bear theresponsibilities and pay the chairman back!” Harper scoffed.

“That’s right, Heather. Without any evidence, we’re not going to bear the debt,” Demi said withnarrowed

eyes.

Heather instantly frowned in disbelief when she saw that the Jenningses could actually be soshameless.

She was so angry she started shaking. I can’t believe I softened just now only to get stabbed in theback once again!

However, the betrayal she had endured was nothing compared to the terror she was feeling.
