The Heiress Strikes Back

“Is your brain useless? Do you know how many companies I have under me? The biggest one is enough to feed you for the rest of your life. Do you think you can make me bankrupt just because you say so? And you want to tell Sullivan to do that? How much face do you have?” Theo placed his hand on his arm and spoke in a deep voice.

Sharon nodded. “In that case, I’ll take it as you choosing the second and third options.”

After saying this, she turned around and walked into the banquet hall.

Astonishingly, Theo grabbed Sharon and threatened her, “Who do you think you are? You have already said everything you wanted. Do you think you’re the empress of New York?”

Thereafter, Theo pushed Sharon to the ground without any gentlemanly manners. “B*tch, do you really need to say such nonsense? Since that’s the case, I’ll give you three choices as well. First, kneel down to Crystal and then divorce Wallace. Second, I’ll give you to a few men to have a good time before sending you to the slums to live as a prostitute. Third, I’ll inject you with drugs and let you live the life of an addict for the rest of your life.”

Sharon acted as if she didn’t hear him. She stood up and quickly walked toward the banquet hall.

“You still have three minutes. Are you sure you don’t want to choose the first option?” Theo-who was behind her-was still clamoring loudly, and the surrounding spectators burst into cacophonous laughter.

“If you don’t choose, I’ll make you regret it for the rest of your life...”

Sharon didn’t hear what Theo said after that. She walked to a hidden corner in the banquet hall and called John directly.

“Miss, isn’t today the Harris family’s banquet? Did something happen?”

“One hour-I’ll give you one hour. You should know the eldest son of the gambling king, Theo!”

“The gambling king, Howard, has a good relationship with the old master of our family. As for Theo, I don’t know much about him,” John answered truthfully.

According to his understanding, the York Group was very easy to get along with. However, something must’ve happened between his madam and the York family.

“I want all the companies under Theo to go bankrupt. It would be best if he could go to the police station for a while because of his crimes.”

“Roger that. If it’s just Theo, one hour is enough. Don’t worry, Miss.”

After Sharon made the arrangements with John, she called Tommy.

“CEO Sharon? I’m at the entrance of the Harris family’s banquet. Where are you?”

“We’ll talk about this later. I need you to make an official statement.”

In the car, Tommy frowned. After Sharon finished speaking, he took a deep breath and said, “CEO, I think you need to reconsider this matter. We have been working with the York Group for a long time, and our projects with them are very big. If we cut them all off now, it will affect our financial chain. Moreover, Howard didn’t overreact to us because of this matter. For the development of the company, I think you need to reconsider this matter.”

After hearing Tommy’s words, Sharon calmed down. When did I become so impulsive?

“It’s my fault; I’m a little muddle-headed. If you draft a statement like this, it probably means that we’re not involved with the casino and Theo and Crystal’s companies anymore. This way, Howard will find someone else to cooperate with.”

When Sharon returned to the banquet hall, she realized that many people had already arrived.

Before she could react, a loud slap landed on her face. In an instant, Sharon’s face was numb from the pain, and her mouth was filled with the taste of rust.

The onlookers, however, showed no sympathy at all. They were dressed luxuriously and had exquisite makeup on, holding champagne in their hands as they smirked.

“What did you say to Crystal just now?” Madam Harris was so angry that her whole body was trembling, and her eyes were filled with intense anger. Those who didn’t know would think that Sharon was her father’s murderer and not her granddaughter-in-law.

Sharon was a little dazed. She covered her face and straightened her back like a poplar tree in the wind. Her eyes were bright and filled with doubt and stubbornness as she clenched her fists and said in a trembling voice, “I didn’t say anything.”
