"Grace, I have no choice. I can't handle Sunny Group on my own. I can't allow our father's company to crumble so easily." Marry Smith explained seriously.
Grace Smith gave a cold glance. "Heinz Jones had already expected that you would come to me about this." Grace Smith said.
Marry Smith was surprised and asked, "What?"
Grace stared at her shocked eyes and said slowly, 'Tve expected this too."
"You expected me to come to you?" Marry Smith asked, she couldn't believe it at all.
"In the past, I didn't think that you would be so vile and manipulative. I collected my thoughts these five years when we were apart. Sister, it seems like I have to get to know you all over again," Grace Smith said.
"Grace," Marry Smith looked at her blankly and said, "I'm making my last plea and giving it one last try. Would you not feel sorry for Dad if you just sit back and do nothing for his company?"
"You are in charge of Sunny Group. What does it have to do with me?" Grace Smith retorted coldly. "No matter how bad it becomes, it has nothing to do with me."
"Do you have to draw such a clear line?" Marry Smith asked, she gritted her teeth and her eyes were red.
Grace Smith's lips twisted in a mirthless smile.
Did Marry think that she was still the naive little girl before?
Grace glanced at her coldly and said in a low voice, "It's always better to make things clear. Otherwise, I may even need to give thanks when I am the one who has been wronged! It has happened once, and I am not so silly to let it happen again."
Marry Smith was silent.
"It's impossible to raise the percentage. Don't waste your time. The twenty-five percent has been given to you by Jones Estate. It will be zero if you are greedy." Grace Smith continued.
Marry Smith was stunned, and there was stubbornness in her eyes. "Grace, is there really no way?"
"Yes," Grace said bluntly.
Marry Smith was humiliated. "Not even if you speak on my behalf?"
"I'm a nobody to Heinz Jones. I am a helpless single mother, how can I persuade him? Even if I could, why should I help you? I'm not stupid."
Marry Smith was speechless all of a sudden.
"Please go now." Grace Smith said. After finishing her words, she turned around and entered her house.
She was not staying any longer.
Marry Smith did not stop her.
Grace Smith closed the door and leaned against it. She felt a sharp pain in her heart, and she was extremely depressed.
She realized that her sister was really manipulative. Marry Smith put her own interests above everything else, she was extremely selfish.
She would fight for everything that was beneficial for her and did not care at all about others.
By hook or crook indeed.
Grace Smith took a deep breath.
"Mommy, this battle seems to be very difficult for you." Gary Smith said, he walked over carefully with a glass of water.
Grace Smith was extremely tired, but when she heard her son's words and looked at the water he brought over, she couldn't help feeling warm.
