Chapter 85: Chapter 85: The Overbearing Snowden Jones!

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The moment Snowden Jones appeared, a sudden gloom overcame Sherry Jones, her mood that had just improved plummeted instantaneously.

“Oh, so Auntie can come, but I can’t?” Snowden Jones said belligerently. Even though she was aware that she had come to apologize to White Mitchell and Sherry Jones, she was still reluctant to back down.

At this moment, Mori Jones gave her a cold, hard stare and then opened her mouth indifferently, “Snowden! Don’t forget your task!”

“You!” Snowden Jones was rendered speechless, her face turning unusually ugly.

“Auntie, what’s going on?” Sherry Jones said in stupefaction, she had never seen Snowden Jones put up such a subdued front before.

Normally based on her character, she wouldn’t necessarily regard Mori Jones highly.

Even more unexpectedly, Mori Jones had rebuked her yet she had no retort to it, which was quite thought-provoking.

“She’s here to apologize to you and White on behalf of our grandmother.” Mori Jones explained, then turned around and ordered, “Hurry up!”

With smothering resentment, Snowden Jones’s face darkened to the extreme. She said reluctantly, “I’m sorry.”

Even though she verbally apologized, there was hardly any sincerity on her face. She didn’t look like she was here to apologize, instead as if she was here to stir up trouble.

In fact, it would be better to say that she apologized because she had no other options.

At this moment, White Mitchell’s voice came from inside the room, wearing a playful tone, “When you apologize, you should have the right attitude. If it’s such a forced apology, we can’t accept it. Just get lost.”

Whoosh!

Hearing these words, Snowden Jones’s rage flared up instantly.

Being forced by the old lady to apologize was already making her feel very annoyed, now she had to endure White Mitchell’s arrogance?

This was something Snowden Jones could not tolerate. She retorted, “What do you mean by this? I’m here representing the Jones Family to apologize to you! Don’t think you can just throw your weight around here because grandma is momentarily confused and believes in Auntie’s lies. If it weren’t for grandma forcing me here, I wouldn’t care to come to this crappy place.

Don’t push your luck, or one day, I assure you there will be consequences!”

The moment Mori Jones heard this, her face chilled down, she reprimanded, “Snowden Jones! Have you lost your mind? Have you forgotten what our grandmother told you!?”

Snowden Jones gnashed her teeth ferociously: “Enough with the lectures, you have no right to order me around! As of today, I’ve apologized. Whether or not it will be accepted, that is their business.”

“Moreover, I didn’t even hope that they would accept it. Do you really think I would be like grandma and believe your bullshit?

You and they are nothing more than partners in crime, deliberately trying to embarrass me, let me tell you this, if you think I, Snowden Jones, will bow down to them in this lifetime, it won’t happen unless I’m dead!”

After Snowden Jones finished her tirade, she stood defiantly in place, looking utterly furious.

Tap, tap, tap…

At this moment, the room and the corridor were filled with silence, leaving only the sound of White Mitchell’s footsteps.

White Mitchell, looking composed, slowly walked towards Snowden Jones, every step seeming to radiate a powerful aura.

The sound of his footsteps, as if capable of inducing people’s heartbeats, made everyone’s hearts tremble with every echo.

Snowden Jones, who had been full of arrogance, had not enjoyed her triumph for long when her face was involuntarily cloaked with a look of fear.

White Mitchell could really fight, this is something she had learned from a previous experience.

Which is why at this moment, she instinctively covered her face, warning in a panic, “What are you trying to do? I’m warning you, don’t mess with me! There are cameras here, if you hit me, you won’t get away with it!”

No matter how much she had boasted earlier, at this moment she was just as humble.

Snowden Jones felt as if her heart was about to leap out of her chest, truly scared that White Mitchell might strike her. Thus, not only did she shield her face, but she involuntarily took steps back.

At this moment, her whole body seemed out of control, trembling violently as she was in a state of extreme panic.

She was so disorientated that she didn’t even know where to place her hands.

“Bro, don’t stoop to her level.” Seeing Snowden’s panicked state, Sherry Jones quickly caught White’s attention, fearing he might lash out.

White Mitchell gave Sherry a gentle smile, then playfully asked, “Did I ever say I was going to hit her?”

Sherry, hearing this, couldn’t help but laugh at the sight of Snowden’s skittishness.

“Bro, you are being mean!” Sherry covered her mouth and retorted jokingly.

White Mitchell laughed, then looked down at Snowden with indifference, saying, “Get lost! When you are ready to be sincere, come back and kneel before me.”

“You!”

Snowden felt humiliated, blushing with both anger and embarrassment. If it weren’t for the fact that she knew she was no match for him, she truly wanted to chew White up and spit him out.

“Just you wait! I’ll see how long you can stay smug!” Furious, Snowden couldn’t bear to stay in White’s presence. She stormed out of the hotel in a huff.

This….

Mori Jones, watching all this, wore an expression of helplessness. She apologized to White and Sherry remorsefully, “White, Sherry, I’m sorry. I didn’t expect such a disaster.”

“It’s not your fault, come in and have a seat,” Sherry ushered Mori into the room.

Having booked a suite, they had access to a small living room, which proved convenient for conversation.

However, as soon as Mori sat down, Sherry noticed that her gaze seemed off, revealing that she was subtly studying White.

Coming to think of Snowden’s strange behavior earlier, Sherry couldn’t help but ask, “What on earth is going on?”

“You don’t know?” Mori came to her senses, glanced at Sherry puzzledly, then looked at White surreptitiously.

Could it be that he had kept Sherry in the dark?

Or was her assumption wrong, and it was merely a string of good luck?

Mori shook her head, soon brushing off her second thought, convinced that White was indeed behind everything.

Then, she told Sherry all about what had happened in the Jones Family that day.

As White listened from the side, his face remained expressionless, which strengthened Mori’s assumption.

After hearing what had happened, Sherry gave a puzzled look at White and asked him with mock seriousness, “Bro, did you arrange all this?”

“Me?” White pointed to himself, then joked, “Yeah, didn’t I arrange it all? Who else would come to your rescue?”

At this, Sherry burst out laughing, looking at White’s nonchalant expression, and rebuked him, “I’d have to be a fool to believe you! Don’t brag when we’re in such a serious situation.”

White shrugged helplessly, thinking to himself that he wasn’t lying. However, Sherry didn’t believe him.

Tell the truth, even though White knew that Sherry didn’t believe him, he sensed that Mori had some doubts.

Regardless, it wasn’t important. Even if she were to investigate, she wouldn’t find any substantial evidence.

Indeed, Mori looked at White with furrowed brows and asked seriously, “Assuming, and I say assuming, that you were behind all this.

“Then, what would the Jones Family need to do for you to forgive them? Or rather, what would make you spare the Jones Family?”

Upon hearing this question, Sherry’s curiosity was piqued, and she eagerly looked at White, “Bro, what would you do?”
