Matthew commented lightly, “Dad, I can help to put in a good word for Demi. However, it may not work out. You also know that Crystal is the only female descendant of the Harrison Family in three generations, so she is the apple of their eyes. Yet, Demi slapped her on the face. There’s no way that they won’t hold her accountable. I can only try to keep Demi from being put behind bars and not get a permanent criminal record.”
Upon hearing that, Helen was overjoyed. “Matthew, we’re willing to do anything as long as Demi can be released. We’re willing to apologize or compensate them. I-I would do it even if I was asked to kneel down and kowtow to her!”
Sasha was furious and distressed. “Mom, you are already so old. Can you stop getting involved in this? Demi is not a kid anymore. She was the one who got herself in trouble so she should apologize to Crystal by herself!”
Helen sighed. “Sasha, Demi is still young so she still has a bright future ahead of her. She has been very stubborn since she was a child, so… she definitely won’t want to apologize to others. I’m already so old… I no longer care about my pride. If I can do it in her stead, why should I let her apologize and embarrass herself?”
Sasha’s tears welled up.
Although Helen was a bitter and sordid woman, she was in fact a good mother.
She only wanted the best for Demi and Sasha.
She had dreams of becoming the wife of a wealthy man and she did not think things through before doing something, often pressuring Sasha for money.
However, these were all normal. Every human in this world was vain after all.
Early the next morning, James and the others went to the law firm again and transferred all the shares back to Matthew.
Between those few days, they had gone to the law firm countless times.
This time, James gave up completely, deciding to never try to snatch away this construction company again.
After Matthew retrieved the shares, he called the Jackson Family, Jefford and the others.
Everyone was pressuring James previously and forced him to leave the construction company.
Now that their goal had been achieved, everything was back to normal and the construction company operated as usual.
Moreover, in the past two days, the project in the villa area had finally restarted.
Tiger left Wellness Herbary and went directly to the villa area to start the follow-up work for this project.
As for Julian, he still had to work in Wellness Herbary for a while as he had to help Ed get familiar with the ins and outs of the herbary.
It was only when Ed could work independently that Julian would enter the construction company, as this was the company that truly belonged to them.
As for Demi, she was indeed in trouble.
Although Mr. Harrison treated Matthew well, it was his granddaughter who was slapped this time.
Moreover, his granddaughter did nothing to deserve that slap.
Under such circumstances, how could Mr. Harrison just let Demi go?
Matthew then went to have a talk with Mr. Harrison and Crystal. After discussing it for a while, Crystal agreed to solve the matter privately.
However, the premise was that Demi had to apologize to her.
Matthew didn’t dare to make the decision by himself as he knew the Cunningham Family very well.
If he agreed to this matter, Demi would definitely say that he was the one who agreed, not her. Thus, she wouldn’t apologize.
Therefore, he had to make it clear to the Cunningham Family that they would have to make the decision on whether to agree or disagree to Crystal’s request. Then, Demi would have no choice at that time.
James and Helen were overjoyed after hearing Matthew’s words.
“Oh, this… this is really great! I thought it would be difficult to solve this matter, but surprisingly she just asked for an apology,” Helen said emotionally.
However, Sasha muttered nonchalantly, “Mom, do you really think it’s that simple? This time, Crystal didn’t pursue this matter because Matthew persuaded them. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have let Demi off the hook so easily!”
