Helen hurriedly laughed and said, “Yes, this is all thanks to Matthew. Matthew, let me thank you on behalf of Demi!”
Matthew waved his hand. “You’re welcome, Mom. I’m just conveying what the Harrison Family told me. It’s up to you guys whether to accept their request.”
“Of course we agree,” Helen hurriedly murmured. “I’m agreeing in Demi’s stead. We agree!”
Matthew nodded. Since Helen agreed, he could then let the Harrison Family know their answer.
That morning, Helen and the others immediately went to fetch Demi back the moment they heard that the Harrison Family agreed to reconcile. After being locked in jail for a day, Demi almost had a mental breakdown. The first thing she did after she was picked up was to shout furiously, “What the hell are you guys doing? I was in jail for one whole day. Didn’t you guys even think of saving me? Am I not important at all? Do you know how much I suffered every minute that I was in jail?”
They were dumbfounded upon hearing her complaint. With a cold expression, Sasha said furiously, “Demi, do you really think that we don’t want to save you? For your sake, Mom almost had to kowtow to the Harrison Family, but even then they didn’t agree to reconcile. What could we have done?”
Unconvinced, Demi said, “Why didn’t you guys think of other ways when they refused to reconcile? You could use your connections or give them money to save me. Sasha, you are also the chairman of a company now; can’t you even do such a simple thing? All I did was just slap her. How big of a deal can it be?”
Hearing that, even James was annoyed. “How big of a deal can it be? The Harrison Family has already asked everyone to stop cooperating with the Cunningham Family! Everyone Liam knows refused to invest in the villa area project and our company’s customers are all going to terminate their contract with us! Do you still think that it isn’t a big deal?”
Demi was dumbfounded. Scratching her head, she muttered, “Is it… Is it really that serious? I j-just slapped her lightly… They are obviously overreacting!”
Irritated by Demi’s words, Sasha countered furiously, “Bullsh*t! If someone slapped you now, you would have made a huge fuss over it! Regardless of whether they overreacted, it’s your fault for slapping Crystal! What’s wrong with them holding you accountable?”
Demi fell silent for a while. Initially, she thought that this was just a simple matter and didn’t expect it to turn into such a big deal. Now, she did not dare to continue being so bratty and stubborn anymore.
Helen hurried over and said, “Alright, that’s enough now. Fortunately, Demi was released. Demi, please don’t be angry. Come on; you must be starving. I’ll make you something delicious. You should take a bath and have a good meal. This matter is over now.”
“What do you mean that this incident is over?” Sasha repeated furiously. “Mom, have you forgotten that Demi has to apologize to Crystal?”
Demi was stunned. “Apologize? What are you talking about?”
Helen said awkwardly, “Oh right—you have to apologize. Demi, after you clean up and have something to eat, you need to apologize to Miss Harrison. Only then will this matter be over!”
Demi’s eyes widened in disbelief. “You want me to go and apologize to Crystal? Why should I? I have been imprisoned for a day, yet I still have to apologize to her? Doesn’t that mean that I was jailed in vain? Forget it; it will never happen!”
Helen panicked. “Demi, stop being stubborn. They only agreed to reconcile because we promised them you’d apologize. If you don’t want to apologize, then… Won’t we have to go back on our word?”
