The Heiress Strikes Back

389 Forced to Return Home

Sharon was already very tired after the ordeal. She ignored Zenith and Peter’s invitation and returned to the ward. She didn’t expect it to be already so late.

However, just as she pushed the door open, she saw June sitting there with a grave expression, making Sharon wonder what had happened.

“Yo, we’re back? Sharon! Where have you been for so long? Do you still have me as your mother in your eyes? Do you still recognize this family as yours?”

Before Sharon could speak, Wallace stood up first. “Mom, if you’re just here to teach Sharon a lesson, you can stop talking.”

Seeing Wallace’s dark expression, June didn’t continue.

Sharon sat by the bed and looked at the few people in the room. She asked subconsciously, “What happened? Why is everyone here?”

Xenon looked at Sharon. “There was such a big news in New York today, don’t you know? Besides, this matter has something to do with you!”

“What’s the matter?” Sharon was a little puzzled.

“Christian’s family suddenly opened up the investment channel and many small companies also joined in. Furthermore, the bank did not plan to lend money to the Kent family anymore. As if they had agreed with one another on it, the creditors of Christian’s family came looking for them directly. Therefore, the Kent family is almost struggling now and they are living quite a tragic life... His daughter seems to want to seek help and posted the video of the scene on the Internet. However, I don’t know if it was hacked or edited, but there are only clips of you saving someone in the video.”

Sharon pretended to be surprised. “I didn’t expect Sullivan to be so ruthless this time. The Kent family is really in trouble.”

“It’s fate. The Kent family used to be a dominating figure in the construction materials industry in New York. Who knew that now... You have to be careful of this Sullivan. If he can do this to his old customer today, he might do the same to you in the future.”

“He offended a friend of Sullivan’s chairman, that’s why Director Charlotte gave them a small punishment.” Wallace did not pity the Kent family at all and was confident that he would never encounter such a thing.

June’s eyes darted around before she said kindly, “That is precisely the reason why it’s not safe to start your own business. If you’re not careful, you’ll go bankrupt. You might even lose your life!”

After saying that, June hugged Wallace affectionately and comforted him in a very firm tone, “So, you shouldn’t be busy working for your company to go public. Those are all filled with invisible hidden risks. If you really want to make a name for yourself, go back to the Harris family. Your grandmother has already said that you will definitely be the director if you go back now. When the time comes, you will have an annual salary of ten million and a good reputation. Isn’t that better than starting your own business?”

“Mom, did you take some bewitching medicine? Do you really think that my life will be better if I go back? Besides, the Harris Corporation is already done for. They only want me to go back because they want to use my name to get some sponsorship. Can’t you understand?” Wallace looked at June in confusion. Why did his mother always want to rely on others?

“That’s an annual salary of ten million! Besides, you’re the president now. If you really save the Harris Corporation, won’t you be the chairman in the future? Besides, you started your own business. It’s fine if you succeed in getting listed, but what if you fail? I’ll starve with you.”

Upon hearing June’s anxious retort, Wallace sighed and said lightly, “Mom, stop persuading me. I won’t go back. Even if I really lose money, I won’t go back to the Harris family.”

June was almost about to faint from anger because of her son. She looked at herself and turned to scold Sharon. “Look at you. If it weren’t for you, would Wallace have worked so hard? What’s the use if you don’t have money now? How much do you earn in a month just by having a vixen’s face! The Harris family has really sinned. How can we have a daughter-in-law like you!”

“Alright, since you think that you’ve committed a sin, you can move out of the mansion and go straight back to the old mansion. Sharon and I will stay at home.” Wallace had also seen through his mother’s hypocritical side.

June pinched her thigh ruthlessly when no one was looking. Then, tears instantly flowed down her face. She said in a wronged and helpless tone, “The Harris family is about to be finished now. If the Harris family really can’t make it, think about how your father and I will survive in the future. Your grandmother even said that she would give us more dividends. If you don’t go back, we have nothing!”
