“You’re still talking back to me?”

“Grandma… No, Madam Harris, it’s my fault. Don’t blame Sharon; it’s all my fault.” Crystal clenched her fingers slightly and pursed her pink lips. Her delicate little face instantly turned pale, and her wet doe eyes were filled with grievance and unwillingness. She looked very lovable.

When Madam Harris heard this, she became angry again. She then splashed the champagne in her hand on Sharon’s face and slammed the glass on the ground, pushing her into the pile of glass shards.

In such a public setting, Madam Harris didn’t show any mercy and slapped her granddaughter-in-law for the sake of the York family’s daughter!

Sharon pressed her hand on the glass shards, and blood oozed out. She couldn’t help but smile, but her eyes turned red.

Her heart was filled with countless grievances. She had married into the Harris family for five years, but she couldn’t even compare to Crystal, who had just returned to the country for half a year. Even though her family background wasn’t as good as Crystal’s, she had always been respectful toward her in-laws and had always treated Madam Harris well.

In the beginning, Sharon really foolishly thought that Crystal was just Wallace’s playmate and even treated her as her good sister. However, she never thought that Crystal had been scheming behind her back, pretending to comfort her after getting her into trouble, all just to put on a show in front of Wallace.

She had explained it to June and Wallace, but all she got in return was their mockery and distrust. Sharon still remembered her husband asking her with a frown, “Sharon, how can you be so dark?”

June, on the other hand, mocked her even more absurdly. “I didn’t expect you to be the same as your mother, such a despicable person! Crystal is such a good child, yet you slandered her behind her back and said bad things about her. No wonder you are in such a situation now. This is the punishment from heaven—you deserve it!”

That’s right. What else could she say after encountering such a situation?

Hence, Sharon stopped explaining and let them talk nonsense. However, they seemed to have misunderstood. Her silence didn’t mean that she was weak and easily bullied!

“Let me tell you, your mother forced you into our family. A pheasant like you who wants to climb up the social ladder after losing your parents won’t become a phoenix even if you enter our family!” Madam Harris pointed at Sharon’s face and scolded her.

Sharon finally stood up. Her gaze was cold as if these things only happened to strangers.

“Apologize to Crystal immediately!” Madam Harris was about to explode in anger. Does this b*tch think that she hasn’t embarrassed herself enough today? I regret not killing her when they got married so that she wouldn’t embarrass the Harris family today.

“Sharon, apologize to Crystal immediately! No matter what, she’s still our guest. You should apologize for speaking rudely to her!” June—who had rushed over upon hearing the commotion—had no idea what was going on. She hurriedly hugged Crystal and comforted her. Then, she glared at Sharon with a sharp and cold gaze as if she was threatening her.

Sharon didn’t look at anyone around her. Her figure was especially thin and slender at this moment, but her back remained straight as if nobody could make her lower her head and bend down.

She didn’t say anything today, but she was humiliated by the Harris family in front of everyone. If she really said anything to Crystal today, she might’ve been cut into pieces by now.

“If you don’t apologize today, our Harris family won’t have a granddaughter-in-law like you.” Madam Harris raised her hand again. The current Sharon is really capable; she actually dares to challenge my authority as the family head and disobey me.

A trace of smugness flashed across Crystal’s eyes. It’s indeed as Theo said. If I add fuel to the fire now, Sharon won’t be able to stay in the Harris family anymore.

Therefore, she specially ran to Madam Harris and gave her the gift she had prepared. However, she told the latter that Sharon didn’t want her to get too close to the Harris family because it would seriously disturb their lives, especially Wallace’s. She told her not to covet a married man, so she wanted her to leave as soon as she delivered the gift.

Everyone thought that Sharon would leave the scene like this, but they didn’t expect her to just walk toward her seat, along with her bleeding hand and wine-stained evening gown.

Behind her was the York siblings’ table.

Theo gave her a sinister smile. “What do you think? Do you still think I should apologize to your dead mother?”

Sharon glanced at the time. There are still 18 minutes left.

Just as Theo was feeling smug, his phone suddenly rang.

Howard’s voice came through the phone. “You useless thing! How did I give birth to a son like you? Who did you offend outside? What trouble did you get yourself into? All your company’s funds have been cut off, and they are already going bankrupt. Also, the people you bribed in the government have been dug out.. What are you doing?”
