After Reborn, I Become a Billionaire -
Chapter 98 Humiliation
"Dad, I'm not doing this to tell on her. I know I should make peace with Hannah, I'm just kind of defending our family against the unfairness. When my elder sister came to work at that time, she was so despised by Uncle Miguel. Now, his daughter is coming to work and taking it for granted. I'm thinking the reason why Uncle Miguel and Hannah agreed to let me come to work yesterday must be Hannah has been asked to come to work long ago and they are afraid that people would gossip." Mary said cautiously.
Roger's rage was getting bigger while listening to her on the end of the phone. "Miguel has gone too far in bullying us! No matter what, I'm his elder brother but he relies on his position as the chairman and actually doesn't give me any respect. Mary, don't worry. I won't let them do that again!"
"Dad, will it put you in a difficult situation, after all, Uncle Miguel is in charge of Cooper Group, I'm afraid that he'll pick on you..." Mary sounded extremely worried, "I can stand it, it isn't a big matter to be slightly oppressed by Hannah."
"Isn't oppressing you equal to deliberately oppressing me? Don't worry, even though Miguel is the chairman, he wouldn't dare to do anything to me! If he dares to do anything to me, your grandmother will be there to back me up."
"Okay," Mary obediently answered.
"I have something to do so I'm hanging up. You focus on working and if there is anything, tell me immediately, don't let yourself be with the grievance." Roger admonished.
"Alright, I won't disturb your work then." Mary smiled sweetly.
After hanging up the phone, the smile on her face instantly disappeared.
Her mother was right!
The best way to coax a man was to look vulnerable and please him. She would use this tactic to achieve her aims on other men too, like Charles or even... Mary thought she was pretty clever with her little plan.
At the thought of this, her lips curled into an evil smile.
She swore to take everything Hannah wanted and usurp her position as the heir of the Cooper family!
On a street of Kensbury City, Roger who was sitting in a sedan hung up the phone. His face was darkened.
At this moment, other than him, there were also Esther and Jane in the car.
They were now going to the house of the Sawyer family to let Charles be responsible for Jane.
When Esther heard that it was Mary who called him, her expression obviously changed a bit. She said in a strange and unfriendly tone, "Your precious daughter has been bullied again?"
"What are you talking about, she's defending Jane against the unfairness!" Roger had got tricked good by Mary.
"What is she doing that for? She has replaced me. Her evil plan is accomplished!" Jane said disdainfully.
"Knock it off, with your current situation, what qualifications do you have to criticize Mary!" Roger's face darkened. Esther gave Jane a look.
Jane held back.
Once she became the young female owner of the Sawyer family, she would certainly get back at that girl by the name of Mary!
The sedan arrived at the Sawyer's, and Roger went in with his family members.
When he left the Cooper Manor yesterday, he contacted Lee and said that he would come today to talk about the two children's affairs. The Sawyers agreed soon. Probably, they wanted to bring this matter to an end. When they went in the house, Lee and Charles had been waiting for them in the living room while not showing a kindly look.
"Roger," Lee greeted him indifferently.
Roger looked a bit condescending. After being reminded by Hannah yesterday, he felt that he was the victim of this matter so he appeared a bit more justified.
"Regarding the matter of my daughter and Charles, you must give us an explanation." Roger said straight to the point.
"Explanation?" Lee sneered and his words were full of sarcasm, “What do you want me to explain to you?"
"Well, my daughter, a beautiful and innocent girl was ruined by your son, shouldn't you give my daughter an explanation?" Roger's face changed greatly when he heard Lee's words.
"My son's reputation has been ruined due to your daughter. I don't ask you for compensation but you have the nerve to ask me for an explanation? What, don't tell me that you still want to let Charles marry your daughter? Look at who you are, how dare you to request for this." Lee did not respect them.
"What are you talking about? How can you say that? You don't want to take responsibility for it and even criticize me? That's the Sawyers, huh? So irresponsible and devoid of upbringing! No wonder it has been in the lowest rank among the four greatest families all these years. With a family head like you, I don't think you will be still among the four families in another two years."
"Enough!" Lee angrily got up from the sofa and faced Roger coldly, "The reason why I let you come today is to solve this matter properly, I don't intend to quarrel with you!"
"How do you want to solve this?" Roger held back a breath and asked.
"Five million," Lee said, "Announce to the public that it was your daughter who seduced my son."
"Are you crazy? I'm not selling my daughter! With five million, you want to buy me off and even debase my daughter? Crazy!" Roger was so mad that he could not care whether his words were disrespectful anymore.
"You're flattered to get five million!" Lee's face was full of disdain, "She's just a collateral daughter, what price can she be worth!"
"You!" Roger was so livid at that moment that his blood boiled.
When Jane heard what they said, she certainly could not accept it.
"Uncle Lee, how can you say that? Charles and I are sincerely in love with each other. Aren't you embarrassing Charles when you belittle me like this?" Tears welled up in her eyes and she was with some delicacy.
"What nonsense are you saying, when am I in love with you?" Charles retorted.
"Charles..." Jane looked at him in disbelief.
'How could he say such words?' Jane felt rather aggrieved.
Back then, although Charles's words at the wedding were not pleasant to hear, she thought he had had no choice but to say those words. Now, everything had passed and since Hannah had already got married to Oscar, Charles should have accepted her. She just didn't understand why Charles uttered words like these.
At least he had not said so when they were making out.
"Don't call me. It makes me sick to hear your voice, not to mention to see your face! Why were you so shameless to seduce me? And you still have the nerve to ask me to take responsibility for you? You are daydreaming."
"Charles Sawyer!" Jane became so embarrassed, "What did you say on that day? You said you love me, you said you approached Hannah just for the benefit. You said once you get things you want, you'd be together with me, have you forgotten all these?"
"You must be imagining! Will I love a woman like you? Why don't you look in the mirror to see what you look like? Yes, I admit that I have no feelings for Hannah either and I was cheating on her to get assistance from the wealth of the Cooper family. But even so, I was willing to put in the effort and spend time on Hannah, not only because of her status but also because she is prettier than you. Where on earth do you get the confidence to think that I'll fall for you?"
Charles's sarcasm really shattered Jane. Finally, she wished that she could die together with Charles!
