Chapter 331: Chapter 331 – The Jones Family’s Regret?
Sayon, Jones Family.
The members of the Jones Family, who didn’t yet know the bidding result, had a look of resentment on their faces when they returned from the bidding assembly.
They never could have imagined that Sherry Jones had completely severed the ties with the Jones Group. The Jones Group had already become an empty shell, in name only.
The more Amanda thought about it, the more she resented it, speaking incessantly, “Mother, you see it now, right? That damned Sherry must have been plotting for a long time, intending to empty our Jones Group.
Now her plot has succeeded. After using the Jones Group, she plans to kick us aside.
There is no such cheapness in this world. We must hire a lawyer to sue her. We can’t let her get away with this!”
Upon hearing this, Will Jones on the side gave a cold chuckle, then said in a vicious tone, “Hmph! Even if we don’t sue her, she won’t be able to get far.
Now I guess the bidding result is out. She and that bastard White Mitchell must be in hiding now.

Alan Austin and his lot will never let White Mitchell off the hook. However, we didn’t expect that bastard White to give us one last blow before his death. It’s really bad luck!”
At the time when the members of the Jones Family were filled with anger, Snowden Jones, who had initially moved into the Bright Family Residence, showed up in the Jones Family with a panicked expression.
“Snowden? Why are you back? What’s wrong with your face?” Seeing Snowden Jones’s arrival, the Jones Family’s anger slightly eased.
Now that the Jones Group was left with nothing, they were hoping that Snowden could persuade the members of the Bright Family to lend a hand.
Seeing the expressions on the faces of the Jones Family members, Snowden Jones frowned and exclaimed, “Grandma, mom, and dad, don’t you know yet? Haven’t you watched the news? The bidding result for the Nezzi new city is out!”
Upon hearing this, the faces of the Jones Family members instantly became gloomy.
Amanda said impatiently, “We’ve known the bidding result for a long time, Alan Austin told us earlier that David Herb had agreed to give him Nezzi New City.
There’s nothing worth seeing.”
Huh?
Snowden Jones was startled, then quickly regained her composure. Without further explanation, she turned on the television in the living room.
On the television, Sayoan TV was reporting on the Nezzi New City project.
The large headline displayed: Nezzi New City General Contractor–Sherry Jones!
What?!
The moment they saw the news, the faces of the Jones Family members froze instantly, a storm of shock stirred in their hearts, and their breaths became rapid.
What’s going on? What’s happening? Isn’t Alan Austin the winning bidder, not Sherry Jones?
Didn’t Alan Austin confidently declare that David Herb had personally promised him to hand over the Nezzi New City project to their Imperial Group?
Why is Sherry Jones now the winning bidder?
This…
All members of the Jones family were taken aback, their minds couldn’t keep up, and soon their faces lit up in amazement.
At this time, Snowden Jones anxiously said, “Grandma, Mom, Dad, say something, how did Sherry become the general contractor of Nezzi New City?
Didn’t you attend the bidding assembly today?
What actually happened?”
What had happened?
If you ask me, who am I supposed to ask?
The members of the Jones Family looked at each other in dismay, their faces full of shock.
Eventually, it was Old Madam Jones who first recovered, promptly instructing, “Quick, prepare the car, prepare it quickly!
Let’s go to Sherry’s home. Quick, we must quickly go to Sherry’s home. Even if our entire family has to kneel down before Sherry today, we have to obtain her forgiveness.
Hurry up, don’t just stand there, yes, bring Logan’s funerary urn too, hurry, hurry!!!”
Having said that, Old Madam Jones picked up her cane and walked briskly towards the door, her face full of anxiety.
At this moment, Will Jones and his wife also quickly came to their senses.
Yes, now that Sherry Jones won the bid, she will become the most prestigious person in Sayon, apart from David Herb.
If not now, then when should they flatter her?
After all, Sherry Jones is a member of their Jones Family. Nothing else needs to be said, with Sherry Jones’s current reputation and status, even the oil dripping from her fingers would be enough to make the Jones Family plenty rich.
Understanding this, Will Jones hurried out of the villa in three steps rather than two, quickly rushing to his car.
Amanda, who was waiting close by, couldn’t wait to take action. She ran into her room to prepare an apology gift and even took Logan Jones’ urn with her.
Snowden Jones saw the hasty actions of the Jones family members. Her pretty face held a hint of unwillingness but she understood this wasn’t the time to be temperamental. Pleasing Sherry Jones was paramount.
Thus, although Snowden had some animosity towards Sherry in her heart, she obediently followed the others, heading straight to Sherry’s residence.
Sayon, Splendid Sayon Neighborhood.
Although she had promised White Mitchell she would be home early, following her victory celebration, Sherry Jones had a bit too much drink and went straight to sleep when she got home.
White Mitchell picked up her phone, switched it to silent mode, but just as he was about to put it down, he noticed a call from Old Madam Jones.
The moment he saw the call, a cold, indifferent smile appeared on White’s face.
When Old Madam Jones would call at this time, needless to say, he already knew their motives.
He estimated that they were already on their way.
To avoid disturbing Sherry, White Mitchell shut the bedroom door behind him, left the room, and went outside the neighborhood premises.
He hadn’t been there long when he spotted Will’s car parked near the neighborhood entrance.
The moment the Jones family saw White Mitchell, an odd look crossed their faces; obviously, they had not expected him to be there.
Moreover, judging by his expression, he appeared to be waiting for them.
The Jones family looked at each other at this point. In the end, it was Old Madam Jones who swallowed her pride and softly said, “White, were you waiting for us?
Look at you, we’re all family, you shouldn’t be so formal. It’s late and the weather is chilly. The night fog isn’t good for your health.
Enough of that, let’s go up.”
Having said this, Old Madam Jones proceeded to walk in, only to be stopped when she looked up to see White Mitchell still standing immobile at the entrance, showing no intent to let them in.
This caused Old Madam Jones’s face to drop somewhat. An embarrassed look crossed her face, but for the sake of attaching themselves to Sherry, she still managed to keep her smile.
Unfortunately, White remained unmoved by their attempts to appease him.
The atmosphere tense, the Jones family surveyed each other, each face painted with embarrassment.
At this point, White, who hadn’t spoken up until now, slowly said with a cold smile, “I told you that in this world, there is no remedy for regret. So, now you regret it?”
These words from White were like a slap in the face to the Jones family, resounding clearly.
But for the sake of the Jones family, Old Madam Jones still put on a smiling face and said, “White, we didn’t want to do what we did before. It was Alan Austin and his people who forced us.
Please forgive us this one time, for the many years the Jones family raised you. Look, we even brought your foster father’s ashes.
If Logan were still here, he would have wanted us to live harmoniously. Surely you don’t want to deny your foster father peace in the afterlife?”
Hearing this, White’s expression grew even colder.
The next moment, he snatched Logan’s urn from them and sternly said, “If it weren’t for my foster father, do you think you Jones family members would still be alive to stand before me today?
I know why you’re here today and what you hope to achieve. I can give you the opportunity.
Three days from now, on my foster father’s death anniversary, I expect each of you to kneel in front of his grave and confess all the wrong you’ve done to Sherry Jones, repent for your sins.
Otherwise, I won’t hesitate to make the Jones Family disappear from Sayon altogether.”
Kneel?
Repent?
Or the Jones family will disappear?
Hearing these words, Amanda lost her temper and snapped, “What do you mean by that, White Mitchell? We’re here to see Sherry Jones, not you.
Sherry hasn’t said anything yet. What gives you the right to be so bossy? You’re just riding on Sherry Jones’ coattails. Without her, you’re nothing.
I have yet to see a freeloader as shameless as you! Move aside, we want to see Sherry. This is a family matter. I don’t believe that Sherry would be as heartless as you.”
Just then, Sherry Jones’ voice came from behind White Mitchell, filled with surprise and disgust, “Grandma? What are you all doing here?”
