Her Revenge Was His Regret (Shirley and Gilbert) novel Chapter 398

They released the statement on the exact day Sherry arrived in Sencia City for the banquet.

Joseph looked exhausted, his eyes hollow.

"I'm sorry we've wasted everyone's attention. I also apologize on behalf of my wife.

"I was too proud to admit she came from a simple background, with little education. That's why she didn't know her way around a company office.

"She's just a tired housewife raising five children. I failed to notice how stressed she was. That's my fault.

"I don't know if this will satisfy Sherry. If it will help her let go of her anger, she can hit me. I'm her father, I'll take it.

"After all, Claire and Teresa are both women of the family. I'm a man, so I'll carry this. Don't worry. I keep my word. I'll even take a beating live online if that's what she wants."

His tone was painfully sincere.

It was as if Sherry would actually hit him.

The public, who had been furious moments before, suddenly fell silent.

No one had expected it to escalate this far.

[I never thought it would go this far. We wrecked their company...]

[You internet trolls don't know the whole story! You harassed them until their business collapsed. Are you happy now?]

[Don't give us that. They still admitted they targeted Sherry! Everything she went through was real!]

[Sure, but you guys showed up at their building and pushed them into bankruptcy! Arguing online is one thing, but offline harassment is too far.]

[The Campbells are right. They lost everything. Are you still going to drag this on? Want them to die next?]

[Both sides messed up. You can't blame only one. They sacrificed their whole family. If Sherry just speaks up, this can end. They're still family.]

[Yeah! If she just says something, we can all move on. Why is she staying quiet?!]
