Chapter 69 A Shameless Family
The Jenningses turned even paler. The thing they had feared most was happening.
Even though the thirty million was borrowed by Heather, they didn’t dare to delay the return of that debt.
The money belonged to the chairman of Four Seas Corporation, after all.
He was the man who had bought over fifty–one percent of the Four Seas Corporation’s shares. Compared to this man, the Jenningses were but á tiny ant. So, naturally, they had to return the debt on time.
“Mr. Sawyer, didn’t we agree to pay back the debt one year later?” Demi asked timidly.
“Yes. On behalf of Heather Jennings, our chairman agreed to borrow you the money without interest for a year.”
At this, Jack’s expression darkened. “However, you burned your bridges and heartlessly took away Ms. Jennings‘ shares. Our chairman was so angry that he demanded you all to return the money today.”
What?
Because of Heather?
The Jenningses were seriously starting to regret everything they’d done today.
“Heather, I’m sorry for everything we did to you today. I’ll give you all your shares back, so please call the chairman and beg him to give us more time!” Demi was a rather decisive person.
She hurriedly apologized to her granddaughter.
There was no other way. Apart from Heather, no one else could help the Jenningses now.
“But Granny, those are my shares!” Jacob said unhappily. fifteen percent of shares meant a whole lot of benefits for him every year.
Slap!
Demi turned and slapped Jacob across the face as she yelled, “If it weren’t for you two manipulating me with your words yesterday, we wouldn’t have made such a mistake in the first place! If you don’t keep your mouth shut, I’ll take back all of your shares!”
Jacob was feeling extremely embarrassed that he had gotten slapped in front of everybody, but more than that, he was furious.
When he saw Demi’s sharp glare, however, he stayed quiet and moved aside unwillingly.
“I’ve never even seen the man. How do you expect me to beg him for anything?” Heather scoffed.
She was beyond disappointed in the Jenningses. She couldn’t care less if Demi returned all her family’s shares to them.
So what if Granny said that she’ll return my family’s shares? It is still up to her whether the shares will be taken back or not in the future.
After what had happened today, Heather would never fall so easily for Demi’s promises again.

She resented the fact that she was foolish enough to give everything for her family, only to get looked down upon and bullied by them in return.
Since that was the case, she felt that she no longer need to help the Jennings family any further.
once,
“Heather, I’m sorry. I’m really sorry for making such a stupid mistake. Please, forgive me this alright? Once you settle this, not only will I return your shares, but I’ll also even add on another ten percent!” Demi suppressed the fury she felt and started begging her granddaughter.
Seeing that it was the first time Demi had begged so desperately. Heather’s heart softened immediately.
