You Hit My Heart
Chapter 161

Jacqueline felt that the atmosphere was not right when she steppedinto the house.

When she walked into the living room and saw Shelly's eyes as red andswollen as walnuts, she quickly asked, "What, what happened?" Herdaughter, whom she had loved since she was little, was crying like this,so she was naturally distressed.

Shelly sobbed while giving a short account of what happened.

After hearing this, Jacqueline was sad and angry and scolded, "You arereally stupid. Even if you don't like Joyce, you can't sacrifice theinterests of the group! You didn't even ask me about such a big matter!I certainly won't allow you to do such a stupid thing either."

"Auntie, it has been announced on the company forum that the designthat Shelly took was a fake one, and this time it didn't affect the group'sinterests.” Charlotte had been present later, she was clear about thewhole thing, and later she saw Casey's affirmation posted on thecompany forum.

"Fortunately, you didn't cause big trouble. If there were seriousconsequences, those people could impeach me in the board meeting,do you know that? I don't have many shares, and if I am impeached bythe shareholders, there will be no place for me in the group.”Jacqueline frowned and said, "Next time, don't do such a stupid thing.No, there won't be a next time!"

“I called Luther before I got back and he was going to Mufron on abusiness trip for a few days. It's a good thing he's not going back to theWarner family these days. If he told Stephanie, it would be a hugedisadvantage for us. You should stay home these days until thingssettle down.” Jacqueline said with resentment.

"Grandma is biased ... Urgh..." Shelly cried out again.

"Bear with me. Pray that your grandmother doesn't know about this.Didn't you hear what Mr. Baldwin said last time? Until the last moment,your grandmother is allowed to amend the will. Aren't you afraid thatyou will be deprived of your share?" Jacqueline nudged Shelly.

"Right, Mom, what about it? I don't want to lose my shares! I've beenfired from the project team today, I must get my shares to join the boardof directors later!" Shelly wiped a handful of tears from her eyes andstarted to get anxious. She had gotten into trouble disregarding all theconsequences.

"How do I know she won't know!" Jacqueline said, "That's why I sayyou should think twice before you do anything! What time is it now,can't you just wait? How many days does your grandmother have tolive? Can't wait a few days?"

Shelly shouted, "Grandma looks even better lately! I just went to visither the day before yesterday!"

"What?" Jacqueline was surprised, "Could it be the new Mufronimmune cell targeting drug that the doctor finally prescribed? If that'sthe case, the old lady could live another year and a half. Damn, I wastold to prepare for the funeral and then the new drug took effect. Theold woman is not going to die I am afraid.” Jacqueline muttered in a lowvoice, thinking to herself that this was not a good sign.

Geez, there was just not an end to the whole thing. How long did shehave to stay up before she got on the board!

Mother and daughter conversed for a long while before theyremembered that they were not the only two in the living room.Charlotte was still around.

The two of them dared to discuss the matter of their own propertyinheritance and shares in front of an outsider.

Jacqueline looked awkwardly at Charlotte, "Charlotte, we justactually...”

"Auntie, don't worry. I won't say anything." Charlotte immediatelyunderstood what she meant and replied decently, "Besides, you will bemy mother-in-law soon, and I will try my best to help you no matterwhat happens.”
