Reacting fast, Liam quickly grabbed Demi and he whispered, “Demi, stop making trouble because we
can’t win against the Harrison Family. Let’s go home first!”
However, Demi’s face was full of unwillingness. She apologized and was even slapped a few times by
Crystal. How could she be willing to go back like this? That being said, the Harrison Family might not
agree to let her leave even if she wanted to.
“I’m afraid you can’t leave!” Crystal announced coldly. “Your apology is not sincere enough and now that I
think of it, I believe there’s no need for us to reconcile. Grandpa, I want to call the police. I want to put
her in jail!”
Mr. Harrison nodded calmly. “No problem!”
Upon hearing that, Demi was dumbfounded. She had apologized and was even slapped four times.
How could they choose to forget about that?
“Hey, d-don’t keep pushing my buttons. I have already apologized so what more do you want? You can’t
go back on your word like that!” Demi argued anxiously.
However, Crystal only chuckled coldly. “How can you call that an apology? Since you are not sincere,
then there’s no need for me to reconcile with you! Forget it. I don’t want to waste time talking with
someone like you who has no integrity. Get ready to go to jail!”
Seeing Mr. Harrison taking out his mobile phone, Helen quickly said, “Miss Harrison, I-I beg you. Please
give her a chance. She’s still young… I-If she goes to jail, her whole life will be ruined. H-How about I
apologize to you? I’m really sorry…”
Crystal glanced at Helen in disdain. “The person who slapped me should be the one apologizing! If your
daughter is unwilling to apologize, then I will put her in jail! As for you, you are not qualified to speak
here!”
Helen looked at Demi helplessly, knowing that Crystal was deliberately making things difficult for Demi.
Demi’s complexion flushed red. Finally, she gave in and said, “Miss Harrison, I’m sorry. I know I was in
the wrong. P-Please give me a chance…”
Demi was so frustrated as she was slapped four times and still had to apologize in the end. Truth was,
she had never been embarrassed like this before. However, in front of the Harrison Family, she could
only hold it in.
Crystal glanced at her and said coldly, “You’re just a nobody. I can’t be bothered with such an
insignificant person like you. You’d better take this as a lesson. Remember, the next time you see me,
don’t even think about doing anything to me. Otherwise, you won’t be so lucky again!” With that, Crystal
waved her hand. “Get out!”
James and the others ran out from the Harrison Family compound in a panic. Demi was extremely
furious, but in the end she dared not say anything. What happened this time made her fear Crystal deep
down and she wouldn’t dare to be disrespectful to her anymore.
In fact, this matter was not significant enough for the Harrison Family to deal with them. This time,
Crystal actually wanted to vent her frustration for Matthew’s sake. She felt that Matthew was too tolerant
to the Cunningham Family, so she took this opportunity to teach the Cunningham Family a lesson.
Of course, James and the others would never expect that Crystal avenging Matthew was the reason.
When they walked out of the Harrison Residence, they were all rejoicing at the fact that Crystal chose
not to pursue the matter further. Otherwise, they would surely run into trouble.
“No matter what, the matter is finally resolved. Demi, you should forget about this. Take this incident as a
lesson and you should never hit others at will again,” Helen gave a heartfelt piece of advice.
Demi’s face turned pale. She was very furious, but she was powerless to do anything.
“Dad, what about the construction company? Are we really going to let Matthew be in charge of it? That’s
a billion-dollar business; it can’t be handed over to Matthew!” Demi murmured in a low voice.
James waved his hand. “Stop talking about this. I’ve decided that I’ll let Matthew be in charge of the
construction company. Let’s not get into trouble anymore because I really can’t afford to get into any
trouble again.”
