Francis’s front teeth had been broken by John, so he sounded like he was leaking air when he spoke.
Kerry stood up from the ground and said calmly, “Francis, Uncle! I don’t know why you’re here today, but I want to tell you that this painting was given to me by my friend. We’re no longer related, so I have no obligation to give this painting to you.”
“For you?” Francis, who was in the wheelchair, sneered. “Who do you think you are!? What right do you have to take that painting? Let me tell you: you better get this straight. Sharon gave you the painting as a congratulatory gift for the hotel’s opening. A portion of the money from the hotel belongs to our family, and my name is still on the contract! Besides, if it weren’t for my grandfather, how could you know how much this painting is worth? Moreover, you even got someone to beat me up. I haven’t asked you for my hospitalization bill, so just be satisfied!”
Kerry didn’t expect Francis to be so shameless. Jeremy was right beside him and didn’t plan on standing up for her.
“Francis, listen carefully. You were the one in the wrong for this matter, and at that time, this money was given to me by your grandfather. He said in front of everyone that he wouldn’t pursue the matter. The hotel is mine, and it has nothing to do with you! As for this painting, you should know that you believed it to be trash at first and didn’t want it at all!”
“Kerry, you can’t be like this!” Jeremy—who had been silent all this time—finally spoke. “If we go to court, you should know who they will award the hotel to. Moreover, you hired someone to hurt my son. Let me tell you: if you don’t take out that painting, I’m afraid this hotel won’t be able to continue operating in the future!”
Kerry looked at him in disbelief. “Jeremy… what are you talking about?! Do you know what he did to me?!”
“No matter what I did, you can’t get someone to hit me! Besides, this is my hotel. What right do you have to say that you won’t give it to me? Who else was at the scene when my grandfather said those words? Can you find a person who will testify for you?”
At this moment, a flirtatious and sexy woman walked in—it was the woman Sharon had seen at the 4S store earlier in the day. However, she was wearing a professional suit now, and at first glance, she looked like a high-end working group.
“You’re Kerry? I advise you to be smart. You won’t be able to imagine my network in New York! The power behind me isn’t something you can afford to provoke. To tell you the truth, I was on good terms with Francis before you appeared. I hope you know that if you don’t hand over the painting now, I’ll bring you to the police station. Coupled with what happened today, you’ll definitely go to jail!”
Kerry was so aggrieved that she couldn’t help but cry. She stared at Francis and couldn’t help but say, “It’s been a year, an entire year! We’ve worked so hard together for so long! Even if you don’t like me, you don’t have to harm me like this! Besides, how were you brought up? You actually have such morals! Do you not dare say what you did in front of your father?”
A chill flashed through Francis’s eyes as he gazed at Kerry and replied, “I’ve never liked you. Whether it was in the past or now, we were only together for money. A woman like you can’t get my liking at all. Look at Selina—only such a woman can obtain the recognition of my family!”
“Uncle, maybe Francis didn’t introduce me to you before. I’m his girlfriend, Selina!” As she spoke, the flirtatious woman intimately placed her hand on Francis’s shoulder. It was completely different from how it was in the day.
“Get out—all of you, get out! Francis, do you know that you’re really a b*stard?! You already have a woman, so why did you still want to r*pe me today? If you want money, you can tell me and not do such a thing! Both of you, get out!” Kerry’s eyes reddened, not because she cherished this relationship but because they had actually teamed up to invade her assets.
“I’m warning you, Kerry. If you don’t give me the painting, I won’t let you off easily! I’ll report this to you immediately.”
Hearing this, Sharon couldn’t help but walk out and clap.
When Selina saw her, she couldn’t help but ask, ‘Who are you?”
“She’s Sharon, the one who gifted the painting and beat me up!” Francis gritted his teeth and said. IfSharon weren ‘t from the Harris family, I would definitely find a way to kill her!
