Chapter 2: Let me go to jail
Just then, two angry figures blocked Rose's path.
They are Jerry's biological parents, Robert Miller and Laxmi Bohra!
[A/N: Father : Robert Miller / Mother : Laxmi Bohra]
"You beast, kneel down!" Robert rushed up to Jerry and slapped him across the face.
After a loud snap.
Laxmi, as if possessed, cursed wildly: "How could I have given birth to such a bastard like you!"
"Mom knows you like Lele, but she's your little brother's girlfriend. How could you lay a hand on her while she was drunk?"
Upon hearing this, the employees watching were all shocked, staring at Jerry in disbelief. How dare the usually timid chairman force himself on his younger brother's girlfriend?
Rose frowned deeply, stopped in her tracks, and stared coldly at Jerry.
Jerry looked at his so-called parents with cold eyes, a contemptuous smile curling at the corner of his mouth.
They were originally down-on-their-luck middle-aged men burdened with huge debts, and it was only through the shares they received from Jerry, they achieved their current status in their hometowns.
Yet they showed no gratitude towards me, instead arbitrarily insulting and persecuting me.
He wanted nothing more than to slap them back, but since the Miller Family was already deeply entrenched in JM Group, he could only feign compliance for the time being.
Jerry looked at the two of them calmly, as if they were watching two circus monkeys.
Seeing his reaction, Robert and the other man became even more furious.
Because in their minds, Jerry should immediately bow her head and beg for their forgiveness.
"Are you trying to rebel by not saying anything? You've made Jacob cry!" Laxmi screamed.
"If we hadn't stopped him, he might have called the police."
"Dad came to help you because he considers you his son," Robert said righteously, his voice firm and resolute.
"Didn't I tell you to give Jacob ten percent of its shares?"
"Give him 15 percent and give me 5 percent of the shares."
"I'll reluctantly help you, resolve this matter, you beast."
Jerry smiled, knowing they were there to ask for something in return.
He gave a cold laugh: "You've almost divided up all my shares."
"You beast! Why are you speaking like a different person when we're all family?" Robert immediately became agitated upon hearing this.
"Whether the shares are in your hands or ours, isn't it all the same?" The onlookers let out disdainful sneers.
Many of the people were members of the Miller Family, there to see Jerry make a fool of himself.
Rose smiled coldly, knowing that Jerry was about to back down again, and was about to turn and leave.
But upon hearing Jerry's next words, she silently stopped in her tracks.
"If Jacob wants to call the police, let him." Jerry's voice was calm.
"But shares, absolutely not."
"If you want to spoil Jacob, then give him your shares."
"I'm not his father or mother, nor his biological brother. He's just an adopted son. Why should I spoil him?"
"A mere adopted son dares to scheme against my things. You should go back and ask them what good things they've done."
Upon hearing this, the onlookers and employees all gasped in shock. When did the chairman become so assertive, even offering to call the police?
Is the chairman really being wronged?
"You beast! We're here to help you, and you're making malicious assumptions!"
"I always said that you are not worthy of entering the Miller Family, you bastard."
Robert glared fiercely at Jerry: "I'm waiting for you at home. Get the hell home right now."
"At the company, I'll give you some face." After saying that, the two slammed the door and left.
Currently, Jerry is still the de facto head of JM Group, and they dare not offend him to the point of no return.
They were afraid that Jerry would do something reckless and ruin their JM Group.
'Jerry scoffed. Giving me face?'
Coming to the company and causing a scene has already made him lose face within the company.
He looked coldly at the crowd: "Don't you have to work?"
The crowd scattered in a huff, accompanied by bursts of laughter.
The new employee slunk away, while the veteran employee felt that the chairman only dared to vent his anger on his employees, and was a coward when it came to his family, and looked at him with disdain.
Many people were surprised by Jerry's transformation, their eyes filled with shock and a glimmer of hope.
Is JM Group, which has plummeted from its peak in just a few years, finally about to undergo a major upheaval?
Rose was about to turn and leave when Jerry grabbed her hand.
"Oh, the chairman is quite assertive today." Rose's beautiful eyes turned cold, and she smiled faintly.
"You actually dared to refuse."
"I thought you would kneel down and beg them for forgiveness."
Jerry closed the office door and said softly, "I need your help. I want to take back JM Group."
"You must be joking," Rose scoffed.
"You should just continue being your family's good son and good brother."
"Besides, I'm just a secretary, there's nothing I can do to help."
"I have absolutely no feelings for them anymore. They're more like enemies than family." Jerry's voice was filled with boundless anger as he said in an unquestionable tone, "Miss Paper, please help me one last time, okay?"
Rose said coldly, "The company has already been infiltrated and controlled by your family. You're only thinking about seizing power now? Where were you before?"
Jerry stared intently at Rose: "Only you can help me now. I want to take back JM Group."
"Help me find some private investigators and recall the old employees."
"Pass down the notice: a shareholders' meeting will be held in my name at 3 p.m. tomorrow."
Rose calmly pushed Jerry away, turned around and left the office.
Looking at her stubborn back, Jerry felt a pang of emptiness in his hand as he carried the duffel bag full of office supplies.
Perhaps she went to help me, or perhaps she resolutely left...
After carefully reviewing the company's documents in his office, he received a call from Lele.
On the phone, Lele's tone was icy: "At the Emperor's Feast, Room no. 8. If you don't want to be disgraced and imprisoned, come find me."
Jerry closed his eyes in pain, countless memories flooding his mind.
' Lele and I grew up in the same orphanage; we were childhood sweethearts.'
She would always affectionately call him Jerry, and even promised to marry him when he grew up.
But ever since she was adopted by the Sen Family, she has fallen deeply in love with his adopted younger brother, Jacob.
She came to hate him because of Jacob's goading and, like his sisters, always believed he was the one who mistreated Jacob.
In his previous life, he endured her disgust and insults, patiently agreeing to any of her conditions. He would obediently comply with her every word.
After being framed, he was forced into a fake marriage with her. She cheated him out of most of his assets, making him suffer ridicule from countless people.
Jerry clenched his fists, a cold smile curling at the corner of his mouth.
In this life, I will make her a despicable person despised by everyone.
"I'm talking to you? Are you deaf?" Lele's impatient voice came from the phone.
Jerry sneered and hung up the phone. He picked up the company's account books from the past few years and began to carefully review them, while also turning off his phone.
When he went to the company cafeteria at noon, the employees kept their distance from him and whispered among themselves.
Jerry remained expressionless, finished his lunch, and returned to his office for a nap. Halfway through the lunch break, there was a rapid knocking at the door.
Jerry smirked, knowing who it was, and deliberately left her waiting for a few minutes before opening the door.
Wearing a white dress that revealed her bare shoulders, Lele, whose beauty was undeniable, stormed in with red eyes, angrily saying, "How dare you! Do you know how long I've been waiting for you at the hotel?"
"Fine, if you're not coming, then why aren't you answering my calls?"
"If it weren't for my brother Jacob's persuasion, I would have called the police directly instead of coming to the company to give you one last chance."
Jerry sat down, looked at her calmly, and nodded to signal her to continue. Lele thought Jerry had given in, and said coldly, "Brother Jacob has never touched me, yet you forcibly took my innocent body."
"Tell me, what should we do?"
Jerry couldn't help but let out a cold laugh.
A clean body?
She and Jacob have slept together countless times in secret, yet she's still pretending.
He said coldly, "Lele, there are only the two of us here now. Are you still going to pretend?"
Lele's eyes were filled with shock, but also with anger that made them red.
Normally, Jerry would have already knelt down and begged for forgiveness, letting her make any demands.
But he actually treated her like this.
She retorted angrily, "You slept with me, so you have to take responsibility for me. Only then can I reluctantly agree to marry you."
After saying that, she raised her chin, as if it were a favor to Jerry: "I know you have always liked me. As long as you sign this contract, I will forgive you and marry you."
Jerry took the contract, glanced at it, shook his head and smiled.
It stated that he would give her 20% of the shares in JM Group and one million yuan in pocket money every month after marriage.
He couldn't touch her; he could only hold her hand in public. We can't interfere with her personal feelings; the child has to call Jacob "Dad"...
In my previous life, in order to avoid going to jail and also to marry the goddess, I signed this shameful marriage contract without even looking at her.
He looked at Lele with a mocking smile: "This contract? Are you serious?"
Lele's expression was furious: "Otherwise what? You think I'm joking?"
"Jerry, let me tell you, if you don't marry me and sign this contract, I will ruin your reputation! I'll make sure you spend the rest of your life in jail!"
Jerry stood up, her voice calm: "Please, ruin my reputation, let me go to jail."
