Cleaning toilets?

Upon hearing this, the face of Mori Jones instantly darkened. She defended Sherry Jones, “Sherry is a talented graduate from Sayon University. Has our Jones Family grown to the point of assigning graduates to clean toilets? Also, I don’t need upkeep from you guys at the company. All of my achievements were earned by my own hands. You can fire me, and I’ll just take my resources to another company.

I believe Sherry and I are the same. We can stand firmly on our own abilities, not like some people, who rely on connections to get promotions!”

Mori Jones made a forceful argument, but met with a sneer from Snowden Jones.

“What difference does it make if she’s a university graduate? Nowadays, there are plenty of graduates who can’t find jobs. It’s been years since her graduation, has she ever held a proper job?

Don’t think I don’t know. When she was in River North, she was just a waitstaff at most. Assigning her to clean the toilets in our company is a promotion for her,” Snowden Jones said contemptuously.

Indeed, Sherry Jones ended up stranded in River North and worked as a waitress for a long time to avoid White Mitchell’s enemies, all the while undercover.

Then Snowden Jones turned to her boyfriend, Jacob Bright, “Jacob, don’t you think I’m right? How can we assign such a person to the company? You agree, right?”

After hearing her, Jacob understood immediately what she wanted and pretended to agree, “Grandma, I also feel that this arrangement is inconsistent. If it becomes public knowledge, it might leave us open to the accusation of nepotism.

Such a thing would not be tolerated in the Bright family, nor would we allow others to sponge off the resources.”

Upon hearing this, Old Madam Jones had to give some face to Jacob.

She directly said, “It would be enough if she stops causing trouble for the family. There is no need to bring her back to the company…”

“Mom, we haven’t even given Sherry a chance. How do we know she can’t handle it? If this gets out, won’t it dishearten everyone?” Mori Jones continued.

Upon hearing this, Old Madam Jones began to hesitate. Indeed, what Mori Jones said wasn’t entirely unreasonable.

The previous failed investment had already shaken people’s confidence. If word went out about the internal discord in the Jones Family, it might further destabilize morale.

“Snowden, Mori does have a point. How about we arrange Sherry to intern at your department for a month? If she is capable, she can stay. If not, then forget it,” Old Madam Jones suggested.

Old Madam Jones cared about Snowden’s opinion. After all, they were relying heavily on Jacob at the moment.

But Snowden obviously didn’t want Sherry to return to the company. However, out of respect for the Old Madam Jones, she couldn’t outright refuse.

How can she prevent Sherry from returning to the company?

Snowden wore a thoughtful expression before arrogantly saying, “We can let her intern, but on one condition.”

Upon hearing this, Sherry immediately became overjoyed and said, “Just give me the condition. As long as it enables me to return to the company, I will do

my utmost to fulfill it.”

Snowden heard this, laughed coldly and gave Sherry a dismissive look.

Want to return to the company? Keep dreaming!

“I’ll give you three conditions. If you can fulfill even one, I won’t stop your return to the company.

First, the company is currently in debt of ten million to the financial company. I will give you five million and one month to figure it out.

Second, within one month, reclaim GH Company that your father once mortgaged to the Thomas family.

Third, within one month, help the company expand to ten new channel merchants!

Those are the three conditions. I don’t care if you steal or rob, as long as you can fulfill any of them, I’ll allow you to return to the company.” wow!

With these conditions, the entire Jones Family fell silent.

Even Snowden’s mother, Amanda, couldn’t help but think: it’s harder than reaching the sky!

Yes, these three conditions are impossible to meet.

After all, the financial company the Jones Family owes ten million to is owned by Longman Jack, one of the two notorious underground rulers in Sayon.

Owing money to them is not a matter to be taken lightly. If the payment falls short, one might find themselves retrieved from the River Arch the next morning, let alone short of five million.

Then there’s the second condition. Years ago, Sherry Jones’ father, Logan Jones, in order to support White Mitchell’s start-up, mortgaged a promising subsidiary company owned by the Jones family to the Thomas family at a low price.

Now that the company is in the hands of the Thomas family, it has thrived. Thanks to this company, the Thomas family has securely occupied a position among the top third-tier families, and even has the momentum to challenge the second-tier families, vastly surpassing the Jones Family.

This company is a prized asset for the Thomas family. If they were to return it now, wouldn’t that be like asking for their lives? The Thomas Family would hardly agree to this.

As for the third condition, compared to the previous two, it seems more achievable. But it’s far from simple.

On the existing foundation of the Jones family, all possible development channels have been exhausted. Finding a new one is already extremely difficult, let alone ten.

Even if Snowden Jones had about ten channel dealers on hand, how could Sherry Jones possibly expand ten new channels within a month?

In summary, accomplishing any one of these conditions within a month is virtually impossible.

Having heard this, Mori Jones immediately objected: “Snowden Jones! What are these conditions? They’re obviously outrageous demands!

Even if Sherry had never been involved in the company’s business before, even your father wouldn’t necessarily be able to fulfill these tasks.

In doing so, you might as well openly admit that you’re just looking for ways to make things difficult for Sherry.”

Mori Jones was utterly enraged, standing up for Sherry Jones. Nevertheless, Snowden Jones seemed completely indifferent, saying nonchalantly: “What’s the matter, didn’t you just ask me to give her a chance?

I have given her three. If she can’t seize them, who can she blame?

If she isn’t competent enough, then she should not bother returning. The Jones family isn’t a charity. We don’t foster idlers.”

“You!”

Mori Jones was dumbfounded, looking very upset at Sherry Jones, who was struggling to remain composed.

At that moment, Sherry Jones stood helplessly in place. Her pretty face was filled with bitterness. Clearly, she understood the difficulty of these three conditions.

However, she didn’t want to miss this sole opportunity to fulfill her father’s last wish. Hence, she couldn’t help tearing up.

Snowden Jones looked at Sherry’s distraught state and sneered: “If you’re not capable, then admi….”

But before she could finish, an untimely voice suddenly rang out from behind Sherry: “Who says Sherry isn’t capable? I’ll take on these three conditions for her!”

Huh?

In an instant, everyone’s attention was focused on White Mitchell.

“White Mitchell, don’t be impulsive. These are obviously Herculean tasks, we…” Mori Jones advised, but White Mitchell just calmly stood beside Sherry Jones and silently took her hand.

Afterward, White Mitchell looked at Snowden Jones indifferently: “As you said earlier, fulfilling one condition would allow Sherry to return to the company, right? So, what happens if we complete all three?”

All three?

When this was said, everyone, except Mori and Sherry Jones, had an expression of mockery on their faces. They looked as if they were thinking, “That’s simply overestimating one’s abilities!”

Snowden Jones just scoffed and said, full of amusement: “If you were to complete the three, I would let her take my seat!”

Upon hearing this, White Mitchell simply shook his head in distaste: “The truth is, I’m not interested in your position. Let’s make this clear: if we meet these three conditions, Sherry will become the general manager of the company!” Whoa!

There was an instant uproar on the scene. White Mitchell was really daring enough to suggest that Sherry Jones be made the General Manager?

“What, don’t you have the guts to accept?” White Mitchell sneered.

“You!”

Snowden Jones was so furious she nearly blacked out. She gritted her teeth and snapped: “Fine! If you can fill my three conditions, then she can be the general manager!

But if you can’t meet all three, she should never dream of setting foot in the company again! And you! If you fail, you’ll kneel in front of me and kowtow to apologize! ”

Facing the belligerent Snowden Jones, White Mitchell gave a look of indifference: “You’re not qualified enough to bet with me!”

After that, White Mitchell brushed Snowden Jones aside and turned his attention to Old Madam Jones: “Old Madam, what do you say? Are you on or off for this bet?”
