The Heiress Strikes Back

105 Oriental and Western Combination

“I’m really sorry. I didn’t expect such a thing to happen.” Sharon first gave a simple apology.

They were the ones who caused this. Looking at James’s expression, she knew that he definitely didn’t feel any guilt.

Sure enough, James instantly stood up after seeing his daughter-in-law apologize.

With a flustered and awkward expression, he pointed at Sharon and said, “This is our daughter-in-law. She’s very rich! Whether it’s five million or ten million dollars, she has it. Just ask her for it! You can talk about the compensation yourselves. I have something on my hand, so I’ll get going first!”

As soon as he finished speaking, James ran out with all his might. He didn’t even turn around to look at Sharon.

Sharon was left standing there in a daze. I’ve heard June scolding James often, so I know that he is a little shameless... However, I didn’t expect him to be so shameless! James actually wants me to be the scapegoat. Is this something a normal senior can do?

The housekeeper walked forward with a look of disbelief on his face. He couldn’t help but say, “Miss... this bowl costs 8 million dollars. Do you want to pay by card or...”

“I’m sorry, I don’t have money either. Please contact the person who broke the bowl,” Sharon looked up and said seriously. I can’t let James continue to be so irresponsible. He has to settle this matter himself!

“That person is your father-in-law, right?”

Sharon nodded. “That’s right; he is indeed my husband’s father. He naturally has to compensate for the things he smashed, and I won’t be held responsible. Isn’t there a saying: ‘Every injustice has its perpetrator, and every debt has its debtor?’ I think you should go find him to settle this matter.”

It could be seen that the butler was a good person and didn’t want to implicate Sharon, but the compensation wasn’t up to him to decide...

“How about this? The few of you will go and invite Mr. James back. Before this matter is resolved, I hope that Miss can stay here.” The butler waved at the three bodyguards in black, indicating that they should quickly chase after James.

Actually, it wasn’t that Sharon couldn’t fork out this sum of money, but James was going too far. If she used a word to describe his actions, it would be ‘shameless!’ Instead of letting him ruin the Harris family’s reputation, it is better to let him suffer a little this time. Then, he won’t dare to mess around outside next time. Otherwise, I dare to believe that he will continue to trick me in the future!

Knowing that Sharon was an easygoing person, the butler didn’t make things difficult for her. Instead, he let her walk freely in the study room and do whatever she wanted.

Looking at the ancient relic that was destroyed by her father-in-law, Sharon was a little unwilling. James is really too much. He destroyed such a precious item just like that!

There were many books about medicine in the study, and some of them were books that Sharon understood. Most of them were on pharmaceuticals, and only some were in English. She could only recognize a few of them.

The faint medicinal fragrance in the room made Sharon feel comfortable. After taking a few deep breaths, she felt even more refreshed.

“Miss also knows about medicine?” asked the butler when he saw that she was enjoying the taste of traditional Chinese medicine.

Sharon shook her head and picked up a very small ancient book. “What is the title of this book? It feels very interesting. I wonder what it says!”

“There are a lot of medical cases and treatment methods that our old man has handled here. The combination of Eastern and Western methods is very useful!”

Hearing this, Sharon nodded. She had actually been in contact with some medical treatment and knew some theories, but the content of this book was clearly much more exquisite than what she knew.

Even the usage of Western medicine was slightly different from what she had imagined. There were some words that she could understand, and some amazing techniques were recorded.

Sharon gestured as she read. She was very impressed that the person who wrote this notebook could record it in such detail.

“Are you interested in my things?”
