Chapter 242: Chapter 242: Let Her Be Arrogant for a Few Days_1

Cindy Harrison sneered, “Greg, it was just about playing the fool, no one killed you. Why can’t you just play the fool obediently in your village?

Why did you have to come mess around in Jamae City? Do you even have what it takes?

I advise you, get out of Jamae City now, immediately, right this minute. In consideration of our past, I will let it go.

Otherwise…”

Pfft!

Before she could finish, Greg couldn’t help but burst into laughter. “Do we still have something like affection between us? How come I didn’t know about that?”

At that, he smacked his forehead, as if suddenly realizing something, and said, “Oh, I remember now. You’re talking about… past affection? Is it ‘wan’ or ‘ri’?”

Cindy Harrison’s face turned ashen with anger and she shouted, “You… you are shameless!”

Greg replied indifferently, “Don’t hurry, when you get married, I’ll show you what true shamelessness is!”

“You…”

At this moment, Judy Lampe, along with the decorators, walked over. She glanced at Greg and snorted coldly:

“Cindy, don’t lower yourself to argue with a fool. Have you forgotten what we came here for today?”

Cindy Harrison’s expression quickly softened, and she forced a casual sneer, “Right, I almost forgot the gift.

Come on, bring up the gift I have for Boss Greg!”

Before she had finished speaking, several loaders came over, carefully standing a wooden box upright at the entrance.

Cindy Harrison, staring into Greg’s eyes, sneered, “Open it, let Boss Greg see whether he likes this gift or not.”

“Sure, Director Zhang.”

The loaders hurriedly took a crowbar and disassembled all the panels from the wooden box.

A standing clock about 1.8 meters high, painted entirely black, was unveiled before everyone.

“This is… a congratulatory gift?”

“She’s giving an ‘end’ for their opening? This isn’t a congratulatory gift, it’s like she’s wishing for Dreamscape Garden to close down immediately!”

“Isn’t that too much? Whatever grievances they have, can’t they settle them privately? To send such a disgusting thing during their opening, that’s really low.”

The crowd was buzzing with comments, and the employees of Dreamscape Garden turned pale with anger.

The salaries at Dreamscape Garden were generally higher than the average in Jamae City, and that was not even counting the year-end bonuses and commissions.

If those were included, the average office worker might not earn as much as they did.

Greg’s face also darkened, and a wave of anger began to surge within him.

Kingsley Harrison was even more furious, pointing at Cindy Harrison and cursing, “You little girl, have you no decorum at all?

Next time your family has an opening, shall I also come over and send a funeral bell, how about that?”

Judy Lampe stepped forward, blocking Cindy Harrison, and scoffed, “Heh, if you’re not afraid of getting beaten black and blue, go ahead, I welcome it anytime!”

Cindy Harrison mockingly glanced at Greg and instructed without turning back, “Place this funeral bell at the most conspicuous place at the entrance.”

Greg frowned, still remaining silent.

Kingsley Harrison was so angry he was about to explode, shouting, “Cindy Harrison, you’ve gone too far!”

“I’ve gone too far?”

Cindy Harrison looked as though she had heard a joke, disbelief written all over her face. She turned to Judy Lampe and asked, “Auntie, he says I’ve gone too far, do you think I have?”

Judy Lampe played along with a smile, “Don’t listen to his nonsense. You’re not only reasonable, but you’re also a kind person.

Dreamscape Garden has opened such a large business here, and yet there’s not a single guest. We came here today especially to support Dreamscape Garden.

If this is considered excessive, then I really don’t know what’s considered proper anymore.”

“You… you are too bullying!”

Angered, Kingsley Harrison gasped for breath, pointing at Cindy Harrison but not knowing what to say.

Facing the odd behavior of Cindy Harrison and Judy Lampe, Greg Jensen remained calm, saying:

“Mr. Harrison, don’t stoop to her level, prepare to greet the guests instead.”

“Yes, Mr. Jensen.”

Kingsley Harrison glared fiercely at the two and snapped, “Out of the way, a good dog doesn’t block the path!”

Cindy Harrison curled her lip, let out a cold laugh, and without hurry, pulled Judy Lampe to the side, waiting to see Greg Jensen make a fool of himself.

“Mr. Jensen, congratulations…”

“Mr. Jensen, best of luck on your opening day!”

Micah Brent, Chestor Ware, and others walked over, laughing and offering their good wishes from afar. As they approached and noticed the grandfather clock near the entrance, their expressions suddenly darkened.

With a serious face, Micah Brent said, “Who brought this here? On such a joyous opening day, why would you place this thing at the entrance? Move it away at once!”

“I brought it. You have a problem with that?” Cindy Harrison said with a sneer.

Micah Brent frowned, sizing up Cindy Harrison, and said coldly, “I don’t care who you are, giving someone a grandfather clock for their opening day, no matter how you justify it, you have absolutely no good reason!”

“I want to give it, what business is it of yours?”

Cindy Harrison rolled her eyes, impatiently retorting, “Old man, if you have the guts, use them; if you don’t, just go die in a corner!”

In her eyes, even if Greg Jensen was now wealthy, he was still that same useless poor kid from college.

How impressive could a poor kid’s friends be?

As the future lady of the Lin family, she could scold someone if she pleased, and if scolding wasn’t satisfying enough, she dared to get physical!

However, instead of getting angry at her words, Micah Brent let out a cold laugh.

Looking at Cindy Harrison’s arrogant face, he asked ominously, “Are you insulting me?”

“Oh, look at that, a fish finding a fish and a shrimp finding a shrimp, a turtle finding a soft-shelled turtle! No wonder you’re friends with that trash Greg Jensen. You must be deaf, eh?

Or are you saying you’re not human, so you can’t understand human speech?”

Cindy Harrison glanced at Micah Brent and scoffed, “Just look at your poor appearance, still have the nerve to come over and offer congratulations, aren’t you ashamed!”

Micah Brent laughed in anger, pointing at Cindy Harrison and said, “Alright, insulting an inspector, huh? Just you wait…”

After speaking, he picked up his phone to make a call, then said into it, “Get out of the car, bring the handcuffs.

Someone has insulted an inspector, take her directly back to Riverhaven County when you get here, ask her what’s going on.”

On hearing this, Cindy Harrison suddenly paused, and asked blankly, “You are an inspector?”

Micah Brent said with a mocking smile, “Oh, I forgot to introduce myself, the Chief of Riverhaven County Inspectorate, Micah Brent.”

“Inspectorate… Chief?”

Cindy Harrison was suddenly confused, “How could there be a Chief of the Inspectorate among Greg Jensen’s friends? Impossible, right?”

Greg Jensen was just a country boy, how could a chief-level figure come to congratulate him?

But before she could recover from her surprise, two inspectors approached from afar.

When they reached Micah Brent, one of them asked, “Chief, who insulted you just now?”

Micah Brent pointed at Cindy Harrison and said indifferently, “It’s her, take her to the car for now. Once I’m done here, we’ll bring her back to Riverhaven County together.”

“Yes, Chief.”

The two inspectors acknowledged and immediately walked towards Cindy Harrison.
