Chapter 225 Family Showdown
After hearing Daniel’s words, Asher felt embarrassed and directly asked. “Daniel, whose side are you

“I am on the right side,” Daniel responded, looking at Asher. “Since Jennifer has agreed, you should just go along with it. There is no need to keep pushing her to back down. It is unfair
to her.”
It was only now that Daniel realized how unfair he had been to Jennifer in the past.
He had not noticed before, but after experiencing the same situation with Sarah, he began to understand Jennifer’s perspective.
He thought, “Earlier, Asher’s handling of the situation had clearly favored Sarah.”
Asher’s face turned darker,
Sarah had not expected Daniel to side with Jennifer. She thought, “This was all wrong.”
Asher said, “Do not forget who forced you to publicly apologize and clarify the plagiarism scandal, causing you to lose this year’s Best Singer award. Now Jennifer wants to drag the Hargreaves family down with her. Do you not understandy”

Sarah added. “That is true, Daniel, both Asher and I are doing this for the good of the Hargreaves family.”
Jennifer scoffed. “Stop making excuses. I have said I will cooperate and explain things to Timothy. But Sarah needs to stay in the basement for a few days, or you can stay for a few extra days instead.”
Asher tried to respond, but Jennifer interrupted him. “Just answer yes or no. Stop talking nonsense.”
Reluctantly, Asher finally spoke. “I have company matters to attend to these days, so I cannot stay in the basement all the time.”
Jennifer replied. “You can stay at night, and go to work during the day. It will not be a problem.”
The room fell silent.
Asher continued to speak. “But I might work late and not come back.”
“If you are not coming back, it is the same if Sarah stays. I am fine with it.”
Jennifer could not help but watch their changing expressions, enjoying the scene of the Hargreaves family fighting amongst themselves.
Sarah’s face darkened. “Asher, can you stay tonight? I need to see a doctor for my cold.”

“I might have to attend a meeting at the company tonight. I cannot stay at home. You go ahead, and I will come back when I am done.”
Reluctantly, Sarah agreed.
Afterward, Jennifer felt much better. She took out her IV and slowly walked out of the basement. She glanced at James, who quickly stepped aside in fear.
Finally, Jennifer reached the living room and sat at the dining table. “Get me something to eat,” she demanded.
She thought, “How could I have the energy to deal with them without being full?”
After eating, Jennifer finally felt alive again.
She went upstairs to her bedroom, where she found Sarah begrudgingly packing up. It took her a long time to get it done.
Jennifer casually laid on the bed. Sarah screamed. “This is real silk bedding! I just got the new set!”
Jennifer opened her eyes. “Is it?”
“Yes, this silk bedding is very precious,”
Jennifer placed her feet on it, rubbing them intentionally.
Sarah was enraged. “Jennifer, are you crazy? You will have lo

“The crazy one is you. This is the Hargreaves family. I do not have to compensate for anything. Only you, an outsider, need. to,” Jennifer sneered.
Sarah was furious.
Jennifer smiled coldly. “If I wake up and you still have not cleaned up, I will throw everything out and burn it.”
Sarah was fuming, but when she saw no one around, she lowered her voice. “Jennifer, you are not going to be in this room much longer.”
“You are wrong. From now on, you will not be allowed in here.”
“We will see about that!”
Sarah replied, finally starting to clean up so nothing else would be ruined.
When Jennifer woke up, her room was in disarray, clearly because of the mess left by Sarah.
She went downstairs and told James. “Have the maids clean up the room. When I get out of the shower, I want it to be exactly as it was before, or you are all fired.”
James was angry but did not dare to speak, remembering how close he came to being kicked out of the Hargreaves family.

Jennifer soaked in the bath, washing her hair. These past days. had nearly driven her crazy.
But she had figured something out. She thought, “If I could not live comfortably, neither would the Hargreaves family.
It was either explode in silence or perish in silence.”
When Jennifer got out of the bath, she saw that her room had been restored to its previous state. “This room really brings me peace.”
Daniel knocked on the door. “Can I come in?”
Jennifer glanced at Daniel standing at the door. “What is up?”
Daniel brought her a glass of milk. “Drink this before bed; it is good for your health.”
Jennifer sneered. “Stop being so fake. You are only doing this to prevent the Hargreaves family from going bankrupt.”
She thought, “I was not naive enough to be moved by his acts of kindness.”
