Chapter 217 Snatch Everything From Jennifer
Daniel approached Sarah, his expression grim.
Sarah was in good spirits. Seeing Daniel back, she smiled and said, “You’re back just in time! Can you help me with the dinner. menu? I don’t know what Mr. Clark likes to eat. So it’s hard to prepare.”
Daniel stared at her and replied, “While you were planning dinner, did you forget that Jennifer is locked in the basement and hasn’t eaten?”
Hearing this, Sarah’s smile faded.
She nervously clutched the menu and stammered, “It was Asher’s order to lock Jennifer up. It wasn’t my decision.”
Feeling unhappy, she thought it unfair for Daniel to be angry with her, as she wasn’t responsible.
“But you should ask Asher to let Jennifer out. She deserves to attend tonight’s dinner, right?” Daniel remained upset.
Despite being Ms. Hargreaves, Jennifer was now overshadowed by Sarah, an outsider.
Sarah forced a smile and said, “I know I was wrong. I’ll talk to
Chapter 217 Snatch Everything From Jennifer Asher after dinner and ask him to let Jennifer out.”

Daniel said, “Why not just let Jennifer join us for dinner? You’re discussing the engagement with the Clark family anyway.”
Sarah’s expression stiffened. “Daniel, it wouldn’t be appropriate for Jennifer to be there. If Mr. Clark sees her and gets angry, he might cancel the engagement, and the Hargreaves family could go bankrupt.”
Daniel fell silent, prioritizing the need to maintain cooperation with the Clark family over Jennifer’s release.
He glanced at the basement, feeling guilty, and resolved to free Jennifer after dinner.
Sarah sensed that Daniel wouldn’t side with Jennifer in matters concerning the family’s finances.
The men in the Hargreaves family were resolute about such issues, and she believed she could continue to rely on this to turn the family against Jennifer, eventually leading to her expulsion.
Once she married Timothy and became Mrs. Clark, she wouldn’t have to deal with the Hargreaves family anymore.
Daniel wasn’t in a good mood.
Soon, Asher rushed back. When he saw that the villa was more than ready, he praised Sarah, “You’ve worked hard.”

Asher said in concern, “Isn’t this too much for you? A girl taking the initiative can be looked down upon by men.”
Sarah’s smile widened. “I’ve always wanted to contribute to the Hargreaves family. Now that I can, I’ll give it my all.”
Asher felt a pang of guilt for not treating her well before. “Sarah, after this dinner, I’ll have you run a branch office as compensation.”
“Really? Thank you, Asher! I’ll work hard.” Sarah was thrilled at the prospect of managing the Hargreaves family property.
Even as she planned to marry into the Clark family, she wouldn’t mind having more money, especially since it would come at Jennifer’s expense.
Daniel overheard and was confused. “Asher, didn’t we decide that branch would go to Jennifer?”
Asher said, “That was the plan, but since Jennifer doesn’t care about the family’s well–being, I can’t either. If the Hargreaves family goes bankrupt, she’ll get nothing.”
Asher looked at Sarah. “It’s better to give it to Sarah. At least she’s putting in the effort for the family.”
Sarah suppressed her excitement. “I’ll work hard, but will Jennifer get angry if she finds out?”

“Don’t worry about her. You’re the Hargreaves family’s main successor now. When Mr. Clark arrives, you must impress him.”
Sarah smiled happily. “I’ll do my best.”
With her plans for Timothy, she felt she would finally surpass Jennifer.
Before long, the Clark family’s car arrived at Hargreaves Villa.
Timothy exited his wheelchair, looking around. It was his first visit to Hargreaves Villa.
