Joanne had never experienced such humiliation before. Her eyes reddened as she shook her head vehemently and cried, "No, Dad! How could I possibly bed the Campbells?"
Harry struck her already red and swollen cheek with another vicious slap and roared, "Shut your mouth! You caused this mess, don't you dare try to run away from it!"
Joanne clutched her numb cheek, whimpering quietly.
Harry reached out through Hudson to express his wish to bring his daughter and apologize to Yosef.
Hudson asked Yosef, "Should we accept Harry's request?"
Yosef asked coldly, "Do I look like I have time for this?"
Hudson instantly grasped his meaning. "I'll handle it," he replied.
Hudson stood before Harry and Joanne, his expression unreadable. "I'm afraid Mr. Campbell has no intention of meeting with you."
Harry discreetly slipped a debt card into Hudson's hand and whispered urgently, "Mr. Cooper, please put in a good word for us. Just help us get a meeting with Mr. Campbell, and I'll make it worth your while."
Hudson pushed his hand away. "Sorry, I can't accept this.
"Leave now before you make Mr. Campbell any angrier. Or you'll lose even the last shred of your dignity."
With that, Hudson turned and walked away.
Harry's face went deathly pale.
Joanne glared at Hudson's retreating figure with disgust and complained to her father, "Dad, he's just an assistant! Who does he think he is, acting so high and mighty?"
Harry roared, "Shut your mouth!"
Joanne clamped her mouth shut.
"Now that the Campbells are out of the question, we'll have to try our luck with the Lamberts." Harry still clung to a glimmer of hope.
Carlos and Yana relayed the Green family's request to Skylar.
"No," Skylar replied flatly.
Harry hit another brick wall. At his wit's end, he desperately turned to his business connections for help.
Out of fear of the Lambert and Campbell families' influence, none of his business associates dared to help.
Left with no other choice, Harry made the ruthless decision to use Joanne as a bargaining chip to secure a lifeline for his company.
When Joanne found out her father had sold her off to a disabled man for three million dollars, she broke down, wailing, "I won't marry him!
"Dad! You always said I was your favorite! How could you do this to me?
"I won't marry him! Never! If someone else wants to, let her go ahead, but not me!"
Her desperate sobbing failed to move Harry. Instead, he beat her mercilessly.
Joanne lay on the bed, her body covered in bruises from the beating. Tears streamed down her face, soaking the pillow beneath her.
The Green Group was facing ruin, all because of her. Any trace of the fatherly love Harry once had was now completely gone.
He fixed her with a glare as cold and hateful as if she were his sworn enemy. "No more trouble, you will marry him, and that's final."
With the three million and various assets, it was just enough for him to weather the immediate crisis.
In the end, Joanne was forced to marry a disabled man. On her wedding day, the sight of her disfigured and crippled husband was more than she could bear. Overwhelmed by horror and despair, she snapped, grabbing a knife and stabbing him to death.
She was thrown in prison and sentenced to death.
Consumed by grief, the family used their connections to ensure Joanne suffered relentless torment in prison until, unable to bear it any longer, she took her own life.
Harry showed no grief over his daughter's death. Clutching the money, he deluded himself into thinking he could make a comeback, only to fail miserably.
Yosef left him no breathing room whatsoever.
The Green Group still went bankrupt.
Like the Green Group, the Kim Group saw its contracts terminated. With their capital chain broken, the company could no longer function.
The Kim Group went bankrupt as well.
Curtis was still in shock, completely clueless about who he could have possibly offended to bring about the collapse of the Kim Group.
Skylar only found out about the bankruptcies of both companies from the news, and she couldn't have cared less.
