Maureen closed her eyes, twitching in fright, expecting a slap to land across her face, but nothing happened.When she opened her eyes, she was shocked.James held the bulky man's hand in mid air before it landed on her face.She stared at James in shock, she did not know what to say.The whole crowd gasped in shock and a hushed silence fell over the scene, tension escalating.Why is James so daring?Lucas Rattler did not expect someone to stand up for this old lady and he asked coldly "Who the hell are you? Do you want to die too?"When Lucas said this he was fuming with anger.He was greatly respected by countless people in Aston Villa but today he has encountered one disrespect to another.First, it was Darren yelling in his face, then it was a miserable old lady who was chirping in front of him.And now a young kid was holding onto one of his men's hand, staring at Lucas defiantly.What kind of animals dared to contradict what he said?Thinking of this infuriated him the more and
Everyone was stunned that James could make Lord Lucas actually kneel on the ground.Nobody in the whole of the south district could make The underground Lord bow to his feet not even people in political power.Lord Lucas was the underground Emperor what kind of man could make him kneel?Lucas Rattler and his men were scared as shit!James was not interested in taking Lucas's life, all he wanted was to protect Maureen from harm.James then said with a calm expression to Lucas who was still on the floor "I can forgive you this time, but speaking about my Matron's money, you must return everything and you must return it with the profit this scam company promised!"Lucas was relieved as he heard James' words, at least today would not be his last day, he saw it as amnesty, he really didn't expect James to forgive him.He immediately blurted out "Don't worry I will do it, I will refund all her money with the profits!"After he immediately turned to Maverick, who clearly had not recovered fr
James frowned and said coldly "And why should I help you? You all mocked me, insulted me, and belittled me. Now, you want my help? You reap what you sow. Deal with the consequences of your actions or find another person in a higher place to help you out."They were all filled with regret when they heard this.It was all their fault, and their only chance of reclaiming their lost money had slipped away.Thinking about this, some of them began to roll on the floor wailing, some began to even slap themselves crying it's all over! All their money is gone!With that, James turned away, leaving the group of uncles and aunts to their fate.As James and Maureen entered the house, Maureen could not help but ask the question that had been bugging her mind."James?" Maureen called softly."Yes, Maureen" James answered.From the curious look on her face, James could tell what she was about to ask."How do you know the Underground Lord Lucas and why was he so polite to you?"James took a moment to
The next day James took a taxi to the part of town where they deal in cars.On the radio in the taxi, there was a discussion about the Sky Garden being chartered.The hosts were all amazed for more than five years, the Sky Garden has not been rented out to anyone. They were all curious to know who could have such great power and influence.The taxi driver also added glancing at James through the rear mirror as he navigated the traffic "I have not seen anything like this in years, I want to know the god-level rich man that was able to pull this off. It must be the same wealthy man that was in that trending online the other day at The Golden City Mall boutique"James did not reply, he just gave a faint smile, he was just a little surprised.It seemed that the news of the Sky Garden being reserved, caused a lot of sensation throughout Aston Villa.Everyone knew that even platinum reservations in Cherry Garden are not eligible to dine in the Sky Garden.So who on earth could have the influ
The sales girl was shocked and she said: "Sir, this car had just arrived in our store yesterday, are you sure you want to buy it?"James nodded and said "Absolutely, bring me the payment machine to swipe my card""Ahh! The car is worth $2.3 million!" The other person said as she was dumbfounded.She has been selling cars for a long time and she has never seen someone ask about such an expensive car and not care about the price.The sales girl looked at James again "Sir, have you seen the price?"James smiled and said "Yes, I have seen the price, are you selling or not?"The sales girl nodded happily "Yes sir! We're selling we're selling!"She was so excited selling such an expensive car would give her a commission of up to three thousand dollars!The sales girl quickly brought the payment machine, and James confidently swiped his card to make the purchase of the luxurious Range Rover 820. The transaction was smooth, and the sales girl couldn't hide her excitement, knowing the substanti
James was startled a bit but still maintained his composure, he smiled and said "Ohh, this?" He said pointing to the car outside "I bought it"Maureen was even more surprised "You bought it? "Where did you get the money from?" She said with raised eyebrows.James said "I took a loan from the bank""Loan from the bank?" Maureen echoed looking at James suspiciously, she had known James all his life, he was the type that would save every penny he got and now he bought such an expensive car. James noticing Maureen was not satisfied added "There was this flyer about a bank at work they were giving very low interest so I decided to take it, besides it would help me drive you around easily"Maureen, though still perplexed, she was not entirely convinced, but she knew James would not lie to her so she said "Hmmm... Okay, but I hope you've thought this through. It's unlike you to make such big decisions impulsively, James."James, sensing Maureen's lingering curiosity, approached her with a r
James was already expecting Ronald's mocking remarks, back in high school he would always taunt him at every chance he got. James maintained a calm demeanor and said "Good to see you too Ronald, and this is my car I don't need a lottery to be able to afford it"Ronald, eyeing James with disdain, then said, "Well, since you're so confident, how about a little friendly competition? A race to prove whose Range Rover is truly superior."James frowned at Ronald, why does he always want to prove himself by stepping on others?Besides his car was definitely faster, he had a Range Rover 820 and Ronald's car was a Range Rover 560, racing with him is like a tortoise challenging hare.Ronald, seeing James frown, misinterpreted it as fear. With a sly grin, he continued, "Come on, James, I thought you liked a challenge. Unless, of course, you're afraid that your new 'toy' can't keep up with the real deal. If you are reluctant to bear the petrol charges, don't worry I'll pay to fill up your tank"
James, in his supposedly inferior 'toy,' unleashed a burst of speed that left Ronald in a trail of dust. The crowd gasped in amazement, witnessing James' Range Rover 820 surge forward with astonishing power. His Range Rover had only a 400 horsepower engine while his own car had a 600 horsepower engine, which was nearly double, so how on earth did James overtake him?The classmates who had gathered to watch the race were also dumbfounded."I can't believe what I'm seeing. James is leaving Ronald in the dust!""I never thought James' 'toy' could outperform Ronald's car. This is insane!"No one thought that James who was bound to lose, would outrun Ronald's car which had so much gap, leaving him far behind!Before Ronald reached halfway to the roundabout James had already gone around the roundabout and returned to the starting point.Wow, James won!This was unbelievable!James, supposedly inferior 'toy,' had just won the race. Ronald did not even bother reaching the roundabout, he just
