"Why did he come back?" Asked Iyke. Well, I'm not surprised at all that he's back," Lia said matter of factly. You must have forgotten that Mr. Bruce's birthday party is around the corner. This brother of mine will never want to lose the opportunity to suck up to my father."Let's go and have a look, said Iyke.The power struggle between the siblings of the Campbell family was not a secret in HonorGrave.Lia's three elder brothers had lost during the power struggle, making Lia the head of the family.Lia's second and third eldest brothers were aware that they simply could not defeat their younger sister. One of them had left for another country, while the other had accepted his fate and worked at one of the subsidiaries that belonged to the Campbell family.Daniel, Lia's eldest brother was the only one who didn't want to concede defeat. He also had considerable wealth and power. As such, he had been using those to fight against Lia.Angela was soon back at the office after she left Mo
James knew that Jackson had arranged for Ava to come over to the garden room at this moment."Well, nothing much," Jackson said as he smiled. I have asked James about some work matters, is dinner ready?""Yes, dinner is ready," Ava said as he pointed behind her. Linda asked me to inform both of you that dinner is ready.James quirked his eyebrows as he heard this particular remark.James thought, "well, true enough."Grandpa and Linda have put on a good show.As James assessed the progress of the situation, he realized that he would be snubbing Jackson if he chose not to make his thoughts known to him.Ava climbed on the organization ladder in Bailey Group would then be a difficult journey James said as he smiled. I have been discussing with Grandpa my plan to move one of the Life Long auctions to the newly completed Harmony Hotel."Oh really?" said Ava. She was greatly surprised as soon as she heard that remark. She gave James a wide-eyed stare. "Why haven't you told me about this pl
"Alright tell me then," said Turner. He was breathing loudly out of anger."Dad heard what happened," said Angela."Yesterday, the head of the Campbell family, Lia..." Angela then explained her plan to Turner.After listening to Angela's plan, Turner was both shocked and proud. He exchanged glances with his wife."Angela, are you confident enough to execute this plan successfully?" Said Turner earnestly. "If this plan backfires, our family will no longer have these opportunities to make a comeback."No worries, Dad," Angela said confidently. This time around, my plan with work. What's more, Lia hates James, even if we choose not to harm James, Lia will still find a way to get rid of him.""Alright, I'm relieved now that I heard this from you, said Turner. He then let out a long breath.The following day, at Life Long Collectible."What did you say? Move the auction to harmony hotel?" Exclaimed Henry. As soon as he heard James's remark, he got up from the sofa. He was in shock. "Mr. Mi
That's true, Potter nodded and said, "Mr. Daniel's men didn't appear in these two auctions held by Whizystems.Daniel loves adapting to other people's tastes. Lia sat down and calmly raised her coffee cup again. He has long known that Dad likes this emerald gem."So, Jordan will make sure he wins the bid for this gem as he intends to present it as a birthday gift.Soon after, Lia's cell phone rang."The day after tomorrow?" Lia's beautiful eyes lit up."That's right." Angela was on the other end of the line. She glanced at Ava, who was making arrangements in the hotel, and said, "But Whizystems has sent over their top security team. Other than that, Daniel's men are here too.""What? Daniel? The smile on Lia's face faded away. "What's going on? Since when is James close to Daniel?""I'm not sure James is close to Daniel. Angela looked at the security guards in black who were patrolling the corridor. "But I can tell that Daniel is closely related to Whizystems, I'm afraid it will be ha
"Angela, we have to get rid of James," said Allen with gritted teeth.I know that too, Angela closed her eyes feeling helpless. "But you also know that he has Leo backing him. We can't take him down so easily.Even if we can't take James down, we can't let Ava have her way at the company. Allen slammed his fist on the table, otherwise, our family will never get out of this predicament.""Don't worry m This time we have Lia helping us. They won't be any surprises.James and Ava worked until a little past nine at night before walking out of Harmony Hotel. Both of them were starving. Hence, they went to a restaurant to have dinner before heading back to heaven's mansion.After dinner, James walked to the front desk to pay the bill. Just as he was taking his wallet out to pay, Leo called him.James quickly took out his bank and put it on the table before walking to the restaurant entrance.When the cashier saw the bank card James had put on the table, she gasped in surprise.What is it?"
"I ran away from home back then because I refused a business marriage that my parents had arranged for me," James admitted sincerely.At the engagement party, I showed everyone our marriage certificate. I swore I would never marry anyone other than you."My parents were enraged claiming that I was an embarrassment to the family. My father was so angry that he cut all ties with me, and as a result I left the house."I have not returned in the last three years. My family recently learned that I am not doing well, so they sent me my previous bank cards, which included this black card.James was only able to share that much.He couldn't reveal the whole truth to Ava because the timing wasn't right. In the future, he would tell her in specifics.Ava appeared to have accepted James' explanation at this point. It was true that the Miller family had never sent anyone in the last three years since the two of them got married."Your parents are so cruel..." How could they not have looked for yo
"What did you say?" James expression darkened."Listen, everyone to stay where they are supposed to be and have someone close all the hotel entrance and exits. I will be there as soon as possible.James had given such instructions because was concerned that the incident would excarbate the situation, giving the perpetrators to take actions."James..." Ava called out anxiously."Ava, you go to the auction hall and do your best to stabilize the situation there," James said quickly as he dashed to the auction item's storage room.Ava didn't waste anytime and rushed to the auction hall.Angela stood on the side looking at the back figures of the busy couple, and raised her brows smugly."Allen, hurry up James is on his way here. Angela dialed her brothers phone number and said.Don't worry Angela, Allen replied firmly.When James arrived, he discovered that the alleged explosion had been caused by a beer bottle that hsd been ignited by fire."Mr Miller..." Henry muttered while James stood
"Ava, investigate this matter thoroughly after you go back. As long as you are the general manager of Harmony Hotel, you must do your job well and avoid any further problems. Are you clear?""Yes, Grandpa, Ava replied loudly.Jackson moves was beyond everyone's expectations.Angela's smile froze.Allen clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, but he didn't dare to lash out in front of Jackson."Dad, you..." Blake was about to say something, but Jackson interrupted him before he could finish saying what he intended to say."There's no need for further discussion. All of you stop making me worry so much," he said motioning to his son's and grandchildren.After speaking, Jackson stood up and walked away holding his cane.Alright, let's us go too." Blake could not help but mock, "Joseph you are so lucky to have found such a good son in law.He is no more relying on women but on other wealthy people. Uncle Blake his is not just relying on someone rich, but also powerful." Angela could not

Although Jeffery heard that the Peter’s organization had collapsed, he was still very stubborn. He said, "James, I don't care if you are a useless piece of trash or Mr. Miller. When my backing comes, you'll definitely die." He just finished saying it. Then a group of men entered through the entrance of the hotel. When a male assistant who was in front of the group stopped walking, a video call was made to James’s cell phone. As james looked at the number, he raised his eyebrows and had a disdainful expression on his face."Davis..." James called and looked at the large television screen above him and nodded. "Yes, Mr. Miller." Davis understood immediately.Immediately, a familiar figure appeared on the television screen. The man was wearing an exquisitely designed and well-cut suit. His hair was neatly combed and he was wearing a pair of spectacles with refined gold frames. His eyes were like that of an eagle's; sharp and threatening. He exuded an irresistible and powerful aura from h
"Sure, I will go and carry it out," Tony said politely and hurriedly. "Withdraw all of Jeffery’s money from the Bank." Gracious lit a cigarette and took a deep puff. She blew out a long trail of smoke and continued, "And retrieve his collection of paintings as well.""Ms. Gracious, what are your plans?" Tony heard Gracious instructions and thought that she was planning to run away with all of Jeffery’s valuables and assets and not bothered about whether he was dead or alive."Tony, is this how you think of me?" Gracious walked over, raised her hand and gave him a hard slap. She continued, "Although I spend money and fool around with that gigolo that does not mean I am an ungrateful woman."Jeffery paid for my freedom from a nightelub and married me. I will never forget his kindness."Furthermore, even if I wanted to take everything, do you think that the other three women and their kids would allow that to happen? I'm still aware of my status." Tony covered his cheek and stood by the
"Sure, Mr. Miller," on the other side of the line, Leo answered respectfully. At this instant, Isaac who looked almost unrecognizable due to the beatings, was almost certain that James was not a fake. He was actually from the Miller family. However, he did not understand why James had to reduce himself to a useless piece of trash although he had such a powerful and wealthy background."James, you are really good at faking," Jeffery spoke arrogantly. When he heard his godfather's words, Isaac frowned and thought,"Godfather, godfather, do you know who you have offended?""We are finished, we are finished. This time, godfather is really finished. Even our family would... would also be destroyed."___At Sunshine___"Ms. Gracious... Ms. Gracious... Something has happened! Something disastrous has happened!"The housekeeper went upstairs and opened the bedroom door. At that moment, Gracious and her boy toy were messing around on the bed. Due to the sudden appearance of the housekeeper, Gra
Upon hearing that, Jeffery was completely stunned."James, what did you say?"Isaac had lost all his hopes. He was howling like a mad dog and said, "What makes you think that my godfather will listen to you?He is Jeffery Dick!""No matter... No matter where he is, be it in Sunshine or other places, no one dares to mess with him "Really, Mr. Dick? If what you say is true, why is your godfather kneeling here?"Davis gloated at him. "That is because...Godfather, what are you doing? Please get up! Why do you need to kneel before this piece of useless trash?You..." Isaac did not know how to reply Davis. He started wailing and shouting at Jeffery.Before Isaac finished his sentence, James pulled the trigger suddenly. The bullet brushed past his ear and hit a statue in the center of the lobby of the hotel. The bullet that came out of the gun hit the statue directly on its head.A loud bang was heard when the statue's head broke into half.Then the statue fell on the ground and broke into
Jeffery's body cringed as he felt the pain after James kicked him. However, very quickly, two members in the black camo suits came between two of them."James..." Jeffery tried to bear the pain in his body and covered his face. He wanted to save face and give himself a last trace of pride. He scoffed, "Don't think I am scared because of what you had planned and arranged!""Let me tell you! I... I am not afraid. I started making a living when I was 12 years old. I had to fight my way through, and I have seen so many bloody fights, confrontations and upheavals. I got through them all. Do you think I will be defeated today?""If you let me off today, we will talk it out. I will also forget that this matter had ever happened." Although Jeffery did not know who James really was, he already had a taste of what he was capable of. Now, he was trapped and unable to do anything. He had to do some sweet talk and get out of this humiliation.If not, he would not be able to survive in Sunshine or
"An armed car?"Jeffery's eyes were wide open."Mr. Dick, be careful!" As a piece of broken glass was about to pierce into Jeffery's neck, one of his men jumped in front of him to protect him.Then the armored car charged in. It was well equipped, and the members of the team dressed in black cami suits had live ammunition.Jeffery was in a state of shock. His men could not move at all when they saw the members of the team in black camo suits.Jeffery had been in many confrontations and fights all his life. However, he had never seen such a powerful and imposing battle array.Before he could come back to his senses, he felt whirlwind coming his way."Is that a... plane?" One of his men pointed to a big piece of open space. They saw a few planes that had landed there. "Not just planes, they are fighter planes... No, no, no, they should be combat aircraft." One of the men corrected him.After hearing "combat aircraft," the lobby was filled with sounds of things hitting the ground.Jeffer
"What are you talking about?" Jeffery gave this man one tight slap. "Of course, we have to save Isaac, but we need to deal with James and Davis.""Yes, Mr. Dick," All his men lowered their heads and roared in unison. As the sky got darker,Jeffery’s men finally found out where James was. "James was at his former residence. It is one of the Millers properties. The latest news is that Davis and James are now in the Hotel in the southern district.""Miller’s organization?" Jeffery squinted his eyes and snorted, "Leo has really done a lot. Just because James had saved his son, he actually allowed them to hide in one of his houses."Jeffery had investigated earlier on that James was the Bailey’s family's useless son-in-law. Then he had the backing and support of Leo to become the man with power and status today.After knowing all these, he despised James even more."What are we waiting for?Let's go." Jeffery drank the red wine from the glass and said, "Today I want James to beg like a dog
