Yes, I hear you." Turner nodded a little surprise by Grace's reaction. He had originally expected her to hassle him into helping the Hall family. However, her firm resolve had caught him by surprise. Grace had made it absolutely clear that now was not the time for them to prioritize kinship. She was already in dire straits. She had neither the means nor the energy to worry about them as well. "One more thing," she said anxiously and got back on her feet. She continued, "We must move out as soon as possible. Let's go to our house out of town. We'll lay low for a while and wait till some time to pass before doing anything. What she actually wanted to do was to hide from her own family members. Okay, I'll organize the packing right away. We'll leave as soon as possible." Turner walked briskly upstairs. Grace followed suit and began packing all of her jewelry and clothes into the suitcases. Then, she remembered her eldest daughter, Angela at the Black family. "Hi, listen to me Ang
Everyone was stunned when they heard that.The seat was the exclusive spot for the general manager of the group.Only Turner was qualified to seat there before.It had taken him more than a decade effort to get into that position.However, it took him much shorter to be botted out of his office.Ava was much younger than Turner, yet she managed to reach his position within a year. A year ago, she was just a mid level manager in a subsidiary. Within such a short period, she had already risen to the executive level.From then on, she had become the second most powerful person in the group."Mrs Ava, please take a seat. The chariman's assistant pulled out the chair for Ava respectfully.Ava paused for a second because she knew what this spot meant. Then, she took a deep breath and sat down.The meeting started."Today..." Jackson seriously said, "I have called everyone here today because I have an important announcement to make. It's about a change in the company.From today onwards..."
"Amelia, is he the person you were threatening me wirh?" Kim scoffed when she saw that James had arrived alone. Then, she stomped her stylish high heels and yelled, "I know him. He's your son in law James, the famous loser for being useless. Let me tell you, she reached out her finger with blue polish nails. Then, she hissed evily, "How can you afford this? You're just humiliating yourself! Do you have any idea how expensive this place is?" Every piece of land here is gold. It's supposed to be a community for celebrities like me, not lowlifes like you. They shouldn't have allowed you in. Amelia could not just sit there and allow Kim to scold her. Kim, you shameless bitch! I know you were a mistress when you were young. God knows how many married men you have slept with. We are lowlifes, but we are certainly better than you!" "Who are you calling a mistress?" Kim shouted as she put her hand on her hips. "Amelia, you haven't gotten enough beating just now, right?" Do you want to have
"You're really a big talker, aren't you?" Joshua sneered. He stared at James and said, "What's else have you got other than the two auctions you help Leo with?"What makes you think you can be so presumptuous? You're just an underling! Did Leo not teach you anything about social manners?""Get on your knees now and apologize to my wife." Joshua narrowed his sinister eyes. Then, he ordered in a threatening tone, "Give yourself a hundred slaps.""A hundred slaps?"Ava and others exclaimed, widening their eyes in shock.Joshua was provoking James to his limit."How could you..." Amelia hauled Ava before she could mutter and stand up for Ava."Ava, stop. Don't go over." Amelia firmly held Ava's arm. We can't afford to mess with these people. It was James who slapped Kim, he should be responsible for it."Ava was extremely shocked upon hearing Amelia's words. Mom, are you serious! Didn't James did that for you? How could you turn your back against him now?"You created this big hot mess an
"Are you done making a scene yet?" Ava had already gotten angry when Amelia first started blaming James. Who is the one that caused us to end up in this situation? If not James you two would have already be..." Ava grew more upset as she spoke and took a deep breath. "Mom, Dad, even if you are not thankful towards James, you still can't reprimand him like this in front of so many people, right?" "Ava, you have really grown up now, hm?" Amelia was furious, seeing how her daughter was being protective of James. You are actually speaking up for this loser and yelling at me." I am your mother and I am doing all of these things for you. Plus, it was James who hit the woman. What does it have to do with us? We got hit too. We are also the victims. "Also, you should not anger Joshua. He has connections with everyone, there is that Corey too. He is also trouble. If this matter get out of hand, he will not just been paying some money. We might even go to jail. Ava was about to get a strok
Five or six luxurious cars surrounded the sales department entirely. When Corey turned around, he saw Daniel. The man wore a long black coat and walked in as if he owned the place, holding a cigar between his fingers.Who is the blind guy that doesn't know what's good for him?" Stand before me." When he uttered that intimidating phrase, it was as if the temperature of the building dropped a dozen degree. It was cold enough that people shivered.Corey studied the man. It was the infamous Daniel.He was immediately fearful that he dropped the metal rod.It fell with a clang.The rod spun on the ground and quickly rode in Daniel's direction. He stepped on it and lifted his eyes, staring at the frightened Corey.It's you, little brat?""You... Are you Daniel?" Corey gulped heavily. He stood there frozen like a statue.That is right. Daniel picked up the metal rod, nodding his head he said I am indeed Daniel."Daniel." At that moment, Daniel right hand man, Young ran over. We took care of
"What? Did I say anything wrong?" As he spoke, Daniel called over one of the staff members of the sales department. "So, Ms, he drawled in a slow manner. "Are you worried about getting reported for keeping such a figure on your property?"The female staff bit her lips. She gathered her courage and said, you are right, we are the luxury neighborhood for the rich. We do not welcome people like her.Seeing everyone gazes of mockery and disgust, Kim was about to go crazy with anger.But Joshua definitely understood that James was not a simple man. It was best to end this fiasco as quickly as possible."Mr... Mr Joshua," Joshua said politely with his head lowered. We acted too harshly earlier offended you and your family. My wife and I apologize sincerely to you. It was our mistake.After that, Joshua bowed down to James and the rest.Kim was still stubborn and refused to bow down, "Why should I apologize to them?" She asked, anxious and furious. They were the ones who hit me...But before
"That stupid girl," Amelia Bailey shouted in anger. Did I owe her in previous life or something? And that's why she's here to collect her debt?"Alright, stop your nagging, Joseph muttered, giving in without a fight. If they will not let us by it, then we will not.Your daughter took away that card worth one million dollars. what am I going to use to buy this house?" Amelia had nowhere to vent her anger, so she turned Joseph into her punching bag."What are you waiting?" Hurry up and go home. This is so embarrassing.Two cars drove out of the TiVo Villa neighborhood, one after the other.Ava did not say anything along the way, she just looked out of the window with a somber expression.James spun the steering wheel carefully,he tried to end the awkward atmosphere a few times, but he was not able to succeed.Finally they returned to Haven Villa."James, this card is yours, Ava said in a tone that made them seem unfamiliar and distant. Hold onto it.Ava, what are you doing? James asked,
