"A tough ground to dig?" Are you telling me Miller Group can't take on that tiny store?" James said.No, Mr Miller, you've misunderstood me. That's not what I meant. Leo was trying to give out the best explanation."Then what do you mean?" James recalled what happened at his mother in law's house and vented his anger at Leo. Are you telling me you can't handle this matter?"No, Mr Miller, what I'm trying to say is that Peter's company partnered with a company under Martin family a month ago, and Ms martin is currently the person in charge of the project, just so you know she is now the biggest shareholder of Peter's company."Are you talking about Martin Luna?" James quickly figured out who Leo was talking about.He understood he had a score to settle with that woman.Luna has been low key for years, but she started stirring up troubles when James returned to take over his family business.Things aren't as simple as they appear to be.You are right, although I'm not sure when she came
"He is my friend," added Ava in a more serious tone.At this, May weather had no choice but to let go.After being freed, Isaac glared at May. "Don't you have eyes to see who I am?How dare you touch me? Are you tired of living?""Isaac, he's my bodyguard,said Ava. Don't be angry.Isaac had a sudden realization that he had lost his gentlemanliness in front Ava, and so his expression calmed down. Ava, that's not what i meant. I just..."As Isaac was speaking he rushed forward and held Ava in his arms. Ava, I just miss you so much. You know, during the years I was abroad, I missed you everyday.May who was watching on the side was dumbstruck.What the?What's was going on?Mrs Miller is being hugged by another man.May was worried that he would be skinned alive if James found out.He would most certainly got a beating.Thankfully, Ava pushed Isaac away quickly. She gave an awkward smile and changed the subject. You know Isaac, when did you come back?"Three days ago, said isaac. He look
James was stopped at the restaurant entrance."What are you doing here? Don't you know the rules?" Asked the restaurant female manager. She had heavy makeup and waa staring at James with disdain. Do you know what place is this?"James raised his eyebrows and said impatiently, "I'm looking for someone."Looking for someone?" She looked at James from head to toe and said, don't mess with me. Who could you be looking for? Get lost now! Or I will call the security.A waitress had joined them quietly. Ms Dean, she whispered in the managers ear, he's the husband of the woman in the video. I think he's here to cause trouble.Ms Dean eyed James again and said impatiently, Listen, someone has reserved this entire restaurant today, so, the person you are looking for is not here. Please leave now.I'm not wasting my breath on you said James. He did not want to waste his time on the manager who looked down on him. The only thing on his mind was to see his wife as soon as possible.And the manager
When Ava got angry, even James was afraid of her."Isaac, James is my husband. Ava face turned cold and she lowered her voice, "If you call him a loser, then you are calling me a loser too.Isaac had been focusing on insulting James that he had not noticed Ava's changed of expression."Ava, that's not what I meant. Isaac quickly tried to explain. Actually, I asked you out today because I have some business to discuss with you."I know the Bailey Group has encountered some problems with your new projects overseas. I happen to have a project on hand that can help you."The new project?" Ava's expression softened a little when she heard that.It was true that the new project had been rather pressing on her way back from abroad, Ava had been thinking hard about how to deal with it."Ava, why didn't you tell me that the new project was facing problems?" Asked Ava with a frown."Are you crazy?" Isaac scoffed at James question. Then he shamelessly sneered at James again. "Why should Ava tel
However, Isaac still didn't understand was going on.He didn't care about how powerful Lucas was. He was not afraid."Mr Miller, are you satisfied now? Lucas looked up at James and asked.Let her go, replied James as he looked down at Ms Dean, who was kneeling on the floor.She was like an ant and was not worth his time."James, just you wait," said Isaac who was still nursing a bloody nose. "This matter isn't over yet. He still sounded arrogant. And then isaac turned around and left.Motherfucker, Lucas raised his cane and was about to go after Isaac but was held back by James."Let him go," James said coldly. There is still plenty of time.James had other considerations. No matter how arrogant Isaac had been today, he was still Ava's friend.James knew how softhearted his wife, if he had beaten up Isaac coldly today, his wife would most likely be upset.And James would earn the reputation of being a cruel man.His relationship with his wife might even fall apart because of an outsid
"Yes, the doctors face was turning red, and he was starting to have difficulty breathing, could you let go off me now?""Oh, James suddenly remembered that he was still grabbing the doctors collar and released his grip. He laughed sheepishly and said, "I'm so sorry, doctor. When you just sighed just now, I became super anxious.Young man, I sighed it's because you have been too careless. The doctor rubbed his neck before continuing, she's almost four months pregnant and still she isn't taking care of her body."Four months already?" James eyes widened in surprise.The doctor look suspeciously at James expression. What kind of husband are you? How could you not know your wife pregnant?" He shouted.And remember, you wife's body is a little weak. She passed out today because she has been exhausting herself out and also due to huge waves of emotions.The first trimester is very critical. You must pay more attention to your wife's health."Got it, said James. He held the doctors hand and
If you have time, please visit your father, Leo said to James with a sigh. "You should know that his health is getting worse."Alright, I got it, said James as he nodded his head. After I have settled things with the Bailey Group, I will visit him with Ava.Anyways, if there is nothing else, I'm hanging up. Then James hung up and went downstairs. He brought the chicken soup prepared by the housekeeper cook to Ava.Ava could not help but laugh at the way James fed her the chicken soup. You don't have to do that, I will feed myself."The doctor said that the first three months were the most important ones. We can't afford to be careless," said James. He was treating her like a princess. Whenever I thought of your recent overseas trip, I would feel scared. When James mentioned the business trip, Ava felt a headache. She said, I'm not worried about our baby, but I'm more worried about the new project."James,I can't stay at home throughout the pregnancy. And then Ava became very anxious a
Ava was shocked by her mother's slap.The assistant had heard some noise coming out from the office, so she quickly opened the door and went inside the office. She was just in time to hold Ava.Ms Ava, are alright? The assistant asked nervously.Ava did not reply but her face was very pale and she looked weak.However, Amelia heart did not softened at the sight of her daughter looking so pale."I have already said all that I should. If you don't agree, then we will cut ties. After giving her ultimatum, Amelia left without looking back."Ms Ava, you don't look too good. Shall I send you to the hospital? The assistant watched as Amelia left. She did not know what had happened between Ava and her mother. She was very shocked.I'm fine, said Ava as she waved her hand. There's still another meeting later. Why don't you help me to the sofa? I will be okay after lying down a bit.The moment, Amelia stepped out of the Bailey Group, she ran into Daniella."Hi Amelia, what a coincidence, greete
