Every time he met allen, Allen would think of ways to make things difficult for james, trying his best to belittle and humiliate him.
"hi, Allen." james composed himself and walked up to greet him.
"James." allen, in a decent suit, walked over. his voice filled with mockery and arrogance as he said, "if you are a man, go and beg your father-in-law. perhaps, ava's parents can help you with the medical fees.
"that's not necessary. as for the hospital expenses, i'm gonna fix it soon." james forced a smile
"alright. since you live a poor life, i'll do you a favor and pay it." after that allen took out a luxury brand wallet from his pocket, casually pulled out a card, and handed it to the nurse at the cashier desk
"i'll pay with my card.
unlike her attitude a few minutes ago, the nurse attended to the hospitalization procedures with a sweet smile
James couldn't help but allow himself a wry smile inwardly. he thought, "do i have to be despised just because i'm poor?
"let's go." Allen raised his head and looked upstairs. he said mockingly, "come with me. go upstairs and visit your wife. don't worry. uncle and aunt won't make things difficult for you with me around.
James could not be bothered to argue with this fellow. if allen lost his temper, he would talk nonsense and scold anyone around him like a mad dog
however, as soon as they arrived at the ward, james learned the cause of ava's injury
"Ava, i asked you to have dinner with mr jack, the manager of Cartier, to obtain the order of 150,000 dollars from him." allen who was standing by ava looked down at her and scolded her disdainfully
he just wanted to have a drink with you. but you hit his head with the bottle!
hearing that, james was dumbfounded, and soon he understood what had happened
the truth was that ava, his wife, was sexually harassed
he had met mr. parker from Cartier, and he knew that fat man was a leecher
"Allen, it was not ava's fault. after all, she's a woman..." amelia tried to defend her daughter, but she failed to do so
"Aunt Amelia, she was the one who requested to work at the company. if you think she can do whatever she wants just because she's a woman, "why don't you ask her to stop working and be a housewife. after that, allen glanced at James again, who was standing with his head lowered
"oh! i almost forgot that your son-in-law is a househusband. tsk tsk! if your daughter and son-in-law are both unemployed, they must have to live off you and uncle!
"Darrien! that's enough." ava raised her head with displeasure, her pale face darkened. 'i made the mistake, and i'll take responsibility for it.
"what? you'll take responsibility?" Allen sneered again. "how are gonna do it? Ava, there's something you need to know. mr. parker has sued you!
"what?" Amelia widened her eyes in panic upon hearing that
"Allen, do not shoot off your mouth if you are unsure about it." joseph's face turned pale as he heard it
"Uncle Joseph, i'm not talking nonsense!" allen looked at the bailey family with his nose in the air. he said proudly, "grandpa said that Ava should be responsible for it since she caused this trouble.
"how come she's the one who should take responsibility?" Amelia was furious. Ava met Mr. Parker at dinner for the sake of the company! now, something like this happened and you guys just want to stay out of it. do you think my family means nothing to Jackson Bailey
"no matter what, Ava is Jackson's granddaughter. Jackson can't leave her in the dark.
"Aunt Amelia." allen raised his brows again, his face full of contempt and disdain. "please don't try to threaten me with grandpa. think about it. between Ava and the Bailey Group, which one will he choose?
"you..." amelia's face darkened in anger, but she lost her words
after he said what he said, allen opened the door and walked out. before he left, he did not forget to mock james again
"James, if you want to be a man, you'd better help your wife fix this." as he spoke Allen's eyes darkened. then, he said with a hint of malice, otherwise, she would have to be kicked out of the Bailey group.
Allen's smugness made it difficult for james to calm down. however, there was nothing he could do
expecting that her mother would say something even worse to james later, Ava deliberately asks james to buy something to eat downstairs so that he could avoid it
however, the moment James stepped out of the door, he heard the sound of a glass smashing to the ground
"Joseph, you useless! why did i marry a good for nothing like you? i was stupid! everyone thought i was lucky to become the daughter-in-law of the Bailey family, but who would know that i've been living a hard life
"you're all Jackson's sons, but Blake and Turner are the managers in the company, and they have a lot of shares. even your two sisters live in high-end apartments. but you can only stay in the old villa!
Joseph was a typical, meek husband. facing amelia's fury, he could only lower his head, not daring to make a sound
hearing that, james could not help but mock himself in his heart. "that's right. we useless men always end up like this.
after venting her anger on her husband, Amelia sat on the ground in a rage and threatened ava, "ava, you're still young. i can't bear to see you live your life in the wrong way. promise me. divorce james tomorrow!I""."?..."..""?".."""..!.."..."".".."" Promise me. Divorce James tomorrow!"
Amelia said, neither you nor your talent was worse than Allen. What happened to you now was all because you went against your grandfather's wish." James, who was still outside the door, became nervous and his heart, beat rapidly when he heard that. "Mom," Ava said firmly, no matter what you say, I will never divorce James." "Ava, are you crazy? Why are you staying with that loser? Can't you give him up?" Amelia stood up angrily from the ground and grabbed Ava's shoulder, saying, "You're being sued now, but your grandfather doesn't care! You might go to jail." "Then so be it. I'm not afraid," Ava raised her head and said firmly. "That's insane! You're crazy..." Amelia shook her head with a bitter smile. She has always believed that her daughter wanted a divorce from James the most, but it turned out that she was wrong. James also felt his wife's firmness was unexpected. After their honeymoon phase was over, they had been living a hard life. And James had thought that he was a bur
Soon, James took a taxi to the office building of Miller's organization. This building that towered over the clouds was known as the number one Skyscraper in Sunshine. Miller's organization and the other three listed companies were all among the international top 500 companies, and they were ranked in the top 10. Furthermore, the business of Miller's organization involved a wide range of industries, including real estate, logistics, film, clothing, and so on. The Miller family had owned or invested in most of the outstanding companies in this field. In short, this family was wealthy. As soon as James entered the hall, he saw a person that he was familiar with. It was Henry. He was James' best friend over these years. After they both quit their previous jobs, Henry joined a delivery company and became a delivery man. "Hen..." James was just about to call out to him when he saw a woman in a black suit dress reprimanding Henry. "You have messed up my order, and you dare to ask me
"Leo, I was stopped by two watchdogs in your company. I'll give you two fucking minutes. Otherwise, I will leave." Hearing what James said on the phone, Sophia laughed even more exaggeratedly and said, "This idiot is so funny! He's good at acting, isn't he? Haha, I'm so amused!" Mr. Johnson could not be polite any longer. He lifted his chin at Sophia and signaled her to continue calling security. After all, Miller's organization was one of the top 500 companies in the world. The reception hall represented the image of the company. They could not allow such trash to appear and cause a scene. Soon, the security guards rushed over. Just as they were about to kick James out, a voice sounded from inside. "Stop it!" Leo ran out of the elevator with his secretary and shouted angrily. James was the only heir of the company. After much persuasion, he was finally willing to come home and inherit his family business. But these fools stopped him from coming in! "Let go of him!" Leo glared
Oliver Cooper sitting on a chair by Ava's bed. He and ava were talking and laughing, looking very close. Oliver was his classmate from university, and he always had feelings for Ava. Ever since James married Ava, he had become a thorn in Oliver's flesh. After Oliver graduated, he opened a cultural company with the fund provided by his father. He seemed to be doing quite well and always showed off his wealth on I*******m to express his superiority. "Oliver, what are you doing here?" James asked with displeasure. "I called him to come here," Ava said impatiently. "Ava, take care." James stood up from the chair and smiled at her, saying, "Don't worry! I'll take care of this issue about Cartier." As he turned around, Oliver's smile was different. It was filled with disdain and pride. "Oliver, thank you for helping me," Ava said politely as she watched him leave. James put the sandwich he had bought on the table and asked Ava with a dark face, "Why did you ask him for help?" "What
"I'm just a fucking loser..." Henry sobbed as he mumbled. But James couldn't catch it at all. "Henry, where are you? I'll come over right now." Upon hearing that they seemed to be something, wrong with Henry, James was worried that he would do something stupid. Following the location that Henry had sent him, James soon arrived at Blue ring. Henry was sitting on the stairs with beer cans scattered all around him. It seemed like he already drank quite a lot. "James, I'm so glad that you finally came." Henry was half drunk, his eyes red from crying. It was said that men would not cry unless something big happened to them. When James saw Henry in such depression, he knew something big must have happened. "James... I'm such a fucking coward!" As he spoke, Henry slapped himself on his face. Seeing this, James grabbed his hand and said solemnly, "Hey, bro, just tell me what exactly happened. I'm gonna help you!" "You..." Henry paused for a moment, then quickly shook his head and said,
"Mr. Miller, I'm sorry to keep you waiting," Mr. Ruben lowered his head and bowed, and said with a smile. Mr. Miller? Why did Mr. Ruben call James that way? And why was he so respectful to him? What was going on? Not only was Lucas shocked, but Henry was also taken aback. "Mr. Ruben," James snorted and said, "Looks like these people are doubting my identity. In this case, I think you'll have to explain it." "Who dares to doubt you?" Mr. Ruben put on a solemn face and announced, I'm telling you, from now on, Mr. James Miller is the new boss of Learn intelligence." "Mr. Ruben, are you kidding me?" Lucas sneered as he pointed at James beside the motorcycle. He is just an employee who used to work in our company but was fired. Besides, he's living off his wife. How could he be our boss?" At first, Mr. Ruben did not believe it himself, let alone Lucas. However, Leo had seriously informed him over the phone that James was the heir of Miller's organization, and now he was also the bos
Leo Meyer was the richest man in Sunshine. How could he and James know each other? How was that possible? Bella was Ava's Cousin and Allen's sister. Both Allen and Bella have similar personalities. They both like to flatter the rich and despised the poor. In addition, they both thought that James was a loser. In comparison with Allen, Bella was harsher when she insulted and mocked James. Every time she met James she would use the words such as "a loathsome freak, useless trash, good for nothing, loser, and something along the line to insult him." However, her useless cousin-in-law was currently talking to the richest man in Honor Grave. "Bella, who is he?" The man driving the car asked her curiously. "Drive the car over." Bella was curious as to what was happening. She decided to figure it out. "James, what are you doing?" Bella got out of the car and pretended to be shocked as she covered her mouth before saying, "Mr. Johnson, are you, Mr. Johnson? The Bailey family was at
They didn't invite many people to the birthday party because of the lawsuit issue. They just invited their neighbors and close friends to have a meal in the private room. In the late afternoon, James brought the present to the private room with Ava. Her parents were talking with their friends. "Ava and her husband!" "He looks great! They are a perfect couple!" They greeted Ava and James politely. Amelia was a bit sullen and forced a smile. "Hello, everyone." Ava greeted them politely and hugged Amelia. "Mom, happy birthday. This is the present for you!" Amelia smiled. Her friends said that Ava was a great daughter. James handed Amelia the present too. "Happy birthday." But Amelia treated him differently. She put on a long face. "Put it here." "He is a good man! Mrs. Bailey, you are so lucky to have him as your son-in-law. My son-in-law did nothing for me on my birthday. He just made a call. They have no comparison." "Yeah! Mrs. Bailey, open the box and see what he has got for

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
