"Ms. Morris, Annie is my woman, after all. Don't you think it's a little rude for you to slap my woman in front of me?" Landon felt Carlie had disrespected him in front of his men. James had no patience to wait any longer. He questioned coldly, "Cut the crap! Tell me where Ava is!" "Humph! Who do you think you are? How dare you speak like that to Landon!" Annie, who Carlie slapped twice, threw her anger on James. She mocked, "I have never thought Ava would have such a young boyfriend. Such a shameless old hag!" "Young boyfriend?" Anger shot through Carlie when Annie humiliated James. However, before she could slap Annie again, someone dashed past her like a wind. James punched Landon's belly and strangled Landon's neck, Landon's arm stuck behind. Landon's face flushed red, then turned purplish. He had difficulty catching his breath. "Tell me, where is she?" James clenched his teeth and asked. "Boy, do you know who I am?" Landon coughed and warned James. James strangled harde
"What's the matter?" Landon shouted, annoyed about the sudden interruption."Bo... Boss, someone brought a few bulldozers. They are outside now," the man stammered and pointed outside."Carlie's phone rang after the man said that."Yes..." Carlie answered the call with a simple reply. Then, she looked at James and said, "Mr. Miller, our men are here."James carried his wife and said coldly, "Ask them to start destroying this building. Crush it into dust. This place doesn't need to exist."Landon and Annie's faces turned pale immediately when they heard James asking his men to demolish the club into dust."Heh! Stop boasting." Noah covered his bleeding head and said, "Bulldozers?" James, don't forget that you are still in the building. You'll be dead if you destroy this building.""Annie, you can ignore this loser." He does not even have a job to support himself and relies on his wife's salary. He would not dare destroy this building even if you ask him to do it.""Do you know why? It
"What else do you want?" James looked up. He had an exceptionally calm expression. Noah pointed at the wound on his head and said, "James, for what you did to me just now, I'll pay you back many times over." "I dare you!" Carlie said angrily, though she was held, hostage. She was struggling anxiously too "Don't move," Landon tightened his grips on her with his arms. Carlie could hardly breathe and her face had turned red. David, you... You do not need to worry about me. Bring Ava and the rest of them out of here, "Carlie said with much difficulty. "That is not going to happen!" Noah said, in a more arrogant tone than before. Then he poured himself a glass of wine. "No one can leave beside David's men." "That's right, Landon. They came to our club today to create trouble and messed up our club. They even brought along a bulldozer," said Annie who appeared again, after she saw that the tables were turned. "If we don't teach them a lesson and win this round, how can we face anyone
James was so indifferent and cold that he did not even look at Noah and Landon."Carlie, I need your help to bring Ava out of the room.""Don't worry about that, James. "I'll take good care of Ava," Carlie replied softly.Then, she arranged for two helpers to bring Ava out of the room.In the VIP room, Noah and Landon were kneeling on the floor with their heads lowered. They did not dare to retaliate."James, I have activated all the bodyguards from the company to be stationed here. Nothing and no one can get out of here unless they have your permission," David pocketed his phone and reported to James who had settled himself on the couch.David threw a glance at Landon who was still on his knees. He said, "I warned earlier not to plot anything against James.""Ja... James, I have done wrong! I did not know who I was messing with. I was just fooling around and did not mean any harm. You are the bigger man who doesn't bear grudges," Landon said and started slapping himself on his cheeks
"Landon... Landon, you cannot do this to me. If not, my father will not let you off," Noah said, as he was shivering and begging for help. "I can give you money, Landon, as long as you let me go. No matter how big the amount you ask, I can give it all to you." However, no matter how much he pleaded with him, Landon was indifferent and did not give him any response. He knew that if he became soft-hearted and let Noah off today, he would not be able to survive. "James... James. I have made a serious and stupid mistake. I should not have treated you like that," Noah pleaded with James. It was apparent that Noah had no idea how powerful and rich James' background was. "I... I'm a loser. I live off women. it's all my fault... I'm worse than an animal," he started smacking himself on the face too. "James, if I knew who you are, I would not have dared to..." Suddenly, Landon swung the baseball bat in his hand. A horrifying scream pierced through the atmosphere of the VIP room. Noah
"Exactly!" Angela echoed."What do you mean Angela? Are you insinuating that my daughter was asking for it?" Amelia shouted at her, throwing her a fierce stare at the same time."Amelia, why must you use such unpleasant words?" Noah was her ex-schoolmate. If I were him, I would also take the opportunity to do something, said Allen, who laughed in a lewd manner."He went on, "Actually I thought he had a higher chance of success but unfortunately, he did not get what he wanted and Ava ended up here.""Ava is fine," James shot back after hearing their disgusting conversation."Fine?" James, I didn't know that other than being a loser, you also like to be cuckolded."When they heard the word "cuckolded", both Amelia and Joseph opened their eyes wide.They had a question burning within them."Had our daughter been..." They wondered in fear."I saved her," James said with a serious tone."You saved her? James, have you not looked at yourself in the mirror? You seriously think that a loser l
"I have received it." Jackson Bailey nodded.Having heard the news, Angela and Allen widened their eyes in shock as if they have been hit by a bolt of lightning.How did things turn out so different from what has been arranged?Wilson took a look at the stunned siblings. He then said, "The price that Ava offered matched our company's requirements, and we were happy to reach an agreement."However, Mr. Jackson Bailey, now that my nephew is beaten to a pulp, don't you people think you owe us an explanation?""Mr. Jackson Bailey." Alexander said furiously, "I know that the Bailey Group is a major company, but the Taylor's family are not weaklings that you can walk all over either. It's bad enough that you guys are fighting among yourselves, but my son was even dragged into your mess. Where's your conscience?"Angela could tell that Wilson and Alexander were trying to put all the blame on her brother and herself.Grandpa was convinced that Allen and Angela were guilty of these crimes. In
"kneel and apologize.""Turner, what are you saying?" Jackson Bailey was equally surprised by his eldest son's startling behavior.He had initially settled the issue.But Turner came out of nowhere at a crucial moment.Alexander took the chance to retaliate by retorting ruthlessly, "Turner, so you finally admit is Allen's fault. Do you think I will let this go just because you've slapped your son a few times?""Let me tell you something. My son is still lying in the intensive care unit."Simultaneously, Amelia, whose face was still wet retaliated with vigor."Turner, my daughter is currently unconscious as well." Amelia pointed at Ava, who was lying on the hospital bed, and said, "You must give us an explanation regarding what happened today.""Uncle Turner," James, who had been standing in a corner, spoke casually, "Allen, just told us that he has nothing to do with this. That this is all our fault."Turner gave James a meaningful look and gritted his teeth before turning around and
