"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 at the two security guards and yelled angrily, "You idiot! Do you know who he is? How dare you be so rude to him?!"

Mr. Miller, I'm so sorry for what they did! Are you alright?" After scolding them, Leo apologized to James with a smile.

Leo called him Mr. Miller?

Sophia and Mr. Johnson were so dumbfounded.

Wasn't he just a delivery man?

He looked just like a poor loser. Why was Leo being so respectful towards him?

"Mr. Meyer, are you mistaken? This guy is just a delivery man. He was trying to break into our company just now, so..." However, Leo interrupted Sophia with a shout before he could finish speaking.

"Shut up!" Leo was furious and glared at her coldly.

Mr. Johnson hurriedly went forward and said flattering, "Mr. Meyer, please don't be angry. Just let me handle it. I'll chase him out right away."

At this time, James couldn't help but sigh. The snobs are always conceited. There's nothing I can do to change this fact."

"What nonsense are you talking about? How dare you be so rude in front of our CEO?" Mr. Johnson ordered the security guard next to him again, "Take him out. Hurry up!"

"Guys." Before the security guards could do anything, Leo pointed at Sophia and Mr. Johnson, instructing, "Throw these two idiots out! Don't allow them to step into our company from now on."

Mr. Meyer, why? What have we done?" Mr. Johnson was shocked when he heard that he was fired.

"Mr. Meyer, we didn't do anything wrong. It's all because..." Sophia was still trying to blame James at this time.

Prick up your ears and listened carefully," Leo said with a serious look as he pointed at James. "This is Mr. Miller, Sir Miller's son, the only heir of our company."

Mr. Miller, is it fine if I deal with them like this?" Leo bent down and smiled again.

"Not bad." James raised his eyebrows.

Mr. Johnson and Sophia looked at each other. Soon, they realized that they had made a huge mistake.

So, this young man was not a poor loser. He was indeed a big shot!

"Mr. Miller, I'm sorry. Please forgive this time," Sophia and Mr. Johnson said in unison.

Unfortunately, it was too late.

"Leo, don't just stand there! Throw them out," James said indifferently. Then, he puts his hands into his pockets and headed upstairs.

"Throw them out!" Leo repeated the instruction to the security guards and quickly followed James.

They went to the CEO's office on the top floor.

"Leo, you are living quite comfortably now." Looking at the exquisite furniture in the office, James said with a deeper meaning in his words, "I see you are doing quite well as the CEO of this company.

Leo did not answer James. Instead, he took a document from the tall and beautiful secretary beside him, placing it in front of James. Then, he said with a respectful smile, "Mr. Miller, please sign your name here on this document."

"Sign my name?" James scratched the back of his head, pushed the document to the side, and pretended to be confused. "What paper do I have to sign? I came here to ask for your help, as long as you..."

"No, I am not going to help you unless you sign the paper," Leo said as he put the document on the desk again.

"Leo, how dare you?"

James was furious. He slammed the desk and stood up.

"Mr. Miller, I'm not making things difficult for you." Leo pointed at the document in front of him and said, "You agreed to inherit your family assets not long ago. Why are you changing your mind now?"

"Leo, you've got guts, huh? How dare you scold me now?" James glared at Leo angrily.

"Mr. Miller, even if you ask me to scold you, I would never dare to do it." Since he couldn't force him, Leo started to use a softer approach. "You know what? To me, you are always a capable and intelligent person. Most importantly, you are a man of your words and actions."

"Don't try to flatter me. I'm telling you, I'll not sign today. I'll never sign it unless I'm dead!" James continued to speak harshly.

However, though he had refused a hundred times, James finally gave in. He signs the documents in the end.

"Congratulations, Mr. Miller! You have officially become the legal successor of the Miller family. Leo's wrinkled face revealed a happy smile as he had fulfilled his wish. "I'll report the good news to Sir Miller later and let everyone know it soon!.

Leo, have you heard about Cartier?" James raised his eyebrows and asked as he drank the coffee that Leo had personally made.

"Yeah, I know." Leo respectfully handed him the tissue and continued, "Mr. Miller, Cartier is one of the subsidiary companies under our cooperation. If you are interested, I will ask Mr. Alex, the CEO of Cartier, to visit you personally."

What?

Cartier belonged to his family!"

It seemed that Sir Miller had been developing their family business quite well over these years. If James had known it quite earlier, he would have returned quite earlier to inherit his family business.

"There's no need for that." James waved his hand and said, "For the time being, I don't want others to know my actual identity. Let's keep it a secret for a while."

"You just need to tell Mr. Alex to ask a bastard named Mr. Parker to withdraw a lawsuit against Ava and apologized to her.

"What? This bastard offended Mrs. Miller?" Hearing what James said, James was furious again.

Over these years, sir Miller had paid close attention to James, although he had cut off his connections with his family.

Moreover, sir Miller is quite fond of Ava his daughter-in-law.

"I'll leave the rest to you." James finished the coffee in his cup, stood up, and walked towards the door.

Mr. Miller, don't worry, I'll handle it properly. Staring at James back, Leo still wanted to ask him a question. He shouted, "When are you returning home to visit sir Miller?"

"We'll see." James casually waved his hand without even turning his head.

As soon as James left, Leo called sir Miller excitedly." Hello, sir Miller! Good news! Mr. Miller has finally signed it."

"That's great. We finally settled it," a hoarse weak voice came from the other end of the phone.

When James returned to the hospital. He was surprised to see...

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."

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

In comparison with Allen, Bella was harsher when she insulted and mocked James.

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?"

    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!

    Just then, Oliver walked forward and took out his business card. He handed it to Robert and said, "Mr. Meyer, my name is Oliver Cooper. This is my business card. I can understand how you feel. But today is Mrs. Bailey's birthday. Could you please let us finish the meal here? I'll pay a visit to you to show my gratitude." Mr. Robert took the business card and looked at it. He glanced at James and nodded. "Fine. Now that it's her birthday, I should not make things difficult for you on such a big day. You can have the room." He winked at James and left. Apparently, he agreed just because of James. But people didn't think so. After that, they gave Oliver compliments. "Oliver you're awesome. Young and wonderful! You've good manners. No wonder he said yes!" "Yeah. If James hadn't done that, he might have been harshly treated." I think Oliver's business card worked. He knew Oliver's identity, so he wanted to make friends with Oliver. Oliver agreed with them, but he just waved his hand

    "James, are you bent on making me die today?" Fumed Amelia, who was still defending Oliver. "You don't have the means and still dare to falsely accuse Oliver." "She's right James, you're out of line today, reproached the other guests. They all reprimanded him. Ava glared angrily at James too after seeing how angry her mother was. "James, apologize to Amelia now," urged Joseph. If James continued insisting like this, things could turn ugly. James understood he was a loser in their eyes. No matter how he tried to explain, nobody would believe him. He was also too lazy to explain. "Mom, I'm sorry," said James very reluctantly. But Amelia refused to accept his apology. "Follow me out," said an angry-looking Ava. She exploded the moment they stepped out of the VIP room. "James, you've utterly embarrassed me today," fumed Ava. It's been a long time since mom was happy and you've ruined it. James felt very helpless when he saw how angry his wife was. He pursed his lips. They was n

    "I didn't step in to help your legal case because of Oliver Cooper. I was asked by Mr. Meyer," said Mr. Fuller. The smile on Oliver's face froze immediately when he heard those words. The mood in the room also turned awkward and stifling. "If there's nothing else, I'll hang up," said Mr. Fuller. Since nobody responded, he ended the call. "Mr. Fuller?" Repeated Joseph. He asked with a frown, "Who's he?" James continued to keep his head down and ate his dinner. His heart was calm like still water. Leo must have arranged this. Just then, the door of the VIP room was pushed open. Carlie horn entered the room with a line of waitresses. They were carrying trays of delicious food and top-quality champagne and red wine. "Are you Mrs. Bailey?" Asked Carlie with a huge smile. She conducted herself in a prim and proper manner. "Yes, I am," said Amelia, looking puzzled. She had no idea what was going on. Carlie gave a slight nod and all the gifts were placed on the table. "Mrs. Bailey,

    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."

    "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.

    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 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.

    "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."
