"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, "forget it. We are no match for him. I'll just take it that she cheated on me."
"Cheated on you?" After hearing these three words, James immediately thought of Aria, Henry's girlfriend. "Are you saying that Aria..."
It turned out that Henry had accidentally bumped into his girlfriend checking into White Motel with his ex-boss, Lucas Lewis when he was delivering food there today.
"I was so angry that I wanted to beat that bastard up. But later, I realized that I couldn't even afford the medical fees if I injured him. I am just a delivery man!"
How could James just stand by when his best friend had been humiliated like this?
He pulled Henry up from the ground and said calmly, "I will send you home now. Leave the rest things to me. I'll handle it."
"You will handle it?" Henry, who was dead drunk, shook his head and patted James' shoulder
Man, you're having a hard time, and you can't even protect yourself."
"Don't worry. Just leave it to me." After sending him back home, James headed for White Motel.
Knock, knock!
The door to room 2111 opened.
"Can't you just wait a minute?" Aria was dressed in black lingerie and had heavy make-up on. Her hair was down. There were a few love bites on her neck, which were eye-catching.
Aria's eyes suddenly widened with surprise and anger as soon as she saw James at the door.
"James?"
Just as Henry said, Aria was indeed cheating on him. She has slept with this old bastard behind Henry's back.
"Aria, who is it?" A fat man wearing a loose bathrobe walked over, complaining in a hoarse voice, "What damned room service is this? You dared to interrupt us!"
"Oh, so it's you, kid." Lucas sneered and then hugged Aria next to him provocatively. His eyes filled with disdain as he said, "James, are you here to break the debauchery of your friend Henry?"
Lucas was James and Henry's boss in the technology company they used to work in. He was petty and cunning.
"Lucas, you slept with Henry's girlfriend without telling him first. Don't you think you are being somewhat rude?" James's gaze swept over Aria, who was disheveled, his eyes full of disdain.
"Did you say that I'm rude?" Lucas stretched out his hand and tapped James's chest even more, imprudently, saying, "Who do you think you are? You and Henry, one lives off their wife and the other delivers food all around like a wild dog."
"Let me tell you, even if I told him, he can't stop me from sleeping with Aria. Do you know why? Because I have money and power!"
Lucas had worked with the Bailey Group and had interacted with Ava before. He had been eyeing her for a long time.
However, such a beautiful young woman had married a loser like James.
What a pity!
"Henry is just a wretched delivery man while I own property worth millions. How can he compare to me?"
In the past, When James and Henry were employees in that company, Lucas would often scold them harshly. But they endured it to make a living.
However, things were different now. James had inherited his family business.
A small fly with assets worth merely a few million dared to show such an attitude in front of him!
"Get lost! Don't stay here and ruin my mood!" After saying that, Lucas put his arm around Aria and walked in.
As the door was about to close, Aria glared at James.
"Aria, come on, babe! I can't wait any longer..." As he heard the disgusting voice coming from inside, James, who was in a fit of anger, called Leo immediately.
James strode into the elevator and said coldly, "Leo, I want to become the boss of Learn intelligence in ten minutes. Can you do that?"
"No problem, Mr. Miller," Leo replied with a smile.
Five minutes later, James' phone rang again. "Mr. Miller, it is done."
James did not expect Leo to finish these tasks so soon. He nodded in satisfaction.
"Lucas, just wait and see."
"I'll teach you a good lesson!" James said to himself inwardly.
Lucas, who was enjoying himself with Aria in the room, soon received a call. Hello, Mr. Ruben! What is it?"
"Come back to the office immediately. Let's get ready to welcome our new boss."
"Our new boss?" Hearing that, Lucas was stunned.
"Just now, someone paid 10 million and bought learn intelligence," Mr. Ruben told him. "I'm also on my way there now. You should head out now."
"Okay, I got it." After hanging up the phone, Lucas quickly got dressed and went back to the office.
Just as the red carpet has been laid out, James and Henry arrived at the door on a motorcycle used for delivery, leaving a conspicuous mark on it.
"James, it's you again?" Seeing him Lucas was furious.
"That's right. it's James and Henry! What are they doing here?" Most of the staff standing by the side of the carpet were their previous colleagues.
"That is beyond my expectation. The two of them are so miserable now! They are making a living by delivering food!"
"Exactly! It's me, bastard!" James said with confidence as he got off the motorcycle.
"James, are you seeking death?" Just as Lucas was about to strike at him, Mr. Ruben's car arrived.
"Lucas, what are you doing?" Mr. Ruben ask with a dark face as he hurried off his car.
"Mr. Ruben, I'm clearing these undesirable people out to welcome our new boss." Lucas instantly changed his expression and said with a smile.
"James, get lost! Hurry up! And..." Pointing at the red carpet that James and Henry had stepped on, Lucas said, "You've ruined it, you better pay 2,000 dollars for it! Otherwise, I'll not let you two off! Just wait and see!"
However, what happened next shocked everyone.
"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
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 Ava was angry, there was nothing she could do about it. Those were her grandfather's orders so she could not change them. Besides that, she also has to figure out how to explain the situation to her parents. Ava went over to her parent's house. Immediately after arriving, she say on the sofa. She spoke haltingly, "Mom, I got something to tell you. You know... Grandpa has handed the project with Cartier over to Allen. I..." Before Ava could finish, she exploded in anger. "What did you say?" Amelia jumped to her feet in anger. "You clinched that deal! How could that bitch Allen take it?" "No, I have to talk to them about this." "What do you think you're doing?" Asked Joseph. He pulled his wife back frantically, "Dad has already decided. Are you going to argue with him?" "I..." Amelia was stumped after she heard what her husband said. Amelia felt so helpless. "Then... Then is our family doomed to be bullied?" She covered her face with her hands and burst out crying. "Yo
"Mrs. Miller, Mr. Shawn Bailey would like me to inform you to attend the board of directors meeting," said Jane Garcia. The secretary spoke very politely. "Me?" Said Ava. She frowned subconsciously. She was a mere project manager of a branch of the Bailey Group subsidiary company. Her grandfather did not have high expectations of her. Also, she was not part of the main family. Those who were not part of the main family were never called to attend the board of directors meeting. When was she suddenly asked to attend the board of directors meeting? "Yes, Mr. Miller, please hurry over," said Jane urgently. "Alright. I'll be there as soon as possible," replied Ava. She was still puzzled. James saw the perplexed look on his wife's face and asked, "what's wrong?" He pretended not to know anything. "Oh, the assistant from the sales department gave me a call. She told me to attend the board of directors meeting," replied Ava. Then she said worriedly, Do you think something bad happened
