Ava was still holding James' hands tightly outside the window. She asked gently, "Did they do anything to you while you were in there?""No," James briefly replied and smiled."Oh, god, don't lie to me. you look like a twig now." Ava pursed her lip, with tears filling her eyes.Good gracious, no way. How can I turn into a twig in just a single night?" Said James, shaking his head."Those people last night, I...""You see that?" Joseph shook his head tracing Amelia's line of sight as she fumed. Those two are getting along really fine. The way I see it, there's no breaking them off.""Humph!" Amelia felt like she was about to explode.Not only did her plan of setting up James go south, but the man himself almost blew her cover. The more she thought about it, the more frustrated she got."James, do you think that you can just simply write off everything that happened last night?" Amelia burst out of her room, running outside. "I'm telling you. Ava might say that she's okay, but that does
The next day at Lilo's cafe."Amelia?" Daniella took a sip of her coffee and smiled, looks like James is a scheming prick, handing over the keys to the house and the car right in front of your husband and Ava, and then going about that till death do us part bullshit and all."Ava was all touched while you and Joseph looked like the bad guys instead."Hmph... Scheming? Him?" Amelia scoffed at the notion of it. "You know what that guy is like, a loser through and through. As if anyone will buy that bullshit about him earning big bucks by playing with shares."It's all still Ava's money in the end. I'm not going to let him have his way. I don't care what he would do with that money he claimed to be his."Daniella, you know that I considered you to be one of my own, right?" Amelia continued, "Well, Joseph and I should have celebrated Ava's move to her new place, but that shit with James happened. There's nothing we could do about it, I guess.Daniella was rather bemused by what she said.
"Ava, don't say that, your Aunt is just trying to help you out here." Amelia got sullen right away when she saw James arrive. "What are you doing here?""Is this a place that a shameless piece of shit like you could come?"James paid no heed to his mother-in-law's insult, smiling faintly as he replied, "I'm just trying to give Ava some soup."Soup?" Amelia continued with her insult. "You think that Ava would bother with such insignificant gestures?"Mom, James is just concerned, seeing me so hard at work. That's why he brought soup," Ava said. She wanted nothing more than just to have her maternity leave at that moment."James, I'm telling you." Amelia put her purse away and jabbed, "I'm not done with you for what happened back then. You think I'd let you off the hook just because you handed the keys to the house and car over?""My daughter is meant to marry someone rich and powerful, and you, you better get lost."Ava snapped the folder right in front of her with a loud snap, looking
Amelia, who was chatting away merrily with Oliver turned sour as soon as she saw James walking in. "Oh, hi. Ava, you're here. Oliver got up from the couch smiling. The tone he used was like the one that came from the host instead. "You're here too, James," Oliver said with a smile glancing at the things James brought. James cursed deep down. He thought Oliver was shameless enough to believe he was family. He didn't like that an outsider like Oliver acted as if he was the son-in-law. "Mom, Ava remained resentful at Oliver after what happened before, putting the gifts they bought and saying, "James got these for you." Amelia still resented the attitude Ava took with her in the office, causing her to reply coldly, "I'm not taking any of it. who knows what's in there anyways? "Some people might pretend to be the good guy while being completely something else instead, driving a wedge between the mother and the daughter, hoping that the mother would die an early death the whole time
James headed silently for the bathroom after he left the room, calling Henry. Hi, Mr. Miller, it's me..." Henry who was taking care of some documents in his office, greeted James. "Stop everything going on in exhibition center No.7," James said coldly. Yes, Mr. Miller. Henry got up after hearing just how cold James sounded, nodding respectfully. He was puzzled as to what was going on after he hung up. "This is weird. Mr. Miller never bothered with what was going on with the exhibition centers before. Why did he get so interested all of a sudden?" Come in here, Henry summoned his assistant and asked, "Who's in charge of exhibition center no 7, and what's going on in there lately?" "Sir, his assistant, Mr sheriff, checked on the tablet for a bit and replied quickly, there would be a jewelry Charity expo going on in there, organized by James Collins, the jewelry tycoon of HonorGrave. "But the person in charge of the venue is Oliver Cooper." "Wait, who?" Henry threw his eyes wide
"Why? But we've reached an agreement at that time, haven't we?" Being surprised and panicked due to his words, Oliver asked incoherently, "what's more, you told me that Mr. Meyer has already agreed to it."But Mr. Meyer changes his mind now, Mr. Stewart shouted in a tone full of unhappiness and anger. "You just need to know that exhibition no 7 will be closed for the time being."After stating that, Mr. Stewart hung up the call. He regretted agreeing to cooperate with Oliver. if it was not for him, he would not be blamed by Mr. Meyer.Oliver stood in amazement and shock for a long time.He didn't know what had happened and why Mr. Meyer had changed his mind all of a sudden.A few days before, Mr. Stewart promised him that he would not only let him hold an event in exhibition no 7 but he would help them reach a deal.Why did he suddenly cancel the exhibition?Did he offend him or did he do something improper?"Noticing Oliver's gloomy face, Amelia thought it was strange and asked out o
The woman who was making a call was Janie Julius, deputy director of exhibition center no 7. She had a hot temper and was vigorous and resolute in work.Raising his head, James saw that w few workers were busy moving tables and desks. He then lowered his head to look at his clothes and suddenly knew why Janie urged him to work.So it turned out that she thought he was one of the day laborers."Come with me." Hanging up the call and noticing that James was still stunned, Janie shouted at him once again.Not finding a good chance to explain it, James gave up this idea and entered the hall with Janie.Although the woman has a short fuse, her figure was very hot. Her long and slender legs were very sexy and charming."Hurry up, before midnight, we have to finish the cleaning. Looking at the busy workers, Janie ordered in a loud voice.After finishing her words, she took two chairs and worked with these day laborers.It made James surprised. Unconsciously, James had a favorable impression
"where are you?" With a face full of impatience, James said, "Hurry up and get here!"Noticing that James ignored them totally, Tommy and Sandra became even more furious."Mr. Wilson, look at him!" Stamping her feet out of anger, Sandra pointed at James and shouted, "How dare he to disregard you! He is going too far!"Security guards, come here!" Tommy ordered in anger. "Catch him. When the police came here, tell them that he is a thief and is about to steal our exhibit.A thief?Hearing what he said James couldn't help but sneer. They were so matching, both of them were good at framing people up.Soon two security guards came out of the door and seized James by his arms."You will regret what you are doing now." Staring at Tommy and Sandra fixedly, James didn't do anything to resist."Stop joking." Sandra mocks him with a sneer. "Poor boy, such a lowly man like you does not even qualify to polish shoes for us. Just wait to be thrown into prison.Janie, who initially didn't want to ge
