"What happened?" James asked hurriedly.Mrs. Miller and Amelia are arguing, said the assistant hesitantly.Thirty minutes earlier...After James was brought to the VIP room by Leo, Ava was similarly led to a resting room, with special arrangements made by the assistant to bring her some food.After Ava had a small bite she wanted to take a nap, but she heard people arguing in the corridor outside.Please listen to my explanation, Aunt. It is not what think it is..." Ava peeped outside and saw her mother and Oliver standing at the door of another VIP room."What's there to explain?" Yelled Amelia disappointedly, her tone starkly different from earlier. "Oliver, have always thought you were a reliable person. But today, I finally saw the truth.""You gifted me second-hand jewelry for my birthday yelled Amelia. Is that your way of saying you despise Ava? Or do you despise me?"Not just second-hand jewelry it also turned out to be fake! And to think I continue following you... Before Amel
"Don't worry Ava, don't worry... Your mom and I don't want you to divorce Ava anymore. Isn't Leo Meyer, the richest guy..." Joseph Bailey didn't have a second thought about what he said, and he said the last thing he should not be saying."I see Ava said in disappointment. Now that James is related to someone of high status, you changed your attitude all of a sudden.Ava glanced at Oliver as she said it. "And now you are ready to get rid of this second fiddle, right?""Joseph, what on earth are you talking about?" Amelia Bailey panicked when she saw what happened. "Baby, don't you believe it! We didn't do anything."You didn't do anything?" Ava shook her head with tears in her eyes. "You did everything.After she said what she had to say to her parents, Ava was ready to leave."Ava... Oliver knew he could never be the same man as Ava since she had found out what happened. Oliver Cooper lost his mind. He held onto Ava's hand tightly. Everything I did, I did it because I like you."Let
Just because he wanted to make his wife happy, James Miller got so excited that he almost spilled the beans."James, there is something you are keeping from me." Ava was even more certain of it when she saw the guilty expression on James' face."Uh, here is the thing." James rolled his eyes, smiling again. Originally I wanted to surprise you. But since you already noticed, I will tell you now."I will start working at the Life Long Collectible next week."Lite Long Collectible?" Ava was both surprised and delighted. "Are you talking about the company that takes up half of Lotus Antique street? The one that's these days?""That's right." James nodded. You know that I have some knowledge of Antiques. Today, Mr. Meyer invited me to work at Life Long Collectible."That is such great news!" Ava Miller was overwhelmed with joy. She grabbed James's arm, laughing."Ava, I understand," James said in shame, "You have been through a lot with me all these years because I have never had a proper j
"Amelia, you are not seeing the big picture!" Daniella Bailey narrowed her eyes, and she analyzed shrewdly. "Think about it. A mansion worth tens of millions is not something you can just randomly borrow. Leo Meyer is willing to let James live in his heaven's mansion. Tell me, what do you think about this suggestion?""What... What do you mean?" Amelia started to panic a little."It means that James Miller is someone Leo treasures right now." Daniella smiled in excitement. "Leo had not only lent James his mansion but also appointed him as the vice president. Right now, there must be countless people jealous of James Miller.""Joseph." Amelia turned her gaze to her husband, looking somewhere neurotic. "Did you hear that? We are going to be very rich.That's true. Joseph Bailey nodded in agreement. Now that James Miller had attached himself to the richest guy, his future must be very promising.That's right. Amelia Bailey was overwhelmed with delight. "I believe that our daughter, or ev
"Okay." James Miller replied, as he rose up from the executive chair.He walked out of the Life Long Group building, being escorted by Henry Meyer. He entered his assigned car."Mr Miller." A deep and rough voice sounded as James sat down.Cartel!" James widened his eyes, his pupils contracting in surprise."Mr Miller, I'm back." Cartel smiled nervously. He had a tanned face, and his small eyes were sparkling with tears."You..." James was astonished at first, but soon, he smiled. "It must have been Henry's idea.Cartel was a young Mexican man. James had been weak and unhealthy as a child; his father, sir Miller, had hired a personal trainer for him.Cartel had been James's training partner since he was a child. After James grew up, cartel stayed beside him as his driver and bodyguard.James Miller had a big fight with his family three years ago. He had no way to keep cartel after that.So, cartel went back to Mexico. He lived his life on horseback, spending all day as a shepherd.Thr
"Am I wrong?" Amelia glared at her daughter in displeasure. She was unhappy about how Ava was ruining her plan.Damn it, Ava! I didn't expect you to help me. But the least you can do is not to cause any trouble!" Amelia thought to herself.Ava was deeply disgusted by what her other did. She even regretted agreeing to have dinner with them.Her mother had gone to every length to humiliate James when he was a nobody.But now that James is acquainted with Leo Meyer and had a job at a major company, Amelia started to treat him like her own son.She was so rude.Daniella pulled Ava aside, signaling that she should control herself. She was angry as well, "James, we are family after all. We should forget about what happened in the past and move on.""We all know you are a good kid with a sense of filial piety. We are so happy that Ava married you. She's in good hands. Daniella paused and then she complimented Ava, of course, Ava has the best taste in men."Here, let's toast to that. All of t
"Did you do it for me?" Ava was furious.The last thing she wanted to hear right now, was that her mother had her interest at heart."Of course, I do it for your sake." Seeing her daughter blow at her repeatedly, Amelia also felt embarrassed.Amelia said, "Yes I admit I want to hold the money in my hands. However, it's not that I'm keeping it for myself. In the end, that money is for you two.Ava pursed her lips angrily and said, "Mom, I'm telling you this, James did not ask for any money. Even if he did ask for the money, it won't be for you because that money belongs to James."What belongs to him? Hearing Ava's words, Amelia was not happy. She said you're his wife, is it necessary to distinguish everything so clearly?"Amelia muttered under her breath. How unfair it is! Why didn't you two distinguish everything like this when he lived in our house for free like a loser?"Ava didn't want to argue with her mother. She understood James' personality well. He would never ask others for
Lia Campbell is the fourth child of the Campbell family.She is now the head of the Campbell family.Mr. Campbell had three sons, he loved his youngest daughter, Lia the most and she is the apple of his eye.Lia became one of the most well-known leading people in the antique market of HonorGrave through her influential family name and gorgeous appearance.She has once been publicly recognized as the most beautiful woman in HonorGrave."Of course, I wouldn't dare refuse an invitation from Ms. Campbell!" James said and smiled lightly. The woman was persistent, she wasn't going to stop him from trying to poach him from Life Long Group.What she didn't know was that she was unable and unqualified to persuade James to resign from Life Long Group and join her company instead."Mr. Miller, it seems you know me." Lia smiled and said charmingly, "if so, please give me a chance to treat you to a drink."Ms. Campbell, your beauty is nationally famous, of course, I've heard of you, James smiled b
