At Villa Star
At the doorstep of a classy and expensive villa, Sheva-a beautiful woman wearing a long red dress and a beautiful body-was blinking a pair of eyes and expressionlessly at a man in front of her. That man was James Timothy."James, you won't talk much later!" Sheva said to James with a serious look in her eyes."Today's matter is very important. I plan to negotiate with them to help my father's property business get through this critical period," Sheva continued.James replied, "Yes. I know." He nodded his head.They were husband and wife, two years ago James Timothy and Sheva Hilton were married on the orders of Sheva's grandfather. Mr. Hilton married off his youngest granddaughter to a man who was poor and had no power. No one dared to contradict that order at that time. The reason why Mr. Hilton married off Sheva to James was unknown to anyone other than Mr. Hilton and James.However, a year ago Mr. Hilton died, and since then James's life in the Hilton family has been increasingly humiliated.Sheva, who loved her grandfather very much, had to accept her grandfather's order to marry a poor man like James. Up until now, they still have no real husband and wife relationship.Sheva and James entered Villa Star, today is the wedding of Edwin Hilton's daughter, he is the eldest son of Mr. Hilton who holds the power of the Hilton family. The wedding party was lively, inviting business bosses from various fields from several cities and countries. And all Hilton family members were present as well.Inside is a grand and beautifully decorated villa, there is also a flower garden and a beautiful small pond. These were all properties of Edwin's business.Outside the villa, a line of classy and expensive cars stopped. Like Maserati, Porsche 91, Cayenne, and Audi."Hi, Sheva. I guess you must have come here by taxi, right? Why didn't you call me? I can send a car to pick you up. Because, today is so important, you'd be embarrassing the Hilton family if you came here by taxi." A grown man said that to Sheva. He is Tommy Hilton. The eldest son of Edwin Hilton.Tommy took off his sunglasses and glanced at James and Sheva with a look of contempt.Sheva was silent, she didn't answer right away.Eden Hilton was Sheva's father, who was also James' father-in-law. In the Hilton family, Eden was the poorest son because all of his other relatives were greedier to grab Mr. Hilton's wealth. In the end, Eden only got a property management factory that was on the verge of being bankrupt. Therefore, with Eden's family's poor economic situation, Sheva could not buy a car to go anywhere."Sheva, I told you a long time ago, that you should divorce your poor husband. And I will introduce you to my friend who is the son of a rich man in this country. If you had obeyed me back then, you wouldn't be struggling financially today." Tommy said with great enthusiasm, and he didn't care about James' existence."But, of course, you're not too late, Sheva. If you want to be rich, you can divorce your husband, and then you can beg me to introduce you to one of my rich friends," Tommy said again proudly."Tommy, have you finished talking?" Sheva asked coldly."Hey, as your brother, I just feel sorry for you. I was kind enough to give you a solution, but you got upset and still didn't take my advice. So, just enjoy your poverty for the rest of your life!" Tommy told Sheva casually.Then, Tommy glanced at James. "James, why are you at my sister's wedding?" He continued, "By the way, I heard that your father-in-law's property business doesn't have operating funds anymore, right? And already unable to pay the employees' salaries, I heard that it will soon go bankrupt.""It could be that you came here to persuade my father to lend you money, right?" Tommy continued. He chuckled.James just stared at Tommy, and chose not to respond to Tommy's words.Sheva sighed, she tried to keep her anger in check, and then she said to her husband. "Be patient, don't mind him. We came here today to take care of a serious matter."James nodded his head.Inside the hall, it was a spacious, western-style building, the decor was classy and expensive, and in front of it stretched a long layer of red carpet.Sheva was carrying a beautiful gift box. She walked up to the bride and flashed a smile. "Luna, congratulations on your wedding." Sheva congratulated her older cousin.Luna Hilton, has a beautiful face. She had fair skin, but she was haughty.Luna gave Sheva a quick glance with a flat expression, then she said, "Put the gift there!""Ok," Sheva replied."Luna, I'll accompany you here, okay?" Sheva said and smiled at Luna."No need. You don't have to be nice to me. I know what you're up to. This has to be about your father, right? My family won't help." Luna said coldly.Sheva's smile froze, replaced with a wound in her heart that could not be closed. She clenched her hands into fists, and her body trembled slightly as well.Before her grandfather died and before she married James, Luna was very kind to her. But now she had turned so indifferent and cold towards Sheva.Luna Hilton is married to one of the rich son in the country. The wedding was very grand, all the Hilton family came to celebrate. All the guests were also respectable and worthy. And Sheve was silent for a moment after thinking about this, in her heart she thought about how difficult her father's economic situation was. However, Sheva's face remained smiling and followed Luna's footsteps.While James sat in place, from a distance he saw Luna's behavior towards Sheva. In his heart, there was also pain in seeing his wife treated like that.At the banquet table where James was, all the sons-in-law of the Hilton family were also sitting there. However, all of these sons-in-law except James were rich and had power. Compared to James' position, it was no comparison at all.And so, no one greeted James. They ignored James' existence."All the Hilton family's sons-in-law are here already? Let's drink together!" A voice rang out, it was Tommy. He approached all the Hilton family in-laws, carrying a glass of wine."Tommy, we should cheers for you!"Tommy had a relaxed expression. He was highly praised and respected by the other in-laws, as he was the main heir of the Hilton family. Neighborhood, wealth, position, and everything else elevated Tommy above the other Hilton family in-laws.Tommy glanced at James, he saw that James was not joining them. He wasn't holding a glass of wine."James, are you underestimating me? Why aren't you holding a glass of wine?!" Tommy asked coldly and gave James a sharp look.Swoosh!Within a second, Tommy flung out his hand to pour a glass of wine on James' face.

Chapter 204-I Am James
Meanwhile, Erick was sitting back, a cigar in his hand and a glass of alcohol on the table. He looked like he was enjoying the moment. Knock knock... Someone knocked on the door. "Erick, you're amazing! I just got back from Ocean Real Corp, and the workers there treated me like a king," said Nathan with a wide smile. Erick laughed. "Now is the perfect time to take advantage of them." Suddenly, Erick's expression turned serious. "By the way, Nathan. You did a great job today too. I just got a call from the Director of Ocean Real Corp. Everything is going smoothly. We can start operating inside Ocean World Corp and prepare the investment funds. That company will be ours very soon." "That fast?" Nathan looked surprised. "By the way, when I was leaving Ocean Real Corp, I ran into James and Shogun." "I heard Carlo couldn’t lead the meeting because he’s still in the hospital. So he asked James to replace him? Letting someone clueless run a company? Isn’t that a disaster waiting to
Chapter 203-Will Trap Them
Then, Shogun took out an important document. It contained secret recordings of the directors plotting to bring down their own company. The document had been obtained by Shogun from the Black Shadow Team. “Just wait and see,” James said as he lit a cigarette. Shogun deliberately held the document up for all the directors to see. “Remember, Mr. James can do the same things Tornado Corp has done.” “This is... unbelievable,” one of the directors murmured, his face turning pale. That document was supposed to be delivered to Tornado Corp. So how did it end up in Shogun’s hands? “Where did you get that document?” a director asked, cold sweat dripping down his temple. “What do you think?” James replied calmly. “Don’t assume I’m unaware of your dirty schemes with Tornado Corp. You’re all afraid of them, aren’t you? Even when your leader was attacked, none of you had the courage to fight back. Is your pride worth so little that you’d trade it for money?” he said coldly. James continued,
Chapter 202-Are None of You Afraid of Me?
“Oh, so Mr. Shogun is here as well. Please have a seat, sir,” said William politely. “However, allow me to point out that today’s meeting concerns the internal affairs of Ocean Real Corp. If you intend to get involved, that may not be procedurally appropriate.” In the past, William would have respected Shogun’s presence. But now the situation was different. With a secure position under the protection of Tornado Corp and Nathan Molo, he was no longer afraid of anyone, not even Shogun. Especially since Carlo’s illness and the shift of power to Tornado Corp, Shogun’s influence was seen as no longer directly beneficial. Offering a little respect was more than enough. “Mr. William does have a point,” added one of the board members, casting a mocking glance at James. “Mr. Shogun is a close associate of Mr. Carlo, so if he is here to represent him, we can accept that. But who is this James? Does he really deserve to sit at the same table with us and lead the Ocean Real Corp board meeting
Chapter 201-But Who Was James?
At the long conference table in the center of the room, a dozen formally dressed men and women were already seated. Each of them projected a strong and authoritative presence. They were the major investors of Ocean Real Corp—key figures with hundreds of millions of dollars in wealth and powerful connections in the business world. Since Brandon took over leadership, Ocean Real Corp was no longer just a property company. It had expanded into various sectors, becoming a market leader in the Eastern Coast Province. It was only natural for investors from different industries to join the company. The shares invested by James in Carlo represented 50% ownership of Ocean Real Corp, giving him full authority in decision-making. However, since Tornado Corp entered the city, Ocean Real Corp's position had started to weaken. Even assets in various business sectors were being affected. Now, with Carlo hospitalized and unable to manage the company directly, some investors had begun to give in t

After ending the call, Shogun spoke with a serious expression. "Mr. James, Brandon just called me. He said the investors of Ocean Real Corp have held a board meeting. All the investors have surrendered and agreed to hand over control to Tornado Corp. They are clearly forcing a takeover. Brandon can no longer hold them back." "Brandon is asking for my help and wants to know your direct instructions," Shogun added. James calmly put out his cigarette. His expression remained flat as he said, "Get the car. We are going to the Ocean Real building." "Yes, sir," Shogun nodded and walked out of the flower garden toward the parking lot at Tanjung Emas. Three minutes later, a Rolls-Royce Phantom drove away from the large Tanjung Emas bridge, heading toward the Eastern District. Inside the car, James's gaze was cold. The corner of his lips curved slightly, showing that he was already planning his next move. It had to be admitted that Tornado Corp moved quickly. As soon as Carlo was
Chapter 199-A Call
"According to reports from the Black Shadow Team and Maya, Erick, the mastermind behind all of this, is one of the three central leaders of Tornado Corp. He controls great power overseas and commands more than ten elite teams. This time, he only sent one team here," explained Shogun. James frowned. He did not expect Erick to have such a powerful background. Normally, if the three top leaders of Tornado Corp came to a city for expansion, they would choose a major one, not a small city like this. It was highly suspicious. "Mr. James," Shogun continued, "according to Bhaqi, Erick also brought an expert known as Hades. He is a top-level assassin who was once an internationally wanted fugitive with a high bounty. I believe we need to be extremely cautious." He went on, "Besides that, Erick is making aggressive moves toward Tornado Corp. He has threatened and bought out all the investors of Ocean Real Corp. His plan is to swallow the company within a week." James gently tapped the
