Chapter 285-Mr. Timothy...
“Someone like James still thinks he’s great,” a man whispered quietly in the crowd. “But he’s just trash pretending to be important.”A few others laughed softly, trying to win Jacky’s favor by joining in the mockery.“Sheva,” Mariana said coldly. “Tell James to stand up and make a toast right now. Ask him to apologize to Mr. Jacky before he causes real trouble. If Mr. Jacky gets offended, not even I can protect your useless husband.”Her tone was sharp and arrogant. She kept watching Jacky’s expression, which was growing more tense by the second. She was sure Jacky was getting angry, and that would be the perfect punishment for James.Good, Mariana thought bitterly. Let’s see how he ends up after this.But Sheva hesitated. She looked at James nervously, not daring to make a move.James gazed at her calmly, raised an eyebrow, and said quietly, “If I make a toast, would he dare to drink it?”The room instantly fell silent.“What did you just say?” Mariana stared at James in disbelief.
Chapter 284-They're think James Will Regret
"Ah, Miss Mariana. It is rare for you to visit the Trandana Hotel," Jacky said in his deep, calm voice."Mr. Jacky truly knows how to treat his guests with respect," Mariana replied, lifting her wine glass. "Let’s sit and have a drink.""So this is the famous Jacky?" someone among the guests whispered. "The one called the controller of wind and rain in the Ken District?""Not just that," another replied. "Mr. Jacky is not only a business giant. He is also a powerful figure in the gray world."The presence of the bald man with glasses made the entire room fall silent. Jacky’s name was no stranger to anyone. In the land of the Ken District, he was a living legend, a major figure in both property and underground business. He controlled massive industries like Ken Star City, a source of wealth that seemed endless.But more than that, Jacky was known as the Bald Eagle, one of the most feared figures in the underworld.Everyone knew that the underground emperor of Ken District, Jayden, had
Chapter 283-A Bald Man
Hotel Trandana, Dandelion…“At the dinner party later, I will introduce a few celebrities from Imperial Capital’s business circle to Sheva,” Mariana said, her tone full of pride. “One of them is even the biggest investor in Ken Star City. When the time comes, everyone will know that James was lying.”Her friends quickly chimed in. “Mariana is incredible. Even big investors show up when she invites them so casually.” “Haha, every time there’s a class reunion, Mariana always brings us to meet important people. She’s truly on another level.”Mariana smiled in satisfaction. She took a sip of red wine, then glanced at Sheva with a mocking look. “Sheva, come with me. Tonight, I’ll open your eyes so you can see who James really is. Honestly, just seeing you standing next to him already disgusts me.”Her words immediately stirred the room. Sheva clenched her fists, holding back her anger, and looked at James beside her. He remained calm as usual. “It’s fine, Honey,” James said softly. “L
Chapter 282-I'll Make You Know...
The response was met with bursts of laughter. “Hahaha! This man is really good at bragging without blinking!” “So calm when he lies, impressive.” “Crazy, his claims are way too big. Buying a building in Kopus Star City? His face is thick enough.” Everyone there laughed at James. Not a single person believed he could do it. If he really bought a building in that area, it would mean he had cash flow in the trillions. Even Mariana could not do that easily, let alone a so called useless son-in-law from Leeds like James. His wife came to the reunion by taxi, but her husband arrived with a Bentley and bodyguards? It all looked so fake and showy. “Sheva, your husband is a huge liar. Do you really believe him?” Mariana asked, looking at her with mockery. “I believe him,” Sheva answered without hesitation. Immediately everyone stared at her with disbelief. “Sheva, you are too naive. James does not even know the price of a single building in Kopus! I have seen many men like
Chapter 281-Of Course
“So arrogant. Huh.” Mariana sneered, her eyes full of mockery. She had no idea what James was really thinking, but his cold attitude clearly irritated her. She thought James would panic and beg for forgiveness once he realized who she was. But to her surprise, James showed no sign of respect at all. “Sheva, tell James to come here,” Mariana said in a low, cold voice as she handed her phone to Sheva. “Where are you, honey?” James asked warmly from the other end. Sheva replied softly, “My husband, I’m at Trandana Commercial Plaza. Please come here.” “Well, wait for me there, honey.” James ended the call. “James is really stupid, isn’t he?” Mariana said sharply. “When he gets here, I’ll teach him a little lesson. He needs to learn who he should respect.” Laughter broke out around her. Mariana was used to being admired and obeyed. So when James dared to ignore her, it felt like a slap to her pride in public. “Men like James are all talk,” said a young man with a disgusted
Chapter 280-Where's My Wife?
To Mariana, the Sheva who was once adored by everyone was now nothing more than a joke. “This isn’t necessary. My husband is busy with a lot of things. Besides, he isn’t really close to everyone here,” Sheva said softly, trying to refuse politely. She had no intention of dragging James into such an embarrassing situation. “What could possibly keep him that busy?” a young woman scoffed. “If it’s about business, just ask your husband to come. Besides, what business deal can’t be handled through Mariana? Her influence in Dandelion is huge.” “That’s right, Sheva. We’re all curious about that so-called rejected son-in-law. What kind of qualifications does he have to marry our campus beauty?” a man said mockingly. “You still dare to talk about business? Sheva, stop making things up. You didn’t even have a car when you arrived in Dandelion. What could that useless man James possibly do?” a flamboyant young man sneered sharply. Sheva felt completely cornered. With Mariana being the most
