The nose-piercing aroma of wine drenched James' shirt, his face felt a little hot.

There was no one to help James. All of them were staring at him with cynical eyes.

James' gaze became sharp, but he remembered Sheva's face who was working hard for her father. So, he had to restrain himself from making a mess here. James had to be patient, and he could only endure his own annoyance.

"Fine, I cheers for you!" James wiped the remaining wine off his face, and slowly stood up.

Tommy didn't expect that James could patiently endure him not replying. The corner of Tommy's lips turned up in a sardonic smile. Inwardly, he secretly laughed.

When James stood up, Tommy suddenly backed up and pretended to fall down, as he deliberately overturned the wine and whiskey drinks on the table that was a banquet for the guests.

Buzz!

The table was overturned, dozens of bottles of expensive wine and whiskey were all smashed. It caused a stir in this entire room.

"James, you're a coward! You dare push me and try to hit me?!" Tommy shouted loudly.

"What's wrong?" Luna asked, walking over. Sheva followed beside her. Including Hans-Luna's groom.

All the guests in the hall surrounded the scene.

"Luna, today is your wedding day. But, James dared to push and hit me. He wants to rebel!" Tommy said with an angry expression on his face, and he stared at James viciously. He looked as if he had been severely bullied by James.

"James, what's wrong with you?" Hans asked while holding back his anger.

"Tommy fell by himself. I didn't push him." James said honestly.

"Then why did Tommy say that you pushed and hit him?" Hans asked again with a dark and cold aura.

James shrugged his shoulders. Then he said, "People who were in this place witnessed that Tommy fell by himself. If you don't believe me, just ask them."

"Hans, James is lying! Just now, I was cheering with them, and strangely enough James immediately came to push and hit me. Everyone saw it!"

Then, Hans looked at the people who were there and asked them. "Everyone, how is the truth? What did you see?" Hans asked the other son-in-law of the Hilton family.

"As Tommy said, James deliberately pushed and tried to hit Tommy. Maybe James had too much to drink so he was drunk."

"Yeah. The smell of wine from James' mouth was so strong, he alone drank wine until his whole body was wet. Then, Tommy came over to make cheers with us, but James shoved him right away!"

"Yeah. That's what we saw."

Some of the Hilton family's sons-in-law said seriously. Of course they would support Tommy, even if Tommy lied.

James' expression was shocked. The corners of his mouth turned up in a painful smile.

James didn't explain anymore. Because for him it was useless. A weak person like him would not be heard and believed by them.

In the Hilton family, James was the one who had the lowest position. Even if he wasn't wrong, others would still say that he was!

"What a shame!"

"Why did Mr. Hilton choose a son-in-law like James? Who is useless and can only make noise!"

The guests watching talked and satirized James dispassionately.

"James, you really are useless!" Sheva said angrily. She felt that this was very embarrassing. Certainly, Luna would not want to help Sheva's father's business problem, since James had made a scene here.

"James! Hurry up and apologize to Hans and Luna!" Sheva said angrily. The trouble James had caused her was embarrassing.

James looked into his wife's teary eyes. After that, reluctantly while gritting his teeth, James said, "Hans, Luna, I apologize. Today I was wrong for making a mess at your wedding."

Off to the side, Tommy Hilton was almost laughing madly. He was so happy.

"James, you're an adult man. You've made a mistake, but you don't take responsibility! You were wrong, but earlier you slandered Tommy. I look down on people like you the most!" Luna said coldly.

Hans' face also became upset, because at his wedding there was a riot because of James. In fact, the guests who came were big people or famous figures.

"James, I don't accept your apology! But, today I can't hit you either. So, get out of here! In the future, don't ever appear in front of me ever!" Hans said angrily.

James sighed. He didn't care about the strange looks of the guests around him. He turned to walk outside.

When James turned around, Luna said to Sheva, "Sheva, don't you want me to help your father through the bankruptcy of your family business? I'll help you, provided that when you go home, you divorce this useless James! After that, I will help your father's business."

James stopped his walking, but he didn't look back at Luna. Two seconds later, he was walking out again.

After exiting the villa, James lit a cigarette. He was guessing what Sheva would do next.

"Let's go home!" Behind James, there was a familiar voice. James turned around, and he saw Sheva. There were still puddles of tears in her eyes.

James said, "Home? What about your mission to help your father?"

Sheva said angrily, "I told you that we were getting a divorce. But it was me who chose to get divorced, and not them being forced to get divorced. I don't want to be forced."

"I'll think of another way to help my father. They've insulted and slandered you, that's insulting me too!"

James was moved. He didn't expect that Sheva would side with him.

"James, I'm sorry." Sheva said while wiping her tears. "When I was in the hall, I was too angry. But after calming down and thinking, you wouldn't have dared to hit Tommy. Because, you never drink wine or any kind of alcohol."

James asked, "You believe me?"

Sheva nodded, "Yeah. I believe you."

"Thank you for believing in me," James said. In his heart, James promised not to let anyone who believed in him down.

Sheva's house was on the edge of Leeds, it was a real estate 20 years ago, that's why it looked old and shabby.

Once inside the house, the expressions on Eden Hilton and Maria Jil's faces were very serious looking at James. They are James' father and mother-in-law.

"James, you still dare to come back here?" Maria smiled sarcastically.

Hans said with a fierce expression."What's going on?" Just then, a low and very authoritative voice sounded.

"Then I'll paralyze your legs!"The expressions of the two muscular men became ferocious, they jointly kicked strongly at James' knee bones. Then, James tilted his body. He kicked them twice. The sound of wind rang out, and James' kick hit the waist of the two muscular men.Thump!Thump!The two muscular men were kicked until they flew a few meters away, and fell on the ground with force.

    "This car is too expensive." Sheva said."Where did you get the money to buy this car?" Sheva looked at James suspiciously.As far as Sheva knew, James had been selling BBQ chicken and toast at a small roadside stand. There was no way that James could make so much money from his sales, and then buy a car."I have been saving for years." James replied casually.""You're the design director of this company, so you should have a car!" James continued."Nope." Sheva shook her head, she refused, "Even if you buy it, I still don't want it. This car is for you only.""Don't forget, at work, I'm now your Assistant Director." James smiled.

    "Yes, Director Mossa, earlier James relied solely on his own knowledge of Miss Bella, twisted the facts in front of her, spoke rudely to our crew, and even forced me to apologize to him by lowering my head," Hanny said in a sorrowful tone. "He also suggested to Miss Bella that she should dismiss our crew, claiming that what we were doing was nothing but garbage," Hanny continued. "James, I've heard about you. Aren't you the useless son-in-law? In public, who doesn’t know that you only rely on your wife to live an easy life every day? Do you really consider yourself a man?" Director Mossa sneered at James with disgust. "Let me tell you, just because Miss Bella supports you, don't think you can do whatever you want. I am a member of Ocean Corp!" James watched the two men’s behavior and smiled without saying a word. Clearly, this director had no idea what had actually happened between him and Hanny, so he blindly believed whatever he was told. "Why are you staying silent? Weren’t

    Bella was not someone who could be offended so easily. Her well-known temper in Xo city made many people wary of her. How could a man dressed so simply, like James, possibly be her friend? Seeing Bella’s cold expression, sweat began to form on Hanny’s forehead. He feared he had made a grave mistake. “Yes, I apologize, Mr. James! I take back what I said earlier. I made a mistake, and I sincerely apologize!” Hanny quickly apologized, bowing slightly to James. "You don't need to apologize to me," James said indifferently. "You're responsible for this area, so it's understandable that you regulate who can enter. However, such arrogance is not advisable. In the future, don’t use the company’s name for trivial matters, or you might damage its reputation." "You—!" Hanny’s face turned red with anger. Who exactly was James? Was he the boss of Tornado Corp? He had only apologized because of Bella, yet James spoke so arrogantly! "Alright, Hanny, let me ask you. Now, can I go in and take a l

My cousin will definitely deal with you!" After that, Emily walked away in frustration, completely losing her dignity if she stayed any longer with James and Bella. Bella watched Emily leave and joked, "James, look at that. You actually made a girl storm off in anger." James replied indifferently, "She’s the one who came to bother me. It seems like I didn’t do anything, right?" Bella glanced at James and said, "Can’t you see it? Do you know stars like Ethan in the film and television industry? It seems like your connections run quite deep." "But, you're just playing with a little girl. Her cousin is not an ordinary person—this could really be a problem for you. It all depends on how you handle it," Bella said. James replied, "Emily’s cousin wants to chase after you. That’s your problem.

    "Do you feel no shame at all in front of Bella? If you don’t have the ability, then you don’t have it. Do I need to prove it to you?" "Bella, did you see that? This James is so pathetic," Emily said with a look of disgust. "I told him I know a director, and that’s a fact. For us, it's just a small matter. But he thinks I'm showing off. In reality, it’s his deep-seated inferiority complex at play!" "Someone like him, who is worlds apart from us—what qualifications does he have to go out and associate with us?" Emily continued. Bella's smiling eyes narrowed slightly as she playfully gazed at James. James shook his head. To Emily, everything was just a comparison. It reminded James of something a foreign writer once said: *‘Every move made by those in the upper class is always misinterpreted as showing off by the poor. But in truth, it is merely a reflection of their own incompetent inferiority complex.’* "Miss Emily, hello. What brings you to the Film and Television

    “Emily’s cousin is Nathan, the eldest son of the Molo Corp family in Bop City, who also holds shares in Tornado Corp,” Bella said with a smile.James frowned slightly. A shareholder in Tornado Corp? He began to understand Bella’s point.“Exactly. Tornado Corp and Molo Corp have a major partnership. Now you understand how amazing my cousin is, don’t you? You’re nothing compared to him,” Emily said smugly, her expression brimming with superiority.“Miss Emily, when your cousin visits this city, remind him to meet me,” James said calmly.Emily scoffed. “Fine! When you face my cousin, I’m sure you won’t be able to act this arrogant.”Emily couldn’t understand how James still dared to speak so confidently after learning her cousin was a shareholder in Tornado Corp. Did he really think Bella could protect him?If it weren’t for her cousin’s interest in Bella, the Sheno family wouldn’t stand a chance against the Molo family’s power.“James, let’s head to the Film and Television Plaza.

    Arabella looked surprised, then smiled as if in disbelief. “Are you seriously rejecting a partnership with me?” “Don’t you realize how lucrative the Lacerta City Project, Xo City, Tornado Corp, and Ocean Real Estate Corp are? These are the biggest headlines across the province.” “These are two massive projects worth tens of billions.” “Every major business in the city is vying for a piece of this opportunity.” “Anyone who invests will see enormous profits,” she explained further. “James, don’t play dumb, okay? I know you hold shares in Ocean Real Estate Corp,” Arabella said confidently. “You have access to all those resources. If you partner with me, you’ll be guaranteed huge profits,” she added.James smiled and replied, “You’re overestimating things. My investment in Ocean Real Estate Corp has nothing to do with you.”Arabella was puzzled by James’s attitude, especially since Ocean Real Estate Corp seemed to be in a weaker position. Tornado Corp had vast financial resources

    Roger, a renowned figure and the right-hand man of the Shogun, was visibly uneasy in James's presence. "Apologies, Miss Emily... I know Mr. James very well," Roger said. Emily was stunned! "How is that possible?" "Mr. James, forgive me... please pardon me." Roger bowed his head before James. James replied, "It's all right. You may leave." "Yes, Mr. James. Thank you." Roger left them. Emily was shocked—Roger respected James?! She couldn't comprehend the situation and felt humiliated for not receiving the support she had expected. In desperation, she declared, "My cousin will arrive later, and will give you a lesson!" Emily stormed off, frustrated and unsatisfied that she couldn’t force James to yield. Meanwhile, James sat impassively, sipping his tea. To him, Emily was merely an arrogant woman unaccustomed to rejection. Ten minutes later, Bella arrived with her guards, ascending to the second floor of the restaurant. Bella smiled at James and said, "Emily tried so

    "You’re James, right?" Just as James was about to leave, a beautiful girl in her twenties approached with an arrogant attitude. The young girl had an alluring figure, dressed stylishly in hot pants and a white t-shirt. On her wrist, she wore a luxurious Chanel watch. She looked like she was truly trying to capture attention. James glanced at the girl. "Who are you? Do you know me?" "Let me introduce myself, I’m Bella’s good friend. My name is Emily," she said casually, pointing to the seat in front of her. "I know about you, James. You’re quite famous in this city." "Where’s Bella?" James asked flatly. "Bella has some matters to attend to, so she asked me to come first," Emily replied as she sat down and pointed to the chair across from her. "Sit down, we need to talk. There’s something I need to ask you." James shook his head, feeling impatient with her attitude. "I don’t know you, and there’s nothing I need to discuss with you," he answered calmly.

    Sheva wanted to say something but ended up not asking much. “By the way, Sheva, have you picked a villa on that artificial island we talked about earlier?” James asked, suddenly recalling something. “If you’ve found a suitable villa, let’s move in.” Sheva thought for a moment and replied, “It’s too much of a hassle. I think Villa Dragon Snow is good enough. The Rahel family has returned to their hometown, and the villa has already been cleaned up quite a bit.” “By the way, what’s the story with the artificial island? Was it you and your friends who developed it?” Sheva asked with curiosity. James nodded. “It’s up to you. You can stay wherever you like. Besides, I won’t be returning to Villa Dragon Snow for a while.” “I understand,” Sheva replied, nodding as she looked at James seriously. “I’m planning to use the company’s jewelry promotion as an opportunity to visit some other cities and maybe find an interesting place. What do you think?” “Oh? You want to travel?” James a
