James' body swayed and dodged the fist.
"Your reaction is very fast!" said the muscular man. "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. They immediately vomited blood. When they looked at James, they became even more scared.They couldn't believe that just James' two feet had almost paralyzed them! James' strength was so cruel."Who told you to find me here? Tell me!" James' face became very cold."We were just following orders from the boss." A muscular man said fearfully."Our boss is a man of honor. Since you have dared to hurt us, our boss will not allow this. He will take revenge on you immediately!" One of them said tensely.James furrowed his brows and thought for a moment."Our boss is Mr. Shogun. You must have heard his name."James had indeed heard of the man. And now, James smiled sarcastically."What did Shogun tell you to come looking for me for?" James asked.They were not willing to answer James' question. So, they just stayed silent and looked at each other.Slap!Slap!James gave two slaps until both of their faces were bruised and facial muscles became sore."Don't challenge my patience!" James' gaze was very sharp. They didn't even dare to look at James.A muscular man shrank, he lowered his head and said, "Our boss told us to monitor Eden Hilton's house. When we see a family member coming out, then we have to kidnap him and take him away. As for the details of what to do, we don't know either."Hearing that, James' heart instantly flared with anger. This time it was lucky that it was him who came out, if it had been Sheva or his in-laws, this matter would have been serious.One of James' feet stepped on the face of the muscular man who spoke. The muscular man felt such pain that he gritted his teeth forcefully. His forehead was bleeding, and his body was trembling."Take me to meet Shogun!" James said coldly.Having witnessed James' powerful martial arts skills, these two men didn't dare to resist anymore, and finally they obediently took James to meet the Shogun.20 minutes later...A car arrived at a nightclub. The name of this club was Night Star. The two muscular men showed the way to a place, and they went up to the floor.On the 3rd floor, there was a large hall. This hall was magnificently decorated, everywhere there were beautiful uniformed women serving.Not long after, James arrived inside a room. The lights in the room were bright, in the center there was a meeting table, around there were dozens of people, everyone was so fierce, on their arms tattooed dragons.At the very center, sat a thin, middle-aged man with a cruel demeanor, wearing a floral shirt."How dare you hit my men!" Shogun smoked his cigar and had a look of disdain on his face."Are you Shogun? Who ordered you?" James asked flatly.Shogun's expression seemed unconcerned, "I've been in the mafia for years, and I still haven't met anyone as brainless as you. You walk right into my room, and you dare to be arrogant in front of me!" Who do you think you are?""Attack him!" Shogun ordered his men as he pointed at James."Yes, boss!" All cold gazes stared at James.This time, all of the Shogun's men drew one-meter steel sticks, and charged quickly towards James. One by one, they moved quickly and swung the steel sticks skillfully. All hit James on the head.James' facial expression was very flat. He caught a steel stick, and tried to break it. And the steel stick was instantly broken into two pieces. Then, his body moved and charged straight up.Shapp!James blindly threw the two steel sticks brutally. And every blow hit the Shogun's men. James' steel sticks quickly hit them, so they didn't have time to retaliate to James. During this time, they didn't even have time to touch James' body.In less than three minutes, on the floor lay a dozen men in suits, their faces bruised and all screaming tragically."Tell me, who ordered you?!" James looked at Shogun coldly.Shogun was dumbfounded, he still didn't realize what happened and showed an incredulous look. He did not expect that James could defeat all his men in just a short time. In fact, these dozens of his men are ruthless people. They had been his men for years. But, how could they all be defeated by James in just a moment?Of course, Shogun was furious. He kicked his iron chair. "While you're an expert in martial arts, and you dare to be careless in front of me?" Shogun threw the cigar in his hand, "If you make a mess in my place, it means you are looking for death here!"Although James had already defeated a dozen of his men, but it did not make Shogun scared."Kneel down, if you don't, I'll shoot you!" Shogun suddenly picked up a gun from the bottom of the table, the cold mouth of the gun directly facing James."You don't want to kneel down? Do you really want to die?" Shogun said coldly, "You think I dare not shoot you?"James' face became flat, "You can try. Just shoot me.""Then, I grant your wish!" Shogun's expression suddenly turned ferocious, he gritted his teeth and pulled the trigger of the gun.Bang!The air shook, the bullet came out and the sparks in the gun's mouth ignited!As the bullets came out, James had no expression, only the corner of his mouth revealed a cruel smile. The body he charged at, suddenly disappeared on the spot and left only a shadow.Shogun was dumbfounded.In a flash, James' figure was already beside Shogun, he was like a ghost."Ah! It hurts!" Shogun suddenly cried out in pain.James squeezed Shogun's arm and twisted it. And there was the sound of bones breaking. Shogun let out a very loud moan of pain. The gun also fell on the floor.James kicked Shogun, and he flew for a few meters and fell down. His whole body was a mess, the body trembled and the corner of the mouth flowed a little fresh blood.Shogun's face was full of shock, he really didn't expect James' body to be faster than a bullet.Then, James expressionlessly stepped towards Shogun.Shogun knelt down and begged, "Mr. James, forgive me! I didn't think to offend you! These are all orders from Hans Avanzo!""So, Hans told you to do this?" James asked with a cold look."That's right, Hans told me to kidnap you, Mr. James." Shogun said firmly. He was currently impatient to kill Hans, because he felt wronged. Because of Hans, he almost died at the hands of James!In fact, Hans told Shogun that James was just a weak and poor man. But in fact, James is very strong and a martial arts expert. So, Shogun felt cheated by Hans. From now on, he really hated Hans.James thought for a moment and asked coldly, "What exactly is it? Tell me completely and clearly!" Shogun secretly felt relieved and said seriously, "Mr. James, yesterday Hans invited me to meet, and he gave me a piece of photo. Then, he told me to organize my men and kidnap the person in the photo, he said he would pay me $1 million dollars.""Whose photo?" James asked curiously.Shogun obediently took out two photo
"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. "YouYou are my boss, since I am your assistant, I have the right to take care of you, and this is one of the ways I serve you, by giving you a car.""After all, mine isn't yours too, right?" James said again.Sheva bit her lower lip when she looked at James and saw this classy BMW 530i. Actually, her heart was touched by James' kindness."Don't think about
The look on Gerald Timothy's face was calm, and he said, "Apparently, you don't want to go back to the Timothy home after all.""I've already told you, there is no relationship between me and the Timothy family." James said flatly."If you don't want to go home I won't force you." Gerald said flatly, "The divorce with your mother was one of the things in my life that went wrong and also one of the most painful things for me. But, I will never admit my mistakes outright."James smiled sarcastically, "In that case, what did you ask me to come today?""I asked you to come today to tell you that I'm going home to London." Gerald said."I have bought a villa in the top villa area in Leeds, Villa L Xnow. In the basement parking lot are ten sports cars. Also, in the Swiss bank account, there are $900 million US dollars." Gerald said flatly, "You take it, even if you don't recognize me as your father, but you as my son should not be oppressed by people and live in poverty for a lifetime!""I
"I am Sheva's husband." James said flatly, "This poor quality necklace, you leave it for your own use!""What! You're Sheva's husband?""I heard Sheva's family found a poor husband for her, is that him?""Tsk, it turns out you're the Hilton family's famously poor son-in-law. Why did you become Sheva's assistant?"For a moment, the people in the room made hissing sounds, and laughed at James heartlessly. They had obviously heard of James.Paul's face was dumbfounded, then a very dismissive expression appeared on his face. "It turns out you're the famously poor James. Heard you became the poorest son-in-law in the Hilton family. You're a disgrace!" Paul sarcastically said, "Why did you forbid me from giving this necklace to Sheva? Are you jealous? I know you can't afford a hundred million dollar emerald necklace, right? HAHAH!" "HAHAH!"The people in the room were all laughing at James, all standing on Paul's side. James shook his head saying, "Your emerald necklace has a chemical coa
Robert caught a glimpse of James, then he made a mocking expression, "Oh, you are James, the poorest son-in-law in the Hilton family.""You have to remember, I'm in charge here." Robert said haughtily."Take Sheva to the private room upstairs, I want to have a glass with her and have some fun." Robert ordered his men.After he finished speaking, some of Robet's men already wanted to move to grab Sheva and take her."You're looking to die?!" James groaned and got angry.Thump!James attacked Robet. His knee pressed firmly on Robert's stomach, and choked Robert's neck until Robert's face turned red and he was almost suffocating."Aaaaa!" The expression on Robert's face was shocked and he did not expect that James would dare to move to attack him."Kneel down!" James' eyes bulged and he gave Robert an command.Robert seemed to have no strength. He was currently kneeling at James, but his expression was furious."You dare to hit me? Do you know who's behind me? Even the Hiltin family does
"What, I didn't hear wrong, right?" Robert and some of his men were shocked and showed shaken faces."Mr. James, I didn't expect you to be here too. What's the matter, sir?" Shogun wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked James respectfully.James said flatly, "You can ask your men...""Robert, are you offending Mr. James?" Shogun immediately asked and his tone of voice was cold. "Boss, I was just joking to Sheva, but James hit me right away." Robert said."You brought a lot of men, are you prepared to help Robert to attack me?" James asked Shogun flatly."No, Mr. James. I don't dare to attack you." Shogun's forehead appeared a big grain of sweat and said respectfully.James said flatly, "Shogun, take care of your men first.""Boss, how can you be so deferential to him? He's just the poorest son-in-law in the Hilton family!" Robert said, he still didn't understand the situation.Shogun looked at Robert, he looked at Robert like he wanted to stab him. Because, Robert said words tha
"Yes. I want to buy this house. But, I have some business, so please go help me take care of all the administration. Okay?" James said flatly and handed over a bank card, " The code for this card is 3 times 10. When you're done with the administration, call me."Having finished speaking, James turned to leave.The salesman received the card from James with a dumbfounded expression."He's so arrogant! He just threw a card at me!" The salesman's attitude belittled James and he continued to grumble. When he clearly sees the card in his hand, he immediately shows a surprised look on his face.It's a dark black bank card with a gold border, on top there's a series of small words like, VIP exclusive custom, Swiss Bank."There's no way....this black and gold savings card..." The salesman looked on dumbfounded. As someone who had been in the job for many years, he naturally knew this type of card. It is a card specially made by Swiss Bank for large clients with savings above a trillion dollar
Sheva bit the corner of her mouth, she didn't make a sound, outwardly looking strong but the hurt in her eyes was hard to cover. She had only been a small employee, working hard, struggling through her creative inspiration to gain the appreciation of the company's top brass and promotion to replacement Director, there was already a chance to succeed.Sheva put in days and nights of effort, painstakingly developing her own work, only to have it stolen by someone else the day it was released, and in the end, she was still blamed by the company.This is arguably one of the most painful things Sheva has experienced in her life. And she still has nowhere to turn to, she can only endure the baseless accusations of these people in the company!Luna Hilton was also there and joined in Sheva's accusations. "Or, you intentionally reduced the materials of your designs, right? You corrupted the money, and bought a car!""You're being careless, I never reduced the materials! This work has been mad
"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. Emily snorted in f
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
"Are you kidding, Miss Leen? We respect Tornado Corp, but you’re asking us to turn down a profitable deal and wait for your plan? That makes no sense," one of the businessmen on the floor said firmly. "Miss Leen, what you're saying is absurd. We have no reason or obligation to delay this just to wait for you," added another. The crowd began to voice their frustrations, growing tired of what they saw as Leen’s excessive demands. "Do you really expect us to sell off our investment projects and keep our major investors waiting just because you promise to bring something better? This feels like a joke! Is Tornado Corp the only one capable of developing large projects?" another businessman sneered. Leen's frustration started to show. Seeing the situation spiral out of control, she spoke coldly. "Everyone, I suggest you don't challenge Tornado Corp! If you do, things will not end well for you. If you dare sign a contract with Ocean Real Estate Corp, you’ll regret it." "What do you mean
"How foolish! This time, the project is the construction of a massive commercial plaza in Xo City, far larger than the previous one. Carlo didn’t have enough money last time. Can he compete with Tornado Corp this time?" The meeting room buzzed with discussions. Carlo's face was grim as he sank into his thoughts. The recent incident had caused a major stir in the business community, making him the subject of gossip—a heavy blow to the reputation of Ocean Real Estate Corp. Now, even insignificant figures dared to mock Carlo, eager to gain favor with Tornado Corp. "Mr. James, I failed to handle the issue last time. It was a great embarrassment for the company," Carlo said, bowing his head, his face flushed with shame. After all, Ocean Real Estate Corp was James's asset—Carlo was merely managing it. The company's damaged reputation weighed heavily on him, leaving him burdened with guilt. James remained calm and patted Carlo's shoulder. "Don’t dwell on the past. Focus on the opportuni
"I don’t know. Maybe James and Carlo have something going on,” said Sheva in a flat tone. “Hey, Sheva, let me tell you something. Don’t let James take advantage like this. Carlo is like the God of Fortune! You have to make the most of it,” Maria said in frustration, as if regretting Sheva’s lack of assertiveness. Sheva simply shook her head, not interested in responding. She knew James and Carlo had been friends for a long time. In fact, the last time she told her parents that it was James who introduced her to Ocean Corp, they didn’t believe her. Under Carlo's guidance, James arrived at the luxurious office and sat in the boss’s chair without hesitation. Ethan, who had followed Carlo from the beginning, watched nervously. “James, don’t you know the rules? Isn’t Mr. Carlo supposed to sit there? Why are you sitting in the boss’s chair like it’s yours?” Ethan scolded James angrily. In Ethan’s eyes, James had crossed the line. To him, James’s status and behavior were clearly not on
"Sheva, there's no need to talk to him," James said calmly, refusing to engage with Ethan. Ethan overheard the remark and immediately felt insulted. "Who the hell are you? I'm talking to Sheva. What gives you the right to butt in?" Ethan snapped, his voice filled with anger. Maria gave a nervous smile, trying to ease the tension. "Apologies, Mr. Ethan. He's just an assistant." "An assistant daring to speak out of turn?" Ethan sneered. "He should be fired on the spot." Maria tried to pacify the situation. "Mr. Ethan, our company holds you in high regard. If you have any requests, please feel free to express them." Ethan scoffed. "Fine, for Director Sheva’s sake, I won't make things too difficult. But I do have a few simple conditions." With an arrogant tone, Ethan continued, "During the seven days of the promotional shoot, I’ll need a 24-hour security team, reporters, and luxury transportation. I also demand to stay in the best hotel in town, and everything should be top-notch.
After hearing Shogun's report, James hung up the phone and headed straight to the exhibition hall, then took the elevator up. According to Shogun’s report from the previous night, based on what Dimom had said about their situation, the true leader of Tornado Corp had never appeared. Even as the Deputy Director of Tornado Corp, Dimom only knew the president who handled day-to-day business and the professional managers hired by the company. However, they didn’t know who the real boss was. This piqued James’s interest slightly. After receiving Shogun’s report, James ordered him to take the team to the docks and blow up Tornado Corp’s warehouse, with the goal of forcing the hidden figures to reveal themselves. As the elevator arrived at the 38th floor, the doors opened slowly. The exhibition hall on this floor was filled with middle-aged men and women in luxurious attire, coming and going. Red carpets lined the floor, and the room was decorated elegantly. Long tables were adorned wit
"If you dare to spout more nonsense, I'll kill you!" David said cruelly. "You don't even know if you want to live or die, and Mr. James still has so many questions for you. Do you think Tornado Corp is worth more than your life?" Dimom's face twitched, and his head began to spin. Without hesitation, David threw two punches at Dimom's face. Dimom, now struck, was terrified, completely overwhelmed by David’s menacing aura. David seemed like a madman, relentless in destroying his enemies. "If you don’t want to die, bow to Mr. James right now, then stay quiet and answer his questions obediently. If not, everyone here will be killed!" Shogun said coldly, making Dimom tremble in fear. "This..." The three men exchanged looks before glancing at James in terror and quickly bowing their heads. Initially, they thought James was just an incompetent son-in-law. But to their shock, they realized Shogun was actually James' subordinate, and he had taken down all of Rollo's bodyguards? It was un
“Did you hear that? Don't come any closer!” Alex shouted frantically to his men, he was getting scared and didn't dare to move.James gave Alex a sharp look. “When did you start working for Tornado Corp? Are you willing to sacrifice your dignity for money?” he asked, his voice low and full of anger.Alex tried to stay strong despite the fear clearly visible on his face. “James, don't play games! If you kill me, you won't get out of here alive either!” threatened Alex, though his tone sounded more like a plea.James smiled sarcastically. “I can't get out of here? We'll see,” he said as he slammed his knee into Alex's stomach, making Alex spit out blood. Alex's body was shaking violently, his face turning pale.Despite the pain, Alex still tried to maintain his dignity. “Don't be arrogant, James! This place is full of my men. Let me go, and I'll talk to Boss Dimom to give you a chance. Otherwise, you'll have nowhere to run today!” Alex shouted with all the courage he had left.However,
