Outside Glorious Hotel… Lex wore an anxious expression. So did John’s family. John approached James and pleaded, “James, since you were able to find accommodation for us at the last minute, is there any way you stop Montgomery from getting charged in court? He crossed an Oswald. In order to get a better standing with the Xenoses, the Oswalds broke his leg. His condition could deteriorate if he goes to prison.” “You really think he can help us, John?” Tommy wore a scornful look. It was not as if he had something personal against James. The man was simply a good-for-nothing son-in-law. What else could he do besides leech off the Callahans’ wealth? Megan chimed in to add fuel to the fire, “He wouldn’t have married into the family if he was truly capable of anything.” “That’s right. What were you thinking about relying on trash? There must be something wrong with your head.” Jolie joined along in putting down James. “John, what are you doing begging this loser for help?”
“One.” “Two.” Tommy grew more incensed as he heard Christopher count down. Even though he was doing nothing other than just standing on the nearby road, the staff of the Glorious Hotel had come to chase him away. “I’d like to see you try and chase us away..” He crossed his arms defiantly. He still thought his status as a Callahan conferred him some sort of impunity. “Three.” After counting to three, Christopher turned to the security guards. “Beat him to a pulp.” A dozen security guards armed with electric batons charged toward Tommy and descended upon the insufferably arrogant man. A few Callahans stepped forward in an attempt to defend him. However, they were beaten up too. James sat on a flight of stairs nearby smoking his cigarette. He paid no heed to the commotion. Tommy deserved it. It was about time he learned a lesson. Christopher grinned smugly at the sight of the Callahans being physically assaulted. The Watsons and Xenoses would be pleased to he
Christopher did not expect Glorious Hotel to suddenly belong to Transgenerational Group. Somehow, the Callahans must have bribed someone inside Transgenerational Group to help them make arrangements for accommodation. Now that the top brass had found out, they were calling for a meeting. Tyron wanted him to be the scapegoat for this fiasco. Christopher’s career would be finished. “Mr. Woodrow, you have to vouch for me. I still have a family to feed.” Tyron patted Christopher’s back and assured him. “Don’t worry. As long as I’m here, I’ll make sure you won’t starve to death. After this incident blows over, I promise to get you your job back.” Hearing this, Christopher sighed in relief. The management team of Glorious Hotel was waiting at the front door of the hotel. They were waiting for their boss’ arrival. Apart from the general manager, the rest of the management team was unaware that the hotel had been taken over by someone else. Soon, a business sedan arrived.
Scarlett’s face immediately twisted in anger. She walked over to him and slapped him hard across his face. Smack! Christopher could not retaliate. He hung his head and apologized profusely, “I’m sorry, Ms. Brooks. I wasn’t aware that the Watsons and the Xenoses had blacklisted the Callahans. If I had known, I wouldn’t have arranged the rooms for the in the first place.” Tyron made a small satisfied smile. Christopher had shouldered all the blame. Contrary to Christopher’s expectations, Scarlett began to give him an ear full. “Who cares about the Watsons and the Xenoses? I don’t give a damn about the Five Provinces Business Alliance! The Callahans are the VIPs of Transgenerational Group. Do you seriously think we’d comply with the Xenoses and Watson’s demands so easily?” “…” Christopher could only gape at Scarlett, shocked and speechless. Tyron was flustered at the realization. After a few seconds, Tyron walked over to Christopher and kicked him. He yelled sternly at
They were dumbfounded. They had just been thrown out in the most insulting and inhospitable manner. What was with this dramatic change in attitude? Was James responsible for this? Christopher walked over to Lex and slapped himself in front of the elder Callahan. “I’m so sorry, Mr. Callahan. This was all my fault. I had no idea you were a VIP of Transgenerational Group. If I had known, I wouldn’t have acted so disrespectfully..” Tyron, too, walked over and apologized, “This too was a mistake on our part. He has been fired.” Layla looked over at Tyron and said coldly, “You’re fired too.” “What?” Tyron was stunned. Then, he cried out, “Ms. Nora, this had nothing to do with me. This was all Christopher’s fault. All this while, I have dedicated myself to the company…” “Pack your bags and get lost.” Layla did not entertain his whining further. If this debacle was enough to get Scarlett Brooks to appear, it spoke volumes about the influence the Callahans had. This applie
James drove toward the Oswalds’ villa. Cansington was in disarray, and various parties were involved behind it. It would be difficult to rescue Montgomery through his own connections. Additionally, he had no government contacts aside from Blithe King. As the commander-in-chief of the five armies, his lofty position was a coveted gem for many ambitious people. If he made even a single mistake, he could be brought down. There was only one way to save Montgomery. He just had to make the one who sent him to prison get him out. Soon, he arrived at the Oswalds’ villa. It was almost three in the morning. However, the lights were still on the second floor of the villa. James got off his car and approached the outer perimeter of the villa. Putting his palms against the wall, he leaped two meters into the air and into the villa’s surroundings. Then, he climbed the wall to the second floor and reached the balcony of the room which still had its lights on. In the room… Colson
The female star immediately got up and looked at Colson. She was stunned. She began to do anything she could. However, no matter what she did, there was no reaction. “Argh! What do I do now?!” Colson cried out in desperation. Meanwhile, James headed to Stefon’s room. Stefon was asleep. Hearing the noise of someone crawling in from the window, he was immediately startled awake. He quickly switched on the lights and pulled out a dagger from behind the bed. He yelled, “Who’s there?” “What’s wrong, Stefon? Why are you screaming in the middle of the night?” A beautiful woman lay beside him. She looked at Stefon in irritation. Upon seeing James approaching them, she screamed. “Aaaaah!” James walked over to them and sat on a stool. “James, you piece of trash! What are you doing here at my house?” Seeing it was James, Stefon’s blood boiled with anger. He pulled out his phone to call the police. James lit a cigarette and said nonchalantly, “Stefon Oswald, I would sug
Thea was responsive. She hugged James back and snuggled in his arms.James’ thoughts were running at a thousand kilometers an hour. He tossed them away and started to kiss her.sss“Ah,” Thea gasped in shock as she pushed him away.James licked his lips as he smiled satisfactorily.He wanted to have his way with his beautiful wife, but after giving it some thought, he decided to wait until after their wedding day. It’d be better if everything was settled by then.“It’s nothing, good night.”James grinned like a schoolboy in love. A kiss was enough for him for now.He closed his eyes as he wrapped his arms around Thea.Thea blushed. She could not help but smile happily watching this wonderful man sleep beside her.The night slipped away silently.The next morning.James woke up in the afternoon.Lex, Howard, John, and Benjamin were in his house. Other than them, none of the other Callahan family members showed up.When James walked out of his groggily, he quickly snapped awake after seei
