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
Jay could not do anything but obey his orders.He had to listen to James or he’d be a dead man.He needed to use all of his resources to investigate this Doctor King and provide James with a detailed report before nightfall.After ending the call, James headed to Common Clinic.May was now May Caden.Her identity was James’s distant cousin.May sat on the chair with her hands cupping her face, staring blankly into the distance.When James arrived, she quickly got up and greeted him with a big smile, “Hi, James!”She looked more like a sweet neighborhood girl and nothing like a cold-blooded killer.“Hey.”James sat down beside her. “How are your injuries?”May smiled as she answered, “These are nothing. I’ve been in rougher shape during previous missions. I might be fully recovered in a few days.”James nodded, “Focus on your recovery. From now on, the situation in Cansington is only going to get messier. I’m worried that our enemies will start getting antsy and attack my wife. Your mis
The first thing he did after he woke up was head to the city.He drove to the city, found a busy noodle restaurant, and ordered a bowl of mutton noodles.This restaurant was doing well, the tables were all fully seated.James managed to snag the only empty table, so he sat there and waited for his order.Just then, a dark-haired woman in a long, black dress and a pair of sunglasses on her face arrived. She looked around for a seat, but only James’s table had another unoccupied seat.She exchanged polite smiles with James before she sat down in front of him.A waiter passed them by, and she ordered, “One mutton noodles, large, extra mutton, and noodles, please.”James did not pay attention to the person in front of him. He was occupied with a game on his mobile phone.Cynthia Dawn looked around curiously after she placed her order. Finally, her eyes settled on James, and she asked him seriously, “What game are you playing, sir?”James looked up from her phone at her.He said, “Am I that
James stared at the men in black suits before him.They were postured threateningly, and their veins popped in their foreheads, looking like well-fuelled fighting machines revving their engines.This piqued his interest.Who on earth was this girl, and why was she surrounded by so many bodyguards?Cynthia yelled angrily. “Luther, what the hell are you doing?!”Luther was a plainly dressed man around 40 years old. He had a diamond-shaped face and short hair.He responded courteously, “My lady, the master had ordered us to follow you around. He has some business to deal with right now, but he will arrive here tomorrow morning.”“I’m no longer a kid! Can he stop sending people to stalk me?”Cynthia was visibly upset. She pulled on James’ arm and stormed right into the group of bodyguards. She started punching and kicking them, and none of them dared to fight back.Luther was at a loss for what to do.He ordered, “Follow them.”“Yes, sir!”The group of men tailed the two.James was unwill
