"You two are no longer allowed to be involved in the film and television industry. With your kind of quality, what kind of production could you possibly create for the public?" James said coldly. “Huh? Mr. James, please forgive me! I was misled by this bastard! I have no issues with you, it was all his doing!” Mossa said while glancing at Hanny, then slammed his head on the floor in fear and started cursing Hanny beside him. “Mr. James, it's not what you think! Mr. Mossa was the one targeting you from the beginning. I had nothing to do with it!” Hanny defended herself in panic, and the two started blaming each other like barking dogs. James didn’t respond. He simply picked up a cup of tea and sipped it calmly. “Enough!” Carlo shouted angrily. The two instantly fell silent, their faces pale with fear. “Starting today, both of you are out of here!” Carlo said firmly. “You’ll start from the very bottom as interns at Ocean Real Estate Corp!” “Mr. Carlo… please give me a chance

Then she turned back to Carlo and said bluntly, “Mr. Carlo, please don’t let a nobody like him interfere when I’m talking to you. People like that, wearing such cheap clothes, don’t deserve to speak with me.” Shania pointed at James with disgust. “I’m only asking for something simple: honor the contract and pay the $500 million. Even if Ocean Real Estate Corp has breached it, I’m still willing to complete the filming process for this drama. I will continue to support your group’s reputation,” Shania added with a playful tone. “But if not, I guarantee your group will lose far more than $500 million!” Carlo’s expression began to darken. “What do you mean by that?” In all his years in business, this was the first time he had encountered an artist openly threatening the company owner. “What do I mean?” Shania raised her eyebrow casually. “Mr. Carlo, let me explain clearly. Tornado Corp paid handsomely to recruit me as their new face. I only considered this collaboration out

“Haha.” Nathan’s expression grew even more mocking. “I really don’t understand how you can be so confident in front of me. Of course, I know some of your secrets. Besides your luck, what do you even have? A small company? The boss wife? You're just leeching off others, James. In the end, you're only following Bella’s path to get close to Carlo from Ocean Real Estate Corp, aren’t you?” “Do you really think your tiny bit of power and influence means anything to me?” Nathan said arrogantly. “You don’t even realize how powerful Bop City is—where Molo Corp is based. Carlo? He’s just a small-time local rich guy in our eyes.” “And?” James replied flatly. “And?” Nathan leaned in. “Seems like you still don’t realize how seriously I take this. I’m in love with Bella. And you, who relies on her for your future, had better get on your knees and beg me if you want to survive.” “I came here to give you a chance, James. A chance to kneel. Got it?” he added with a sinister smile. James scoffed

James accidentally started looking into Molo Corp, a company based in the city of Bop. He had only heard Bella mention that Molo Corp was a large consortium founded by a powerful figure who had migrated from the city of Xo to Bop, and from that alone, James already understood what was going on. There was no exception—groups like this clan were always transferring their assets out of the city and fully integrating themselves overseas. No matter how grand their publicity looked, at their core, they were nothing more than lapdogs kneeling and licking bones in Bop. “What right do you have to talk about the Molo family? I’m a nobleman in the city of Bop!” Nathan said proudly. “You humiliated me today, and I swear I’ll return it ten times over—no, a hundred times!” Nathan continued arrogantly. James kicked Nathan hard, slamming him against the wall. He crashed to the ground and coughed up two mouthfuls of blood. Then James stepped forward, grabbed Nathan by the head, and looked down a

The next morning, James headed to the Hilton Building early. Yesterday, he had still been discussing jewelry designs with Sheva, but there were a few details that needed fixing. He planned to help Sheva finish her work over the next two days. Honk! Honk! The taxi he was riding in came to a sudden stop in a narrow alley. Two off-road vehicles were parked right in the middle of the street with no owners in sight, completely blocking the entrance. “Sir, I can’t go through. This alley is really narrow. The Hilton Building is just across at the end of this lane. Would you mind walking the rest of the way?” the taxi driver said politely. “All right.” James nodded, paid the fare, and got out. It was only about a hundred meters away. As James walked, his phone suddenly rang. But his attention was caught by two figures in black clothing on the roof of a building to his left. His danger instincts immediately kicked in. Without thinking, James turned and ran at lightning speed. B
