Nolan looked at James with a calm but pointed expression. “So, I’ll suggest this,” he said slowly, making sure James understood every word. “Cherry can pay you your money in installments. She can also sign an undertaking that she would be paying you weekly and for no reason should she miss any of the days she promises to pay.”James scoffed loudly, crossing his arms. “I don’t think I like that idea,” he said sharply, glaring at Nolan. “Why should I agree to that? When she spent the money, she spent it all at once. So why should I collect it in bits? It makes no sense at all.”Nolan raised an eyebrow, a faint smirk playing on his lips. “But she doesn’t have any money to pay you right now,” he replied calmly. “So you clearly have nothing else to do except accept this offer.”James’s jaw tightened, and he opened his mouth to argue, but Nolan’s confident tone and the truth in his words left him with nothing to say. He knew Nolan was right. There was no other way he could get the money fro

James turned to the touts who were still dragging Cherry roughly.“Carry on with what you were doing,” he said coldly, completely ignoring Debby as he turned his back on her.“No… no… please, Debby, save me!” Cherry cried out desperately. “Don’t let them take me away. Please help me!”Debby started to panic. Her heart raced as she watched Cherry struggle in their grip. She didn’t know what to do anymore. She looked back at Gabriel and Nolan, then back at Cherry, then again at Nolan and Gabriel. Her eyes were filled with fear and confusion.Suddenly, she ran toward Nolan.“Nolan, please do something,” she begged. “You can’t let them take Cherry away like this.”But to her shock, Nolan said nothing. His face was cold and unreadable, as if everything happening in front of him meant nothing to him.Debby turned to Gabriel immediately. “Gabriel, please talk to Nolan. He can do something about this. He shouldn’t let them take Cherry away. Only God knows what they will do to her.”Nolan roll

“No… no… that can’t be possible,” Cherry said in shock. Her body started shaking. “Daddy, try to talk to them. This can’t happen.”Her mind was spinning. He had just called her earlier and told her that investors were already sending mails. She had been so happy and relieved. And now, all of a sudden, they were pulling out again? She was confused, this was too much.She started sweating heavily as her hands trembled. The noise she could hear over the phone only made it worse.“I have to go now, Cherry,” her dad said quietly. “I’ll talk to you later.”Before she could say anything else, the call ended.“Dad… dad… no… wait…” Cherry said desperately, staring at her phone. But there was no response. He had already ended the call.Her heart sank.“So, what’s going on?” James asked coldly the moment he noticed she was done with the call. “Am I getting my money or not?”“I… I…” Cherry stammered, her lips trembling. She didn’t know what to say.“This girl isn’t ready to pay me my money,” Jame

“Please,” Cherry cried out, her voice shaking, “you need to stop this madness, James. I don’t have that kind of money to pay you back. Also, you decided to spend that money on me yourself. I didn’t force you to do it. So why are you doing this to me?”Her words came out rushed as tears gathered in her eyes.James scoffed loudly. “Oh, yes, you’re right about that,” he said coldly. “You didn’t force me to spend that much on you. But you only came to use me for my money. How can I spend such an amount on you, and the next thing you’re saying is that we can no longer be seeing each other? Then you blocked me everywhere.”He stepped closer to her, his face filled with anger. “You think I’m just going to let that go? I only spend my money on girls I believe would end up with me. So since we’re not ending up together, pay me back my money. Immediately.”Cherry didn’t know what to say anymore. She knew she had messed up badly. She knew she was wrong, but that didn’t change the fact that she c

James was shocked when he realized that the person Cherry was holding onto was Nolan. His eyes widened slightly before his face darkened. How could her boyfriend be Nolan, of all people? He clearly remembered the first time Cherry and Nolan had met. That meeting at the restaurant was supposed to be the last time they ever crossed paths. Yet here they were. It hadn’t even been long since that day, and they were already dating. The thought alone made James furious.If Cherry’s boyfriend had been any other guy, he wouldn’t have cared this much. He would have laughed it off and continued with what he planned. But the fact that it was Nolan made his blood boil. It felt insulting and felt personal.At the same time, James couldn’t ignore what had happened at the restaurant between Nolan and his father. That incident had been burned into his memory. From that moment, James knew Nolan wasn’t as ordinary as he looked. There was something about him. Something dangerous. Someone whose power he c

But Cherry needed to be sure. She needed closure. So she decided to see James one last time.Luckily for her, James agreed to meet her gladly. He took her out, they ate together, and after that, he took her shopping. Cherry bought a lot of things, pretending everything was fine. Then they went to a bar, where Cherry made sure James drank a lot. She waited patiently until he was drunk enough, then she asked him again about the managing director position.James told her the truth. Everything that happened that day was real. He no longer had any say in his father’s company and hat was the closure Cherry needed.She excused herself, telling him she was going to the bathroom, and left him there at the bar. When she got home, she sent him a message, telling him it was over between them and that he should never contact her again.Since then, she had been avoiding James completely.To her, both James and Nolan were no longer needed in her life. In her eyes, they were both poor losers.James,
