The nose-piercing aroma of wine drenched James' shirt, his face felt a little hot.

There was no one to help James. All of them were staring at him with cynical eyes.

James' gaze became sharp, but he remembered Sheva's face who was working hard for her father. So, he had to restrain himself from making a mess here. James had to be patient, and he could only endure his own annoyance.

"Fine, I cheers for you!" James wiped the remaining wine off his face, and slowly stood up.

Tommy didn't expect that James could patiently endure him not replying. The corner of Tommy's lips turned up in a sardonic smile. Inwardly, he secretly laughed.

When James stood up, Tommy suddenly backed up and pretended to fall down, as he deliberately overturned the wine and whiskey drinks on the table that was a banquet for the guests.

Buzz!

The table was overturned, dozens of bottles of expensive wine and whiskey were all smashed. It caused a stir in this entire room.

"James, you're a coward! You dare push me and try to hit me?!" Tommy shouted loudly.

"What's wrong?" Luna asked, walking over. Sheva followed beside her. Including Hans-Luna's groom.

All the guests in the hall surrounded the scene.

"Luna, today is your wedding day. But, James dared to push and hit me. He wants to rebel!" Tommy said with an angry expression on his face, and he stared at James viciously. He looked as if he had been severely bullied by James.

"James, what's wrong with you?" Hans asked while holding back his anger.

"Tommy fell by himself. I didn't push him." James said honestly.

"Then why did Tommy say that you pushed and hit him?" Hans asked again with a dark and cold aura.

James shrugged his shoulders. Then he said, "People who were in this place witnessed that Tommy fell by himself. If you don't believe me, just ask them."

"Hans, James is lying! Just now, I was cheering with them, and strangely enough James immediately came to push and hit me. Everyone saw it!"

Then, Hans looked at the people who were there and asked them. "Everyone, how is the truth? What did you see?" Hans asked the other son-in-law of the Hilton family.

"As Tommy said, James deliberately pushed and tried to hit Tommy. Maybe James had too much to drink so he was drunk."

"Yeah. The smell of wine from James' mouth was so strong, he alone drank wine until his whole body was wet. Then, Tommy came over to make cheers with us, but James shoved him right away!"

"Yeah. That's what we saw."

Some of the Hilton family's sons-in-law said seriously. Of course they would support Tommy, even if Tommy lied.

James' expression was shocked. The corners of his mouth turned up in a painful smile.

James didn't explain anymore. Because for him it was useless. A weak person like him would not be heard and believed by them.

In the Hilton family, James was the one who had the lowest position. Even if he wasn't wrong, others would still say that he was!

"What a shame!"

"Why did Mr. Hilton choose a son-in-law like James? Who is useless and can only make noise!"

The guests watching talked and satirized James dispassionately.

"James, you really are useless!" Sheva said angrily. She felt that this was very embarrassing. Certainly, Luna would not want to help Sheva's father's business problem, since James had made a scene here.

"James! Hurry up and apologize to Hans and Luna!" Sheva said angrily. The trouble James had caused her was embarrassing.

James looked into his wife's teary eyes. After that, reluctantly while gritting his teeth, James said, "Hans, Luna, I apologize. Today I was wrong for making a mess at your wedding."

Off to the side, Tommy Hilton was almost laughing madly. He was so happy.

"James, you're an adult man. You've made a mistake, but you don't take responsibility! You were wrong, but earlier you slandered Tommy. I look down on people like you the most!" Luna said coldly.

Hans' face also became upset, because at his wedding there was a riot because of James. In fact, the guests who came were big people or famous figures.

"James, I don't accept your apology! But, today I can't hit you either. So, get out of here! In the future, don't ever appear in front of me ever!" Hans said angrily.

James sighed. He didn't care about the strange looks of the guests around him. He turned to walk outside.

When James turned around, Luna said to Sheva, "Sheva, don't you want me to help your father through the bankruptcy of your family business? I'll help you, provided that when you go home, you divorce this useless James! After that, I will help your father's business."

James stopped his walking, but he didn't look back at Luna. Two seconds later, he was walking out again.

After exiting the villa, James lit a cigarette. He was guessing what Sheva would do next.

"Let's go home!" Behind James, there was a familiar voice. James turned around, and he saw Sheva. There were still puddles of tears in her eyes.

James said, "Home? What about your mission to help your father?"

Sheva said angrily, "I told you that we were getting a divorce. But it was me who chose to get divorced, and not them being forced to get divorced. I don't want to be forced."

"I'll think of another way to help my father. They've insulted and slandered you, that's insulting me too!"

James was moved. He didn't expect that Sheva would side with him.

"James, I'm sorry." Sheva said while wiping her tears. "When I was in the hall, I was too angry. But after calming down and thinking, you wouldn't have dared to hit Tommy. Because, you never drink wine or any kind of alcohol."

James asked, "You believe me?"

Sheva nodded, "Yeah. I believe you."

"Thank you for believing in me," James said. In his heart, James promised not to let anyone who believed in him down.

Sheva's house was on the edge of Leeds, it was a real estate 20 years ago, that's why it looked old and shabby.

Once inside the house, the expressions on Eden Hilton and Maria Jil's faces were very serious looking at James. They are James' father and mother-in-law.

"James, you still dare to come back here?" Maria smiled sarcastically.

  • Chapter 229-Dasqan

    Dasqan smiled confidently. Based on the information he had, James was just an ordinary young man. The fact that James survived the surprise assassination was already impressive. Still, Dasqan believed that didn’t compare to true power earned through elite training and hidden strength. “If you remain stubborn, then I have no choice but to end you now,” Dasqan said coldly. “No matter who’s backing you, crossing them was suicide. You have no idea how deep the Mark family’s power runs. Not even your supporters can save you.” “Oh?” James seemed intrigued. “I’m curious about your background too.” James had already guessed. Dasqan was probably sent because of the incident at the Mark family’s residence. Maybe this was the work of Mireya’s uncle. Was he really chasing him all the way out here? At first, James didn’t want to get involved in the Mark family’s internal affairs, especially not with the powerful forces behind them. “My background?” Dasqan sneered. “If you knew who was

  • Chapter 228-He Wants Spare James' Life

    “No, no! Mr. Erick, Mr. James! I... I can still drink! I really can!” Juan stammered. His face was pale with fear. He quickly got up and grabbed a large bowl of white liquor, then gulped it down like a starving dog, drinking wildly without caring about his surroundings. The bitter alcohol was forced down his throat. Half-conscious and half-drunk, both Juan and Malvin cursed the Somaz and Edwin families in their hearts. They were convinced those two fools should be dragged here to suffer with them. While chugging his third bowl, Juan finally collapsed. He fell to the ground with a groan, tears in his eyes, and his mouth rambling nonsense. He had reached the peak of drunken madness. Malvin wasn’t much better. His face was flushed red, his bloated belly tight, and he too eventually dropped to the floor, groaning in pain. James slowly stood up. He looked at Erick and said calmly, “Take care of the rest. I’m leaving now.” “Yes, Sir,” Erick replied respectfully, then escorted Jame

  • Chapter 227-They were helpless in front of James

    “Ah! Okay, okay! I’ll sit down, I’ll sit down.” Juan was so terrified that his whole body trembled as he sat, as if he wasn’t even aware of what he was doing. Malvin was even worse. He picked up his chopsticks to hide his panic, but the hand holding them was shaking badly. Both of them were scared out of their minds. And rightfully so. James was like a silent god! Thinking about what they had just said to James, Juan and Malvin almost wanted to slap themselves for being so reckless toward someone so powerful. How were they supposed to survive this? “Mr. James, I’m sorry… what just happened was a total misunderstanding,” Juan said with a flattering smile. “Mr. James, you are truly great… please ignore us, we deserve to be punished. We deserve to die.” Without hesitation, Juan slapped himself twice while keeping a forced smile on his face. Malvin followed, even slapping Juan’s face while endlessly flattering James like their lives depended on it. And aside from James’

  • Chapter 226-You Two Are Idiots!

    "Do you know Mr. Erick?" Juan looked shocked and stared at Erick with disbelief. He never expected James to have any kind of connection with Erick. "James, you’re really out of line. Even if you do know Mr. Erick, and even if he personally invited you to sit, that would already be a huge honor. But you actually chose the main seat? Are you serious?" Juan shouted. "When you saw Mr. Erick come in, you didn’t even stand up and show respect?" In Juan’s eyes, James was nothing but trash who didn’t belong in a place like this. Maybe he had some luck and got introduced by Erick, but that still didn’t give him the right to act arrogant. "Mr. Erick, I know him. He’s a useless son-in-law. I don’t know how he managed to get close to you, but he’s just a low-class guy. If you keep associating with someone like him, your reputation will suffer," Juan said in a flattering tone. Erick’s expression slowly turned serious. His eyebrows twitched. He couldn’t believe Juan dared to say something l

  • Chapter 225-At VIP Room

    Outside, right at the hotel entrance, Erick sat in the back seat of a black Lincoln. His expression was calm but authoritative. After a while, the car moved forward to the entrance of the resort hotel. Juan and Malvin got out of their car and quickly walked toward the Lincoln’s window. They bent down slightly with polite smiles and looked at Erick from outside the window. “Mr. Erick, we’ve arrived. We’re not sure what the purpose of your invitation is today,” said Juan with a very respectful tone. “Sir, if you have any instructions or messages, we are ready to listen and carry them out sincerely,” Malvin added with a smile. The car window slowly rolled down. Erick looked at the two of them and said calmly, “I called you here today to introduce you to someone very important. Your only job is to be respectful and polite. Understand?” “Yes, Sir!” Juan replied with enthusiasm, patting his chest. “This is a golden opportunity you’ve given us. We won’t let you down!” They knew

  • Chapter 224-The Man in the Main Seat

    At that moment, Maria and Eden arrived, looking upset. They stared at James with angry eyes. "James, what did you just say? Who told you to say something like that? Are you trying to ruin everything?" Maria snapped. She's very angry now. "You are so foolish man!" added Maria. At this moment, she really wanted to hit James, but she held back. "I suggested that Sheva change the name of Hilton Jewelry Group. It doesn’t matter whether it still uses the Hilton name or not," James replied indifferently. "It doesn’t matter? Easy for you to say when you’re not the one taking the risk!" Maria shouted. "Sheva’s father even got drunk trying to settle things peacefully, and you just messed everything up." "You really don’t want this family to live in peace," Maria continued. "Sheva, don’t listen to this crazy man. He’s just a troublemaker." James looked at Sheva and said calmly, "Sheva, once you get home, think of a new name and change the group’s name." "It’s not a big deal. I’ll
