"Yes, sir! I will be happy to do your command." Dicky said with a smile. For him, making the Hilton Jewelry Group company go bankrupt was easy.

Hilton Jewelry Group was the main company or business owned by Edwin Hilton's family. 80% of their wealth comes from the jewelry business. Since Tommy had dared to attack his wife James' family, James had no hesitation in making their business go bankrupt! James had wanted to do this for a long time, but this was the first time he was so angry after hearing that Sheva had fainted.

***

Leeds City, Main Hospital.

James rushed over, and arrived at room 009. The room he had been told by his mother-in-law where Sheva and James' father-in-law were admitted.

"You see, it's all because you offended people at Luna and Hans' wedding!" Maria continued to blame James.

James didn't speak, he looked at the hospital bed. His father-in-law's face was full of sadness, bruises on his face, his hands still wrapped in gauze.

On the edge of the bed, Sheva sat with a haggard face, as if she was very tired. It turned out that she had woken up from her stupor.

"Sheva, are you injured?" James asked with a serious face.

Sheva said, "I'm fine. Just now the doctor checked me, fortunately there are no bone injuries, only external injuries. My hand is a little slippery."

The anger in James' heart flared up remembering the faces of Tommy and the rest of the Edwin Hilton family. James asked quietly, "What exactly happened today?"

Sheva wasn't willing to bring it up, so he sighed.

"Today, Sheva and her dad went to the factory to take care of matters, and it turned out that they were able to get all the creditor rights of the factory, and became the largest creditor. He incited the workers to dismantle the factory equipment. Then, Sheva's father came forward to argue, but he was injured by two workers." Maria said slowly, "Sheva and I went to ask Tommy, but he still insulted our family. He looked down on us. Now, all the factory equipment has been diverted away by them."

"Sheva's father's factory is gone, our house was demolished too!" Maria was getting angry, "They are so cruel! James, you are the one who harmed our family!"

James' eyes took on a cold gleam. It was clear that Tommy had been prepared, he had acted ruthlessly, not only did he destroy the Sheva family's economic source property business, but even the house the Sheva family lived in was sealed by him.

"The house collateral and factory collateral are now all in Tommy's hands. He has said that if you divorce Sheva, he will return all our family assets. I have agreed to it, and you should sign here if you have the heart to help our family." Maria said dispassionately.

"Never mind!" Eden Hilton on the bed said darkly, "Maria, it's all me who's useless, I can't support this family, don't blame others anymore."

"Tommy did something so cruel, because he just wanted to see the ridiculousness of our family. Eden said slowly, "This time we have to leave this city, we start a new life, there is no need to live by seeing their faces anymore."

This time, Maria didn't speak anymore, she was just silent.

"James, you finally dare to show up too?" At this time, outside the room came a reproachful voice.

Tommy came, he was wearing sunglasses, wearing a suit, and behind still followed two bodyguards.

"My previous suggestion, how was it considered? What about uncle and aunt?" Tommy asked casually.

"You have to know, I'm doing this for the good of your family. You see this son-in-law of yours, he can't do anything to help your already struggling business. He's completely useless! So, I'm helping you to get rid of him from the family this time." Tommy said haughtily.

"Uncle Eden, today if I hadn't come to your factory on time, you might have been beaten to death by the workers you didn't pay," Tommy said again proudly.

"You shut up, don't play the good guy here, it's sickening!" Sheva yelled angrily at Tommy, her expression one of disgust at Tommy.

"You're really ungrateful!" said Tommy, after which he sighed, "I was kind enough to help take away all of Uncle Eden's creditor rights to protect him. Imagine if someone else took care of this debt, Uncle Eden would have been beaten to death!"

"I did this to help you guys." Tommy said slowly.

"Sheva, you take it easy, don't worry about not meeting anyone else. I have many rich unmarried friends. I can introduce them to you. I'll help you get married to a rich guy!" Tommy continued.

"You get out of here!" Sheva said angrily at Tommy until her body trembled, she couldn't take this humiliation.

"You're kicking me out? Hahaha!" Tommy laughed, and then he looked at Eden. "Uncle Eden, don't say I didn't give you a chance. But it's you who didn't appreciate it. Tomorrow, I'll release the creditors' rights, and you'll be charged with debts by ruthless people!"

"You're talking nonsense!" Sheva said emotionally.

Tommy flashed a cocky smile.

"Have you said enough yet? If so, please leave!" said James. He looked at Tommy expressionlessly.

"What a loser! You also dare to tell me to leave?" Tommy's face changed, he looked at James with a cold stare. He didn't expect James to dare to him.

"How dare you!" Tommy suddenly exploded, and he threw a slap at James.

However, James raised a hand and squeezed Tommy's wrist, and there was a the sound of bones being twisted.

Thump!

"Ah! It hurts!" Tommy made a tragic sound, he was in such pain that sweat poured down his forehead.

Then, Tommy half-kneeled in front of James, his whole body trembling, he seemed to receive so much pain.

James snorted coldly and removed his hand.

Tommy's body weakened and suddenly fell on the floor. His whole arm felt cramped.

"Shit! James, you dare touch me!" Tommy gave James a sharp look, "I'll make you regret being born in this world!"

"Your family is already poor and broken! No one can help you!" Tommy stood up, and said with a cold expression.

"I've given you a chance, those of you who don't appreciate it, just wait for the next destruction!" Tommy finished threatening, then left angrily.

"James, you still dare to hit Tommy!" Maria wailed, "Tommy is getting angry because of what you did to him earlier!"

"You're too rash, hitting people can't solve problems." Sheva also said to James.

"I'll take care of this problem, you don't need to worry." James said flatly, "Tommy can't do anything anymore."

"Heh, what can you do?" Maria smiled sarcastically, and she said again, "What can you do?!"

James gave his mother-in-law a quick glance with an expressionless face.

Maria was immediately frightened by James' gaze, she felt that James was a little different today.

"Take it easy, there's me," James told his wife.

Sheva's heart warmed. Today, James gave her a feeling she had never felt before.

"Okay." Sheva nodded her head silently.

***

At the same time, elsewhere. At the Hilton Jewelry Group, Pearl Building.

Everyone was passing by, the employees were hurried and urgent, expressions panicked, like there was a big problem.

21st floor, meeting room. The directors of the Hilton company were holding an emergency meeting. A long wide meeting table, there sat the high-ranking officials of the Hilton family with money and power, all arrived on the spot.

"What's going on? Why is the company suddenly in such a big mess?"

"What's the matter? I was just playing golf, and received a lot of calls, rushing to the meeting. All the big clients want to end their cooperation with our company!"

"The company has such a big movement, have we offended other higher-ups? If there's no reason, why the sudden drop!"

In the meeting room full of discussions, one shareholder after another spoke with anxious expressions, looking very upset.

Edwin Hilton, the CEO of the company was flustered. "Everyone, let's not make a fuss, discuss serious issues first, there will be a way to solve the problem." His expression was very bad, he had been managing this company for many years, it had always run smoothly, but this was the first time he had faced such a dangerous situation.

The meeting room instantly became silent, everyone's expressions were anxious to see Edwin Hilton and waited for him to speak.

"Mr. CEO, the statistics you want are out." Just then, a young female secretary wearing glasses and carrying several copies of important documents walked in.

"Please explain, the company today actually lost how many big clients and how many old clients terminated the contract. " Edwin said helplessly to his secretary, his expression slightly tense. His company received a huge loss all of a sudden.

The female secretary held a document and said seriously, "Mr. CEO, according to statistics, today our company's shares in the stock market have fallen by more than 30%..it has plummeted. It's causing fear in the small shareholders, everyone is calling asking to withdraw their shares."

"On top of that, our jewelry sales lines in dozens of cities all broke down today. Almost simultaneously forced to terminate contracts."

"Also, the jewelry industry in various cities, two dozens of well-known companies, as well as the Jewelry Business Association, the Trade Center, all announced together that they will no longer cooperate with Hilton Jewelry Group."

"Our company, is receiving a great crisis of confidence...!" The young female secretary spoke up to explain.

"What? The company has reached this stage? Edwin, you said the day before yesterday that shareholder dividends would increase, are you lying to us?" A shareholder who usually doesn't ask questions about company business, had a panicked expression and immediately asked.

Edwin Hilton's face was pale, and he didn't know which high-ups he had offended, so he acted badly towards the Hilton Jewelry Group.

Edwin Hilton looked at his second brother, Jonny Hilton. And he said, "Jonny, do you have any other solutions? Now that the main problem is that the whole industry is sanctioning together, it's very clear that someone is doing this to our company."

Jonny Hilton was puzzled, "Now we're supposed to find out who's controlling all of this in the background."

"Who has such great ability? Can they put the Hilton company on the verge of bankruptcy in a day?" said Jonny.

Seeing that the two power holders were also helpless, the meeting room became even more agitated, the shareholders were full of discussions and endless arguments.

Just then, another female secretary wearing glasses entered the meeting room, an urgent look on her face. "Mr. CEO, someone is calling. He wants to meet with you to discuss our company's crisis!"

    The response was met with bursts of laughter. “Hahaha! This man is really good at bragging without blinking!” “So calm when he lies, impressive.” “Crazy, his claims are way too big. Buying a building in Kopus Star City? His face is thick enough.” Everyone there laughed at James. Not a single person believed he could do it. If he really bought a building in that area, it would mean he had cash flow in the trillions. Even Mariana could not do that easily, let alone a so called useless son-in-law from Leeds like James. His wife came to the reunion by taxi, but her husband arrived with a Bentley and bodyguards? It all looked so fake and showy. “Sheva, your husband is a huge liar. Do you really believe him?” Mariana asked, looking at her with mockery. “I believe him,” Sheva answered without hesitation. Immediately everyone stared at her with disbelief. “Sheva, you are too naive. James does not even know the price of a single building in Kopus! I have seen many men like

    “So arrogant. Huh.” Mariana sneered, her eyes full of mockery. She had no idea what James was really thinking, but his cold attitude clearly irritated her. She thought James would panic and beg for forgiveness once he realized who she was. But to her surprise, James showed no sign of respect at all. “Sheva, tell James to come here,” Mariana said in a low, cold voice as she handed her phone to Sheva. “Where are you, honey?” James asked warmly from the other end. Sheva replied softly, “My husband, I’m at Trandana Commercial Plaza. Please come here.” “Well, wait for me there, honey.” James ended the call. “James is really stupid, isn’t he?” Mariana said sharply. “When he gets here, I’ll teach him a little lesson. He needs to learn who he should respect.” Laughter broke out around her. Mariana was used to being admired and obeyed. So when James dared to ignore her, it felt like a slap to her pride in public. “Men like James are all talk,” said a young man with a disgusted

    To Mariana, the Sheva who was once adored by everyone was now nothing more than a joke. “This isn’t necessary. My husband is busy with a lot of things. Besides, he isn’t really close to everyone here,” Sheva said softly, trying to refuse politely. She had no intention of dragging James into such an embarrassing situation. “What could possibly keep him that busy?” a young woman scoffed. “If it’s about business, just ask your husband to come. Besides, what business deal can’t be handled through Mariana? Her influence in Dandelion is huge.” “That’s right, Sheva. We’re all curious about that so-called rejected son-in-law. What kind of qualifications does he have to marry our campus beauty?” a man said mockingly. “You still dare to talk about business? Sheva, stop making things up. You didn’t even have a car when you arrived in Dandelion. What could that useless man James possibly do?” a flamboyant young man sneered sharply. Sheva felt completely cornered. With Mariana being the most

  • Chapter 279-Call Your Husband

    Mariana gave a mocking smile. “Sheva, stop denying it. Everyone already knows. I heard it directly from a business partner in Leeds.” “Everyone there knows James, the rejected son-in-law of the Hilton family. Are you still going to deny it? Do you really think that’s a lie?” Mariana continued. With a triumphant look, Mariana smiled in satisfaction. To her, even though Sheva used to be the “school beauty,” in the end, she still married a man everyone saw as trash. “Of course, Sheva, don’t be embarrassed. We’re only worried about you. If you feel burdened by that useless man, just leave him. No one will laugh at you,” Mariana said, pretending to sound kind. “Yes, Sheva, if you don’t like a man like that, just kick him out. No need to hide it.” Everyone sided with Mariana. The atmosphere grew livelier, while Sheva’s expression became harder to hold. No one could understand how Sheva, with so many choices, could end up marrying James, that so-called worthless son-in-law. “The sch

    In fact, before she left, Ray from the Hawar Hotel had even wanted to send a security team to accompany her. But Sheva refused. She was not yet used to such extravagance. “In that case, if you feel inconvenienced in Dandelion, I can arrange a car for you. That is nothing,” Mariana said in a lofty tone, clearly intending to show her superiority. “Sheva, I heard you are managing a jewelry company in Leeds, right? That was your family’s inheritance, wasn’t it?” Mariana took a sip of her coffee and continued with full confidence. “Did you come to Dandelion this time for business? I have many connections in the jewelry industry. If you want, I can easily arrange things for you.” Her voice was full of arrogance. “Sheva, it has been years since we met, yet Mariana is still the same as before. The two of you were once called the golden sisters of the campus. If you need help, Sheva, just speak to Mariana. Her influence in Dandelion is no joke,” one man said flatly. “That’s right. Mariana

  • Chapter 277-At Reunion

    Tjah once told him, back in those days, that the Grand Elder was the greatest support of the Nelton Family. Because this matter was so important, only after he stepped down and passed on the Patriarch’s position would he reveal the truth to the next successor, leaving behind this final card and explaining the true connection with Elder Nelton. “This is truly troublesome. That old man cannot move right now, and I cannot allow James Timothy to meet him. If they do, our plans will be ruined,” Gonamaz said gravely. “Yes. With his sudden appearance this time, I am worried something may happen on Father’s side,” Almer replied firmly. Gonamaz pondered for a long time, as if an idea struck him. His eyes gleamed. “That old man’s matters are not yet settled. We absolutely cannot let James see him. If he discovers any weakness, it could destroy everything we have built.” His tone grew more serious. “As for how talented James truly is… we should test him, just to confirm who he really is.”
