She was trembling while she was holding the phone. Ingemar had never seen such a woman before.
Needless to say, her sorrow was there.
Mrs. James felt panicked. She did not understand this emotion very well. She had never understood
such an emotion in her life. What she cared more was...?
“Grace, how’s it going? President Shaw, he...”
“President Shaw will let the James Group go.” The woman on the rattan chair closed her eyes and
stopped Mrs. James’ hurried question. Mrs. James became even happier for a moment. “Grace, I knew
you… Your heart was the softest.”
“But I am in charge of the James Group,” the woman said.
“What?” Mrs. James cried out in shock. Her sharp voice broke the tranquility of Erhai Lake. She pointed
at the woman in the rattan chair who had her eyes closed in disbelief.
“How can you!”
“I can,” Grace said slowly.
“You are unfilial! You take advantage of this!”
Mrs. James was very angry.
The woman on the rattan chair only smiled faintly. But it made Mrs. James was furious when she saw
it.
“I thought you were a nonchalant person. So you are the most ambitious one! You want to take Payne’s
property!” Mrs. James only had the sentence “I’m in charge of the James Group” in her mind. She was
in a mess and mentioned Jafar. “Your father won’t agree! You are wrong!”
Grace sneered and opened her eyes, staring straight at Mrs. James.
“Go back and ask Jafar if he wants to be the old master of the James Group in S City or a penniless
poor man with no money.”
Grace looked coldly at Mrs. James. She added, “I will give these words to Mrs. James as well.”
“If I’m in charge of it, you’re still Mrs. James in S City’s group of the upper crust. Payne is also the
young master of the James Group. His monthly salary is still the same as before. There’s no shortage
of his medical expenses. Mrs. James’ expenses are fifty thousand a month. If Mrs. James and Mr.
James were unwilling, the James Group would become the history of S City. You are smart. Just think
yourself what is the most advantageous choice.”
Mrs. James’ ears were buzzing!
But what scared her even more were Grace’s eyes, which were bloodshot!
Grace waved at her and said, “Go back and think. Ask Mr. James. Go.”
She was very tired. She felt happy as Mrs. James ran away.
They were not so much begging her, and they were actually forcing her. She knew that she couldn’t
and shouldn’t do it, but she couldn’t refuse!
Now, she also took what the James family regarded as their own life. She looked in the direction where
Mrs. James had already left … ‘Dear Mr. James, Mrs. James, Young Master James, would you all feel
any pain?’
Those bloodshot eyes were filled with joy and despair.
The Shaw Group.
President’s office.
“It’s her.” Kern sat opposite him and listened to the call quietly.
He was sure it was her, Grace.
At this moment, the bell rang again.
Ingemar called.
On the phone, Ingemar only said, “Mrs. James used the deceased Old Master James. They used Old
Master James. How despicable!”
The man was indifferent, “I guessed it.” That woman didn’t even care about Payne’s life. What else did
she care about in the James Group?
She seemed to be pleading for mercy, but it was a very difficult decision for that woman.
His heart ached for no reason. He looked down and felt lonelier. He forced that woman again.
He knew that he shouldn’t have, but he did it.
Loss and coercion.
He only wanted to tightly grasp her, even if she was … imprisoned!
Imprison her beside him for the rest of his life, even if he would go to hell after his death and suffered
all the hardships.
Ingemar suddenly laughed, “But Grace really isn’t weak. She wants to be the head of the family. Didn’t
you see Mrs. James’ face at that time? It was wonderful.”
“Only Old Master James can let Grace make this call to me. You must know that that woman also has a
temper.” Caden said in a low voice, “She wants to be the James Group’ leader, so she deserves it.”
Now, she was willing to be the leader of the James Group. That was the best. It meant that she had to
return to S City from Erhai Lake. When she returned to S City, she had no choice but to re-enter the
complicated world. Only in this way could he keep her by his side forever.
How could Ingemar not understand Caden? He chuckled and said, “Don’t push her too hard.” The call
was cut off.
Kern snorted and said, “Old Master James is not really nice to her. Did she make this call just for such
an impure purpose?
“Was she stupid or not?” He did not approve of Grace on this point.
The man opposite him suddenly stood up. The seat behind him emitted a slight sound, and his tall body
covered more than half of Kern.
“It’s not that she was stupid, or that she couldn’t see through it.” Caden looked at Kern coldly.
“Do you think the Grace really doesn’t understand? Or is it that she couldn’t tell Old Master James’
goodness for her for so many years? Was there any additional conditions?”
“Then why…”
Caden looked gloomy and felt pain.
“She understands, and she understands everything.
She never said it.
She didn’t say anything when Old Master James was alive, and neither did she say when he was gone.
She was just running Wei’ai Foundation--that’s the only thing Old Man James wanted her to do as a
member of the James Group. “
It was the only hope and the only thing what Grace could do. Old Master James was domineering and
didn’t allow Grace to touch anything of the James Group, so he gave Grace Wei’ai Foundation.
Kern was a little angry, “You also know Old Master James’ intentions. It’s not so much for her as for
charity in the name of love. Was he also kind to her? Is she showing her weakness to you for Old
Master James?” He couldn’t accept it!
First, he felt that she was too stupid.
Second, she was so cold and unyielding to him. How could she yield to him so easily?
Caden chuckled. Kern looked up, coincidentally seeing his scorn.
Before he could get angry, Caden frowned and said, “She knew. You could see through it. So could
she. But that was the only sunlight in her life.” At this point, Caden felt that his throat was clogged up in
panic, and felt heartache for that stupid woman.
“Even though she knew that it was not pure, and that it was conditional, she still did it.” Just like him,
she knew that it would be very tiring for her to love him. But that silly woman still fell into the trap. From
now on, it was the beginning of her suffering.
Caden was the beginning of all the suffering of that silly woman.
In this life, he was willing to pamper her deeply.
Kern was shocked… Someone who knew it was fake, was still wholehearted?
Was there really such a person in this world?
But he couldn’t help but believe it!
“She remembers old man James’ good, not his bad. In her eyes, she only remembers his good. Do you
really think she is ignorant?”
“Kern, the woman I fell in love with is like this,” the man smiled and felt incomparably proud.
Caden kept echoing, “What about you? Kern, what exactly do you love?”
It was too noisy.
‘What about you? Kern, what exactly did you love?’
‘What is it that I love?’ Kern was absent-minded. He didn’t know how he walked out of Caden’s office.
He ignored passers-by and stepped into the elevator. The elevator door was opened again. He was
already in the underground garage.
Kern gradually rekindled hope. He was late in her life, so there was no need to be jealous of his love
with her. There was no way for him to participate in her past, and in her future, it might not be
impossible.
He was just... late.
