It seemed like he must have really messed up in a past life to be stuck teaching everything he knew to such a hopeless case. "Are you okay? Feeling sick?"
James nced at Angelo and said, "Being your teacher is the biggest regret of my life."
Then, he left the bewildered Angelo standing there and walked out the door. Bang! The door mmed shut behind him.
Angelo stood there, stunned, shouting, "But didn''t you say I was doing alright?"
Driving his Porsche towards the Dragonvein Hotel, James arrived to find Odie standing in the cold wind. Odie had taken off his suit jacket and ripped off his tie. Hands on his hips, he directed the tow truckpany to haul away his beloved car.
Watching James pull up in his Porsche, Odie felt a tightness in his chest.
James rolled down his window, gave Odie a once-over, and asked, "Mr. Odie, having a rough day?"
Odie couldn''t even manage a smile. "Seems like I''ve been cursed with bad luck this year."
Jonah opened the car door for James, saying, "Mr. Burke, please."
"Park my car in the underground garage, will you? I''d rather not have anyone messing with my tires."
James''s words felt like another jab at Odie''s heart.
Seriously, what kind of taste does Sophie have? Neither of these guys are any good!
Odie took a deep breath and asked, "Did you hear about Kiran causing a scene at the engagement party today?"Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org.
James replied, "All the major news sites posted videos and photos about fifteen minutes ago, along with a detailed description of tonight''s events. Hard to miss it."
"What?"
Odie pulled out his phone, and his face darkened as he saw the news.
Kiran! How dare he post this online?
"Boss, I''ll get someone to take down the news immediately."
"It''s been fifteen minutes. The news has gone viral with over ten million views. The whole country knows by now! What good will taking it down do?" Qdie gritted his teeth. "Next time see Kiran, I''ll definitely teach him a lesson!"
James nced at Odie but stayed silent. Sometimes, you really had to question their intelligence.
Suddenly, Odie looked up at James and asked, "Kiran has taken all my overseas operatives. What do you have to say about that?"
James calmly replied, "I don''t even know who your operatives are, Mr. Odie. Are you seriously suspecting me?"
Odie''s voice grew colder, "You might
not know all of them, but you certainly know some. With your capabilities, digging deeper wouldn''t be difficult. Besides, it was your idea to get me engaged to Vanessa. Now things turned out this way, can''t help but be suspicious."
"So, Mr. Odie invited me here to point fingers? James feigned difficulty, "The idea might have been mine, but the decision was yours. Besides, the Burkes have no influence overseas. I simply don''t have the means to uncover your operatives abroad for the Mintons. Lastly, I have absolutely nothing to do with the Pords. If Kiran acted against you, how could I possibly have known?"
Odie was about to continue questioning when James interjected, "The Pords'' involvement is a result of your own mishandling of Ms. Sandy. Let''s not start ming me for everything."
