In Lu Mansion. "You're back?" Lydia saw James and stopped watching TV, "Your father is in the study." James nodded slightly, "Okay." "It seems that your father is very unhappy. You brat, what have you done to provoke him?" Lydia pursed her lips, "He looks so angry that I don't dare to take the initiative to talk to him. I'm afraid that he will vent his anger on me. It's all your fault!" Hearing this, James glanced at the upstairs. He understood and said, "Has he ever got angry with you?" "Humph!" Lydia snorted, "He has never been angry with me, so I hate you more." "What? I didn't do anything to annoy you." D*mn! He had been in a bad mood, but his parents still made him so depressed. He was about to have a nervous breakdown. "John is not in a good mood, and I feel sad. You're the one who provoked him, so I hate you." James took a deep breath, "I..." Before he could finish his words, Lydia waved at him impatiently as if she was shoo
"......" James was silent and did not answer him. He was angry with Elizabeth indeed, but he could not tell John that it was because of her. Seeing that James didn't want to speak, John roared, "I'm asking you!" James thought about it and closed his eyes, "There's no reason." "You..." John took a deep breath and asked again, "What on earth is the reason?" James looked up at John, "It's just because I don't like this company. There is no other reasons. Don't ask me anymore." "You b*stard!" Hearing this, James laughed self-mockingly. B*stard? Well, he didn't care. "Have you been living a good life for too long? Huh?" John pointed at James, "If you think that you're tired of managing Lu Enterprises, there will be lots of people who want to replace you. If you keep making a fuss like this, Lu Enterprises will go bankrupt because of you sooner or later!" "Whatever." James nodded slightly, "You can continue to be the president. Xavi
Lydia followed James out of the house, but James had driven away. Thinking of the wound on James's forehead, she was so worried. She knew him too well. He wouldn't go to the hospital. She felt distressed and anxious. In the end, she had to call Elizabeth. No matter what, James would listen to Elizabeth. As soon as the phone was connected, Lydia exchanged the usual pleasantries with Elizabeth. When she was about to get down to the business, she suddenly didn't know what to say. John was her husband, while James was her son, and Elizabeth was her daughter-in-law. Should she tell Elizabeth that James was beaten by John and his forehead was bleeding and then ask Elizabeth to treat James's wound? What would Elizabeth think after she heard that? If she didn't tell Elizabeth that Jimmy was beaten John, how could James's forehead suddenly get hurt in his own house? She... really couldn't say it! So, in the end, she just said, "Oh, I just called to ask
When Elizabeth received a phone call from Lydia, she had just got off the car. Hearing Lydia's caring and considerate words, she felt so guilty all of a sudden. At that time, she almost wanted to say, "Mom, don't be so good to me. The better you treat me, the guiltier I will be." However, she bit back the words she would like to have said. She was afraid that not only James would ignore her, but her mother-in-law and father-in-law who she cherished and appreciated very much, would also be disappointed in her. After hanging up the phone, she melted into tears and bit her lip tightly. She felt so uncomfortable and painful in her heart as if her heart was wrenched by something. If she had known that James would be so angry, she would never do that. If she could meet Adele earlier and see how great mother's love was with her own eyes, she would not be so silly to eat the pills and make James so mad, and she wouldn't make herself so grieved. Fortun
Elizabeth was pulled to the stairwell next to the elevator by Theodore. Although Theodore said that, Elizabeth paid attention to his movements. No matter why Theodore was here, she was afraid that James would know that she was with Theodore at this time. However, just now, she was more afraid of being seen by the people in the lobby. If there was any rumour about her and Theodore, it would be more difficult for her to explain. However, if Theodore dared to take her out of Grand Dynasty Hotel, she would definitely not go out. Fortunately, he did not bring her out. Did he have something on James? What was it? But no matter what it was, she would never let Theodore threaten James with it. "Theodore, what do you want to say?" Elizabeth got rid of Theodore's hand, but this time, she shook off his hand easily. Theodore looked at Elizabeth who looked unhappy, and said with a sneer, "You are still as naive as before." Elizabeth immediately realized tha
Theodore smiled coldly, "Are you scared? Are you also afraid of death?" "......" "That's right." Theodore nodded gently, "You have found a rich and powerful husband, and you're living a good life. How can you be willing to die? But..." He exhaled heavily and said, "Since you're living so well now, why do you have to go against me? Huh? Did my parents treat you badly before? Are you utterly conscienceless?" Elizabeth shook her head desperately, "Let go... of me... ahem... first." She clenched her hands into fists, but she felt like she was about to suffocate and had no strength at all. She turned around to grab his wrist as tightly as she could, just to let Theodore let go of her. Looking at Elizabeth's red face and panicked and flustered expression, Theodore suddenly raised his head and laughed. "Ha-ha..." Elizabeth got more panicked, and she kept telling herself to keep calm. Otherwise, she would really die. Seeing that Theodore did not
"No..." Elizabeth kept shaking her head, and her face was as terribly ashy. Theodore didn't care whether she was willing or not. He moved the dagger closer to her and asked, "How about cutting your neck?" "Theodore... calm down." Elizabeth felt that she couldn't even speak fluently, but she couldn't let go of any chance to survive, so she stuttered, "Don't do this. You... are still young, and you have your parents. If you... die, what will they do?" "They..." Theodore's eyes dimmed, and his eyes and face were full of sorrow. He looked helpless and pitiful. Seeing this, Elizabeth felt that she had seen her hope, and she felt a little happy in heart. "Theodore, can you bear to die like this? What about uncle and aunt? Have you thought about their feelings? Don't be impulsive and calm down. Let's think of a way slowly, okay?" Theodore didn't answer her and just shook his head lightly. "You're still young. Don't be so excited. Can you chill out?" T
"Whether you believe it or not, I didn't do anything bad to your company. As for James..." Elizabeth pursed her lips and thought for a while before she replied, "I never ask about what he wants to do. He has been away from home for two days, so I don't know anything, and I don't know if it was him..." She glanced at the dagger which had been thrown not far away by Theodore, and she was afraid that what she was going to say would stimulate him. Therefore, she took two steps forward quickly and kicked the dagger downstairs. After a series of cracking sounds, the dagger rolled downstairs and fell to the ground next to the basement. After that, Elizabeth felt a little relieved. She came back, stood in front of Theodore, and sighed slightly. Although Theodore looked awkward and pitiful at this time, she said ruthlessly, "Theodore, I can't help you." After that, she didn't stay any longer, turned around, and wanted to leave. She couldn't stay in this place any
