Summer hadn't expected James to know so many types of dancing. However, he was an educated elite, so naturally, he had learned ballroom dancing. Yet, that wasn't her question. "I wanted to ask if you knew casual dancing styles, like hip-hop or jazz dance." While she spoke, Summer began dancing. She moved gently and sensually. She had learned how to dance from a friend for a dance performance. Then, James looked a little helpless. "I don't know those dance styles. They weren't considered appropriate for me."It seemed that James wasn't entirely flawless. Hip-hop dancing was mostly for entertainment and was rarely needed for social events. Besides, the elites in society wouldn't disregard etiquette to dance sexily at important balls. However, Summer itched to dance passionately, so she dragged James to a bar. Every day at 7:00 pm, that place would start blasting disco music. Moreover, many young men and women danced there casually. Some of them would do hip-hop dancing moves
There was a hip-hop style called breakdancing. One often spun on the floor with their head while supporting themselves with both hands when they did that move. Another popular move was the flare. James managed to dance those difficult moves with ease. Soon, many people started surrounding him while he continued dancing passionately in front of Summer. His movements were as fluent as a professional dancer's. He looked aloof, which made others feel that he was difficult to approach. Still, his dance skills were extraordinary. The song ended, and those on the dance floor clapped enthusiastically for James. Then, everyone started talking about him. Most of them were frequent customers at the bar and knew everyone else. However, no one recognized who James was. Meanwhile, Summer saw a crowd gathering and sensed trouble, so she pulled James away. Just then, a neatly dressed, middle-aged man approached them kindly. "Please wait, sir. Can I ask you a question?""What is it?""C
It would be easy to get out of that situation if she were the only one stopping James from leaving. However, after she prevented him from leaving, a few other young women stopped him as well. They treated him like a toy and kept tugging on him. It seemed like they were going to pull James to pieces. At that moment, the boss of the bar continued talking to James. "What do you think, sir? Let's work together. Would you like to discuss this in my room?" The issue was getting out of hand. Apart from the young women, the boss of the bar also wanted to take advantage of James. Summer couldn't stand it anymore. She yelled, "Everyone, stop it. He's my husband. What are you doing?"This made everyone unhappy. They treated James like a precious toy, and they didn't want Summer to take him away. Two scantily clad young women with dyed hair walked up to Summer fiercely. "Fuck off. Leave this place. You're so shameless. How dare you call him your husband, bitch?"Goodness! It was the
James was very gentle. He carefully tripped the women and held their waists, then placed them carefully on the ground. It didn't look like he was fighting at all. At first, the women were afraid of being hurt by him. However, since James was so gentle with them, they rushed to him. Even if they couldn't have him, they could at least hug him. Meanwhile, Summer felt something was amiss, so she wanted to pull James away. Yet, the middle-aged boss stopped her. "Miss, you're this man's wife, right? Why don't you let him work at my bar? You'll be pleased with the salary that I'm offering for him. How does 50 thousand dollars a month sound?"A regular office worker wouldn't be able to earn half that amount of money. The boss of the bar was very generous. Though it was enough to hire a professional dancer, it wasn't sufficient for James. After all, James was the Quigleys' heir and the president of Quigley Group. Therefore, 50 thousand dollars wasn't enough to hire him. In fact, James
Summer recalled how terrible the incident was earlier. They were very helpless and didn't know what to do. Meanwhile, James looked very calm. Then, he smiled softly. Though it didn't last for long, Summer could clearly see that he was grinning. "Summie, I was very happy because I was with you." After that, he lightly flicked his finger at Summer's forehead. Even though his smile vanished, the warmth in his eyes remained. Just then, Summer's heart skipped a beat. It was as if she had been shot by Cupid. That wasn't right! She forced herself to stop overthinking and guessed that James was trying to woo her. Although he didn't have much dating experience, he couldn't be underestimated. After all, he was a genius. Wouldn't it be easy for him to learn the art of seduction like Bradley? Summer assumed that he was pretending to like her so she would fall for him. She realized it was risky. She was his trophy wife now. She had just gotten into a conflict with Caroline and desp
"Yes. That's because you've never told me why you like me. You told me that you had your grievances, but you can't hide the reason from me for so long, right? "We've been together for a month, but you haven't told me the truth yet.""I'm sorry," James replied mildly. He couldn't tell her the truth yet. He was really upset. Sometimes, telling the truth wouldn't change anything. Moreover, even if he told her his grievances, Summer might not like him either way. Since that was the case, he didn't want to speak up. As he thought about it, his gaze turned gloomy. Summer didn't know what was going on. She wondered why James couldn't tell her the truth. But since he was unwilling to speak, she couldn't force him. Anyway, it didn't really matter. She thought there was a chance he was lying about his grievances. Who knew the truth? She continued to be wary of James because she didn't want to be tricked by men again. Soon, it was 9:00 pm. The Quigleys had a strict curfew, and Summ
It was 10:00 pm. The stars outside shone brightly, making Summer recall a nursery song, "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star." When she had been young, Amelia had often hummed that song to her before bedtime. Summer realized that she hadn't gone home in a long time. "I wonder how Dad and Mom are coping now," Summer mumbled to herself. It was the first time that she had been away from her house for so long. When she had been in university, she had gone home once a week. Ever since she had started living in the Quigley residence, she hadn't gone back home for half a month. She hadn't even called Amelia and Fred. Since she felt guilty about it, Summer decided to visit them soon. Just then, James opened the door to the room. He was wearing a white bathrobe. His hair was wet from the shower, and his muscles were visible beneath his outfit.Summer met eyes with him when he entered the room. Then, she paused, feeling awkward, so she hurriedly lowered her head. She had to be more cautio
Just as Summer was about to fall asleep, she heard someone knock on the door. She figured it must be Luca since he always gave them supplements at 11:00 pm to improve our health.Since James was working, Summer didn't want to disturb him. So, she got out of bed and opened the door. However, instead of Luca, she saw Susanne, who was wearing a nightgown.Susanne greeted Summer after entering the room. Then, she immediately looked for James. "You're here, James." Susanne hugged James' neck like a koala and latched herself to his body like a magnet. Meanwhile, Summer was stunned. Were they really just cousins? But they seemed too close to each other.Unlike Susanne, Summer wouldn't be so intimate with her cousins. The most she did was place her arm around them or hold their arms. She wouldn't throw herself at them like Susanne. Though she was James' wife, Summer couldn't speak up at that point. After all, she didn't like James. What would he think if she jealously told him her opi
