The President's Darling Chapter 50
It turned out there was another person behind this!Summer didn't know who Keith was, but that name sounded familiar. She just couldn't remember the face at the moment.At the same time, a voice of an icy tone resounded.A good-looking man showed up in front of Summer. Judging from his features, she guessed that he was a foreigner. His cold disposition was totally different from that of James'.James' cold demeanor was merely directed at strangers, but this man brought the meaning of "destruction" to life. His eyes were so dangerously mesmerizing that they could draw someone into the abyss.Zach and Bradly greeted simultaneously, "You're here, Keith."That was the person who came up with this plan!Summer thought that she was in a game; after beating off those minions, she finally confronted the final-round boss. Keith was literally a living monster due to his intimidating aura.However, it didn't scare her because he was also human. There was nothing to be afraid of.Sh

Summer thought, "How could that Keith guy degrade me like that? What does he mean by James wouldn't come for a woman like me? As if I'm a toy that can be discarded at any time!"Bradly returned, a little out of breath. "Keith's gone. He doesn't seem to be curious about the outcome."Zach said, "Maybe he's disappointed by the outcome. He's as busy as Jamie. I bet Keith didn't want to waste his time on this. But I think Jamie might come."He was holding onto some anticipation regarding the outcome. Like a lost person in the darkness, he was waiting for the ray of light to shine on him.Later on, Bradly sent an anonymous message to James, requesting him to show up at 8 pm.It was 7:45 pm when the contract signing activity between Quigley Group and Westor Group was going on.Summer wondered if James was on his way here.The two men didn't appear nervous at all. They chatted while eating on the bed while Summer was annoyed.She could only watch them enjoy dinner while shrinking hers

Zach and Bradly were both stunned to see James appear. They never expected this cold-hearted man to actually come over.When they were playing poker just now, both of them assumed that James would not come. They were prepared to play a bit longer and then send Summer back, but James had already arrived.The poker cards slipped from Bradly's hand and scattered on the ground. He then forced a smile and said, "James, you're here. How about … we play poker together?"James remained silent. His eagle-like gaze swept over Zach and Bradly before settling on the somewhat bewildered Summer. Guessing how things had turned out, he thought these people must have conspired to act out this scene. He felt angry but managed to control himself.Taking a step forward, James came to the bedside and carried Summer in his arms. He then stepped over the threshold to leave the place and put her in the car.The black car weaved through the city roads under the howling wind. At this moment, there were

"James, are you stupid? Why did you suddenly leave when the meeting is so important?" said Summer, somewhat annoyed."Because of you," he replied."I … Even if anything were to happen to me, you shouldn't have come. After all, I'm just your trophy wife," Summer complained coquettishly.She then added, "And don't bother acting anymore. I can see through you."After talking with Bradly, Summer learned that James' family was pressuring him, especially his mother, Caroline, who was eager for him to settle down and start a family.Reflecting on it now, Summer realized why James had married her. His declarations of love were all fake. He had deliberately created illusions to make her believe he liked her so that she would willingly enter into the marriage.James remained silent as usual, seemingly uninterested in explaining anything.In truth, he did not want to explain to her. If Summer felt he did not genuinely like her, what was the point of explaining? Over time, he would slow

The living room was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop. Without anyone else there, the air felt a bit chilly. Finally, James said, "I was punishing them."Puzzled, Summer asked, "Punishing? Punishing them for what?""For not protecting you properly."Summer realized he was referring to the incident when Bradly took her away. However, this had nothing to do with Charlie and Connor, as they had insisted on staying to protect her. It was her insistence that made the two brothers leave."It's not their fault; it's mine. I was the one who asked them to leave, which allowed Bradly to take me away," she explained before pausing for a moment.Then, with an eager expression, she added, "Besides, nothing significant happened, and I managed to come back safely."The scene of Charlie and Connor lashing out at each other replayed in Summer's mind. She shuddered at the gruesome scene of both of them covered in blood, not understanding why James would resort to such brutality.Turni

Just like her ex-boyfriend Hank, who deceitfully manipulated her emotions and ultimately advanced his career at the Charter Corporation as a high-ranking executive, James was no different.He sought a nominal wife due to family pressure, and the gentleness he previously showed was probably a pretense. He acted like he was devoted, all to make her believe that he was sincere."I'm so stupid. I'm so dumb …" Summer scolded herself inwardly.Why did she fall for that man? If she thought about it seriously, she would know that it was all a trap. How could such an outstanding man want her as his wife?But there was nothing she could do now. He helped save Charter Corporation, and they were already married. She could not just get a divorce and go home.Not to mention the potential impact this would have on Charter Corporation. James' formidable influence would likely make her life difficult."Whatever!" Summer shouted in frustration and decided just to live on for now. She would

"There's nothing to worry about. My brother and I have undergone training. These minor injuries will recover quickly.""It's good if you can recover, but James is too ruthless. I think you should stay away from him. "That kind of malicious boss will sooner or later take your lives," said Summer, offering her heartfelt advice.A superior who would resort to violence at the drop of a hat was as terrifying as an executioner.However, Charlie began defending James. He said, "Mr. Quigley is a good man, and we deserved the punishment."Summer was puzzled as to why Charlie was still speaking up for James even after being punished by him. She began to doubt if Charlie was mentally ill."How is he a good man? He's cold and cruel!" exclaimed Summer.She rarely spoke ill of others, but the scene from last night was unforgettable. In any case, her impression of James had plummeted.Seeing that Summer had misunderstood, Charlie explained, "Mr. Quigley is just strict. He wants us to bec

Summer had already called her parents on the way back, so as soon as her car arrived, she could see her parents standing at the door to welcome her.Fred and Jeannine still looked the same. The elderly couple seemed extremely happy to see their daughter back, grinning from ear to ear. Similarly, Summer was delighted to see them. She approached them with small steps and said sweetly, "Dad, Mom."Upon seeing her parents, Summer felt like she had turned into a three-year-old child. Ignoring etiquette, she embraced them. The family was harmonious, warm, and full of joy.Jeannine held Summer's face and carefully examined it.Reassured, she said, "Great, our child hasn't lost weight.""Not losing weight is good!" Fred replied.Summer had been working on maintaining her figure lately, secretly hoping to shed some pounds. However, it was somewhat comical—she had not seen her parents for only two days, but the current scene made it feel like they had not seen each other for two ye
