Chapter 731

After a moment, David asked in a serious manner, "How are things going with James, Suzanne? I heard about it from your mother—do you really think you could get him to like you?"He was concerned about this. He only gave her such a huge project because Layla told him about the situation.At the current moment, the Quigleys and the Camberwells were close partners. However, that was still a professional relationship. If James and Suzanne could get into a marriage of convenience, it would greatly benefit both of their families.The Quigleys were one of the four most prestigious families in the country—there were plenty of people who wanted to be associated with them. Suzanne, on the other hand, seemed extremely confident. "I should be able to make him like me. At the very least, I think I'm a much better catch than his wife is.""That's great. You should try your best to make our family proud.""Of course, Dad." She smiled softly. Suzanne looked overjoyed, but her expression was lac

Chapter 732

Since Suzanne brought up Norman, James felt like he shouldn't be too adamant about rejecting her. He shouldn't keep all his relationships purely professional. It would have seemed better if he had been more than just a business partner with the Camberwells. Besides, in his opinion, Suzanne was quite a respectable woman. She was independent and capable. Aside from being slightly immature and constantly clinging to him, she wasn't that bad of a person. Thus, he agreed. "Let's go watch a movie then.""That's great!" Upon his agreement, she reached for his hand and sprinted toward the cinema.The cinema was extremely crowded and bustling with activity. Young couples were all over the place. Posters of celebrities were plastered across the walls, and music was playing from the speakers—everything was wonderful.James sat on the sofa of the waiting room while his bodyguard got him a movie ticket. His expression was in stark contrast with the cheery environment he was currently in. He

"What are you doing, James? You drove Summer away!" Kelly yelled angrily. "Go after her!"James wanted to do that, too, but Suzanne was holding onto him extremely tightly. He couldn't possibly go after Summer."Let go, Suzanne!" he barked."What's wrong, James? Why are you so worked up? Was that woman your wife?" The latter asked in feigned ignorance. She was fully aware that it was his wife, but she still asked anyway. She just wanted to stall time and stop him from going after her.He didn't waste any more time. He broke free from her grip and took off without so much as a backward glance. The cinema was filled with people. It was not easy to squeeze through the crowd while looking for someone. He couldn't afford to waste any more time, so he began yelling in the public space. "Summie! Where are you? Let me explain…" Everyone in the lobby looked toward him at the sound of his voice. In a split moment, the crowd seemed to have stilled. Everyone stared at him with curious e

"Stop." James retracted his arm from her grasp before swiftly turning away from her. "You'll have to excuse me. I have other matters to attend to. We can talk about other things in the future," he said coldly.Nothing could stop him from going to see Summer right now. He had never seen her so upset before—she ran off without saying a word. She was still a girl, after all. Despite being strong and resolute, she was fully capable of being jealous of him. The outside scenery flashed by the window as his car sped toward the Beaut Moon residential area. He was feeling extremely complicated.Lexi was standing at the front door when James arrived. "Hello, Mr. Quigley. Mrs. Quigley seems very upset. I think it's best if you don't provoke her any further."As Summer's personal bodyguard, Lexi was fully aware of what happened at the cinema. She followed closely behind her all the time, so she was informed of her whereabouts. In her opinion, she believed that he was at fault. He was a

Subsequently, she inhaled deeply before signaling for him to leave. "Mrs. Quigley would like to be left alone, so please head back for now, Mr. Quigley. She'll see you when she wants to see you."Lexi was just a mere bodyguard. James found it strange that she would say something like that.On the other hand, Charlie and the rest of the bodyguards were assuming that she'd gone mad. How could she disobey her employer like that? Was she looking to get fired?Charlie puffed his chest and grunted, "Step aside, Richards. If you keep going against Mr. Quigley like that, you'll end up getting fired. Did you forget that you have a family to feed?"Lexi's family was poor. She had a couple of younger siblings who depended on her for a living. James had offered her a handsome salary in return for her work as a bodyguard. If she lost this job, she'd face a huge financial problem.Despite that, she seemed like she'd made up her mind about this. She refused to give in. "I've decided to protect

Regardless of what she thought, Lexi brought Summer back into the house and instructed her to get some rest. The next morning, dawn broke, and a wonderful new day was about to begin. Yet, Summer seemed incredibly unspirited.She recalled the events from the night before. She refused to believe it was true, but she saw it with her own eyes—James was with another woman. They looked as intimate as an actual couple.Was he seeing someone else? Was he actually cheating on her? Summer started to overthink again. Her brain felt like glue. Upon further reflection, she started to wonder if it was actually a misunderstanding. She didn't even bother to hear him out.How would she know about the events that actually took place? There could've been a reason he was so intimate with her.Now that she had a good night's rest, she felt calmer than before. The more she thought about it, the less sense this incident made. They couldn't possibly just stay like this forever, so she decided to ask

Keith didn't just tell her about Suzanne's identity. He placed extra emphasis on the fact that the pair were from similar backgrounds. It wasn't hard to grasp what he was trying to imply. Summer used to think that he talked too much, but there were some things that she wasn't aware of."Why was she with James then?" She didn't remember this woman at all. She just appeared out of nowhere and was now being so intimate with James. If they knew each other before this, she would've known."The Quigleys are trying to set them up. Quite a number of their businesses were from the Camberwells. If the pair were to get together, it would greatly benefit both of their companies," He told her all that he knew.Then, he stopped before flashing her a mocking smile. "Is this what they call a marriage of convenience? That didn't sound too bad."Didn't sound too bad? Summer was fuming. Then, her heart started to ache. In the past, there were plenty of women who tried to pursue James. Since she h

Lexi regarded Summer with sympathy. "Mrs. Quigley, perhaps you should talk to Mr. Quigley. I think there might have been a misunderstanding that night."Summer stayed quiet but motioned for Lexi to leave. She craved peace and solitude above all else. She had no desire to dwell on things any further.Realizing she shouldn't disturb Summer any longer, Lexi quietly exited.Summer found herself alone in the room as the door closed behind Lexi. She wrapped her arms around her knees and curled up, appearing somewhat forlorn.Lexi stood outside the room, sighing softly. She found the situation regrettable. Knowing that James was the one who could lift Summer's spirits, Lexi resolved to get him involved to help Summer.James sat in the Quigley Group office. His brow furrowed deeply, his expression troubled and tense. Lexi approached cautiously. She had been rude to James the previous night, even going so far as to threaten to beat him if he intruded into the house. Meeting him again n

James sighed involuntarily at the sight of Summer's behavior. She used to be so different. She was known for confronting problems head-on. Yet, she preferred avoidance when it came to matters of the heart.Slowly, James approached and tried to lift the blanket covering Summer's head. However, the blanket remained firmly in her grasp, and he couldn't remove it."Summie, can you hear me out? Nothing's going on between Suzanne and me. I was just at the cinema with her for work," James explained sincerely.Summer wasn't buying it. Whose job would involve going to the movies with a stunning woman anyway? Only James could spin such a yarn."I don't want to hear your explanations. Just go," Summer said curtly.Even though she told James to leave, he wasn't about to be that easily swayed. He wouldn't just do as she say and walk away. He sat on the edge of the bed, still as a statue, explaining, "You're probably aware of the overall situation."Suzanne's parents and mine have been clo

Chapter 740

Summer seethed with frustration when she saw the scene. "James, what's the deal? You just walk out like that?"Everything she said was purely out of anger. Did the cold-hearted blockhead James not understand a woman's feelings? She had hoped he would comfort her, but he simply walked away instead. Summer pulled the blanket aside, hugging her knees as a strong wave of unease and emptiness enveloped her once. She began to reflect inwardly. James had tried to comfort her, yet she had pushed him aside. Was she expecting too much?She shook her head and pushed the thought away. Wasn't it fair for her to want more from him? Who was at fault now? She wouldn't be so enraged if it weren't for his affair with Suzanne. She slammed the pillow onto the floor and firmly stated, "James, you jerk! I'll never forgive you. Ever!"Lexi stood just outside the door, having seen it all with a touch of resignation. She had hoped bringing James to console Summer would help, but now she wondered if it
