All Chapters of The President's Darling: Chapter 861 - Chapter 870

Summer was carrying two full shopping bags along the snowy street. Lexi followed behind, also laden with bags. The two walked along the snow-covered street."Mrs. Quigley, you bought so many things this time," Lexi said cheerfully. She loved going out with Summer because Summer would often buy clothes for her as well. Lexi was never very fashion-conscious, but she now had plenty of outfits to mix and match, which made her very happy.However, the mention of clothes made Summer feel a bit troubled. "I think I've been buying a lot of clothes lately, but most of my wardrobe is for the summer. I have fewer winter clothes, so buying more should be fine." She smiled and glanced back, adding, "Besides, James is a rich heir. So, it doesn't matter if I spend more money."James was like a gold mine, with seemingly unlimited funds. Moreover, Summer no longer needed his money to support her lifestyle. The Charter Corporation had grown into a major enterprise, earning billions each quarter

As James was someone the younger generation looked up to, his attendance at the party was important. Soon, the younger relatives started asking about him. Even Norman, who was seated right in front of the stage, could hear the commotion. After turning around, he saw them causing a ruckus in the back row and felt incredibly frustrated. Seated next to him, a few of the senior men also asked, "Where's James, Norman?""He must have gotten caught up in work. Although it's Christmas, there's still plenty of work to be done at the office." Norman brushed the question off with a laugh. He then got up and went to ask about James' whereabouts. Soon, Caroline learned what was going on. She was currently conversing with a few women who were distant relatives of the family. When she heard about James' absence, she immediately sent someone to look for him. Upon locating him at the front gate, she personally went to get him.At the gates of the Quigley residence, four security guards were s

Relieved, James rested on the sofa in his room on the third floor. He was quite exhausted from the party. On the way back, some senior relatives even tried to force him into a conversation. Nevertheless, he was able to relax now.Why wasn't Summer here yet? James couldn't help but worry. He tried calling her again, but it still went to voicemail. Feeling uneasy, he asked Charlie to search for her in his stead. Since he couldn't excuse himself from the party, he could only instruct his bodyguards to help him look for her.Right after the latter left the room, James could hear his frantic voice from the other side of the door. "Mr. Quigley is resting, Ms. Camberwell. You can't go in—" Charlie didn't get to finish his sentence before the door swung open. Dressed in a black, printed gown, Suzanne made her way toward James. "I've been looking everywhere for you, James."She looked overjoyed. James didn't know why she would be here. The Christmas party was a family event—only fami

The Christmas party was a family gathering. The center of attention was naturally the main Quigley household. This time around, Norman and Caroline wanted their son to impress their guests. James understood what they meant. Summer was actually absent. It wouldn't be fitting for him to not participate in the waltz. However, if he really needed to get a new partner, he wouldn't pick Suzanne, no matter what. He promised Summer he'd try his best to keep his distance. If she were to find out about this afterward, she might get upset at him. Even if she didn't, he'd be upset with himself.He gently lifted his head and wanted to refuse for a second time. All of a sudden, a bright voice was heard. "How about I partner up with James instead?"The voice belonged to a woman in a tulle dress. She had striking features and a refined aura. It was none other than James' cousin, Susanne Yancey. She swiftly made her way over to James. "I couldn't help but overhear the conversation. Since Su

"Hello, James. My name is Claire Quigley. Do you happen to remember me?" The girl stared at him in anticipation. James remembered her. She was the granddaughter of his great-grandfather's seventh son's third daughter. They had the same surname, but they were distant relatives. Hence, they would only meet during Christmas and Thanksgiving. James nodded briefly in response. Subsequently, a couple of other girls popped up from behind and started to introduce themselves impatiently."I'm Anna-""I'm Carol!"He responded to each of them politely and shook their hands. Now that introductions were over, Howe said in a teasing manner, "Wasn't everyone curious about what Mrs. James Quigley looked like? What type of woman managed to bewitch my brother? Don't you guys want to find out?""Yes!" The group of girls shouted in unison.Additionally, a couple of other guests joined in. James was a great man. Everyone wanted to meet the woman who managed to steal his heart.Howe leaned tow
