Chapter 91
James, what are you doing? Jenna moved forward, but Adler stopped her.
Women should handle women’s issues, and men should resolve men’s issues.
Adler stepped in front of Jenna and said, “James, this is the Dennis family’s turf. You know the rules, don’t you?”
James ignored Adler, his gaze fixed on Jenna. “Did you drive Nichole away?”
“It was me who drove her out. What are you going to do about it? Come to take revenge on behalf of your mistress?”
Jenna’s tone was full of disdain and contempt, which only fueled James‘ anger. “Nichole was in a car accident. She’s lying in the hospital right now!”
Upon hearing James‘ words, Jenna was stunned.
A car accident?
Adter frowned.
James coldly declared, “If anything happens to Nichole, you’ll be a murderer!”
Sophie said, “It was me who drove her out. If you have any issues, settle them with me.”
James‘ eyes grew even colder. “Eager to take the blame? You won’t escape responsibility if Nichole is hurt.” He showed no intention of sparing Sophie any dignity.
*James! Do you even realize whom you’re speaking to? Sophie is your wife! Are you really in a rush to accuse her of hurting your mistress?”
Jenna was furious, clenching her
her teeth.
However, James didn’t feel he was in the wrong. A mistake is a mistake, and since he had called Nichole over, he owed her justice.
At that moment, applause broke the tension. Everyone turned to see Colby stepping forward in his leather boots, his gaze locked on James with a mocking smile. “Such a dramatic accusation. I like it.”
James‘ eyes sharpened at the sight of Colby.
“You disrupt this event over a woman, James. Do you really think the Costello family has no support?”
Colby stood in front of Sophie and said, “She was kicked out, and whether she lives or dies is none of our concern. If you insist on justice, by all means, try” Colby’s smile twisted slightly. “But you should know, there’s no justice here with me.”
The tension between the two men was palpable, but Sophie felt a security she had never experienced before standing behind Colby.
“Don’t forget, Devonport is my territory, not yours, Colby
Although James‘ statement was arrogant, it wasn’t without merit. Despite being a notorious figure with immeasurable overseas assets, Colby was aware that James had the final say in Devonport.
“Oh?” Colby raised an eyebrow. “Whether or not Devonport is yours is not for you to decide, James.”
