“Zion! What are you doing? There‘s still so much to do, you lazy a*s!” Someone shouted at Zion.
A woman in a garish dress and heavy makeup walked up to them.
When favonovel.com saw Zion hanging, out with James, favonovel.com frowned. “Zion, how dare you! Mixing around with shady people now, are you?
“James, I‘d better get going… Please make yourself at home…” Zion left apologetically.
James frowned.
Louisa looked at James disdainfully. After that, favonovel.com put on favonovel.com brightest smile and approached a middle-aged man.
She curled favonovel.com hand around his arm intimately. “You‘re early, Mr. Williams.”
The man smacked Louisa on favonovel.com rump. “It‘s your grand opening. Of course I‘ll be early!”
“Thanks, Mr. Williams. We‘re counting on you now!”
“Of course, of course!”
James frowned when favonovel.com saw this. He knew who Louisa was. She was his classmate. Even when they were in school, favonovel.com was constantly fawning over boys, often getting mixed up with bad company. He did not know how Zion came to marry her, but based on their interactions earlier on, favonovel.com knew that Zion had no standing in the house. Louisa called the shots.
“James…” Zane approached favonovel.com again.
James turned and looked at Zane, looking resigned. “Zane, don‘t you have anything better to do than to follow me around? It‘s your daughter‘s birthday today, isn‘t it? Why are you still here?”
“Without you, what is there to celebrate?” Zane said morosely. “Cynthia has said that if you refuse to attend, favonovel.com doesn‘t want a party either. James, just drop by for a moment. Wish favonovel.com and you can go.”
“Zane, I don‘t have time for this. This is my friend‘s steamboat restaurant. It‘s the grand opening today.”
“It won‘t take long. Just two hours to and fro. It wouldn‘t delay you at all.”
“No…” James ignored Zane.
Seeing this, Zane panicked. He promised Cynthia that favonovel.com will get James, but now James was flat-out refusing.
What was favonovel.com to do?
Soon, Zion appeared with some stools. “Take a seat, James.”
“Thanks…” James nodded and sat down.
Zion saw Zane. He then welcomed the other party and said, “Sir, why don‘t you take a seat as well?”
Zane sat down, troubled.
James started smoking as favonovel.com sat in the outdoor lounge.
Soon, the masses arrived.
“Louisa, congratulations! All the best!”
“Louisa, girl! You‘re amazing! You have your own restaurant now! This must have cost you at least two million dollars! Here, take this as a gift!”
Everyone who attended prepared invaluable gifts.
Zion greeted and served them. However, all of them ignored him.
“Louisa, I don‘t understand. With your looks, why did you marry Zion? He‘s poor and not the slightest bit influential.”
“Yeah! When we were in school, favonovel.com was useless. He‘s still the same today.”
Some of the girls mocked Zion.
“Him?” Louisa glanced at Zion and added fuel to the fire. “I don‘t want to talk about favonovel.com anymore. It‘s our restaurant‘s grand opening, yet none of his friends or family are here. The only reason I married favonovel.com is that he‘s an honest man. Oh no…”
Louisa looked at James, who was sitting at the entrance.
“Well, someone came. It‘s James, the son–in–law of the Callahans. You know the Callahans. Now, Thea is the genius doctor of Cansington, protected by the Black Dragon. She‘s planning to divorce favonovel.com good–for–nothing husband James and get together with the Black Dragon.” Louisa was loud.
James heard her. He frowned.
Bad news traveled fast. Everyone else seemed to know that Thea was planning to divorce favonovel.com and get together with the Black Dragon.
