Still Wanna Escape After Stealing My Heart? novel Chapter 2317

"I, however, have never given up protecting my daughter! With me keeping an eye here, don't you even think about harming my daughter!"

"I didn’t! I really didn't!" James got anxious. "I swear! I have never done anything offensive to your daughter. The reason why I appeared at your daughter's house so early in the morning that day was not that I had spent the night. It was because she had a friend who had a fight with her husband. That woman spent the night at your daughter's house. I came over that early in the morning to deliver breakfast to both the women! Also, your daughter was the one who agreed for me to deliver the breakfast! That was because your daughter had been comforting that woman, so she had no time to prepare breakfast. However, I had never expected that the woman was a n evil viper! Your daughter had comforted her, taken her in, and treated her so well. But what happened in the end? That woman actually took a fancy to me and wanted me to be with her! She still owes your daughter two thousand dollars as well! Now, she is missing"

Old Master Shaw was in disbelief. "There's... such a thing?"

"Of course!" James said with annoyance.

He deliberately did that because he knew h e could not keep being meek. He had to be firm. Only then would Old Master Shaw feel that he was aggrieved.

Surely, after Old Master Shaw pondered for a while, his tone also softened up. "Boy! Listen to me! I may have made a mistake b y blaming you this time! I hope you won't say anything unpleasant about me to my daughter!”

"I know that your relationship with your daughter is bad, but that's a matter between both of you. I will not get involved! " James said.

"That's good!" Old Master Shaw sneered. He still had more to say. "However...however, you also have to listen to me carefully! My daughter is already more than fifty years old. She had been through many hardships wandering around everywhere her whole life. She had never gotten true love when she was younger, let alone now. You spoke with such conviction and your words indeed are very convincing. However, one will never truly be able to tell what others are thinking. Who would know what you truly have in mind?"

James suddenly shuddered. "People say that only time will tell what a person is truly like. This saying is not wrong at all. My relationship with my daughter is not good, but protecting her from harm is still something I am able to d o as a father! Boy, you listen to me carefully. In any case, my daughter is already more than fifty years old and she had never met any good men in all these years. Since it has already been so many years, a couple more years would not make a difference. If you're able to keep being good to my daughter everyday for the next three days and let her be satisfied every day, I will agree to let you and my daughter get married! As long as you guarantee that my daughter will be able to live happily for the rest of her life, I will make it worth your while!" Old Master Shaw said.

James' eyes lit up. What did Old Master Shaw mean by that? Was that an acknowledgment for him? It did not seem like it either. The Old Master Shaw was a sly old fox. He was smarter than others. He was testing him. If he was just a little unqualified, the old man would be able to turn him into dust. For a moment, James felt both excited and also felt like he was caught in a precarious situation.

He was really tempted by Old Master Shaw's words. If he were to become Old Master Shaw’s son-in-law and live the rest of his life with Gloria, the glory and wealth he would be able to get would absolutely be no less than those obtained from cheating others. There was no need for him to grow old with Gloria. He just had to force Gloria t o divorce him after five years, and he would be able to get a hefty sum of money. He then immediately nodded aggressively like a chick pecking on grains, "Sir, don't worry. I will certainly make you satisfied not because you had threatened me, but for the sake of Gloria. I will show you that I certainly can take good care of Gloria."

"Don't you dare to break her heart!" Old Master Shaw's words were domineering!
