Chapter 267
Although she said nothing, disappointment was apparent on her face.
All women loved wealthy and successful men, not unambitious men who stayed at home and tended to household chores.
“I’m going to Pacific Group.” She turned to leave. Her expression did not escape James’ notice. He saw the disappointment on her face. It seemed that after meeting the mysterious Mr. Caden, Thea’s opinion of him had unconsciously changed.
Meanwhile, the Callahans were worked up upon hearing that they were allowed to move into the villa. They gathered to discuss an auspicious day to move in. James, on the other hand, was forgotten. Not that he cared.
Sitting on the balcony, he smoked his cigarettes and contemplated life.
Not long after Thea left, Lex came knocking on the door.
The Callahans utilized all resources at their disposal to get Howard and Tommy out of prison but to no avail.
As it was James who had called the police, Wyatt explained that James’ approval was needed for them to be released. No one else could do the trick. Thus, Lex came personally.
The Callahans did not give him a good look.
After all, they were now detached from the main family and would be moving into a villa. There was simply no need to play nice with him anymore.
“Father, why are you here?”
On the sofa in the living room.
Gladys wore an indifferent expression. She was dismissive of Lex even though he was the family’s patriarch.
Lex looked at James and ordered, “James, withdraw the case immediately. Release Tommy and Howard now.”
