Chapter 484
Outside Glorious Hotel…
Lex wore an anxious expression. So did John’s family.
John approached James and pleaded, “James, since you were able to find accommodation for us at the last minute, is there any way you stop Montgomery from getting charged in court? He crossed an Oswald. In order to get a better standing with the Xenoses, the Oswalds broke his leg. His condition could deteriorate if he goes to prison.”
“You really think he can help us, John?” Tommy wore a scornful look
It was not as if he had something personal against James. The man was simply a good-for-nothing son-in-law. What else could he do besides leech off the Callahans’ wealth?
Megan chimed in to add fuel to the fire, “He wouldn’t have married into the family if he was truly capable of anything.” ”That’s right. What were you thinking about relying on trash? There must be something wrong with your head.” Jolie joined along in putting down James.
“John, what are you doing begging a trash for help?” A middle-aged woman tugged at John’s sleeve. She was Rachel Windsor, John’s wife. Rachel despised James. That was because Thea had brought ruin to the Callahans. James just so happened to be Thea’s husband.
“I-I had no one else to turn to.” John tried to defend himself.
Now that the Callahans had fallen, the connections they had made were redundant. He could only clutch at straws.
The Callahans did not believe James could get Montgomery out of prison.
Despite what happened earlier, he looked down on Howard and his family. Despite the fact Montgomery had stood up for them, they turned on him and ridiculed him. James gave his assurance, “Grandpa, John, don’t worry about it. Leave everything to me. After getting you guys some lodging, I will find a way to get Montgomery out.”
“Anyone can show off…” Lex slammed the cane and yelled at his venomous Family members, “I told you to quiet down!”
