Hearing Stars shout herself hoarse to sing the song, James smiled.

For some reason, he was pretty sure that Stars was scolding him.

He withdrew his gaze.

"They're stressful. Let them give vent to their pressure." After saying this, James continued to walk forward.

"..." Lucy thought she misheard him. How could James be in a leisurely mood to care about others?

But, since James said these words, Lucy had no choice but to agree, "Yes. I blame her."

They were quiet for a few seconds.

Lucy said again, "James, a foreign luxury brand is very knotty. My team has been negotiating with them for a long time. It doesn't work. I need your help."

James looked steadily forward and said in a cold tone as if he were talking about the routine business, "Talk to John about this."

"Okay, I get it," Lucy responded obediently. A hint of joy flashed in her eyes. As expected, claiming ties of kinship with James was the wisest choice. She said, "When the shooting is over, I'll go home to accompany Alice."

In the private room.

Stars didn't stop singing until she wanted to go to the toilet. Putting the microphone down, she howled so hard that her throat hurt. However, her mood obviously became better. She didn't feel so constrained.

As expected, people still needed a vent.

Stars said bluntly, "I'm going to pee."

Then, she left while holding her belly.

She must have drunk too much wine.

Only after a few steps, Stars suddenly had a fit of dizziness. She didn't fall over because she leaned herself against the wall in time. Then, she stumbled out of the private room.

After opening the door, Stars looked at her left and right to determine the direction of the toilet. Unexpectedly, she saw a familiar figure.

James!

Ho-ho, Enemies always met. She would teach him a lesson!

Through the power of wine, Stars roared with arms akimbo, "James!"

James heard a familiar voice and stopped. Oh? She found him.

He turned around.

The distance between them was a few meters. Even though the lights of the corridor were dim, he could still see her crimson face and misted eyes.

One side of her shoulder straps fell to her arm, which revealed her snow-white shoulder and sexy collarbone. Her bosom could be seen faintly.

He didn't expect that she, who had a boyish temperament, had a good figure.

At this moment, she goggled at him with anger and had a capricious and domineering attitude.

James looked at her with interest.

Lucy looked suspiciously at the woman who called James by name. She couldn't see the woman's face due to the long distance. But she didn't understand how her stand-in knew James.

She was about to reprimand her.

"Take Miss. Mill to the private room." James instructed John, who had been following him. Then, he strode to Stars.

John raised his hand with an invitatory gesture, "Miss. Mill, please."

Mr. Green clearly showed his intention that he didn't want them to see what would happen.

Even though Lucy had a lot of dissatisfaction and uncertainty in her heart, she didn't dare to lose her temper.

She had Alice, who was an autistic child, as a bargaining counter in her hand, but it didn't mean that she could do whatever she wanted in the world of James.

Lucy snorted, turned her head, and left.

James took off his coat while walking. When he arrived in front of Stars, the first thing he did was to cover her with the wide coat so that other men couldn't enjoy this wonderful sight.

"James, you..." Stars was drunk. Staring at the man, who was in front of her, with misted eyes, she wanted to scold him fiercely, but she couldn't keep the momentum. So, she seemed as if his lover who had with him, "Why are you so despicable?"

He often bullied her.

Thinking of what had happened today, Stars felt wronged in her heart. She couldn't hold back her tears.

James couldn't enumerate how many times she had scolded him without any reason. The middle of his eyebrows went pit-a-pat. He was about to lose his temper. But when he saw her eyes filled with tears, his anger melted immediately. He said, "I, what's wrong with me?"

"You did it, but you didn't dare to admit it!" Stars spat at him, "I didn't say yes to your proposal. Unexpectedly, you asked someone to throw my luggage away. You have a wife. Why did you still propose to me?... You, you are a scum who play with others' emotions!"

Stars scolded him with all her strength.

No, she felt dizzy.

She closed her eyes. In a short while, she fell asleep in a daze.

She fell asleep while scolding him. Seeing this, James thought of Alice, who fell asleep while having a meal. They achieved the same result by different methods. But she was a grown woman...

How cute she was!

Since she was asleep, it wasn't safe to take her back to the private room. James carried her in his arms and took her to the suite upstairs.

...

Stars woke up with a terrible headache. When she found herself in a strange room, she was startled, sat up immediately, and examined her clothes!

Thank goodness! Her clothes were still on her body!

Stars felt relieved.

Hearing a click of a door latch, Stars looked over there vigilantly.

In the next second, she saw James walk from the inside in his loose pajamas. He only tied one strap around his waist. His strong chest and long legs were partly hidden and partly visible under the pajamas.

Water droplets were dripping from his hair.

Wow.

When he wore clothes, he looked slim. But, when he took off clothes, he was sturdy. She didn't expect that he was this type of man!

Seeing a handsome man out of the shower early in the morning, Stars subconsciously touched her nose. Fortunately, she didn't have the nosebleed. After reading Amitabha several times in her heart, she questioned him coldly, "Why am I here?"

James took up a bottle of mineral water and twisted the cap off the bottle. After hearing her words, he paused for a moment, and said, "After seeing me last night, someone kept scolding me and fell asleep in the middle of the scold."

"..."

Stars couldn't believe that she became so fierce that she dared to scold James after being drunk.

However, she didn't expect that he was quite magnanimous. She scolded him. He still took her in.

Sleeping on a couch was better than sleeping in an unknown corner of the nightclub. People who had some pastime in the nightclub were not decent. If someone had attacked her...

Stars had a fear after the event.

Hey, she had better drink less outside in the future.

Stars stood up, "You lied to me. Then, you saved me. Well, let's write off gratitude and resentment at one stroke."

After saying these words, she intended to leave.

"I don't have a wife." Stars had mentioned that he had a wife. James wasn't quite sure why she said that. But the process wasn't important. What mattered was the result.

He needed to explain it clearly to Stars.

Stars didn't expect him to say this. She stopped and spoke without any consideration, "Well, Alice..."

"Alice's birth was accidental," James said.

"..."

Why did these words sound so scummy?

However, Stars still didn't believe him, "I heard your maid call her Mrs. Green in person."

"That's for giving Alice a complete home," James answered whatever she asked him.

However, he had a second thought now. If she didn't love Alice, Alice wouldn't need such a mother at all.

Stars came to understand suddenly. It explained the matter!

Immediately, she got rid of grievances, which had accumulated in her heart. She even felt a little joy.

It was weird. After hearing that James didn't have a wife, why did she feel so happy? Bah, he didn't dally with her. Thus, she felt happy!
