A Vengeful Girl

Chapter 338 James Came

The meeting was fast paced. Charles and some staff had to catch a plane, so everyone made their

presentations short.

Charles listened quietly

And expressed his opinions occasionally.

Sophia sat and rested her head on her hands. Her delicate make-up, small face, smooth skin, and sexy

dress attracted the men in the meeting room. They all cast a glance at her from time to time.

But those with a discerning eye easily noticed that her eyes were fixed on Charles.

Unfortunately for her, Charles didn't turn his head to her at all. His eyes were either on the reports in

front of him or on the other people around the table, leaving Sophia depressed.

They were having a heated discussion and finalizing plans when someone knocked on the door.

Mary entered and whispered to Paul, "Manager, Mr. James is here. He wants to talk to Mr. Charles."

"Mr. James?"

Paul was confused for a second, and then he realized that she meant Lord James, Charles's father.

Paul had a bad feeling about it. Lord James hadn't been in charge of the Mu group for years ever since

he handed the whole business to Charles in confidence. Why was he here today, wanting to talk to

Charles? Something important must have happened.

Paul walked quickly to Charles and whispered to him, "Younng Master, Lord James is here."

Charles went blank for a while and then told Paul, "Okay. Preside over this meeting. I'll go see him."

Anyway, Charles had only intended to stay for about twenty minutes to receive updates personally.

Now that he had already come up with new plans, he didn't need to listen any longer.

His firm built, confident posture, and stable strides attracted Sophia so much that she couldn't move

her eyes away from him. But his sudden leave annoyed her a little. Why did he have to leave so soon?

Why didn't he show any care to her? She was the most popular star in this company.

He didn't even cast a glance at her.

Wasn't she beautiful?

Of course, she was. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been recruited and trained to become a popular star.

Sophia watched him leave, a trace of determination appeared in her eyes.

'Charles, sooner or later, you're only going to want to look at me!'

Charles hurried to his office with his briefcase. James was waiting anxiously inside.

Seeing that Charles came, he hastily stood up.

"What happened, father? What brings you here?"

Charles was confused.

Wouldn't a phone call be more convenient? Why bother coming here in person?

"Charles! What have you done to the Qi group? You know that Bob and Amanda are my good old

friends. Why are you destroying their business?"

Charles had once agreed to let them go. James had thought that Charles would keep his promise and Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.

let the past stay in the past.

So when he found out that Charles was actively trying to destroy the Qi Group, he hurriedly went to

him.

"Father, please don't ask about it. I promise I'll handle it."

Charles definitely knew how close their two clans were, so he didn't want to ruin Bob and Amanda's

images in James's mind. He'd rather be the bad one in his father's eyes.

"Charles, tell me the truth! What exactly happened? Did Amy do something bad? If she didn't go too

far, just let her go. After all. She has loved you ever since you were kids. Now that you are engaged to

Linda, it's natural for her to be jealous... One can't just get rid of love-"

Charles interrupted him, "Father, you have no idea what she did to Linda. Haven't you noticed how

strange the 'Linda' in our house is acting during the past few months?"

"What do you mean?"

Asked James.

"She is a fake. Didn't you find her very different from Linda that we know? Both in terms of personality

and mannerisms?"

Charles was patient enough to explain this. After all, the man in front of him was his father.

Charles' words reminded him of something unusual. He did feel that Linda's personality had changed a

lot, but he attributed the change to her pregnancy.

What's more, the girl in their house looked exactly the same as Linda. James thought it impossible to

find two people who looked completely alike in this world, so he didn't think too much about it.

"Someone pretended to be Linda?"

James was horrified by the idea of it.

"Yes. Do you know how Amy tortured my Linda? She slashed her face with a knife and left dozens of

scars on it. Then, she threw her into a river! She could have died! Father, I wish I could carve Amy to

pieces!"

Charles said in a trembling voice. The scene was too horrible to imagine. "If it weren't for Lord Nalan, I

might have lost the love of my life."

"Lord Nalan? Did he save Linda? Do you mean Mr. Richard Nalan?"

Charles nodded and continued. "He is Linda's grandfather. Thankfully, he took good care of Linda.

Otherwise... I can't even imagine what could've happened. So, Father, please let me do it. The Qi clan

must pay the price, "

Charles said seriously.

James remained silent for a while. Then, he sighed. He understood that Charles had already made up

his mind, and what Amy had done was indeed unforgivable, so he said no more.

He just patted Charles on the shoulder and said, "Since Amy had made a big mistake, I won't stop your

plot against her. She should pay for her evil acts. But I think Bob and Amanda had nothing to do with it.

Can you spare them?"

Charles surely knew it had nothing to do with Bob and Amanda.

Bob had always been a good and respectable man, while his daughter...
