Chapter 21 Iâve Always Wanted Him
âJamesâ¦â
Paul, who had recovered from his shock, hurriedly called out to him, but James didnât even turn his head.
Kevin looked at Jamesâ back and asked, âSomething wrong with your brother?â
Paul smiled and said, âHeâs the only heir of the Evans Group, so heâs under a lot of pressure.
Occasionally he lets his temper get the better of him. Please donât mind his behavior, Mr. Harris.â
After simply explaining, Paul picked up his glass and apologized to them. âIâll drink a glass of wine on his behalf as a punishment.â
After finishing it in one gulp, Paul put down the glass and said gently, âYou two have fun. Iâm going to check on my brother.â
He maintained his politeness and manners throughout the conversation, and since there was no reason to keep him any longer, Kevin said, âLetâs meet again next time.â
Paul nodded, put on his shirt, picked up his suit jacket, and hurriedly left.
Kayla looked like she wanted to play another game. But seeing that Paul had left, she had no choice but to throw away the cards
in her hand and follow him quickly out the door.
Then, Kevin and Amelia were left in the private room, the silence deafening. Kevin was a little frustrated, and rubbed the space between his eyebrows.
He had originally hoped that after having some fun, they could discuss the project, but James had left so abruptly before he could even bring it up. Luck was not on his side tonight.
He was no longer in the mood to play. He waved his hand and drov e the others out of the private room.
After everyone had left, he looked at Amelia with confusion. âDo you know James?â
From the beginning, James had been making things difficult for Amelia, especially after hearing that Kevin had slept with her.
This proved that there was more to their relationship than just acquaintances. It was clear that it was far deeper than that.
Amelia sat still in her kneeling position, drops of red wine dripping down her face. The deep red of the wine running down her fair cheeks, almost like tears, made her appear stunningly beautiful, yet also deeply sad.
