Chapter 618
“Of course. Who else would give you such lavish presents?” The man smacked Louisa on her rump.
“Stop, there are so many people. My husband‘s here too.”
Zion clenched his fists when Leonardo was talking, his veins popping, but he relaxed after that.
Louisa, her arm still linked with the man‘s, walked into the shop.
James pulled Zion aside, asking, “Zion, what‘s going on? Why did you marry her?”
“James, don‘t.” Zion looked troubled.
“Tell me.”
James‘expression darkened.
Many people had arrived this morning.
All of them were far too close to Louisa.
“James, don‘t ask.” Zion still looked troubled.
“Zion, if you think of me as a friend, tell me.”
Thinking about how James helped him at Dragon Fountain Villa, Zion hesitated before pulling James aside. Softly, he said, “I–I
married Louisa a year ago. She came to me and told me she liked me. She even asked if I would marry her and was willing to
forgo wedding presents. “I was almost thirty, and no woman had liked me because I was poor. I thought that Louisa was quite
pretty, so I agreed.” James asked, “Don‘t you know what she was doing before?” Zion nodded. “I didn‘t at first, but I found out
later on. She was working at a high–class nightclub. She was the star, but now she‘s come clean.”
“Get a divorce.”
James did not have much to say.
He did not want to see his friend in hell.
Louisa was just looking for an honest man to take her in. It was alright if she had really turned over a new leaf. However, based
on her actions, she was still fooling around with men.
Zion was obviously being cuckolded. “James, I can‘t. To set up this store, I dumped my savings of two hundred thousand into it. I
even borrowed another three hundred thousand from friends and family. I put in five hundred thousand, and the rest is Louisa‘s.
Now the business has just started. How could I get a divorce?”
Zion looked sorrowful.
He knew everything that was going on but pretended not to.
He was lucky enough to marry such a beautiful woman like Louisa,
As for the fact that she was still in touch with her former clients, Louisa waved it off as maintaining relationships so that they
would lend her their support at the restaurant.
James took a deep breath, “The presents are mine. The cash, the jade pieces, the lion, and the gold cutlery are all yours. Get a
divorce and pay her what you owe her. Purchase her shares.”
“James, are the presents really from you?”
Zion still could not quite believe it.
It was millions in cash.
The presents did not come cheap either.
How could he afford it?
James patted Zion on the shoulder. “We‘re bros. A token from me.”
“James, the presents are too valuable. I can‘t take them. Furthermore, we just met by chance, how could ...”
James waved a hand, interrupting him. He smiled. “What do you mean? Ten years ago, we were inseparable.”
Zion was stunned. “Y–you are?”
James smiled. “That‘s right. I just changed my appearance for certain reasons.”
“James, it‘s really you! You‘re the Black Dragon!” James put a finger to his lips. “Hush! My identity is top secret. Do you want
everyone to find out?”
Zion looked at James, surprised yet happy. He did not expect that the man who helped him at Dragon Fountain Villa was James
Caden from ten years ago, his classmate, his best friend.
