The way that James dealt with matters was a bit ruthless.
In the business fight, if you didn’t be cruel to others, you would lose in the fierce competition.
Therefore, James did not care about what others thought of him.
He was too lazy to explain.
To people who did not understand him, there was no need to explain.
Facing his grandmother, James still did not want to explain.
Being questioned by James, Zoey felt a little guilty. She had personally seen how James handled things back then.
It was because she had seen how James handled things that she chose him to be the president of the SA Group.
The SA Group could have today’s glory, which proved that she made the right decision back then.
However, she still cared about the matter of the child.
“Since you won’t hurt your child, why is Kathleen missing?”
James let out a sneer, saying, “Why is she missing? You should ask her. I don’t know.”
Zoey saw him pretending to be confused and her face turned red with anger.
“Do you mean the child in Kathleen’s belly is not yours?”
“Grandma, you don’t have good taste.”
James sneered. At this moment, his bad temper was exposed.
Zoey asked impatiently, “James, tell me the truth. Do you sleep with her during the Dragon Boat Festival?”
James played dumb, saying, “Who?”
Zoey gritted her teeth and said, “Kathleen!”
James sneered.
James picked up the document in his hand and threw it on the table, making a noise. Zoey was so scared that her shoulders trembled.
“I didn’t sleep with her. Grandma, you are too hasty.”
Hearing this, Zoey knew that James was angry. She was anxious to have a great-grandson, but she was also doing this for James’ good!
“Grandma, if you and my uncle come to my office for this. I am busy with work. Nolan, please get my grandma out!”
Zoey wore a long face.
“James, you uncle and I came to talk about your aunt and cousin. Didn’t you agree to let Emma stay?”
“There is no school that accepts her. My aunt wants her to go to college, so I help her go abroad. Is that wrong?”
Emma could not go to university at home because James did something.
But there was no evidence for such a thing, and Zoey could not argue with him.
“You know that your cousin suffered some bad things when she was a child. She didn’t want to leave her mother or go abroad. Yet you transferred her mother to work in Australia.”
James sent Emma to England but sent Emily to go to Australia. This was clearly to separate the mother and daughter.
“Grandma!”
James lost his patience and coldly interrupted Zoey.
“Just because Emma suffered some injuries when she was a child, you all allowed her to do whatever she wanted. She did something wrong, and you forgave her easily. Grandma, is this upbringing of the Hemmings?”
Zoey stared at him, stunned, not knowing how to refute him.
It was because Zoey sympathized with Emma for getting hurt when she was a child that Zoey indulged her. Sometimes, when Emma made a mistake, Zoey turned a blind eye to it.
James was right. They could not use the excuse of being young to cover up the problem of her character.
This time, Emily cried for a few days with a pale face. Zoey couldn’t bear it and ran to argue with James.
She was a little reckless in handling this matter.
She was dull now.
“I am not the only one who decides my aunt’s work. It is the result of everyone’s discussion.”
Zoey pinched her eyebrows and sighed, “Alright, I’m getting old. I’m dull now. Since the SA Group is in your hands, I shouldn’t interfere here.”
Hearing this, James frowned.
In the Hemmings’, only his grandparents took care of him. After his grandfather passed away, Zoey always complained that she was too lonely. James did not have time to take care of her.
“James, do whatever you want. I should go back and rest.”
“Grandma.”
James got up and walked to her side. He wanted to support her, but Zoey shook him off.
“James, I’m getting old. Sometimes, there is no one around to talk with me. After your aunt divorced and went home, I finally no longer lonely.”
Zoey said in a low tone.
Nolan, who was standing at the side, was somewhat touched when he heard Zoey’s words, not to mention James, Zoey’s grandson.
“James, I may die at any time. At that time, I’m afraid that I wouldn’t be able to see my only daughter and granddaughter.”
Zoey’s sigh echoed in the silent office.
James frowned. His clenched fists loosened a bit, but he still did not say anything.
Seeing this, Zoey sneered.
“James, you are busy at work and can’t take care of your grandmother. Now that your aunt has been transferred, your grandmother can’t see them when she misses them. You should help them.”
Marcos, who had been standing at the side for a long time, said.
James glanced at him and sneered.
“Lily is also grandmother’s granddaughter. She should come back to take care of her grandmother.”
…
Hearing this, Marcos’ smile froze on his lips and he took a step back gloomily.
Lily studied in England, and she asked to take over the branch company of the SA Group in England as soon as she graduated.
James suddenly thought of something and sneered at Marcos.
“Speaking of which, my fourth uncle is not in this city, and my parents often go abroad. You should take the responsibility of taking care of my grandmother.”
To be filial to their parents was what children should be responsible for.
Zoey complained that no one took care of her and blamed James for it, but it wasn’t James’ fault!
James was usually busy at work. In the past, for the development of the SA Group, he had been abroad for at least twenty days a month.
He supported the SA Group that was about to close down and became what it was today, so he did not owe the Hemmings anything.
However, some people were greedy and wanted to get a higher position.
He won’t let them succeed.
“I’m tired. I should go back and rest!”
Zoey wanted to ask James to leave Emily and Emma at home. But James didn’t agree, which made Zoey angry.
She walked out of the office without waiting for Marcos.
Nolan raised his eyebrows and respectfully sent Zoey off, which made Zoey angrier.
Seeing Zoey coming over aggressively and leaving disappointedly, Nolan felt happy.
Looking at the lonely James, Nolan sighed.
Zoey said that she was alone and needed her daughter and granddaughter to stay with her.
However, since John passed away, James was also alone.
