Simon looked at his younger brother and felt helpless. He let out a deep breath and softened his tone.
“Roger, it will take a while for the drug on you to dilute. You will be fine after a few days of rest. I’m busy. I have to go.”
However, Roger held his hand and didn’t let him go. “Simon, I have very important things to do now. I have to stand up.”
“Roger, if you have something to do, I will ask someone to help you. But you can’t mess around, OK?”
“I’m not messing around. Simon, you are only busy with your own matters. Are you very impatient with me?” Roger willfully accused.
Only in front of Simon would he be so indulgent and not restrain his emotions.
Simon didn’t know what to do. He patiently tried to persuade him. “Roger, if I were impatient, I wouldn’t have come to you. Be good, I’m really busy and can’t accompany you. If you feel bored, I’ll have someone bring a computer over, or you can paint.”
Simon had been very patient with his younger brother. He was not so patient with his own daughter.
However, Roger did not buy it. He grabbed Simon’s arm and threatened coldly.
“Simon, if you don’t think of a way to help me recover as soon as possible, I will tell father that you are busy with your work without caring about me.”
Simon was stunned and stared at his arm. Roger had followed behind him since he was young.
Their parents were busy, so their parents rarely spent time with them. Simon brought Roger up and he was indulgent to Roger.
Now Simon had to reflect on a question. Was Roger spoiled by him?
He fiercely shook off Roger’s hand and let out a sneer.
“Roger, I told you that if you want to recover, you have to wait for a few days. You threatened me that you would tell father so that father would blame or teach me a lesson. Fine! Suit yourself.”
Roger sensed the change in Simon’s attitude and realized that he had said something wrong. He wanted to grab Simon’s hand again, but Simon took two steps back and kept his distance from Roger.
“Simon, I didn’t mean that. I was just in a hurry to recover.”
“Roger, you are no longer a child. Before doing anything, you have to think.” Simon tried to persuade him calmly. Perhaps he was too angry just now. At that moment, he was calm.
“This time, you joined hands with Corey to take James’ wife away, but you told this news to Kason and asked Kason to take James’ wife away.
“James’ wife has no enmity with you, but you sent her to Kason. Aren’t you sending her to die?
“James is ruthless. He didn’t take your life this time. He just paralyzed your legs for a few days. You should reflect on it.
“In the future, when you meet him, you have to walk away. Do you understand?”
Simon only found out about these things after the investigation. He was surprised that James could enter his villa without anyone noticing. But Roger was so bold that he wanted to blackmail James.
When he thought about the situation that night, he felt lingering fear.
If James had any evil intentions, James could kill Roger, cover it, and let Kendra take the blame. No one would find out the truth.
The more Simon thought about it, the more terrified he became.
If James wanted to kill Roger with his methods, it would be easy. However, Roger still had value, so James kept Roger alive.
When Roger heard the name of his enemy, his face turned dark.
If it weren’t for James, he wouldn’t have become like this right now. Roger was unable to move.
And when he thought that James was in Mandy’s villa, he felt fear and worry.
Mandy liked James. If they got together, then Roger would have no chance at all.
However, after thinking so much, he never thought of Kara, who was almost killed because of him.
Simon saw his face change and thought that he was frightened, so Simon tried to comfort him.
“Roger, after you recover, don’t go to NK City. Stay in B City honestly. If you really like that woman from the Abbot family, father and I will think of a way to help you.”
“No, I want to win Mandy’s heart myself!” Roger interrupted him with a determined expression.
Simon knew that he could not persuade Roger, so he could only let Roger calm down. Then Simon turned to leave the room.
Hearing the sound of the door closing, Roger immediately called the servant in. He wanted to investigate James’ situation now.
Roger could use the soldiers that his father had given him.
From his subordinates, Roger learned that James was now wanted all over the country. Moreover, after Mandy saved James, James and Kara stayed in Mandy’s villa.
Then it was not difficult to guess who bullied Valerie.
Kara must have been aware of the crisis when she saw Mandy, so she deliberately made things difficult for Valerie.
Roger had thought of many possibilities in his mind that Kara would hurt Valerie, but he had never thought that Valerie might hurt Kara.
When he learned that James was now wanted all over the country, a proud look flashed across his face.
‘James, how dare you scheme against me? I will not let you off!’
He took out his phone and made a phone call.
At that time, in Mandy’s villa, Kara fell asleep under the sun, and James was worried that she would catch a cold, so he picked her up and carried her back to the room.
But as soon as Kara got on the bed, she woke up and narrowed her eyes to stare at him.
“Is it time for lunch?”
James was lost for words.
Was food the only thing on her mind?
This was not Kara’s fault. Recently, she often felt hungry. She also knew that she could not eat too much. Otherwise, it would hurt her stomach.
However, she just couldn’t help it. Moreover, this was someone else’s villa. There were many inconveniences, so she could only endure them.
Kara touched her stomach. Occasionally, there was a burst of pain, but she could live with it.
“Are you hungry again?”
James helped her up and covered her with a thin blanket.
Kara glanced at him and nodded, feeling that she was a foodie. She was afraid that he would dislike her.
“Wait.” James left the room.
After a few seconds, James pushed the door open and quickly walked to the bedside to pick her up.
“What’s wrong?” Kara put her arm around his neck in surprise.
“Someone is investigating the villa. We need to hide.” As James explained, he carried her out of the bedroom. Mandy stood outside the door and then led them into her study room.
Mandy walked into her study room and pressed a button. She opened the bookshelf and a door appeared. She opened the door and let James in.
“James, wait here for a moment. I will chase them away,” Mandy said gently.
James glanced at her and nodded. “Sorry for the trouble.”
“It’s no trouble. We are friends. Since I brought you here, I will ensure your safety,” said Mandy excitedly.
Kara watched Mandy leave, secretly rolling her eyes.
Although she was very grateful to Mandy for saving her, Mandy was saving James and Kara was only an accessory.
Kara suddenly felt very uncomfortable because he thought that Mandy saved James and her to win James’ heart.
However, it was a critical moment. Kara could not expose these thoughts.
