“So, you only found that out today?” Keith snorted, clearly not believing in James’ words. That was not what James said when urging him to get married sooner.

“Anyway, I won’t interfere with your business anymore. It depends on whether you have what it takes to marry Alice now.” Without waiting for a reply, James turned around and left.

Keith was utterly stunned as he realized his grandfather would stop caring about this.

His grandfather had always been defiant, but now he suddenly stopped caring about this matter, and there was only one possible reason—he had fallen for Alice’s tricks and was no longer in the position to have a say about this matter.

Who was James Rowland? Back then, he was an all-powerful, top figure in the city. Also, James was different from others. He always did unconventional things and wasn’t afraid of challenges, which was why he always had a way to deal with things. However, it was clear that he couldn’t deal with Alice.

“Old Mr. Rowland, dinner is ready. How about staying for dinner?” Amelia was secretly happy to see that Alice seemed to have lost her chance, and she thought if she could please James, perhaps Emma might get a chance to marry into the Rowland Family.

Although Emma wasn’t her child, she had been obedient all these years and was easy to control.

“Emma specially made a few dishes. She’s a great cook.” At this moment, Amelia was eagerly complimenting Emma to make her seem like a perfect person.

Of course, Amelia didn’t do that because she liked Emma. She was doing it because she was thinking about the advantages the Woland Family could get if Emma could marry Keith.

“Today won’t do. Alice has something to do, and it might be displeasing to someone if I stayed any longer.” When James said that, he didn’t say it in a displeased stone. Instead, he was looking at Alice with a grin.

Once he was done, the expressions on everyone’s faces changed.

Did James mean that Alice had already asked him to leave? However, not only didn’t James look angry, but he also seemed quite happy about it. What was happening?
