Chapter 209

In the second room of a villa, clothing belonging to a man and a woman was scattered all around the floor. A pair of torn black pantyhose hung over the couch.

James leaned against the bed and smoked his cigarette after he was done with the deed. The satisfaction across his face was evident.

Beside him, the woman behaved flirtatiously, almost as if she was still lingering on the passionate act that had just happened.

Suddenly, his phone vibrated.

James took a drag of his cigarette and answered the phone.

Liam said respectfully, "Mr. Fullerton, the Yates family had just held a press conference, announcing the annulment of the engagement with the Jacobsons.

"Also, there's news spreading online about Stephen entering a hotel with an A-list celebrity. He's being suspected of cheating."

James scoffed, commenting, "And here I thought he was a deep and devoted man. Turns out, he's just another playboy like his father."

"How about the Yates family?" Liam asked.

James contemplated the question. Then, he instructed, "Continue to keep an eye on them. There's a chance that the annulment is fake and they're pretending to deceive me."

"I understand, Mr. Fullerton."

"Also, keep an eye out for Tessa Yates. I want you to report to me if there's any movement on her end," James added.

"Alright."
