Chapter 101: Don’t Mock Me
Sophia gasped and stared at Jameson for a while before she could find her tongue. “Jameson! He’s your brother! How can you be so cruel?! Where the hell did you get that idea from?”Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.
“My brother? Only half, biologically.” Jameson said with a sneer. “He and his mother never accepted us and looked down upon us. I can’t stand him either.”
“That’s between you and him as brothers, but I’m telling you, if you ever hurt him, I won’t let you off,” Sophia said sternly.
“Even though he only cares about Sol Keaton and now probably his wife as well, and he will never give a shit about you, you will still love him? Sophia Moore, what are you doing to yourself, disgracing yourself for a man?”
“Don’t you mock me! You aren’t any better. How’s The Slut of Las Vegas treating you?”
Jameson sneered and said casually, “Ha-ha. It’s over between her and me. Sophia Moore, don’t you understand? With girls like Maggie Taylor, I can dump her whenever I want, but you are obsessed with Scott, a guy that you can never have. Well, if you work with me to set him up, and when he is in a desperate place where he has to ask you for help, then you might have a chance.”
Sophia was about to open the door and leave, but she stopped and turned around, “Why would he ask me for help?” she asked.
“Well, not you exactly, but your father and brother. He will ask through you. He needs you to get help from them. Then, you have the power to ask him to do what you want. To marry you perhaps?” Jameson spoke confidently and winked at her with a playful smile.
Sophia went quiet for a bit. She seemed to be tempted, but soon, she retorted with a disdainful look, “Don’t you try to trick me. If Scott gets hurt and becomes desperate, you will be the one that gets the most benefits. I won’t allow you to use me to hurt the man I love.” She walked out and slammed the door shut behind.
Zara went over to Jameson and intended to lean onto him intimately, but Jameson pushed her off. Feeling embarrassed, Zara stepped backward with an awkward smile. Since she started working for Jameson, Zara had slowly become enchanted by his dangerously charming look. She didn’t care much about Liam Williams anymore but intended to get close to Jameson. However, Jameson had not shown her any hope.
He hired her only for the reason that she hated Brianna and could be useful to himself.
“Mr. Jameson Anderson, it’s a shame that Miss Sophia Moore won’t cooperate,” Zara said.
“I’ve underestimated her loyalty to Scott. I didn’t think that she would rather allow him to be with other women than revenge.” Jameson said indifferently.
“But haven’t you persuaded Jake Moore, her brother? What use is she to you anyway?”
“Not much use, but she can be an obstacle for me to have Scott killed. If she interferes, her father or brother might spare Scott’s life.”
“Aha, I see.”
“I have confidence that with the help of Jake Moore and Chris Butler, Scott won’t last long.”
“Who is this Chris Butler, by the way?”
“I actually don’t know much about him yet. He’s a mysterious one. However, I’m certain that he will be Scott’s biggest enemy. He has got businesses all over the world, covering various industries. Since he came to Las Vegas, he has been plotting against Scott. We just need to wait and watch and give him a hand when necessary.”
“Don’t you want to collaborate with him?”
“We will see,” Jameson replied indirectly, not giving her much information.
Zara had slowly learned that Jameson wasn’t just a carefree playboy like how people usually perceived him. He wasn’t someone to be controlled.
“Oh, Jameson, I was to tell you that Chris Butler even sent flowers to that bitch today!” Zara said angrily.
Jameson sneered. “It’s just one of Chris Butler’s tricks.”
“You know what, I thought perhaps there’s something we can do to accelerate this war between Chris Butler and Scott Anderson.”
“Why? Have you got a plan?”
Thinking about how well Brianna was living her life now, Zara felt insanely jealous and resentful. “Well, something like kidnapping her and threatening Scott Anderson with some company shares. And if he refuses to save him, then we can have her gang-raped, and we will record it and send it to him. He will hate that. When he comes to rescue, then we might take the chance to have him shot dead.”
Jameson watched Zara quietly as he listened. She’s surely a merciless one. He thought. “It’s unnecessary. Jake Moore will have revenge soon. Also, Chris Butler must be thinking of using her to defeat Scott. When they are certain about how important she is to Scott, they will probably kidnap her to threaten him.” He said casually.
“But is that bitch really so important to Scott Anderson?”
“I hope so. If not, then we make it happen.” Jameson said thoughtfully.
Meanwhile, in a private room at a café in the city center Chris Butler and Scott were discussing some potential collaboration.
“Mr. Butler, you have been in the game industry for some years and are very successful, I would say. I believe we can work together and develop some new games. I will invest ten billion.” Scott said after taking a look at the proposal.
“Nice. I like that. When would you like to sign the contract?”
“In three days.”
“Wonderful.”
Levi started going through the details with Chris Butler’s assistant while Scott and Chris chatted over coffee about more general stuff.
Though it might sound like a casual and friendly conversation, both were actually trying to dig each other.
Suddenly, Scott’s phone rang. He took a look at the screen, then at Chris. Chris nodded, implying that it was ok, so Scott answered.
He listened while looking at Chris coldly. After he hung up, Chris seemed to have guessed what the phone call was about, and he said with a smile, “I do think green roses are perfect for Brianna.”
“You think so? She has thrown it into the bin.” Scott said coldly.
