Chapter 451 Killing with Praise (1)
"You!"
Linda rushed forward and said, "Today, I'm going to teach you a lesson as an elder, you ill-mannered girl!"
However, before her slap could land, James grabbed her wrist.
Linda glared at him, nervously asking, "What do you think you're doing? Do you dare to hit me?"
"I don't hit women, but in my house, no one is allowed to act recklessly! No one is allowed to touch my woman, not even a finger!"
With that, he pushed Linda away, his deep eyes as cold as a winter pond.
But Linda was not about to give up so easily.
In the past, with Gerald protecting her, she was oppressed by James. Now, with George and Jack sitting at the top of The Kelly Corporation, how could she tolerate James?
"James, I advise you to be sensible and make this girl kneel and apologize to me! Also, the will your grandpa left was clearly altered by you. His assets should have gone to your dad, not you. He only had one son, your dad, so all the assets should rightfully belong to him!"
Linda sneered, "If you listen, you might still get some dividends from The Kelly Corporation in the future. If we have to take this to court, I guarantee your dad will have the board remove you! Someone like you, who has lived a pampered life, probably doesn't even know what hardship is!"
For the first time, James understood what greed truly meant.
Linda actually wanted him to hand over all of Gerald's assets to George.
Given his relationship with George, George would likely leave everything to Jack in the future.
James found it increasingly laughable and couldn't help but chuckle.
Linda became even angrier and shouted at him, "What are you laughing at?"
Even Jessica felt that James was acting very strangely at this moment.
Could it be that he was driven mad by Linda? Or scared senseless?
Linda's bullying had ignited all of Jessica's fighting spirit, and she just wanted to roll up her sleeves and chase Linda out with a broom!
But at this moment, James looked at Linda with contempt and said, "I'm laughing because you've been married into The Kelly Family for so long, and you haven't improved at all. You're still this greedy!"
Linda was furious and gritted her teeth, "So, you're refusing? Fine, James, then we'll see each other in court!"
"Whatever."
James casually said and then told Olivia, "See her out! If she comes to the house again, just throw her out. No need to report to me."
Linda was thus thrown out, and even in the yard, her voice echoed, "James, just you wait! One day, I'll make you kneel before me and our Jack and apologize!"
It was a long time before her voice completely faded away.
Jessica was a bit stunned and looked at him worriedly, "What should we do? If she sues you and distorts the truth, what should we do?"
James smiled, his handsome face close to hers, "What? Worried about me?"
Jessica pushed him away, her expression serious, "I'm not joking! Do you have a solution? If the company is given up, can we at least keep grandpa's will? I'm not after grandpa's assets."
James nodded and asked, "So, all your worries are for grandpa? Aren't you afraid that one day I'll end up on the streets with nothing?"
