Rebirth: Clinging to My Possessive Magnate-Chapter 842: Dumbstruck

"Ophelia, this matter is between you and me; don’t involve others," James sighed in disappointment. "I never thought my casual words would lead to such a misunderstanding. It’s all my fault."

"Had I known earlier, I wouldn’t have told you."

James’s magnanimity and thoughtfulness made Ophelia feel nauseous: "James, do you have any shame left?"

Why hadn’t she seen James’s true colors earlier?

James had calculated every step so well, making everyone believe he was deeply affectionate, while she was the ungrateful wretch!

Shameless!

Utterly shameless!

"Ophelia, that’s enough!" Hayley couldn’t stand it any longer and defended James, "Stop throwing mud on James. You should think about how to explain to the police about hiring those four men to deal with Sophie."

Hearing Hayley mention this, Ophelia let out a bitter laugh, her eyes bloodshot as she stared angrily at James and asked, "James, who uploaded that video online?"

James was taken aback, looking at Ophelia in confusion.

Feigning!

Still pretending!

"It was you! Someone used that video to blackmail you, and instead of paying to take it down, you had it uploaded online! You wanted to abandon me and marry Hayley!"

"Am I useless to you now? Hayley is way more useful, isn’t she? The chairman’s daughter! James, you’re going to latch onto another big fish!"

Ophelia’s words were filled with agony and tears, leaving everyone present dumbfounded. If James really was as Ophelia described... then things were going to get interesting.

"Alright, stop listening to her nonsense!" Hayley quickly urged the police, "Take her away already. If there’s anything to discuss, do it inside. Otherwise, this mad dog will just randomly bite people!"

The scene was chaotic, reporters wanting interviews, Ophelia incessantly cursing James, while James, full of guilt and helplessness, tried explaining to Ophelia over and over, only to be scolded viciously each time as the police struggled to escort Ophelia out...

"This is such a mess." Watching the live broadcast, George remarked, "Things are really lively on James’s side."

"Julian, do you think what Ophelia said is true?" George asked, "Even if it is, why is Ophelia only realizing it now? She has no leverage; exposing James like this...for her, it’s nothing but mutually assured destruction."

"Is Ophelia shameless?" Julian suddenly asked, "Living under the guise of my aunt in the Wilson Clan, trying to destroy Sophie; is she shameless?"

"Of course, she’s shameless," George replied instinctively.

"Compared to James?" Julian pressed on.

"Naturally, she’s no match for James," George laughed.

"So, letting a shameless person taste the shamelessness from others — isn’t that the best retribution?" Julian said as he stood up, "I’m going to shoot a scene."

George watched Julian, suddenly turning smart, with stupefaction: "How did you suddenly become so sharp?"

"Because you are stupid," Julian replied before turning and leaving. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

George: "..."

This brat needs a good lesson, doesn’t he?

Little did he know, on his way to the set, Julian was almost crying from laughter.

George’s expression was truly dopey; is this the image he had in his uncle and aunt’s eyes?
