James took a look after he regained his senses and saw that it was Old Master Shaw. He was so frightened that he almost wet himself.
"S-Sir, hello...hello, I..." James was trembling in fear and he did not know what to say.
At that moment, he even felt that he may lose his life. That was because Old Master Shaw had two tall and strong bodyguards following behind Old Master Shaw. Those bodyguards looked well-built and tough at a glance and were very professional. If Old Master Shaw were to see through his intentions, then it would not be just as simple as being imprisoned for him anymore. He would be torn into a million pieces. By then, not only would not get a single penny, but he would even lose his life. He looked at Old Mater Shaw very cautiously.
Old Master Shaw, however, had a cold and fierce expression. "I heard from my daughter's friend that you wanted to be my daughter's boyfriend?"
James nodded and then he shook his head. After that, he nodded again and shook his head again. It took him quite a while to regain a little bit of calmness. He came to the conclusion that Old Master Shaw absolutely would not notice anything because he was unable to enter Gloria's house. Gloria also never communicated with the old man as well. Therefore, all the old man could do was make guesses in regards to his relationship with Gloria and also what kind of a person he was. That damned Angie must have been who had spoken ill of James without any restraint: n front of Old Master Shaw. Otherwise, Old Master Shaw would only watch James and Gloria from afar, and would never slap James without Gloria's permission.
"S-Sir, 1-listen to me. If you still want to beat me up, punish me, or have me killed after you’ve listened to me. I'll be at your mercy. Do you think this is alright?" James looked at Old Master Shaw with immense sincerity. He went all out. Since he would b e dead either way, he might as well take a chance to fight for himself.
"Speak!" Old Master Shaw only said one word!
"I don't know what Angie had told you, but I must let you know that I did not approach Miss Shaw on my own initiative!" James said very loud and clear.
