Chapter 1427 Ulterior motives
James glanced at Frank and said coolly, “His sister sent a gift as a thanks. Shouldn’t I invite him to dinner?”
Being older, Frank didn’t understand the hidden meaning behind James’ words, but he knew James was angry. “I’ll go get him right away”
When Jonny heard that James wanted to treat him to a meal, his deep pupils gradually widened. “What does he mean?”
Nick shook his head. “I don’t know. The old man who came only said that James wanted to thank you for your sister’s gift, so he’s inviting you to dinner.”
James didn’t care about these formalities. He must have ulterior motives.
Nick cautioned, “Jonny, why don’t you decline this dinner?”
Jonny scoffed, “Decline? Is he going to eat me or something?!
Nick replied, “Tm afraid he might poison your food.”
Jonny kicked Nick away, got up, and went upstairs to shower and change clothes.
He wanted to see what kind of game James was playing
It was Jonny’s first time to visit their castle, and he was slightly surprised by the design inside
Frank followed behind and introduced, “Jonny, everything you see here was designed by Amelia.”
After saying that, Frank intentionally emphasized, “It’s her special wedding gift to James.”
Wedding gift…
Jonny’s thin lips pressed into a straight line “It’s none of my business.
Frank smiled and said, “I’m just introducing it to you.”
Jonny ignored him and walked into the castle on his own.
As soon as he entered the front door, he saw their wedding photos hanging everywhere on the walls.
In each photo, the two of them gazed at each other with happy smiles on their faces.
After looking around, Jonny’s gaze fell on James, who was standing by the spiral staircase.
The man in the white shirt tilted his head slightly to look at him, and there was a hint of ambiguity in his eyes
Just as Jonny was about to ask why he was invited for dinner, Amelia rushed over and hugged James from behind.
“Honey, Neil sent me another difficult architectural problem. I can’t figure out the formula. Help me, please.”
Amalia, who usually had a cold face in front of him, was like a little girl, clinging to her husband and acting spoiled.
Her husband…
Jonny seemed to realize something and suppressed the growing affection in his heart. He took a step forward.
