Chapter 20 Chapter20

The most inconceivable thing was the irregular battle between him and the boxing champion Michele. The weight difference was fifty kilograms. Jimmy was like dealing with a heavy doll. He easily knocked it down to the ground within one minute of the competition.

In the past half month, he had made progress in all aspects.

The capital was ready. The registration of the name of the school was completed, and the cooperation with George was confirmed. The capital was successfully injected into the project. And the most important problem was the site.

Within a week, Laura helped Jimmy get the ownership of the land, and then began to demolish and rebuild it.

Jimmy did it as fast as he could imagine.

He was on his way back to the hotel.

At ten o'clock in the evening, he just ended the call with Laura.

On the street, the lights were dim and there was no car passing by for a long time.

Jimmy grabbed the steering wheel with both hands and slowed down the car.

He even had time to light a cigarette. When the light and darkness were uncertain, his face looked more and more calm.

Laura said that Paul was going to make a move and asked Jimmy to create an opportunity for him.

He knew how to conduct the counter reconnaissance, so he knew what to do. Jimmy had been driving on this remote road for six days in a row.

Intuitively, Paul was coming.

Sure enough, when the car was about to enter another intersection, a big off-road vehicle suddenly appeared in front of him and blocked his car.

At the same time, a motorcycle whizzed over from behind.

Gun, large bore, dead eyes in general, and firmly aimed at the Jimmy head that had just stopped.

Bang, the voice was also extraordinarily strident.

However, at a close distance, the bullets could not pass through the window at all, and they even did not have the ability to crack the window.

The bulletproof glass was absolutely tailor-made.

It was too late when the gunner realized it.

Front, back.

At least more than 10 private cars appeared like ghosts, blocking him and the big off-road vehicle in front of him. Countless people in suits with familiar tattoos on their arms walked out of the car, led by a very eye-catching woman, Laura.

It never occurred to Paul that his well prepared assassination would end up like this.

He was quick to react, but no matter how fast he reacted, it was after he got the news.

When she went out to ask for more details, the villa was surrounded by police cars.

He finally realized that this was a trap, a trap that he would jump into by himself.

This day was one of the few reshuffling days in the history of V gang.

After Paul was arrested on suspicion of assassination of Jimmy, at least a dozen of his confidants and subordinates were involved.

The V group led by Paul and the others had completely become a thing of the past.

Jimmy had already guessed the result, but he couldn't help but admire Laura for her courage and determination.

In just two days, the V group had become impregnable from a mess of sand. The next leader, of course, was Laura.

Jimmy didn't think too much about it. He just did a small thing.

It was so easy to kill an enemy and make a friend.

Everything seemed to be on the right track and carried out in an orderly way.

Jimmy seemed to have changed into another person.

Amy, the Secretary, knew this best.

She had personally seen her young boss turn from a well behaved business man to a completely strange person to her.

He hung out with that woman called Laura every day and went to all kinds of wine parties. It was so strange for a man to hang out with a woman.

Wasn't he going to get married

But as a subordinate, she couldn't care about her boss's private life. Especially when he dealt with his work in an orderly way.

Jimmy was still with Laura.

The two strolled around the school under construction near the Tokyo street.

The man was in a suit, and the woman's temperament was not bad.

They looked like a couple.

The buildings were completely copied according to American schools.

The V group took over the project completely, and Amy sent professional staff to supervise it. In fact, Jimmy didn't need to worry about it at all.

All he needed to do was to be a leader.

Communication, relationship, and signature.

Laura kept some distance from Jimmy, but she couldn't hide her charm in her eyes. "Honey, is the project progress not disappointing you?"

She was very proud, like a little girl waiting for praise.

If Jimmy hadn't seen how she had killed all the people around Paul, he would have been easily attracted by her appearance.

Women could change a lot.Always.

Sometimes she was as cold as ice, and sometimes she was as gentle as water, making people unable to tell which was the real her.

It was easy to immerse in the complex temperament and charm.

Jimmy held back his excitement and walked to the building under construction.

The phone in his pocket vibrated. It was his son, little Beck, who sent him FaceTime.

Yes, he had a son, Beck. Jimmy and Amanda's son.

Jimmy avoided Laura and answered the phone, "hello,my son."

As usual, the first sentence of the child was always that I missed you and then asked when he could go back.

Jimmy didn't know how to respond.

Little Beck couldn't help but feel disappointed. "Dad is lying..."

Jimmy didn't know what to do. "Dad is really busy!"

"Who is the aunt next to you?"

Little Beck suddenly said something that Jimmy couldn't understand.

Auntie?

Jimmy immediately smelled the familiar fragrance from Laura and hung up the video.

"Your son is so cute!"

Laura, who came to Jimmy's side, praised her and then acted as if nothing had happened.

Jimmy frowned slightly and raised his hand. "I need to talk to him at the Dixon Boxing Gym. We can have dinner together tomorrow."

Laura felt that Jimmy seemed to have changed a lot after she praised her son.

Although she said nothing, she felt very uncomfortable.

Jimmy was on guard against her. In other words, Jimmy didn't want her to meet and interact with his family in any form.

She knew clearly that it was impossible for him to like her. It was just a play.

Although she had realized that, Laura still felt hard to accept it.

In her growing up life, only she was not interested in men, and she did not allow men not to be interested in her.

Jimmy turned around and was about to leave. Laura stopped her and said, "honey, this project is the first one I took after I removed Paul from the V group. I hope you can understand the project budget. Someone was urging me at the meeting a few days ago."

Jimmy said casually, "I'm sorry. I ignored it. Six million dollars, right? I'll arrange the accountant to transfer the money to the account of your gang V tomorrow."

Laura added, "the fund for the second stage is ten million dollars, and the cost of the project is higher than I expected. This is an accident, and I hope you can understand."

Jimmy looked back at her and said, "there are only six million on the contract."

Laura replied in a relaxed tone, "it depends on my mood. You make me unhappy now."

She continued, "I have to see the money tomorrow, or I can't urge the workers to continue working."

Jimmy asked her to light a cigarette.

This woman didn't seem to do such a thing because of millions of dollars.

The only explanation was that he had offended her.

This project was very important to Jimmy. All his arrangements were based on the construction period. If Laura got into trouble at this point, it would be an invisible loss.

Seeing that she was about to leave, Jimmy grabbed her arm and said, "wait a minute."

Laura laughed unscrupulously, "honey, what else do you want to say?"

Jimmy looked at her for a while and said, "you are really a trouble."

Laura didn't take it seriously. She put her lips close to Jimmy's face and took a slight breath. "It all depends on you. If you want me to do something, you can kick me whenever you want. It's not that cheap, honey. Do you agree with me?"

Jimmy held her face with both hands and said, "you know that millions of dollars are not worth mentioning for this project, but I hope there is a limit to my willfulness. I'll give you four million dollars this time, and I hope it won't happen again."

Laura's face darkened. "Who do you think I am?"

Jimmy hooked her chin and said, "you bought her with three hundred dollars. What do you think?"

Laura's chest heaved slightly and suddenly lifted her knees to hit Jimmy's crotch.

On their way, Jimmy reached out his hand and stopped them.

"Our relationship is very simple. Don't make it too complicated. Besides, I just don't want to delay the project for three or two days. Without V group, I can also find someone else to take over."

"Then you can have a try and I'll see who dares to pick you up."

Jimmy didn't argue anymore. He just needed to show his stand. There was no need to ruin their relationship. At the same time, there should be a limit to let Laura know everything.

Some things should not be mixed up at all.

------------

Los Angeles.

What Jimmy had done in Dubai was first reported to Losangeles.

It was strange that Jimmy had been involved since a few years ago. Until now, the name Jimmy was almost known to all.

The praises varied, but the good ones were absolutely more than the bad ones.

He was one of the few people who fought alone in Dubai.

This kind of halo was more exciting than winning a gold medal.

The name "Jimmy" was highly praised. It would be unreasonable if an American belittled it.

As Jimmy became more and more famous.

Although he was in Dubai, every move of him was within the sight of the American.

In a foreign school, he had a close relationship with a woman who was not his fiancee, and his previous career

Under the spotlight, all the advantages and disadvantages of Jimmy were revealed.

She was surprised that such a person had engaged in public relations.

Many people thought that someone was deliberately discrediting them, but as some of the parties personally confirmed it, more and more people believed it.

But it was just a small stain in Jimmy's resume. More and more people paid attention to him because of his private behaviors or work.

At Fiona's house.

Brian was sitting in the living room and watching the news. It was about the official recruitment of the physical education school in Dubai.

Fiona was also there, with mixed feelings.

As a mother, of course she was proud of her son's achievements.

But she felt something was wrong.

Everything went so smoothly.

Brian sighed slightly.

She was one of the few people who knew Jimmy best. As the matter got closer and closer, Brian felt the same way as the burden on him.

She had never looked down upon her brother, but she still ignored his means and boldness in doing something.

In the V group, old George, Dixon

He solved all these big troubles one by one and became friends with them. Until now, his school had not been opened and attracted much attention.

The business field had never been black or white. Fiona had an intuition that he was walking in the gray area now.

It had something to do with her.

She sighed slowly and felt melancholy.

She brought Jimmy an honor that ordinary people would never be able to reach in their whole lives, but at the same time, she ruined his normal life.

If he hadn't come to Dubai, he would have been married in Losangeles.

But now, she couldn't see through what he was thinking and what he was going to do.

Fiona asked seemingly unintentionally, "Mr. Brian, when will Jimmy come back?"

Brian was in a daze for a moment and said, "Madam, it's almost done. I'm looking for someone to help him in Dubai. I'm sure he'll come back after he finishes all the handover."

"That's good... I met Amanda's parents a few days ago and talked about his relationship with Amanda..."

Brian interrupted, "Madam, don't worry. It's impossible for Jimmy to get married now."

"No. I just don't think it's appropriate to keep Amanda waiting. I want them to get married first. Besides, he's thirty years old now, so it's a good time to think about it..."

Brian didn't want to say anything more. More precisely, he didn't know how to face her.

"I'm going to pick up Beck from school."

If he didn't have everything, he would lose everything. That was the two choices Jimmy had to make.

……

Laura had been in a mess recently because of a man called Jimmy.

There was no doubt that he was an excellent man. However, the more she thought about it, the harder it was for Laura to let it go.

Her original purpose was to take advantage of him and gradually became to conquer him. Now, she was even racking her brains to get along with Jimmy.

She couldn't do anything to him because he didn't love her at all.

Conquering? She had a man's desire to conquer women. She wanted Jimmy, who had never taken her seriously, to crawl under her dress.

In the bar.

After drinking half a bottle of whiskey, Laura raised her head with one hand and dialed Jimmy's number.

This was the first time she had contacted Jimmy since they had a dispute on the construction site that day.

"I'm drunk. Come and pick me up."

Jimmy agreed without hesitation and drove to the bar within ten minutes.

Laura's face turned red and her thin red lips pursed into an enchanting smile. She leaned against Jimmy and said, "honey, I thought you were angry with me."

Jimmy wrapped his arms around her waist and put her into the passenger seat. He helped tie the seat belt and asked, "shall we go home or to the hotel?"

Laura pretended to think about it and said, "go to the hotel where you live."

Jimmy shook his head and refused, "I think we can change another one."

The whole floor of the hotel he was staying in was rented out. All of them were subordinates from the United States. It was very inconvenient for him to take Laura there.

Laura asked, "are you afraid that others will know our relationship?"

Jimmy didn't answer, but helped her to tuck her hair behind her forehead.

Laura was a smart woman. She was so smart that she could know what he meant without his reply.

"By the way, you have a fiancee."

"It's good that you know it."

Laura rolled her eyes and asked, "who is she? Is she more beautiful than me?"

"No."

"Richer than me?"

Jimmy interrupted her incoherent words, "she's not as good as you. But I love her."

"You don't deserve to be loved."

"So you have a crush on someone like me. Is there something wrong with your eyes?"

Instead of getting angry, Laura smiled and put her hand on Jimmy's belt. With a flick of her thumb, the belt buckle was easily unbuttoned by her. "Does your fiancee know that you have fun every day in Dubai?"

Jimmy removed her wrist and said, "she won't know."

"Why are you so confident?"

Laura didn't give up and reached out her hand again.

Jimmy stopped the car at the roadside and asked, "do you want to be here?"

"I'm looking at you. It's much more interesting than a hotel."

Jimmy looked at her silently for a while. When he was about to unfasten the seat belt, his phone rang.

Amanda's.

He didn't answer the phone.

The ringtone was so sweet that it echoed in the car.

Jimmy turned off his phone and drove Laura home.

When they arrived at the destination, he pulled the woman out of the car. While Laura was cursing her, he drove away.

When they arrived at a quiet place, Jimmy unlocked his phone and called back.

After he came to Dubai, he called Amanda every day, but now he couldn't call her even once a week.

Being busy was not an excuse.

He couldn't face Amanda, who had been waiting for him to get married.

Jimmy answered the phone in a relaxed voice.

Amanda was particularly slow in emotional reaction.

She had heard a lot of rumors about Jimmy's dissolute life in China recently. She didn't believe it and even didn't take it seriously.

If you choose to be with Jimmy, you are doomed not to be an ordinary couple.

In the spotlight, everything about him would be magnified.

"The temperature difference between day and night is very large. Take care of yourself."

Amanda took a look at the time. It should be a node near midnight in Dubai.

Jimmy asked in surprise, "what's wrong with you today? Why do you care about me?"

Amanda's voice could be heard through the phone, "I'm on holiday today. By the way, let me tell you a piece of bad news. I'm promoted."

"I was transferred to the provincial department."

"Yes, I've been preparing the materials. I just worked yesterday. I'm also in charge of the criminal case."

Jimmy breathed a sigh of relief and said, "that's a good thing. I don't have to worry about you handling the case in person."
