This time, James didn't give Jayden any other choice. It seemed that he had zero tolerance when others crossed the line in terms of matters concerning Amelia. At this point, Jayden started regretting challenging James' boundaries with Ryan and Amelia when he had the chance.
"If I don't kneel down today, does that mean I can't leave here?"
"Yeah."
James lightly raised an eyebrow, exerting his power to the fullest. Jayden looked up at James, feeling a bit of hatred inside. But compared to being able to safely leave here, kneeling down didn't seem like much.
He glanced at Stella and Andrew and gritted his teeth, asking, "Can they leave first?"
James looked at the two of them, and Stella and Andrew quickly left the director’s office.
Next, Jayden knelt in front of James, enduring the shame and saying, "I'm sorry."
After staring at him for a while, James slightly bent over, squatting in front of Jayden, coldly staring into his eyes.
"Mr. Sherwood, remember, don't say things you shouldn't say, or else you'll pay the price."
He left these words behind, stood up, took his phone, and left quickly.
Jayden turned his head, staring at that cold and proud figure, clenching his teeth tightly.
Just before the door closed, James stopped and turned around, raising his chin like a ruler with the power of life and death.
"Don't forget to apologize to my brother—"
