Chapter 525 Try It Out
When Neil arrived at Sancastle and saw the fort-like villa in front of him, the calm expression on his face collapsed instantly.
He lowered his head and glanced at his slippers, which were supposed to express his indifference for James.
Looking at the villa again, he suddenly felt that the decision he made was rather hasty.
The door to the villa was opened. Neil gulped and walked inside.
Seeing that the interior of the villa was even more resplendent than the outside, Neil regretted it even more.
“Ms. Garcia, do you know where I stayed the day you were taken away by Mr. Evans?” he asked.
While browsing through the drawings, Amelia asked, “Where?”
Neil flashed a clean, stiff smile. “I stayed under a flyover with a bunch of homeless people.”
Amelia’s finger, which was tracing the drawings, paused for a moment. Apologetically, she murmured, “I’m sorry, Mr. Sherwood. I didn’t know…”
Neil waved his hands, showing that it was fine. “Even though your living conditions are better than mine, you lost a million

As long as she was worse off than him, he wouldn’t feel that things were so unfair, but…
“If you marry Mr. Evans, it seems that one million is no big deal,” he murmured.

Neil reacted belatedly. Suddenly, everything seemed very unfair. His face was twisted.
D*mn it. They had both gone to work abroad, but she had found herself a rich guy. He, on the other hand, had none. Why was there such a huge difference?
Amelia glanced at Neil, who had all kinds of expressions on, and handed the roll of blueprint to him.
“Mr. Sherwood, you should go and get to work. If the clients aren’t satisfied, you can write down their requests, and I will make the changes later,” Amelia said.
Neil retracted his ferocious expression. He took the blueprint, turned around, and walked out of the study angrily.
As soon as he left, he saw the man leaning against the handle of the spiral staircase with his arms crossed, jutting his chin toward him.
“Mr. Sherwood, come to my study. Let’s have a chat.”
“How about no. What do we have to talk about?”

Neil backed away in fright, but two bodyguards suddenly appeared behind him, one in front of the other, and carried him. into the study.
James walked in slowly with laidback steps and ordered the door to be closed. His subordinates shut it with a bang.
Immediately afterward, Neil’s voice could be heard from inside as he kept trying to plead his case.
“Mr. Evans, even if you want to deal with me, at least find a better excuse. It’s not against the law for me to wear slippers!”
After Amelia finished working on the design, she relaxed and sat in the study quietly, waiting for Neil’s feedback.
In the evening, Neil’s message came in. “The people from the National Space Administration are very satisfied with the sketch. No changes are needed. The production work such as the follow-up rendering can be done by the client.”
Amelia had just typed “OK”. Before she could even send it, she received another text. “Buy me a pair of slippers as compensation.”
Amelia frowned and deleted what she had written, sending three question marks instead.
Neil didn’t explain. He only replied, “They have to be made of gold.”

Amelia was stunned. Was it even possible to wear gold slippers?
She thought for a long time before sending him a concerned emoticon.
After waiting for a long time, he didn’t respond, so she put down her phone and was about to go to take a shower to relax.
As soon as she got up from the chair, she was picked up into James’ arms. While in his embrace, he bent down and kissed her.
With her lips touching his, Amelia heard him say, “There’s an outdoor swimming pool in the backyard, Amelia. Let’s go try it out.”
