Chapter 828 A Devastating Blow

Janice was choked. She really admired Eva's courage to talk about such a topic openly in front of Jim!

Jim's face was full of malice and cruelty. If Janice hadn't been there and if she hadn't become a damn married woman, he would have taken her upstairs without hesitation to prove his ability.

Noticing his displeasure, Eva quickly changed the topic, "Scum Jim, Vinton and I have an appointment with Essie and Zac to eat spicy crabs tonight. Would you like to come with Janice?"

"I... I might not be free," Janice said in a hurry. She just wanted to be alone with Jim. She didn't like to have too many people around. She had thought that Jim would refuse her, but she didn't expect that Jim would agree without hesitation. She had to change her mind. "Since Jim is going, I'll go with you."

"You don't have time, do you? It's just a friend's dinner. You don't have to force yourself," Jim said.

"It's okay. I just want to watch a TV series at eight o'clock at home. I can watch it online tomorrow." Janice shook her head.

Eva giggled, "You must be looking at the play called 'Chivalrous Tenderness' starring by my senior, Nicole."

"Yes, I'm her fan." Janice nodded slightly.

"Are you a fan of King Jim?" Eva asked jokingly.

"Why bother asking?" Janice smiled.

"I'm not. He has many advantages and disadvantages. I won't be his fan," Eva curled her lips and said on purpose.

Jim sneered, full of mockery, "It's better than someone. The shortcomings piled up higher than mountains, and the advantages could only be found by magnifying glasses."

"Who are you talking about?" Eva pretend that she did not know it. In fact, her face had already been covered with dark clouds.

"You know the answer." Jim sneered.

Eva gritted her teeth and the muscles at the corners of her mouth tightened, but soon she loosened, as if she had quickly detoxified the poison in her body.

"Whatever you say, it doesn't matter. As long as my Vinton thinks that I have many advantages, that's enough. We are not relatives or friends, and your opinions are completely ignored." She didn't know that her words had hurt Jim severely, which made him suffer a lot.

Now, what he hated most was being ignored by this heaven pepper. "Neither relative nor friend? It turns out that the Savior has such a low status in your heart. No wonder people say that the world is getting darker and darker. It's hard to be a good person. Because there are all ungrateful and forgetful patients in this world."

Hearing this, Eva was speechless. "I'm not ungrateful. I've been paying off my debt of gratitude to you."

"It proves that you have never been grateful to me from the bottom of your heart." Jim] folded his arms across his chest, as if he was a debt collectors.

"No, I didn't. I really appreciate it. You are blaming me every day. You are so mean. If I say that to you, think about it, do you want to hear it or not?" Eva rolled her eyes at him.

"I'm just telling the truth," said Jim with a faint smile.

"That is not the true!" Eva was so angry that she wanted to jump. She was not as b

childhood shadow, even if you did nothing, she would believe that you did it.

Janice put her slender fingers on his shoulder and said, "I believe in Jim. Jim is not a playboy. He has a serious mysophobia. How could he touch those women?"

Hearing this, Eva didn't say anything. Janice was her girlfriend. Since she chose to believe in scum Jim, she wouldn't hurt her.

When they were talking, Zac was silently picking up food for his wife, while Essie was eating silently.

Just as the dinner was about to come to an end, Mrs. Rose called and said that something had happened in the Chateau in Provence.

Zac and Essie rushed to the villa by the lakeside.

Mrs. Rose was extremely anxious. She heard from the manager of the Chateau that the cellar and Grape Garden were on fire, which was undoubtedly a devastating blow to the Chateau.

Zac had arranged a private plane. On the second morning, he went back to France with Mrs. Rose and Irene.

The fire in the cellar and Grape Garden was very fierce. It took the fire department two hours to put out the fire. Several workers were burned, and the workers on duty in the cellar were burned to death on the spot.

"How could this be? How could the cellar and the grape garden be on fire together all of a sudden?" Looking at the burnt vines in front of her, Mrs. Rose felt as if a knife were piercing her heart.

"I suspect that it was an arson. Someone set the fire on purpose." The manager said, "If the fire was caused by the workers on duty in the cellar by accident, it is impossible that the Grape Garden is also on fire."

The police of Provence had taken over the case. They agreed with the manager and they would try their best to hunt down the murderer.

But the wine cellar, the Grape Garden were destroyed. It meant that the Rose Manor was destroyed.

It took several years to rebuild the Grape Garden, and so did the wine cellar. They had signed an agreement with several trade companies. Now there was no wine to provide, and they needed to pay tens of millions of liquidated damages.
