Awakening the War God

Chapter 12 James

Chapter 12 James

All the guests present were dumbfounded.

Gabriel was so overwhelming.

He took a one-billion-dollar contract as a birthday gift.

Sophia excitedly took the portfolio and laughed.

After opening it and taking out the contract, Sophia widened her eyes.

There was a seal of Apex Bank at Party A's mark.

And there was the autograph of Leon, the minister of the Head Office of Silverwood.

"Mr. Gabriel, your valuable birthday present puts me at a loss. Please come in. You are the most distinguished guest of the Foster family!"

The contract directly changed Sophia's attitude.

She once planned to kick Gabriel out, but now gave Gabriel a courteous reception.

The contract of two five-star hotels was worth one billion.

If it was reached, the Foster family would rise high.

Other guests did not expect the change.

And they began to compliment Gabriel.

After all, Gabriel represented the Apex Bank.

For many businessmen, banks mastered their lifeline.

Seeing Sophia's change, other Fosters also made a smile at Gabriel.

Only Martin, who looked down on Gabriel, quietly left from the crowd.

He took out his cell phone and called James.

"Is it successful?"

Ava dared not speak but held Gabriel's hand.

Gabriel went too much.

He even faked a one-billion-dollar contract.

Strictly, it was a crime.

It was crazy.

But... his action was effective.

Obviously, Sophia was tempted.

She totally changed her attitude towards Gabriel.

Assuming all went well, Ava may get rid of Fatty Davis' engagement today.

However, Ava was a little worried.

The truth would be out and the fake contract will be seen through sooner or later.

At that time, Sophia would definitely want to kill Gabriel.

And the Davis family would not let Gabriel go.

Gabriel would be caught by the Davis family and sent to prison on the accusation of faking a contract.

Thinking about it, Ava held Gabriel tightly.

"Gabriel, you go too far this time!"

Mia aside was in a complicated mood.

Today's farce had been out of control.

Gabriel told a whopping lie.

It would definitely raise the anger of the Foster family and the Davis family.

A designated driver couldn't bear their temper.

He would be burned to ashes by the flames of anger.

"Sophia, it's nothing. I want you to bless me and Ava. We really love each other, and you don't want Ava to marry a man she dislikes, right?"

Gabriel didn't leave. He wanted to get Sophia's answer in front of the public.

Gabriel was not a fool. He couldn't endure Sophia refused him after accepting the contract.

Gabriel wondered if the billion-dollar contract could win Ava's freedom.

"Well..." Sophia was really embarrassed.

The contract sent by Gabriel was so tempting.

If the Davis family hadn't been involved, she would not hesitate to marry Ava to Gabriel.

However!

It was hard to explain to the Davis family.

The Davis family had deep roots and a huge influence in Silverwood.

It was a powerful force in both economic and political sectors.

Even if Gabriel was the son of Mr. Edwards, Apex Bank's strength focused on Sapphire Peaks.

Silverwood was beyond its reach.

If Sophia offended the Davis family, the Davis family had the capacity to collapse the Foster family.

Even the one-billion-dollar contract couldn't help.

Gabriel saw Sophia's hesitation and understood her worry. He said coldly, "Davis family is just a local villain, while Apex Bank has a national-wide strength. I am Ava's man and have the responsibility to protect the Foster family. The Davis couldn't threaten your family."

Gabriel bragged too much.

Even the Silverwood businessmen couldn't stand it.

It was known that a strong force was hard to fight against a local villain.

The Davis family had an intertwined influence in Silverwood and was rooted in this land.

Even if Gabriel really had Apex Bank as his backing, he couldn't compete with the Davis family on the territory of Silverwood.

The public thought so but dared not to speak.

They would be more likely to be quiet spectators.

After all, no one could afford to offend any side.

"If so..."

Gabriel's words excited Sophia.

She held the valuable contract and looked at the promising son-in-law.

It seemed that Sophia didn't have to attach to the Davis family.

After thinking about it, Sophia turned her eyes and smiled, "I haven't asked Ava's opinion about the previous engagement with the Davis family. In these days, I feel sorry for Ava for it."

"Well, it's a new era. Ava has the right to decide on her own marriage."

"I don't care whether it's Mr. Davis or Mr. Gabriel. Anyone who wins Ava's heart would be my son-in- law."

Ava excitedly held her fist.

Her eyes blinked, and she couldn't believe her ears.

It worked. Gabriel succeeded.

Sophia changed her words. That was to say, Ava didn't have to marry the Fatty James.

The guests whispered.

In fact, Sophia's words showed her approval of Gabriel.

But, to be sure, things were not over.

It would change after the Davis family came.

"Mr. Gabriel, could you please come in now?"

Sophia held the contract and invited Gabriel again.

In her view, only the interests in hand were reliable.

The Davis family promised a business cooperation.

But the scale and the starting point were unknown.

The initiative was in the Davis family's hands.

But the contract was different.

It could take effect as long as the Foster family signed.

In her opinion, Gabriel was a more practical son-in-law.

As for the Davis family, she'd talk about it later.

"Mrs. Foster, after you."

As Ava's boyfriend, Gabriel showed a modest attitude as a young and gave Sophia respect.

It made Sophia comfortable.

Ava was the happiest.

She held Gabriel's arm tightly and didn't relax.

"Mr. Davis presents a million-dollar exquisite jade to celebrate your birthday!"

A voice sounded at the gate.

All eyes fell on the door again.

A fat man with a piece of glasses swaggered into the hall.

He showed an imposing bearing.

Behind him, there were four bodyguards in black suits and a serious man with his hands behind his back.

"It must be Fatty Davis!"

Gabriel's eyes narrowed. He took a glance at James and then stared at the serious man.

The man showed a terrible aura.

It seemed that the man had extraordinary power.

Gabriel remembered the bald's words, James had a strong follower, Ghost Face, who was listed in the Sky List.

Was it the serious man?

"Sophie, I'm late, but luckily it isn't over, or you'll be cheated by a liar."

James walked up with mirth.

Suddenly, he stopped smiling and glared at Gabriel.

Gabriel's expression also cooled down.

He looked at James, who had a round face, and narrow eyes in a pair of square glasses.

His stomach looked like a shaking ball.

He seemed annoyed.

"Damn Fatty Davis!"

Ava held her fist and gnashed her teeth.

At the thought of drugging and kidnapping, Ava couldn't wait to step forward and stomp Fatty Davis with her high heels.

Sophia felt a headache when she saw James.

She forced a smile and said politely, "Mr. Davis is here. Come on, please go inside."

"Don't hurry," James smiled and stared at Gabriel, "Isn't it a designated driver who lives in the urban reconstruction building? When did you become Mr. Edwards's son?"

"By the way, I heard that there is no minister called Edwards in all departments of Apex Bank headquarters."

"I'd like to know who Mr. Edwards is."
