Charlotte and Lucian looked at each other without saying a word, "last night someone was quite rude so wanted to know what you think of it"
"Dory I'm not interested" James said bluntly and hung the phone up. Placing it down on the table. He didn't think twice about his actions towards her. Within a few minutes his phone went off with messages.
"Thomas as been held at Athens and no one is allowed to enter"
"Its said that he enraged a big shot last night"
"He is a second generation who would of had the nerve to do that to him?"
He stood up and went to Athens, seeing a crowd outside he stood behind everyone, Sameul saw James standing at the back and waved him over, "do you know what has happened?"
"Yes that's why I'm here" James gave a small smile, before calling Goerge.
"James who are you calling? I don't think you could help in this matter" Sophia said taking the opportunity to mock James.
James saw her walking over with a smug look "weren't you there when Miss Flora heard all the remarks Thomas was saying? Weren't you there when Thomas got the security guards to harrass Miss Flora's guest?"
James purposely brought up what happened lastnight to make Sophia stop being so smug.
"Wait, how do you know, James?" Sameul asked.
"Miss Flora and I met yesterday and we went to the event lastnight, sameul got bit smug or jealous" finished speaking a voice was heard through the phone.
"Mr Jefferson...." before George could speak James cut him off "m outside let the guards know I'm coming in"
James hung the phone up and walked through the crowd, ignoring everyone's remarks. As he got close to Athens entrance, two cars roared down the street coming to a stop.
First person stepped out of the car wearing a luxurious suit everyone gaped at his sight "that's Mr McDonald, Thomas's father"
"Thomas is going to be alright"
Suddenly the second person got out of the car making the comments coming to a stop seeing Mr Flora walking to the entrance with Mr McDonald.
"Kid move out of the way" Mr McDonald instructed James.
James had a blank look on his face seeing those two, walking upto him. Not moving out of their way. Mr McDonald grabbed James by his shoulder and pushed him out of the way before proceeding into Athens.
Straightening up his clothes before following them into the elevator "Kid you are out of your league, get out of here" Mr Flora spoke indifferently.
"Sir with all due respect I was invited here today by Miss Flora, and I don't know why" James spoke kindly to Mr Flora.
He smiled saying "whatever happens just spoke the truth, since my duaghter brought you here then I can't say anything else about this"
The Flora family had their own rules, treat others with kindness until the time kindness doesn't work, and listen to each other. Was pretty simple rules but it kept the family bond strong for them, since Dory invited him here then there must be a reason.
Mr Flora had no choice but to respect Dory's decision and to see what becomes from it. Thomas sat in the middle of the dining hall, tied to a chair beaten and bruised. James saw the state of him not knowing if he should be feeling bad for him or joyous knowing that he got what he deserved.
Dory's eyes widened seeing James, hurriedly walking over "so you did come after all"
"What is going on here?" Mr McDonald worriedly running to check on his son.
dory flashed a him a cold stare "your son ceased alot of issues last night, James told me to let it go. But it didn't sit right with me considering. He got James kicked out of an event even before entering the door with an inviting. Then tried again when I asked James to accompany me into the event"
Dory raised her leg kicking Thomas's chair onto the floor "not to mention trying to bribe Athens Security guards in order to harrass James futher"
Mr McDonald and Mr Flora looked at James swiftly "you done all this becuase of this brat? He looks like he doesn't have a cent to his name!" Mr McDonald yelled furiously.
James smirked, purely surprised by Flora. "Dory why are you doing this? We don't know him"
"Dad, last night when he was surrounded by the security guards they were ready to pounce, but you wouldn't believe it until you saw it" Flora explained looking at Goerge signalling him.
Goerge had cold sweat dripping from his forehead "I'm stuck between Mr Jefferson and Ms Flora what am I suspose to do?" Thinking to himself.
"Let's get to it, clearly you have something to show us, right Flora? I would like to see it too" James said curiously. Letting Goerge know it was ok at the same time.
sighing in relief he played a brief video of the moment that Flora arrived lastnight, "what is this suspose to be?" Thomas's father asked.
Mr Flora stepped forward looking closer at the clip "I understand now"
They didn't know much about fighting but they had encountered many talented fighters in their line of work.
"What? The clip shows nothing!" Mr McDonald roared.
Mr Flora smiled joyfully "in all my years, this kid is talented. With one single move those security guards would of been done for. Can see it by is slight stance change."
"What are you talking about all I see is him standing straight and placing his hands in his pockets" still trying to refute them all and seek justice for his own son.
Bang.
James slapped the table hard making everyone jump. "Calling me here for that was a waste of time, I came here to tell you to let Thomas go"
"He needs to pay for what he did, it is an injustice" Dory said.
"I'm not asking" saying in a cold tone.
His tone sent chills down their spines, they couldn't understand how that man had such an aura about him. "I told you to let him go now!" Raising his voice.
Thud.
