Joseph Colson didn't go in. He saw Jimmy Horne go in and returned to his car to wait for Camila Ruiz to come out.

His cold lips slightly curved, a faint cold smile appeared at the corners of his mouth.

Jimmy Horne was his true romantic rival, and they had just officially met, although they hadn't exchanged words, judging by Jimmy Horne's aura and presence, Joseph thought he had at least a fifty percent chance of winning.

Marriages in high society are mostly based on family interests.

He believed that since the Colson Family and the Ruiz Family were both in A City, the two major high societies, if he proposed to Hansen Ruiz, asking to marry Camila Ruiz, Hansen would definitely consider it.

Even if Hansen didn't agree, he had ways to marry Camila anyway.

In his mind appeared the images of Camila Ruiz, that girl was entirely different from Crystal; Crystal was very beautiful, yet very delicate and belonged to the type that evokes protective feelings. Camila was not absolutely beautiful but very charming, belonged to the cheerful, appealing type, and was independent and self-reliant, not depending on him like Crystal did.

Such a girl is more interesting to conquer, and in the process, he could make Charles Colson suffer immensely.

Indeed, he hadn't even started to act, and last night Charles Colson had found him, warning him not to drag Camila into this, which showed how much Charles valued Camila.

All the more reason for him to drag Camila into this.

For the position as the overlord of A City, and to get revenge on Charles, he must marry Camila.

As for his real rival Jimmy Horne, he was merely the heir of the Black Emperor Group. As domineering as the Black Emperor Group was, it could only dominate T City and couldn't extend to A City. Besides, if Camila was forced to marry him, the Horne Family couldn't interfere with this, since Camila belonged to the Ruiz Family, not the Horne Family.

Thinking of all this, Joseph's cold smile became even more pronounced and icy.

He looked down at the large bouquet of roses in his hand, his gaze icy. He hadn't even sent flowers to Crystal yet.

Thinking of Crystal, Joseph's heart became conflicted.

He admitted he did love Crystal, but he hadn't examined the extent of his love. Crystal was pregnant, the child was his, and logically he should be happy because he was going to be a father, but at this moment, as he was about to use Camila, the child came at a bad time!

Crystal's decisiveness made his heart ache even more.

She pleaded with him to let go of the child, and when he refused, she attempted suicide. For such a delicate person, she dared to choose suicide!

Thinking of her covered in blood, fainting in front of him, Joseph's heart twisted with pain.

At this moment, he didn't want to hide his feelings.

He hurt, deeply.

When he left the villa, Crystal hadn't woken up, and he couldn't forcefully take away Crystal's child in such a situation; it would truly cost her life.

Having been side by side with Crystal for years, his feelings for her were not just love, but also like familial affection.

He couldn't live without Crystal, nor could he let her leave him.

But he had already hurt Crystal deeply.

Hurt the delicate woman who considered him everything.

Slumping weakly against the chair, Joseph seemed quite dejected at this moment.

It's all Charles Colson's fault!

It's all the stepmother's fault!

Suddenly, Joseph's thoughts shifted again, forcibly blaming everything on Charles Colson and his mother.

Even if he caused the stepmother's demise, there was still Charles.

He had said he would make those who hurt him and his mother die badly!

The eyes that had shown a hint of tenderness now reverted back to their usual viciousness, mixed with venom and obstinate obsession.

Golden Kirin Garden, Horne Family.

The fleet of cars entered one after another, parking in the open-air parking lot, filling a considerable part of it instantly.

Two men dressed in black stepped out of one car first. After getting out, they respectfully opened the back door, from which a man and a woman stepped out.

The man was tall and mighty, indeed even at an older age, he still fit the description of tall and mighty. Wearing a straight black suit, a blue tie, with black leather shoes, his features were handsome but his expression was stern. He was none other than Jimmy Horne's father, the current master of the Blazing Flame Gate, Noah Reyes.

As for the woman, there's no need to explain. Aside from Adele Horne, no other woman could share a car with Noah Reyes.
