Chapter 885 Who Do You Think You Are?
She did not continue with the topic and decided to bring up Jolene. ’I hear that Jolene did
not follow Rowena in the end."
"Yeah." James nodded and then smiled. "I knew you would ask about this."
"I was just curious about what you were thinking. Otherwise, I'd worry." Jenny thought that
Jolene could not compare to James. However, if James accidentally liked Jolene back, she
could do nothing about it.
She was worried that something like that would happen, which was why she was so
anxious to ask him the question.
James ate and looked out the window as if considering his answer. Jenny grew anxious.

wouldn't be the one at a disadvantage, anyway. Why would I refuse?"
"You're not someone who has to cut back on a nanny’s fees," Jenny said. This excuse was
a stretch. It was unbelievable.
"Well, I just thought it would be too easy to just let her go like that. Making her stay is a
sort of punishment for her."
Jenny looked at him, her expression grim.
James retracted his gaze and saw her expression. He was a little surprised. "What's with
that expression? Do you think I like her?" James laughed as he said that. "Don't you worry.
I'd never fall in love with such a toxic woman," he promised.
He had already laid it out in such a way that Jenny had no reason to continue talking about
it. They were close, but she couldn't interfere with his matters too much.
But if James one day truly fell in love with Jolene, Jenny would have to seriously consider if
she could meet Jolene without wanting to punch her face.
They left after the meal. On the way home, Jenny received a call from Graham. He was
just asking about her day, as usual. Jenny told him she was fine, and she learned that he
had a lead. Although Jenny thought it wasn't enough to find even a single person, she kept
quiet.
She knew that it was good for Graham. With a goal in mind, he seemed more energetic.
On the other side of the city, James went back to Windsor Villa.
Jolene was waiting for him on the sofa. When she saw him, she hurried over. "Why are you
back so late? The food is cold. I'm going to warm it up now."

Jolene was stunned. Then, she looked upset. "Could you give me a heads up if you plan to
eat out? I..."
"Do you honestly want me to tell you everything about my schedule, Jolene? Who do you
think you are?" James sneered, his tone mocking. He sat on the sofa. "A maid should act
like a maid. I'll eat out if I want to eat out. You don't have to manage me."
"I'm not trying to manage you." Jolene had no idea what had come over him. He was
perfectly fine these past two days. Yet, he had gone back to how he was previously.
"Come here." James beckoned, wanting her to sit next to him.
Her heartbeat quickened. She sat nervously next to him. "What's up?"
James said nothing, merely grazing his hand over her face, curling a strand of her hair
between his fingers. "Jenny thinks that I'm keeping you here because I like you. Isn't that
hilarious?"
