Charles hesitated before lying to his best friend "I have a meeting."
"Oh really, which one, I didn't know about any meeting that was going to be held."
"James I will tell you later, please let me go."
As Charles tried to pass him, James stopped him placing a hand on his chest and an angry look in his eyes "I will just ask one question, are you going to meet Rachel."
Charles lowered his head, guilty of what was said. James angrily pushed him against the wall and punched his face. Charles stood there without reacting and then looked into his eyes "Can I go now."
James held him by his collar angrily "Did you ever love Jamie. The moment she died you are going out with someone else, who might be the one to kill her. "

Charles pushed him away with both his hands and said with an even louder tone to prove that he was not wrong "It's none of your business."
James clenched his teeth "Are you out of your mind."
"You are out of your mind, I can't keep weeping over a dead person, I have to move on and live my life happily and it is my right to do that."
"Charles if you are going out with her then we are no more friends."
Charles stood there without saying a word, seeing him like this James said at a high tone with tears in his eyes "Charles how can you be so cold hearted, her best friend is not yet over her death, she even postponed her wedding and I who had been his friend recently can't accept it but you are talking about getting over it and living life."
Charles walked past him and out of the door, he quickly walked to his car to avoid James seeing tears in his eyes but he could not tell him the truth because they were being overheard. James fell to the floor crying he said to himself "You are ready to abandon your friend for that stingy woman, what has gotten into you, you can't be my friend." he then left to go back home.
Rachel smiled overheating their conversation, she thought that she was successful in seducing him but she was walking right into Jamie's trap. Soon she received a call from Charles "Rachel would you like to go for shopping."
"Why not."
He had already planned for the dinner and brought the a bottle of champagne with could intoxicate her in a few drinks. He took her out for shopping to show her that he liked her and make her believe in him but James had already helped him a lot by coming over so his work was reduced to half. The corners of his mouth twitched into a beautiful smile and he went to pick up Rachel for shopping.
