Female Novel
Chapter 1101
Thea trusted Thomas.
However, Maxine’s words made sense. It was worth a try.
James thought about it. His objective was to execute Mr. Gabriel, lure the Gu Sect out, and catch them
all in one fell swoop. On the contrary, by cooperating with Mr. Gabriel, he would learn more about the
Gu Sect. This was a pretty good deal as well.
“Alright, I’ll go visit the Sullivans and the Lees. But I don’t know where their residences are.”
“I’ll go as well,” Maxine said, “Grandpa once brought me there. I know the way.”
“Mhm,” James agreed. With Maxine showing the way, it would be much less cumbersome.
Unwilling to provide them an opportunity to be alone together, Thea hurriedly said, “I’ll go as well,
Darling.”
“Thea, this is serious business.”
“I know. I’m not the Thea from before. As a third-rank martial artist, I’m even stronger than Maxine,” she
said and glanced at Maxine.
Aware of what Thea was concerned about, Maxine said smilingly, “Sure, why not?”
“Let’s go then,” James said.
The three left the Emperor’s Mansion.
At the same time, in the courtyard where Mr. Gabriel was…
After hearing that James had crippled Hades, Mr. Gabriel was anxious. He sat in the courtyard for the
whole day in silence.
Madelyn was standing behind him all this while. She was silent too.
Mr. Gabriel sighed deeply. He did not expect James to be this powerful. In fact, he thought that the
three families could kill James, or at the very least capture him. Who knew that James would defeat the
Johnstons’ Patriarch that easily and scare off the Sullivans and the Lees?
“Mr. Gabriel…” Madelyn said softly.
Yaroslav Gabriel leaned on the chair and looked at the sky. Wearing an anxious expression, he said,novelbin
“Madelyn, do you think we are doomed? The Leader refused to see me. He must have abandoned me.
Now that the Johnstons’ Patriarch is crippled, the Sullivans and the Lees will surely proceed with
caution.”
Madelyn said, “There’s still hope. We just have to see if James could withstand the Johnstons’
reprisal.”
At that moment, a man walked over to them and whispered, “Mr. Gabriel, Ms. Madelyn, we just
received news that the Johnstons’ Grand Patriarch has headed over to the Cadens’ mansion. However,
he returned soon after.”
Hearing this, Yaroslav’s face paled.
The Johnstons chose to make a fuss about the incident.
“What should we do now?”
He was worried. He did not want to die, or at least did not wish to die in vain as an abandoned pawn.
“Mr. Gabriel, why don’t we join forces with James?” Madelyn suddenly said.
Upon hearing this, a shiver ran down Yaroslav’s spine, and he almost fell from his chair. He steadied
himself and glared at Madelyn, “Watch your mouth, Madelyn. You should know the consequences of
betraying the organization.”
However, Madelyn had an unconcerned look on her face. “Since we’ve been abandoned, we’ll be dead
soon anyway. What’s the point of worrying about this? Besides, we aren’t going to cooperate with
James in broad daylight. We are just going to come to a tacit agreement with him. As long as we can
survive till the Mount Thunder Conference is over, the situation will become clearer. By then, it’ll be
easier to make a choice.”
Hearing this, Yaroslav was deep in contemplation.
It was a sound idea. However, as one of the persons in charge of the organization, he knew the
consequences of betraying it.
Time passed.
After about half an hour, Yaroslav whispered, “Madelyn, I’d like you to find James in secret. But
remember not to leave any tracks behind, or else both of us are doomed.”
