Chapter 269
Back then, he had gone to Lex’s birthday banquet. However, James was not there. As such, he did not
know James was the Callahans’ son-in-law.
However, upon hearing about the House of Royals, he was now sure that James was the Black
Dragon.
“Yes.”
Gavin nodded and followed close behind.
Zavier pulled at him and whispered, “What are you doing, dad? He’s not the Black Dragon. He’s the
Callahans’ son-in-law.”
“Huh? Son-in-law? The Callahans?”
Gavin frowned. Immediately, he remembered something. His face darkened, and he exclaimed, “Hurry
and get moving! He’s the Black Dragon.”
Gavin was puzzled during the incident at Lex’s birthday banquet.
Lex was permitted to organize his birthday banquet at the House of Royals. So, how and why did such
a disaster occur?
Why did Scarlett Brooks show up? Why did the Blithe King send his men?
They were acting on the Black Dragon’s orders.
He hurriedly caught up with James.
Zavier was puzzled.
“I-Is he really the Black Dragon?”
With a doubtful look, he followed behind them.
Soon, they arrived at the House of Royals.
James pressed his palm against the palmprint recognition lock. The metal door of the villa opened, and
he walked in.
Seeing this, Zavier turned pale.
James sat on a sofa and crossed his legs. He looked at Gavin mischievously. “Gavin, do you know why
I came to visit you?”
Though Gavin’s forehead was beaded with sweat, he dare not wiped them off.
He shook his head furiously. “I-I don’t know.”
James glanced at Zavier.
“Do you, then?”
Meeting his gaze, Zavier shivered.
James exuded an extremely powerful aura. Though Zavier was a successful businessman who had
met countless people, he was fearful of James. The sensation was akin to facing off against a ferocious
tiger.
Recalling what he did at the Callahans, his heart skipped a beat.
“K-Kinda.”
Zavier, the commercial genius, was sweating profusely.
Smack!
James slammed his fist against the table.
Gavin trembled in fear and immediately knelt on the floor.
Though Zavier was equally fearful, he managed to contain the urge to kneel.
James stared coldly at Zavier and said, “You seem to be interested in my wife. Do you wish for the
Watsons to be wiped off the face of Cansington just like the Xaviers?”
“You b*stard!”
Gavin, who was kneeling on the ground, roared. He dragged the dumbfounded Zavier to the floor and
ordered, “Kneel and apologize!”
Zavier regained his sense and knelt. “G-General, I d-didn’t know. I won’t do that ever again. Please,
give me a chance.”
James lightly waved. “Alright now, get up.”
Upon hearing this, they hurriedly stood as if pardoned.
Zack, who was standing by the side, finally understood how Lex came to organize his birthday banquet
at the House of Royals.
After all, the owner of the House of Royals, the Black Dragon, was the son-in-law of the Callahans.
Fortunately, Gavin had brought him to the Callahans to admit his mistake. Otherwise, if the Black
Dragon had intended to pursue matters further, his family would be doomed.
“Zavier, I heard my mother’s treating you to a meal tonight on behalf of Thea.”
“Ah.”
Zavier nodded. Then, immediately after, he shook his head. “N-No.”
James smiled. “Don’t be nervous. Taking an interest in my wife can only mean she’s a fine woman. It’s
fortunate you only sent gifts to the Callahans instead of resorting to other means. Your act has saved
the Watsons.”
Zavier took a deep breath.
Looking back on it, he could not help but shudder.
Fortunately, he did not act rashly. Otherwise, the Watsons would have been doomed.
It was a simple matter for a general to crush a family. All he needed was to utter a single order.
“Alright now, you’re dismissed.” James lightly waved.
They swiftly left.
Gavin wiped the sweat beads off his forehead. He glanced at Zavier. “You almost doomed us all.”
“I didn’t know, dad. How would I know that the Callahans’ son-in-law was the Black Dragon?”
Gavin took a deep breath and said, “Back then, when James was driving in and out of the military
region freely, there were rumors that he had borrowed the vehicle through his connections. I nevernovelbin
expected it to be his car. I don’t understand one thing, though. Although he’s a big shot, he married into
the Callahans and feigned a good-for-nothing man.”
