Female Novel
Chapter 422
Seeing that Thea was safe, Gladys rushed toward her, crying tears of joy. “Thea, you’re fine. Thank
goodness. I was just watching the news. They said Maximus and the others had an illegal gathering at
Osmanthus villa. I thought you…”
“Mom, I’m alright. James reported the incident to the military. It’s all thanks to him that we’re fine.”
“By the way, where’s Dave? Where’s your brother?”
“Where’s my husband? Did anything happen to him?”
Seeing that David was not there with them, Alyssa burst into tears. “David, how could you leave us just
like that? Our child isn’t even born yet…”
“Mom, he’s alright. He was injured and sent to the hospital. Let’s visit him.”
Hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Then, they headed straight to the hospital.
As David was sent to the hospital early, his operation was already over.
He lay on the bed in the special ward and looked at the ceiling, daydreaming.
Today’s incident had been too shocking.
He thought it was the end for him. He was prepared to die. However, James appeared at the last
moment and saved his life.
He did not expect James to be the Black Dragon.
If he was the Black Dragon, who was the James of Majestic Corporation?
His head was spinning.
However, James finished off hundreds of men with ease while carrying him in his arms. In the end,
when the Blithe King showed himself, James was even fraternizing with him.
Who was he if not the Black Dragon?
He could not figure it out. Since James was so powerful and influential, why would he marry into the
Callahans? Why was he willing to be ordered around?
He reminisced everything that had happened in the household.
The mysterious Mr. Caden seemed to be behind the scenes helping them out.
Now that he thought about it, there was never a mysterious Mr. Caden in the first place. It was James
all along. It was the son-in-law of the Callahans and his brother-in-law.
David was deep in thought.
Soon, the door was pushed open. A few people walked in.
It was the Callahans who had hurried over.
“David, how are you doing?” Upon entering the ward, Alyssa immediately rushed toward him. Seeing
he was wrapped in bandages all over his body, she burst into tears.
David slowly moved his head. Seeing James at the back, he felt shivers down his spine.
He had thought that James was useless, and he had treated him badly.
‘Will he exact revenge on me?’
David could not help but worry.
Thea walked over and asked, concerned, “Is everything alright?”
“I-I’m fine…” David was a little nervous.
James said, “His injuries are rather serious. He needs rest. Let’s not bother him any further. The
hospital has nurses to take care of him.”
“Yes, he’s right.” David immediately said, “Dad, mom, grandpa, Alyssa, and Thea… Go home. I won’t
die. I’ll be back home after some rest.”
Seeing that he was conscious, the Callahans were at ease.
They returned home.
At the Callahan residence…
In Thea’s room…
Thea sat on the bed and said apologetically in a low voice, “I’m sorry, honey. I’ve troubled you.”
James lightly waved. “It’s not about the trouble. Do you know why I’m mad at you?”
Thea shook her head.
“I’m mad because you didn’t tell me anything even though I’m your husband. Why did you have to beg
someone else for help? Was that really necessary?”
Thea hung her head and remained silent.
She had wanted to confide in James.novelbin
However, knowing that James was without power and money, she chose not to.
“I-I won’t make the same mistake in the future,” She said in a low voice. “If anything happens, you’ll be
the first to know.”
“That’s more like it,” James said. “We’re husband and wife. Though I’m your husband, you didn’t utter a
single word of the situation to me. Instead, you ran off to a stranger.”
Thea was like a child being lectured. She kept nodding her head.
James patted her back and consoled her. “Alright, now. It’s all in the past. It’s getting late. We should
get some sleep after showering.”
“Honey!” Thea suddenly lifted her head.
“Hmm?”
James looked at her.
Before Thea could even say anything, she felt her cheeks redden.
“Let's shower together.”
