Chapter 452

Quentin was pleased with this outcome.

That son of a bitch James ruined his plan. All his hard work would be in vain if James did not at least

get his reputation ruined.

“Nonsense!” Thea stood up for James. “My husband isn’t like that! Why would he breed poisonous

snakes?”

“Thea, you may know him, but you won’t know what he’s actually like.”

“That’s right. How long have you been married to James? Do you actually know what he’s like as a

person?”

Some of them reprimanded Thea.

Quincy was now mostly awake. She climbed off the table and sat on a chair, then said weakly, “I know

James wouldn’t breed poisonous snakes. This was just an accident.”

James glanced at Quincy in commendation.

This woman may be domineering, but she was sensible.

Quentin became anxious.

“Don’t be fooled by him, Quincy! This is a poisonous snake, with acute poison! You need to be

detoxified with special means and medicine. How are a few silver needles going to detoxify you? Not

even my mentor would be able to accomplish that. Don't just trust that kid because you're Thea's best

friend."

James glanced at him. "Just because you haven't seen it happen doesn't mean it can't happen. It just

means you're ignorant."

Hatred flashed through Quentin's gaze as he stared at James.

He then gave the man beside him a look.

The man understood that look. He turned around and left.

Quentin continued, "Quincy, can't you see Thea and James planned this? They're just pretending!"

He looked at everyone else. "We all know James married into his wife's family. He's trash, but Thea

brought him here anyway. Why did she do that? It must've been to pretend that James is cooler than he

is!"

"The way I see it, Quay and Lorne must've been paid off by Thea to collude with James!"

The crowd suddenly had a revelation at those words.

"No, that's not it," Thea insisted.

James, however, could not be bothered explaining.

Colluding with him?

Was there a need for that?

What kind of person is he, able to imagine such a ridiculous scenario?

"Let's go, Thea."

Wasting more time on them was the last thing James wanted.

"Wanna leave?"

Quentin barred their way. "What, you've been exposed, so now you're leaving?" he said coldly.

James looked at him. "What else do you want?"

He could deduce that Quentin was the one that had bred the snake, but he had no evidence, so he

said nothing. Yet now it was backfiring on him.

"Students, James must've been breeding poisonous snakes," Quentin said loudly. "If you don't believe

me, we can go search his room! I'll apologize if we can't find anything. But if we do find something, I'm

sure I don't have to tell you the obvious, do I?"

James had a bad feeling when he heard that.

He had noticed that one of Quentin's men snuck away earlier.

If his guess was right, it was so he could plant a poisonous snake in his room.

He had been too careless, not seeing such a lowly trick beforehand.

"Fine, we'll go." Thea was sure of his innocence. She wasn't afraid.

James, on the other hand, frowned.

"What, scared?" Quentin said coldly at his expression.

Quincy, still sat on the chair, eyed James suspiciously. Did he actually breed poisonous snakes? she

thought to herself.novelbin

"What are you afraid of, James?"

James turned to look at Quincy, then shrugged.

At this point, he had nothing to say. All he could do was allow them to search his room.

As for whether they'd find snakes in there, he was not sure anymore.

"Let's go."

Everyone went back to the hotel.

Quincy was helped along by some of them.

Soon enough, they arrived at the room.
