Chapter 469

Thea curled into James’s arms and cried her heart out.

James cradled her and comforted her gently.

When Thea finally stopped crying, she asked, “Darling, the Callahans are all but destroyed now. How

do you plan to get us out of this and even more, rise up again?”

James answered, “I don’t know how but I’ll find a way soon, I promise. They’ll just have to cope with

this ordeal for now. It wouldn’t be bad for them to learn how to swallow their pride as well.”

“Hmm…”

Thea had no other choice at this point but to blindly trust in James.

James had always managed to pull through whenever he helped her through several difficult times.

Eventually, James got up, “Right, I have to go out for a while.”

“Okay,” Thea nodded.

She did not ask why.

James walked out of the room and informed Gladys and Benjamin before he left the house.

He drove to the Common Clinic.

At the same time, in the Vice Director’s office on the top floor of the Transgenerational Tower.

Quincy donned a professional suit – a peach shirt, a maroon pencil skirt, black stockings, and a pair of

red heels. Her voluminous ruby-colored waves neatly rested on her shoulders. Her milky skin and

seductive pink lips exuded a sense of corporate glamor.

A pen was toyed between her fingers, constantly spinning.

“What gives about this James guy?”

She pondered.

All along, she thought James was a useless man.

Her impression of him was based on rumors she had heard about him. When they finally met, she

found him rather unimpressive as well.

However, she witnessed his excellent medical skills during their trip to the Dragon Fountain Villa.

With only a few needles, he managed to expel the snake venom from her body and neutralized the

effect of the aphrodisiac.

Since that incident, she visited a few experienced doctors from Medical Street to inquire about his

technique.

None of the doctors thought that was possible.

They said, nobody could use just a few needles to expel snake venom that had spread to their entire

body, and the neutralization of the aphrodisiac was equally impossible.

Impossible for everyone except James it seemed.

Moreover, he was a highly-skilled fighter. She thought of how he single-handedly defeated the men

Lorne brought.

Also, James was different from other men.

She was well aware of her outstanding beauty, and her looks and allure surpassed Thea Callahan.

Men would not be able to resist being attracted to her when they saw her.

Once again, James seemed unfazed by her.

Last night, James disappeared the moment Thea came, although she was the one helping James in

the first place.

“Calm and collected, hiding all his unmatched skills. Incredibly knowledgeable in martial arts and

medicine, yet he only has eyes for Thea…”

As a woman with a keen intuition, she knew for sure that Thea’s husband was not the average joe he

claimed he was all along.

“James, you’ve successfully piqued my interest. I want to see what kind of person you truly are.”

Quincy’s lips curled into a devious smile before she quickly put all of these thoughts behind her and

began working.

James reached the clinic.

The clinic he ordered Ronn to bring May to yesterday.

“Boss.” Ronn stood up as soon as James entered, his eyes sparkling with excitement.

James waved his hand to the thirty-something, around 190cm tall, burly man.novelbin

May stood up to greet him as well, “James.”

James studied her. She was not wearing her usual Nightcrawler uniform, but a long, form-fitting dress.

She had an athletic figure, slick, black hair, and a wonderful face.

She looked maidenly and innocent. Nobody would have suspected that she was a killer.

“Hmm.” James nodded.

“Ronn, contact the boys, I have a job for you guys.”

James had to meet Jake Graham.

Blithe King cannot provide him with the help he needs. He needed more information. Without Jake’s

help, he would not be able to do anything.
