Chapter 638

James knew about Cynthia’s disease.

Strictly speaking, it was not a disease but a special physique.

She had a pure yin body type.

She had too much yin energy and insufficient yang energy, resulting in an imbalance of yin and yang in

the body.

Cynthia had been taking medicine that supplemented her yang energy to maintain the balance of her

body. However, with increasing age, her body’s structure started to mature, and the body would release

more yin energy. Therefore, when the balance within the body had been completely tipped off, it would

be her due date.

Her condition was difficult to treat.

She would have to constantly take medicine to prolong her life.

It was hard for even James to completely cure her.

“Cynthia, your disease is not going to be easy to cure. I’ll prescribe a formula for you first. Bring it back

home and take medicine accordingly to recuperate your body. It should prolong your life for another ten

years. I’ll need to study your disease for a while and see if there is a method to completely cure you.”

Cynthia pouted.

She did not come to see James for her disease.

What was more important was that James was divorced. She was afraid that James would feel

disheartened. Thus, she specifically came to accompany him to see if there was a chance for her to

capture James’ heart.

“Dad, you go back first. I’ll go shopping with James.” Cynthia waved her hands at Zane.

“Cynthia, do you have money? I’ll transfer some to you. It costs money to go out shopping. Don’t let Mr.

Caden pay for everything. How about I transfer one billion to you first?”

“Hurry and leave. You nag too much and are so annoying. Everything you say is about money,” Cynthia

said dissatisfiedly.

Zane smiled awkwardly.

Then, he got in the car and left.

Cynthia held onto James’ arms and said smilingly, “James, where do you want to go and have fun?”

James gently pushed Cynthia’s hands away and said, “We’re not acquainted, so don’t act

inappropriately intimate with me. I don’t have anywhere I want to go. Give me your phone number, and

I’ll send you the formula. I have other things to do and don’t have time to accompany you.”

“Don’t be so cold, James,” Cynthia pouted and said.

“No, I really have something to do.”novelbin

“Fine.”

Cynthia was left with no choice and simply gave out her number.

James memorized it and nodded as he said, “Alright. I memorized it. I’ll study it for a bit and send you

the prescribed formula tonight.”

After speaking, James turned around and left.

Cynthia followed him and insisted, “James, where are you going? I’ll come with you. I’ve got nothing to

do anyway. Plus, I don’t know anyone in Cansington. I’m dying from boredom.”

James did not know where he should be going.

Before he divorced Thea, he would have returned to the Callahans’ house.

After the divorce, he felt like he had lost his home. He had nowhere to return to and no place to stay.

James thought for a while and replied, “I’m going to Antique Street.”

His family had a treasure map, the Moonlit Flowers on Cliffside's Edge.

The map had disappeared ten years ago.

The Xaviers, the only people who knew about the map’s whereabouts, were long deceased.

Now, there was finally a new clue—the contents from the treasure chest unearthed from the Prince of

Orchid Mountain’s ancient tomb could unlock the secrets hidden on the Moonlit Flowers on Cliffside’s

Edge.

However, it was unknown who had spread the information.

James had acquired the information from Jake’s underground intelligence network that the treasure

chest had been transferred to Cansington and appeared in Sovereign Antique Shop on Antique Street.

During this period, Thea was James’ center of focus. Thus, he had never properly investigated it.

Since he had nothing to do, he planned to take a look.

“You like antiques, James? Me too! I’ll go with you,” Cynthia said with a smile.

Then, she held onto James’ arms again and leaned her whole body into James, seemingly wanting to

completely become one with him.

James pushed Cynthia’s hands away again.

“There are so many people looking. Don’t behave like this. Girls should be more reserved.”

“There’s no need to be reserved in front of you, James,” Cynthia said with a smile.

“You should go back if you’re going to keep acting like this,” James reprimanded her sternly.

Hearing this, Cynthia immediately behaved and let go of his hands. She stood beside him and nodded.

“F-Fine. I won’t hold onto you.”

James took a deep breath.

‘The girls at this age are too bold.

‘They act intimately with a man they’ve only met a few times. Wouldn’t they sleep with a man if they

met a few more times?’ thought James.
