Chapter 739

“I’ll keep that in mind!”

James smiled brightly.novelbin

“Mere parasite venom isn’t going to bring me down! Sooner or later, I will return to the courthouse to

pick up the Blade of Justice and behead those who have sinned!”

“Haha. I’ll be waiting for your glorious return to claim it once again! However, I’m afraid you might not

have the chance. I’ve heard that Cansington is incredibly chaotic right now, and since you’ve offended

a lot of people, many of them want you dead. You’ll be in danger if you go back there. I suggest you

stay in the Capital. At least no one dares to touch you here.”

The Emperor showed a sardonic smile. It made him look gloomy and creepy.

“Let’s head back, Quincy.” James did not say anything more.

“Alright.”

Quincy pushed James back to the nearby parking lot and drove back to the hotel.

Soon, they returned to the hotel.

After returning to the hotel, James felt his stomach grumbling again.

He rubbed his abdomen and said embarrassedly, “I’m a little hungry. Could you order something for

me?”

He did not want to trouble Quincy anymore.

These days, Quincy had been following him, taking care of him, and protecting him.

James knew Quincy’s feelings toward him. The more he did so, the more embarrassed he felt. He did

not know how to repay her.

However, his body did not allow him to be stubborn. His body was weak, and it was best he stayed in

bed. He would have died from exhaustion if he had to do everything himself.

“I’ll ring the hotel staff to deliver some food.”

Quincy picked up the phone and called the hotel receptionist.

“By the way, help me buy a plane ticket. I’m heading back to Cansington,” James instructed.

“Alright.”

After Quincy had ordered the food, she began booking tickets online. She muttered, “There’s nothing

much to do in the Capital. I’d better go back to Cansington with you. At least I have a house there.”

She peeped at James while speaking. “James, where do you plan to stay in Cansington? You can

come to my house if you don’t have anywhere to stay. I live alone in a newly bought villa.”

“How can I trouble you?” James was embarrassed. He scratched his head and said, “I’ve already

troubled you a lot these few days. After returning to Cansington, I don’t want to continue burdening

you.”

“But, you don’t have a place to stay in Cansington. Don’t tell me you’re planning to return to the

Callahans?” Quincy stared at James.

Hearing this, James went silent.

‘Go back? Is it possible to go back?’

In the past, he was one of the Five Commanders of Sol, the War God, and the behind-the-scene boss

of the Transgenerational Group. He intended to come clean to Thea and have a sensational wedding

with her after taking care of everything.

However, he was a nobody right now.

He knew the Callahans very well. With his current status, even if Thea accepted him again, the

Callahans would never agree to it.

James shook his head to discard his jumbled thoughts. He did not respond to the question, but Quincy

knew what he was thinking.

Quincy said with a smile, “Thea is a good woman. You two simply had a lot of misunderstandings in the

past. Since the misunderstanding has been resolved, I’m sure Thea will agree if you suggest

remarrying.”

“Remarry? Is that even possible?” James murmured. He shook his head and said, “Forget it. Let’s not

talk about that.”

James had no interest in relationships anymore. His priority was to find out more about the venom in

his body and detoxify it.

Besides, he was not the only one who was poisoned. Thea too suffered from the parasitic venom.

If it were not for him, Thea would never have to suffer. He felt guilty toward her.

The room fell into a brief silence.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

Quincy stood up and said, “The food must be here.”

She walked over and opened the food. Expectedly, it was the hotel’s food delivery.

The two sat at the table inside the room, both eating with thoughts on their mind.

They ate their meals in silence until suddenly, both of them raised their heads simultaneously.

Their eyes locked.

Quincy’s pretty face blushed red instantly, and she hurriedly said, “D-Do you want more? Should I order

another set for you?”
