Chapter 793

After being admitted to the hospital for half a month, the gun wound on her leg had healed.

Although she had not recuperated completely, she merely needed some rest and everything would

simply work out.

The Callahans were here to take her home.

After James gave the 10 billion dollars to Thea, Gladys bought a new villa near the Callahans’ villa.

All the Callahans were here on the day Thea was discharged.

Now, Thea was the one who controlled the family’s finances. That was why every single of her relatives

was buttering her up.

“Thea, Eternality has expanded its production recently. Business is booming because of you!”

“Your title as Asclepius really helped us a lot here.”

“I think it’s time for some reforms. We can’t continue ordering from other businesses. We have to pour

money into our own R&D and produce medicine ourselves. Then, we will list the company on the stock

exchange.”

The Callahans surrounded Thea and bombarded her with flattering remarks.

Meanwhile, Thea looked at James, who was deep in contemplation, and grabbed his hand, “What do

you think, honey?”

“Huh?”

As James was deep in thought, he did not hear what the others were saying.

Thea said, “Grandpa said it’s time for Eternality to implement a few reforms and make medicinenovelbin

ourselves. After we have spread our name far and wide, we will list the company on the stock

exchange.”

“I’ll leave it to you to decide. I don’t know much about stuff like this.” James shook his head and looked

at Tiara. “Tiara, bring me upstairs. I’m tired.”

“Alright.” Tiara walked over to him and carried him upstairs.

After James left, Gladys approached Thea and whispered, “Thea, are you really going to remarry

James? He’s no longer the Black Dragon nor the owner of the Transgenerational Group, you know?

He’s now a commoner. Besides, he’s gravely poisoned. Rumor on the street is that his life is hanging

by a thread. Soon, he won’t be able to walk, and he’ll die a slow and painful death.”

“Gladys is right,” Tommy chimed in. “He’s no longer the Black Dragon, Thea. He’s trash now. Do you

wish to be dragged down by him for the rest of your life?”

Megan nodded. “I think he’s now useless. We’ll be the laughingstock of the world if you marry him.”

The Callahans offered their opinions on the matter. Though they were grateful for James’ help, they

were nonetheless irritated upon seeing James' current condition.

Thea’s face darkened. “What are you guys talking about? Would our family still be here today without

James? He was the one who gave me the 10 billion dollars. There’s no way that our family would have

risen without the money. Even if remains bedridden for the rest of his life, I won’t abandon him. Don’t

bring up this topic anymore.”

The Callahans looked at one another. Since Thea was in control of the family’s finances, they did not

dare offend her.

“I-I will go have a look at him.”

Thea got up and headed upstairs.

In a room on the second floor…

James was lying on a bed.

His face was pale when he was downstairs. However, now that he was in the room, color returned to

his face.

“Tiara, how’s the situation with Quincy?”

Tiara said, “It’s on the right track. I’ve sent her your formula, and the product should have been

manufactured. However, before we can introduce it to the market, we have to go through cumbersome

procedures and government red tape.”

All this while, Tiara had remained by James’ side. Not only did she take care of James, but she was

also an intermediary between him and Quincy.

James knew that he was being targeted. That was why instead of meeting or calling Quincy, he sent

Tiara to deliver his messages.

At that moment, Thea walked in, and Tiara stopped talking immediately.

Thea then ordered, “Go wash the clothes, Tiara. I’ll take care of James.”

“Ok.”

Tiara nodded and turned to leave.
