Chapter 895

Maxine carefully analyzed the problem between James and Thea from a woman’s perspective.

She gave James a thorough analysis.

The Thea from ten years ago was brave and strong.

However, a person who had gone through ten years of humiliation and ridicule would change no matter

how brave and persistent they once were.

Despite that, Thea did not crumble, and that alone was admirable.

“She’s quite a decent woman, worthy of being cherished. Don’t wait until you lose her to regret it.

Although Quincy is your first love who waited ten years for you and has been kind to you, she also

looked down on you when you were the live-in son-in-law of the Callahans. Only after realizing yournovelbin

identity did she start taking care of you attentively.

“Meanwhile, Tiara was an accident. Didn’t her father insist on sending you to prison before she found

out about your identity? She hated you, but her attitude changed after finding out you were a national

hero.”

Maxine expressed her view on his relationships.

“Let’s go.” James was unwilling to discuss his complicated relationships.

He was conflicted and unsure of what to do.

Although he did not want to disappoint anyone, that was simply impossible. Ultimately, he would

disappoint those he did not choose.

The two of them walked out of the airport together.

James said, “His full name is Liam Zook. His parents died in a car accident when he was a child.

According to the information, he has a seventeen-year-old younger sister. Her name is Yvette Zook,

and she’s a third-year student at Sunleigh High School.”

Maxine replied, “Alright. Then, let’s head to Sunleigh High School.”

“Mhm.” James nodded.

After walking out of the airport, James found that it had been cleared. There was no one outside except

for some military vehicles.

The person standing in front was a middle-aged man in military uniform with a one-star badge on his

shoulder.

The man was in his fifties but looked energetic and charismatic.

Seeing James and Maxine approaching, the general with a star on his military uniform walked over and

saluted.

He greeted loudly, “Hardy Lane, General stationed in Sunleigh City, honored to meet the Dragon King!”

James' brows furrowed.

He had kept his whereabouts a secret while traveling around the country. Supposedly, no one was

supposed to know.

Moreover, after he was demoted, his reinstatement was not made public. James was puzzled as to

how Hardy knew that he had resumed his post and that he would appear in Sunleigh City.

“Why are you here, General Lane?” James asked with a frown.

Hardy said with a smile, “Dragon King, I came to pick you up after learning that you were visiting our

city. I’ve prepared a banquet for you in the best hotel in Sunleigh City. I’m here to escort you there.”

James waved his hand. “That won’t be necessary. Also, this is an airport that countless people would

need to access. How could you just block it off?”

“I was afraid they might disturb you. By the way, the major families of Sunleigh City and chairmen of

major groups are waiting outside the airport to see you,” said Hardy.

James questioned, “Who spread the news that I was coming to Sunleigh City?”

“The news came from the Cansington military region,” Hardy replied respectfully.

“Alright, that’s enough. Dismiss your people and get out of here.” James waved his hand.

There could only be two people who spread the news if it came from the Cansington military region—

the Blithe King or Daniel.

However, James could not understand why would either of them leak his whereabouts.

He would have to question them about it after returning to Cansington.

“D-Dragon King, many prominent figures of Sunleigh City are waiting for you outside. Are you not going

to see them?”

“No.” James turned around and walked away.

Suddenly, he realized he would be surrounded if he walked out like this. He turned back to Hardy and

ordered, “Get me a car. I’m heading to Sunleigh High School.”

“Yes, sir!” Hardy immediately answered.

He prepared a car and acted as the personal driver for James and Maxine, bringing them to Sunleigh

High School.

In the car, Maxine teased James, “Dragon King. You have such an overbearing title. Since the country’s

establishment, you’re the first person to be given the title of a King and awarded a territory of your

own.”

James shook his head and said, “It’s just a superficial title. Plus, the higher one’s position, the heavier

one’s burden. I have long wanted to quit, but with the country’s current situation, I can’t just leave.”

After he finished speaking, he closed his eyes and began to rest.

At the same time, Sunleigh High School, senior class 3.
