Chapter 1109
After hanging up the phone, James helped Delilah up and said, “ Let’s go.” “Mhm.” Delilah nodded andleft the bar alongside James.
Meanwhile, Maxine followed close behind.
After leaving the bar, James pulled his phone out and called Madelyn.
“T’m sorry, the number you have dialed is not available.” James frowned.
“Huh, weird...” Maxine said, “The dynamics in the Capital are complex.
All families and forces have informants иσν???вσσк.￠σмeverywhere.
It’s only natural for her to be extra cautious.
After all, she’ll be dead if she’s discovered.
Let’s return for now and wait for another opportunity to show itself.” James did not think much about it.
Looking at Delilah, he asked, “Have you eaten?” Delilah shook her head.
James brought her to a nearby restaurant and requested a private room.
In the private room, James asked, “What happened? How did you end up singing at a bar?” Delilahwas still wearing James’ jacket.
Taking a sip of a glass of warm water, she said, “My family went bankrupt.
My stepfather disappeared without a trace, leaving my mother with a pile of debt.
Though we’ve pawned everything in the house, not to mention that I’ve used up all of my savings torepay the debts, we still owe a great amount of debt.
Since I’ve been canceled, I have no choice but to sing in a bar.” James asked, “How much do youowe?” “Around a few hundred million.” Delilah was not too sure herself.
After all, these were debts owed by his stepfather.
“That much?” James frowned and asked, “What does your stepfather do for a living?” Delilah said, “Heruns a tech business, so he should be a pretty rich guy with assets totaling a few billion dollars.
I heard from my mom that he antagonized some big shots.
That’s why his company went bankrupt and he disappeared without a trace.” “What's the name of thecompany? I’ll investigate the matter.” “Blue Tech Corporation.” James pulled out his phone and called anumber.
“Investigate the reason Blue Tech Corporation went bankrupt and find out the whereabouts of itsowner.” “Thank you, Dragon General.” Delilah was thankful.
“Don’t mention it.
You’re General Kimberly’s daughter.
It’s my responsibility to take care of you now that he’s no longer here with us.novelbin
I told you to give me a call if you have any difficulties.
By the way, what do you mean by being canceled?” Delilah sighed.
“Since my stepfather owed a huge amount of debt, the debt collectors came knocking on the door ofthe entertainment company I was in.
These people seem to be rather powerful, so the company fired me.” “1’ll deal with it.” James gave hisassurance.
He never expected such an unjust thing to happen in the Capital.
He silently vowed to thoroughly investigate the matter.
Soon, the dishes arrived.
After eating dinner, they left the restaurant.
Outside the restaurant, James asked, “Where are you currently staying?” Delilah said, “Since we’veauctioned off our house, my mom and I currently rent a house in the suburbs.” “Let me escort youback.” Delilah hurriedly shook her head.
“Th-There’s no need for that.
I can return myself.
Thank you for your help.
Once I’ve washed the jacket you lent me, I'll return it to the Emperor’s Mansion.” Then, she turned toleave.
James remained silent.
Maxine by his side asked, “Are we going back now?” “You should return first.
I’ll head over to the military region for a while,” James said.
“Mhm...
Alright, be careful then.” Maxine said.
Then, she left.
James, on the other hand, headed over to the military region.
Along the way, he called Blake.
A few days ago, he had instructed Blake to investigate the generals of the military region.
A few days passed, yet there were still no results.
Soon, the call went through.
James asked, “How’s the investigation going?” “иσν???вσσк.￠σм James, are you referring to thelocation of the laboratories or the generals of the Red Flame Army?” “Both.” “I have yet to obtain anyreliable information regarding the location of the laboratories.
Right now, I’m still investigating the Red Flame Army’s generals.
They’ve recently removed all traces of what they did in the past, so progress has been slow.”
