Chapter 593

A police car pulled up to the courthouse.

James was escorted out of the car.

He noticed that there a crowd had formed at the gates of the court.

Thea and the rest of the Callahans were there. So were Quincy, Scarlett, and the others fromTransgenerational Group. Zigmund was present too. Thea walked over to James who was in handcuffsand being escorted out of the police car.” May I speak with him for a while?”

The police nodded and said, “Make it quick.”

James smiled at her weakly. “Why are you here, honey?”

Thea raised her hand to interrupt him.

“You’re going to be convicted, James. The judge might deal with you leniently if you admit to yourcharges. I hope you learn your lesson after going to prison. I won’t be waiting for you. Once yoursentence is determined, I will divorce you.”

James felt a lump in his throat.

Throughout their marriage, they had constantly been at odds with each other.

This led to them almost splitting up a few times.

Now, Thea had finally uttered those words decisively.

“Thea…”

Ignoring James, Thea turned to leave.

James, on the other hand, continued to be led away by the police.

In the defendant’s room at court…

James had a cheerless expression. The trial was not at all in his favor. The best way forward was toplead for Zigmund to withdraw the case.

At that moment, the Blithe King entered the room.

The Blithe King lit a cigarette and handed it to James.

James took it and looked at him. “What? Did you come here to laugh at me?”

The Blithe King took a seat opposite James and smiled at him. “How could you think of me like that?I’m here to see if there’s anything I can help you out with.”

“Get Zigmund here for me.”novelbin

James smoked his cigarette. Now that it had come to this, he had no choice but to tell Zigmund thewhole truth and pray that he would withdraw the case.

“Sure.”

The Blithe King turned to leave.

Soon, he entered the room with Zigmund by his side.

Zigmund walked over to James and said coldly, “I’m telling you, James. It’s no use. Even if the BlitheKing intercedes for you, I will never withdraw the case.” James smiled cooly at him. “What if I told you I

was being framed?” “Framed?”

Zigmund scoffed at his suggestion. “With all the decisive evidence we currently have?” The Blithe Kingchimed in. “He really was being framed. You’re the guest at this year’s medical conference. You shouldbe aware of yesterday’s events on Medical Street. Jonathan Harris was behind this all along, He wasafraid that James would ruin his plans. So, he came up with a plan to send him to prison.”

Zigmund was stunned at this revelation. Then, he glared at James. “Are you telling me that Jonathanset him up? Who does he think he is? The Black Dragon?’ “That’s right.” The Blithe King nodded. “Theone and only.” Zigmund stood up immediately. Wearing a dumbfounded look, he asked puzzledly, “Howcan that be? I saw the Black Dragon with my own eyes yesterday. The Black Dragon is the guardian ofSol. He has made significant contributions to our country. Just yesterday, he defended the honor ofSolean Medicine all by himself. Blithe King, please don’t speak lightly of the Black Dragon.” The BlitheKing explained stoically. “I speak only the truth. I substituted James for my own man and got him out ofhere. This was the only way he managed to turn the tides of the competition yesterday. He was therewearing a mask in disguise.”

Saying that, he pulled James’ Black Dragon identity card out. “Have a look at this.”

Zigmund took it. Seeing that it was indeed the Black Dragon identity card, he was shocked. “A-Are youreally the Black Dragon?” James nodded. “Yes. Though I knew Jonathan was plotting something, Idon’t know what exactly. Little did I know that he was planning to defeat all practitioners of SoleanMedicine to expand Goryeon Medicine’s sphere of influence. I believe this incident at the medicalconference was only just the beginning. They will not stop there.”

“He was afraid I’d ruin his plans. That was why he came up with a way to set me up. I was careless andfell for his schemes. Although I was being framed, the fact remains that I had sexual intercourse withyour daughter. I deeply apologize for that.” Zigmund stared at James intently.
