James’ face was filled with rage.“You guys want to play? Fine, I’ll play with you guys and make sure you have a fun game.“Ask the Blithe King to come and see me at Common Clinic,” James ordered furiously.Henry glanced at James.He wanted to say that the Blithe King was not James’ subordinate. However, he swallowed the words and simply walked aside. He took out his phone and called the Blithe King.“Blithe King? Yes, it’s me again. James has requested you come to Common Clinic to see him.”The Blithe King had just arrived home from the military region. Yet before he could have a seat, he received a call from Henry.He furiously swung his leg and shattered the villa door.“Tell James I don’t work for him. He doesn’t have the authority to order me around.”Henry heard the Blithe King growl and smash his door. Then, he turned around and glanced at James sitting behind him.“I advise you to come as soon as possible, Blithe King. James is on the verge of going on a rampage rig
The Blithe King sighed in relief.He had already investigated James’ situation.Although James was short-tempered, he never hurt the innocent, only those who deserved it.The Blithe King was willing to cover it up for him if the dozens of people that died deserved it.“This is the last time.” The Blithe King stood up and left.After the Blithe King left, James did not continue to hang around. He instructed Henry on some matters, then left the Common Clinic and returned to Thea’s house.It was already eight in the evening when he arrived home.Thea was home before him.Gladys immediately complained as soon as James’ returned home. “Where did you go the whole day instead of cooking?”“I met a military comrade and spent some time catching up with him,” James walked into the house and explained.“Mom… He’s my husband, not a maid. It isn’t his responsibility to be cooking every day.” Thea hurriedly stood up and protected James.“He eats and lives in our home for free! Is he exp
Thea sat in front of her computer and designed clothes.James did not understand the design process and did not want to disturb her. He went to get his mat and spread it out on the ground.He glanced at Thea, who was seriously designing, and a smile that even he did not notice formed on his face.The next day.David’s car that got into the accident has been taken to the automobile center to be repaired and was already fixed. Today, he was going to pick up the car and finish some follow-up procedures, including registering insurance and so on.Gladys and the whole family were naturally going to follow him.Before leaving, Gladys asked, “James, can you drive?”James nodded. “Yeah.” Gladys threw him a car key and instructed him, saying, “Xara will be coming back today. You take David’s Honda to pick her up.”“...”James scratched his head. “Who’s Xara?” “Xara Hill is my cousin. She just graduated from college and finished her practice in the field. She’s planning to come back
The man driving the BMW X5 was named Nelson Moore.His boss was pretty well-known in the criminal world and owned a decent club in Cansington.His task was to drive the BMW X5 to find prey outside the bus stations, train stations, and airports.As soon as he found a pretty woman from out of town, he would approach and lure them.The moment they got in the car, they were captured.Nelson would immediately take out a drugged drink that he had prepared in advance as soon as the woman got in the car.Once the woman took a sip, she would feel drowsy and pass out. Then, they would sleep with the woman and take pictures to threaten her.Afterward, the woman would be sent to the club to earn money for their boss.Nelson looked at Xara.She was one of the most beautiful women he had come across and would likely earn them a lot of money in the club.‘Boss will surely reward me well if she earns him a lot of money.‘I have to get her.’Nelson got out of the car.He had a decent app
“What…”Francis hesitated.He had been pursuing Xara for many years, and his chance had finally come.However, Mad Dog was not someone he could offend. He was a gangster in the criminal world and had hundreds of men under him. The Lelands would be in trouble if he offended Mad Dog. “Hurry and get lost…” Nelson pushed him away with his leg.“Y-yes! I’ll go right now.”After contemplating the pros and cons, Francis compromised.There was no reason to offend Mad Dog just for a woman.The Lelands would be in big trouble if Mad Dog targeted them.He turned around to leave.“Xara?”Suddenly a voice sounded.James stopped the car and compared the woman in the photo with the one standing by the road. After confirming it was the right person, he hurriedly walked over and greeted her, saying, “Xara, it’s James.”“You’re the James that married into the Callahans?” Xara glanced at James.She had heard rumors before returning to Cansington.The Callahans found a husband for her co
Nelson made a phone call.Francis was terrified. He would be involved and get beaten up if Mad Dog really showed up with his men. The Lelands might also be dragged into the mess.He was so frightened that his legs went rubbery. Immediately, he turned around, got into his car, and drove off to a safe distance to watch without bothering to take Xara with him.Xara was also a little worried. Although she was not from Cansington, she knew that the Lelands were considered a wealthy family in the city. Despite that, Francis was afraid to offend the man.This proved that the person in front of them was not someone easy to mess with.She pulled James and whispered, “Quick, let’s make a run for it.” However, James seemed unbothered.He glanced at Nelson, who was on the phone. Nelson had quite a handsome face. Unfortunately, it was because of his good looks that he could deceive some vain women.“You better get more people. It might not be enough for me to beat up if you don’t get m
Daniel walked in and smiled at James. Then, he gave the order.“Seize them.”The ferocious-looking thugs were seized in an instant.Upon seeing Daniel, Xara’s heart raced. That was one-star General Daniel Highsmith under the command of the Blithe King!However, before she could even react, Daniel had left.She watched him leave, her disappointment apparent on her face. That was the closest she had ever been to her hero. How could she have missed the opportunity to take a picture with him?James had long known that the Blithe King was tailing him. Perhaps this was a blessing in disguise, lest he attracted unwanted attention.He pulled Xara’s suitcase along and smiled. “Let’s go.”Xara nodded in response. “Okay.”Seeing that the thugs had been seized, Francis, who was watching in the distance, drove toward them immediately.He got out of the vehicle and approached Xara. He hurriedly explained, “Don’t be afraid, Xara. I’ll protect you. My family is well-acquainted with a gener
In the Audi.Xara was in the passenger’s seat.Francis drove all while boasting nonstop about his family’s prestige in Cansington and how much money he was currently earning through his own company.“Xara, I heard from Thea that you came to Cansington to look for a job. Why not come and work for me in my herb processing plant? With my family’s connections, I can rake in millions a year. I can even make you the manager.”“We’ll see.”Xara was disinterested.Francis could make a good boyfriend. Since they were classmates, she knew his personality well.However, she had no feelings for him whatsoever.She liked heroes. She admired those who were strong.She came to Cansington in search of a living precisely because the Blithe King had been transferred here.She worshipped heroes and had an affinity for generals with great military prowess like the Blithe King.However, she was capable of distinguishing between dreams and reality.It was her dream to marry a general.However,
