“You don’t have a choice.”James threatened coldly, “There’s only one path you can take. You either team up with me and help me run some errands or get sent back to prison. Take your time to think about it. I’ll come to see you again.”Upon saying that, James got up to leave.Quincy, who tagged along, remained silent throughout the whole conversation. Seeing that James was about to stand up, she quickly rushed over to support him.Blake sat on the sofa with a grim expression as he watched James getting up.Quincy supported James and left the unit.Outside the apartment building…Quincy asked, “James, do you believe him?”James nodded. “Yeah. Sol’s history dates back thousands of years, and many things have been buried in the past. I believe in the existence of grandmasters capable of cultivating True Energy.”Quincy was suspicious of Blake’s unbelievable stories.Despite that, she dropped the topic and asked, “So, where to?”Standing on the district streets, James watched t

James covered his mouth and coughed. When he removed his hand, he saw that it was covered with blood.Tiny bugs could be seen crawling in his blood.Quincy’s face turned pale upon noticing them, and she exclaimed, “J-James, there are bugs in your blood…”James picked up some tissue and wiped his hands clean. He replied weakly, “This must be the Gu in my body. It’s the reason my body is deteriorating. I need to find out how to cultivate True Energy as soon as possible. Otherwise, the most I’ll have is three months before I’m completely paralyzed.”James was a doctor and knew his body’s condition very well.The Gu in his body had been laying eggs in his blood and multiplying in number.Soon, the Gu would cause him to be completely paralyzed and bedridden, unable to move a single muscle.His body would become home to countless Gus.“H-How should we go about this?” Quincy asked worriedly.“Don’t worry. I won’t die so soon.” James noticed Quincy’s anxious face, and his heart was wa

Quincy had not been home for a while, so there was no food in the kitchen. Moreover, she was not the type to cook.Therefore, she resorted to ordering takeout.James took out his phone, opened a map, and scrutinized it.After ordering food, Quincy turned around and peeped at James’ phone. She asked out of curiosity, “What are you looking at?”Quincy’s body leaned against James, and he could feel the residual warmth on her skin.The two looked incredibly intimate.James explained, “Ten years ago, I jumped into a river after Thea pulled me out of the inferno. My body drifted along the river, and I was washed up inside an underground cavern, where I found my medical book.”“So, that’s where your medical skills came from.” Quincy came to a realization.“Yeah.” James nodded and continued, “The cavern was huge. I was starving and hurriedly left after finding the medical book and some silver needles. My guess is there must be an Internal Martial Arts cultivation method in there. Howev

A few maps covered with numerous lines and circle markings were scattered on the table.After careful analysis, James took out a brand new map, picked up a pen, and drew a red circle on the map.“Have you found it?” asked Quincy.James replied uncertainly, “Ten years ago, I remember just finishing my dinner before my family villa was set in flames. After I was rescued, I jumped into a river and lost consciousness. When I woke up, I was already in the underground cavern. It took some time before I felt hungry, so I can conclude that the underground cavern isn’t far from my family’s villa.”James pointed to a river on the map.“I jumped into this river. According to the speed of the water, the underground cavern is most likely to be in this area.”Then, he pointed to a mountain.Quincy asked again, “Then, when will you be going?”James waved his hand and replied, “I’m not in a rush. Plus, I’m not certain if it’s even here or not. I’ll need someone to find out for me. I’ll give th

At the Callahans’ villa. Thea threw her phone in anger.Bang!The phone smashed into the wall and shattered on the ground.“That b*tch!”She furiously sat on the sofa.“What’s the matter, Thea? Why are you so mad?” Gladys walked over and asked after seeing Thea’s destroyed phone.“I-It’s nothing.”Thea took a deep breath, got up, and headed out.‘James belongs to me. I won’t allow another woman to have him.’She had been to Quincy’s newly bought villa before and had a feeling that James was there.Thea stormed out of the house, got into a newly bought Porsche, and rushed to Quincy’s place.Quincy was troubled after receiving Thea’s call.She knew that this day would come.For the sake of their friendship, Quincy had restrained herself from pursuing James and did not act until the two were divorced.She knew that being with James would mean the end of her friendship with Thea.Meanwhile, James was sleeping like a log.After some time, he woke up.Seeing Quincy sitting

“How is it none of my concern? You’re my husband! Let’s remarry…”She held James' hand and wanted to leave.Thea tugged him hard and pulled him out of the wheelchair. James was feeble and was unable to stand firm. Losing his balance, he fell to the ground.“What are you doing?!”Quincy quickly rushed to him and pushed Thea away, shouting, “Don’t you know he’s frail right now?”She hurriedly helped James up from the ground and asked worriedly, “Are you alright?”James waved his hand.Seeing this scene, Thea burst into tears and roared, “Tell me, James! Who is it that you want? Is it me or her?”Quincy could not stand Thea’s attitude. She helped James onto the wheelchair and glared coldly at Thea.“Thea, you keep saying you love him, and now you’re forcing him to make a choice. But, don’t you remember that you were the one who pushed him away? He’s poisoned and only has a few months left to live. Do you still want to remarry him?”“What?”Hearing this, Thea was frightened.

James shook his head, trying to get Thea out of his mind.He looked at Quincy’s cheek, which was red after being slapped. He stood up, caressed her slightly swollen face, and asked worriedly, “Does it hurt?”“Yeah,” Quincy responded aggrievedly and leaned into James’ arms.“I’m scared of losing you. Once you recover and go back to Thea, what will I do?”James gently embraced her and sighed. “Then, it must be fate. I’m indebted to her and will never be able to pay her back in this life. It’s my fault she was poisoned. How can I abandon her if I find a way to detoxify the venom?”Quincy knew his thoughts, which was why she was worried.Despite that, she was satisfied being the woman in James’ arms for the time being.Whatever was bound to happen in the future was inevitable.Still, she was willing to fight against it.Quincy believed she would not lose to Thea.“Cough…cough…”James weakly coughed a few times.Quincy quickly helped him back onto the wheelchair, saying, “It’s t

Quincy said with a smile, “Since Thea wants to follow, let her come with us.”“Hmph!” Thea snorted.Ignoring Quincy, she tried to help James into the car.“I can do it myself.”James shook her hand off and got into the car without anyone’s help.Thea quickly got into the car and sat beside him.Not wanting to be outdone, Quincy walked to the other side of the vehicle. She opened the door and sat on the other side of James.After everyone got in their respective vehicles, the team set off slowly to their destination.Shortly after getting into the car, James leaned back and closed his eyes to rest.Thea held his hand intimately and asked with a smile, “Honey, where are we going?”Quincy criticized her, “Can you be quiet? James needs to rest right now.”Thea retorted, “I’m talking to my husband right now. What does it have to do with you?”“You…”Quincy was furious.James opened his eyes, looked at Thea, and said in dissatisfaction, “Can you keep it down? You’re being very
