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 your 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 relationship
It was noon, and classes had yet to begin.Most students gathered in groups to chit-chat, gossiping about the dating lives of other students and teachers.“Yvette, get over here right now!” A voice sounded.Following the shouts, a young man stomped over furiously with a dozen classmates.Meanwhile, a young girl with long black hair dressed in a white dress was listening to music through her headphones. She was seated in the last row of the classroom.Her head bopped along with the music. Suddenly, she sensed something wrong and raised her head. Seeing the dozen or so students approaching, her expression slightly darkened. She took off her headphones, opened the window, and jumped outside. After landing, she quickly took off.The male student in the lead ordered furiously, “Follow me! I have to kill that f*cking b*tch!”The group of students quickly rushed after her.Yvette dashed down the stairs. In a panic, she bumped into a few people and got an earful from them.At the sa
Yvette knew Hugo’s character.He was a school bully who had recruited a group of students and constantly flaunted his power. Yvette knew she would be in trouble if she fell into his hands.Her priority was to find a way to escape.As for how she would deal with him in the future, she would have to think about that later.“F*cking b*tch, how dare you get in the way of my fun?” Hugo shouted as he walked over furiously. He scanned Yvette’s face and figure. She was indeed beautiful, and he was satisfied.“Seeing that you’re sincere, I’ll give you a chance to make me feel good. I’ll forgive you if you manage to satisfy me.”“S-Sure thing, Mr. Doyle.” Yvette smiled brightly.Saying that, she immediately pushed her way through one of the male students and ran away. Unfortunately, she could not outrun a group of boys and got caught almost instantly. They dragged her by her hair and pressed her against a wall.Hugo walked over, tugged her hair, and slapped her face, cursing, “Haven’t
James immediately reached out and grabbed Hugo’s wrist.Hugo struggled but could not break free. His face instantly flushed red from embarrassment, and he shouted, “Let go of me, b*stard!”James let go of him but raised his foot to kick him.Hugo flew several meters away, and his body was slammed to the ground. He groaned in pain.His compliances were shocked by the scene. Their opponent was too strong.“Why are you guys still standing there? Attack and kill him!” Hugo roared from the ground.The other students quickly returned to their senses and took out their switchblades to scare James.However, James suddenly dashed toward them.A few seconds later…The students were all lying on the ground, shouting in pain.Maxine looked at James with a strange expression and thought, ‘He sure is a great fighter. He managed to take so many people down so easily.’“Thanks.”Yvette expressed her gratitude and turned to leave.“Wait a moment. You’re Yvette Zook, right?” James stopped h
Yvette took dozens of selfies with James upon recognizing him. In the last few, she was practically hanging onto his body. The pose was ridiculous and also intimate.“Oh, right.”After taking the selfies, Yvette suddenly remembered something and asked, “Why were you looking for me?”“I’m here because of your brother.”James blamed himself for what happened to those soldiers. He felt incredibly guilty.He had reached out to the soldiers’ families and explained the situation. He also agreed to fulfill almost all of their requests.“Let’s find a place to sit down and talk.”“Okay.” Yvette nodded.The three of them left together.Near Sunleigh High School, a cafe.They sat down in a private room.James began to explain what truly happened in the cavern.“Your brother died because of me. I came to see you because I wanted to know if there was anything I could do to help you.”“Huff,” Yvette sighed.“My brother has had it rough ever since he was a kid. He was forced to quit jun
After being beaten up, Hugo immediately called home for his bodyguards to come and back him up.His family’s bodyguards were all great fighters, and each of them could deal with more than a dozen people alone.No matter how good of a fighter James was, he would get him to kneel and beg for mercy.Hugo walked in, glared at James, and pointed to the ground, demanding, “B*stard! Kneel immediately, and I’ll let you go, or else…”Yvette hid behind James and whispered, “He’s from the Doyles. They’re a quite an influential family in Sunleigh City and have assets worth tens of billions. They’re involved in both legal and illegal businesses.”James nodded lightly. He knew that Hugo would keep pestering Yvette if he were to leave without resolving the matter.It would be useless to beat up Hugo again since he would still try to get revenge after James left the city.He would have to call Hugo’s father.When he got off the plane, Hardy had told him that some wealthy people from Sunleigh C
James’ identity was no longer a secret as it was exposed during the public trial.However, most of the people gathered in the cafe were mere students focused on their studies. They largely did not pay much attention to national news or political affairs, so they could not recognize James.Even if some had heard about the trial, they did not watch it and had no impression of James’ appearance.Hugo sat down, crossed his legs, and lit an imported cigar to smoke. He was young but seemed incredibly used to smoking like he had been a smoker for many years.Meanwhile…After receiving James’ call, Hardy, the general stationed in Sunleigh City, was furious.“Quick, go inform Timothy!”Immediately, a lieutenant entered his room and asked, “General Lane, what’s the matter?”Hardy shouted angrily, “The Dragon King called me, saying that Timothy’s son has caused trouble at school. He wants Timothy to go there in person right now!”“What? The Dragon King, James?”“Stop asking so many ques
The cafe’s owner and the students present were shocked.This person was a one-star general. Why was he treating the person in front of him with so much respect?Many onlookers turned their eyes to James. Some students curiously took out their phones and searched for the Dragon King. Immediately, search results of James being recently appointed the Dragon King popped up on their screens.It was supposed to be a secret. However, there were plenty of people when James was awarded the title. Thus, the news had already started to spread in the inner circle, but most outsiders were still unaware of it.“D-Dragon King? James, the Dragon King? The commander of the Black Dragon Army?!” Someone from the crowd exclaimed.James' identity was exposed in an instant. Everyone looked at him in astonishment.Hugo was shocked after the beating. He got up from the ground and covered his bruised face, saying, “Uncle, it’s me, Hugo. W-Why did you hit me?”He could not grasp what had just happened an
