Chapter 907
Thea was reluctant to let James go.James used to be incredibly kind to her, but she did not cherish him. After losing him, she deeply regretted it.She did not blame James. Instead, she knew that it was her fault.Thea tried her best to urge him to stay.James remained silent.Seeing Thea desperately trying to persuade him, he felt tempted to stay but was unable to do so because he promised to marry Tiara. He was a man who was true to his word. “Since you already know everything, you should also know what happened between Tiara and me.”“Yeah, I do.” Thea let go of James and said, “Go if you want.”James did not say anything more. He turned around and left.Thea’s face was full of sadness and helplessness. Underneath it all, she felt resolution while watching James walk away from her. She murmured, “I’m not giving up. Even if I have to chase you to the ends of the earth, I’ll surely make you turn around!”She was confident. Thea believed that as long as she did her best an

Tiara took James to the second floor, pushed open a door, and said, “James, you can stay in this room. The sheets and everything else inside were newly bought.”“Alright.” James nodded.He walked into the room.Tiara followed him with a hesitant expression as if wanting to say something, James looked at her and asked, “Do you have something to say?”Tiara was slightly embarrassed and her pretty face flushed red. “J-James, you and Thea…”She paused, summoned the courage, and asked, “D-Did you come back because of me? I…I already told you I don’t want to force you, and I sincerely wish the best for you and Thea. All I want is for you two to be well and fine.”“Nonsense. Stop overthinking it. You go out first. I want to continue reading my book.”“Okay…” Tiara replied dispiritedly and walked out.Downstairs…The two women sat together.Seeing Tiara approaching, Quincy asked as if gossiping, “Did you ask James why he didn’t stay at the Callahans?”Tiara looked at her and asked,

“Missing?”James was stunned.He recollected himself and asked, “She was fine yesterday. How did she suddenly go missing?”Quincy sighed. “She was acting strange last night and asked many unusual questions.”“What kind of questions?”“In short, she felt that she had troubled and distressed you. She thinks you didn’t stay with the Callahans and that you came back because of her. I woke up and couldn’t find her anywhere. She even packed and left with her luggage.”James wore a worried expression.“Why’re you still standing in a daze? Hurry and find her!”“Me? Where am I going to find her?” James was at a loss.Quincy said, “She must be planning to return to the Capital and probably hasn’t arrived at the airport yet. Can’t you use your connections to stop her from leaving?”“Mhm.” James nodded and rushed down the stairs.Maxine had already gotten up and was using her True Energy to discharge the excessive Cold Energy in Cynthia’s body.Seeing James coming downstairs, Maxine stop

The old man approached her.Tiara asked, “Were you calling me just now, sir?”“Of course.”The old man was none other than Thomas. He leaned forward and whispered into Tiara’s ears.“Really?!!” Tiara was ecstatic.“Definitely. Come with me. It’s not a lie,” Thomas said with a smile.Tiara left the airport with Thomas inside a black vehicle, while James reached the airport a little too late. After arriving, he phoned the Blithe King.The Blithe King informed him that there was indeed a person named Tiara Youngblood that booked a ticket. However, she did not board the plane.James frowned upon hearing the news. “She didn’t board the plane?”“Yeah, the flight she booked has already taken off, but she didn’t board the plane.”“Alright. I got it.” James hung up the phone.He sat on the stairs outside the airport, smoking a cigarette pensively. “Where could she go if she didn’t board the plane?” James muttered to himself. “Did something happen to her?”James suddenly became anx

James had no choice but to return home and wait for the news.He hailed a taxi back to Cynthia’s villa.Maxine hurriedly asked as soon as he entered the house, “How was it? Did you find her?”James shook his head. He walked over and sat down on the sofa.Cynthia also asked, “Did you not find her?”Maxine had already discharged the excessive Cold Energy in Cynthia’s body, allowing her body temperature to return to normal for the time being.Cynthia looked at James worriedly. He took out his phone and opened the surveillance footage sent by the Blithe King.Maxine leaned over and took a look. After watching the footage, she asked with concern, “Who’s that old man? Why did Tiara leave with him?”James’ expression was bleak.“Judging from his appearance, it might be my grandfather. However, he was supposed to have died in the fire ten years ago. I’ve already requested the Blithe King to use his authority to track down the man in the footage. I’ve also asked the underground intelli

Grandpa had always treated him affectionately when he was young.Thomas taught him to read the ancient language and helped him build a solid medical foundation. His grandfather’s teachings were the reason he was capable of comprehending medical books in a short period.“James, how can I make you believe me? Your grandfather was the person that started the conflict within the Cadens back then. Do you know how many of our family members he killed? So many of our relatives died at his hands. He’s a cunning man that would do anything to achieve his goal, even if it meant killing his own family. Even if you’re his grandson, he won’t show you mercy if you get in his way.”Maxine tried to warn him.She did not want James to be blinded by the truth and lose his judgment because it concerned his grandfather.“I’m sure my grandfather isn’t someone like that. He must’ve had a reason.” James shook his head.He doubted everything Maxine said because he believed that he knew his grandfather ve

“Ms. Xenos.”The security guards charging at James halted their steps and greeted Quincy respectfully.“Go back to work.” Quincy scanned the security guards and ordered them to return to their posts.“Understood!” The security guards left.Quincy looked at James and asked, “Aren’t you supposed to be looking for Tiara? Why are you at the company?”“I’m here for Thea.”“Why’re you looking for her?”“I need to ask her some questions.”“Alright, I’ll take you to her.”Quincy took James to an office located on the top floor.After Thea received James’ call, she patiently waited for him to arrive. In less than an hour, he showed up.“James…” She stood up and greeted him.James walked toward the office’s lounge area and sat on the sofa. Thea went over and sat down opposite him, while Quincy also remained in the office.He took out his phone, opened the surveillance footage sent to him by the Blithe King, and pushed his phone on the table toward Thea. “Watch it. Tell me, do you

“I’ve really no clue at all.”Thea denied it again.“If I find out that you lied to me… Hmph!” James snorted, stood up furiously, and turned to leave.“James…” Quincy called out for him. She cast a glance at Thea and quickly chased after James. She grabbed his arm and asked, “What happened, James?”James took a deep breath and calmed himself down. He explained, “Tiara was taken away by someone. This person is most likely my grandfather. However, he is supposed to have died in the fire ten years ago, so I can’t be certain. On top of that, Maxine had suggested that the God-King Palace was created by my grandfather, Thomas. He had secretly been in contact with Thea and got her to help me twice.”“I-Isn’t this a good thing? Your grandfather is helping you from behind the scenes. Is there a problem with that?” asked Quincy.James explained, “Yes, but Maxine described my grandpa as cunning and heinous. Plus, Tiara disappeared with him, and I don’t know where they went.”“W-Why is ev
