His power was beyond comprehension.Not only that, he was an exceedingly talented doctor, too.She had never in her wildest nightmares imagined James would gain such a terrifying identity. It was no wonder that the Blithe King did nothing when Trent was killed. The person that killed Trent was the Black Dragon, someone that not even the Blithe King could touch.Charles only started calming down when James left.His entire body was drenched in sweat. He trembled again when he caught sight of the wound-laden Rowena, turning away to run.“Don’t… Don’t go. S-Save me. Send me to the hospital… I… I have money, I’ll pay you.”Earlier, Rowena wanted to die, but now that James was gone, her will to live returned.Charles stopped at the mention of money.He weighed his options.James said he would leave Rowena alive before he left. If he left and Rowena died, he would have nowhere to run if James decided to blame him for it. Besides, if he saved Rowena, he’d get money for it.With that

Hector did not know why Rowena was so terrified.However, he knew that Rowena had figured out the identity of their father’s murderer. It was the same person who murdered the other heads as well.One family, in particular, popped up in his mind.The Cadens!There was only one family who had bad blood with the Xaviers as well as the Zimmermans, Wilsons, and Frasiers.It was the Cadens, who were destroyed ten years ago!He did not ask further questions or say anything else, turning to leave instead.Lying on the bed, Rowena was in despair.All she wanted was for the Xaviers to reclaim their power.Now, she knew that it was fruitless. She should be counting her blessings that her family was still alive.“The Black Dragon is terrifying. He’s trying to get rid of The Great Four once and for all. I get it though. Based on what happened ten years ago, anyone else would have a hard time putting it behind them too,” Rowena mumbled hopelessly.Simultaneously, the Blithe King was in a

“Jamie.”Thea strode forward, taking his hand. She looked apologetic. “I’m sorry for what I said last night. I might have been too harsh with my words. Where did you go?”“I was at Henry’s.”“How dare you show up, you worthless b*stard?” Tommy approached with his nose in the air, looking at James with contempt. He then glanced at the car with no license plate. It was a multi-purpose vehicle featuring a logo he had never seen before. Dismissively, he said, “You’re not thinking of driving this to the military region, are you? It’s so embarrassing. And you…”He pointed at David. “Look at your car! You’re an embarrassment to us!”Howard approached, studying David’s and James’ cars. Coldly, he said, “How mortifying. You’d better not take these cars at all. Check if you could hitch a ride in someone else’s car. If grandfather did not say that all family members must be present, I wouldn’t want you there at all. You’d only be an embarrassment.”“All the cars are full. No one would have

They were familiar with the invitations.There were different types of invitations. The ones released to the public were usually standard spots, only allowing attendees to stand right at the back. However, a special guest was different. A special guest was entitled to a seat right in front!Lex’s special guest invitation shocked many.“The Callahans are just a second-rate family. How did they snag an invitation like this?”“No wonder they made a spectacle out of it. The Callahans were invited as the Blithe King’s special guest.”There was a running commentary on the matter.The Callahans must have been close to the Blithe King.Otherwise, how would they have managed to secure this invitation? Those who were special guests were the really important people. It was simply not enough to be rich.“Mister Callahan, it’s you. How have you been?”“Lex, my friend. I haven’t seen you in years. You’ve never looked better.”Upon seeing the invitation, plenty of important people greeted L

The lieutenant had just saluted Lex, so why did he throw Lex out the next second?The Callahans stared blankly when they saw this, not knowing what to do.“How dare you fake an invitation from the Blithe King? We’ll release you since you’re a first-time offender. Otherwise, you’ll be executed,” the lieutenant said coldly.Lex ignored his aching body. He stood up pitifully and looked at Stefon. Loudly, he said, “Stefon, help me. The Western Border soldiers delivered the invitation to us in person because of you.”Stefon wanted to wash his hands clean of Lex as soon as he heard that Lex had a counterfeit invitation. Immediately, he said, “Don’t go making any accusations, Lex. What has your fake invitation got to do with me?”Lex panicked, looking around for someone else to help him. His eyes landed on Colson, walking over to him pitifully. He grabbed Colson’s hand and begged, “Colson, say something. Please help me.”Colson panicked as well.How would he know what was going on?An
