James left after he saved Cynthia.Normally, he was not someone who would save a stranger.He just thought Cynthia had no malicious intent toward him, and that’s why he helped her.When Cynthia dragged him away from Luther who threatened to cut off his legs, he knew she was a good person.With that settled, James set off to another restaurant.Cansington, Medical Street.Stefon brought Colson to see several experienced doctors.Every one of them shook their heads, with no clue on how to handle Colson’s condition.“Dad, this can’t be happening to me. I’m not married yet. I haven’t had enough chances to indulge myself. I want to sleep with more women!” Colson was on the verge of tears.Last night, no matter what he did, he was not able to prompt a reaction from the organ between his legs. Not even his celebrity bed partner was able to help him.Stefon was concerned too.None of the doctors they visited knew what to do.“Colson, if Solean medicine doesn’t work, we can try western medicine
James could not be bothered to intervene further. He decided to let the Callahans deal with this on their own. He would help them after the medical conference had ended.He returned to his room.Thea was reading a book in the room.“Darling, what are you reading?”Thea put the book down and beamed at him. “I just bought some books to read because I was bored at home.”James nodded approvingly. “That’s great.”James was proud of Thea because she did not give up on herself and continued learning despite her family’s dire situation. Right then, his phone rang, it was an unknown number.He picked it up.“Hello? Who is this?”“It’s me, Quincy.”James frowned upon hearing her voice, “Why? Did anything happen?”Quincy’s yelling voice projected past the phone’s speaker and loudly into the room. “James, is this how you act as an employee? You’re receiving a five thousand dollar basic salary from Transgenerational Group, yet you never show up to work! You’ve worked here for quite a while alread
The secretary was kind.She did not pick on James.To her, James seemed like he was just curious and somehow wandered to the office building of the vice director.“She actually did ask me to come here. You can go check. If you don’t ask her and make me leave, who do you think she will blame in the end?”Janet Autumn had a feeling James was not lying.She scanned James one last time, before she said, “Wait here, I’ll go make sure.”Her heels clicked rhythmically as she walked to the office and knocked on the door, “Ms. Xenos, there’s a salesperson named James Caden. He said you wanted to meet him.”Quincy’s voice echoed from the inside. “Let him in.”Janet turned to James. “Fine, you passed. Go ahead.”James walked toward the office, pushing open the doors.Quincy was the vice president and her office was huge. It was lavishly decorated with around 500 square meters of space.She crossed her legs as she sat on her office chair. She looked at James, and sneered, “Consider an opportunity
”Ms. Brooks.”People addressed her politely along her way only to be ignored by her.She walked to Quincy’s office and knocked on her door.“Who is it?”Quincy was talking to James. She responded in annoyance, “Can’t you see I’m busy here?”“James, it’s me, Scarlett.”They could hear Scarlett’s voice from outside, loud and clear.James grimaced. ‘Why is Scarlett here?’Quincy was initially taken aback. After she exchanged looks with James on the couch, she walked to the door and welcomed her in herself, “Ms. President, welcome. I wonder what brought you here?”Scarlett stepped into her office and stopped right in front of James, ”James, why didn’t you tell me you’re visiting the company? I would’ve welcomed you myself.”“Well…”Quincy was dumbfounded.‘What on earth is this?’‘Why is the president of Transgenerational Group addressing James so affectionately?’‘Who is this guy, really?’Scarlett turned to Quincy, who was still in shock, and said coldly, “Ms. Xenos, you’re a dedicated w
James scratched his nose casually. “Why are you looking at me like that?”“Who the hell are you?”Quincy questioned him again.What happened just now completely changed what she had thought of James.No one would have imagined a man who was willing to marry into the Callahan family, was the hidden boss behind Transgenerational Group. A man who was capable of buying the company in the first place and giving out such a sum of money to start a business empire on a whim.‘How rich is this man?’Quincy could not even begin to imagine.James simply smiled and answered. “I am just James. The guy who married into the Callahan family, Thea Callahan’s husband.”“No…” Quincy resisted, “You’re the Black Dragon, you’re that James Caden.”James corrected her like he was speaking to a petulant child. “Again, Black Dragon is dead. Are we going to talk about anything else? If not, I need to leave now.”James prepared to walk out.“Hold on.”Quincy yelled.James looked at her, smiling mischievously. “Ar
How many people have sacrificed their lives for money since the beginning of time? How was James refusing his offer of ten billion dollars?“Does he have so much integrity that he’s indifferent to fame and fortune?”He muttered to himself.James left Transgenerational. He did not go home. Instead, he visited Henry at the military hospital.Luther left as well.Somewhere in a villa, Cansington.“Miss, he turned it down.”“What? He turned it down?” Cynthia was shocked, her voice reaching 80 decibels. “Ten billion dollars and he turned it down just like that?”“Exactly. I was thinking about it. We’re talking about ten billion dollars here. With his job at Transgenerational Group, his basic salary is a mere five thousand dollars. Coupled with a commission, he could earn a maximum of twenty thousand dollars monthly. Now that the Callahans are bankrupt, he needs the money. Why would he turn it down?”Luther could not fathom it either.“Miss, do you think he doesn’t care about fame
James reached home.Lex and everyone else had finally left.Thea, on the other hand, had changed into a form-fitting dress. She had some light makeup on and even styled her hair. Her usual straight hair was now in curls and waves.She was wearing a v-neck white dress. A delicate chain hung from her neck.It complemented the smooth column of her fair neck well. James could not look away.James looked at Thea, unable to stop himself from asking, “Are you going out, darling?”Thea nodded. “Yes, Xara wants to buy me a meal. Since she’s helped us so much, it’s only right to thank her in person.”James had not eaten yet, so he smiled and asked, “Can I come along?”“Why not?”Thea agreed.“Alright then.”Since James got home, he had not even gotten a chance to sit down before he had to leave again.Both of them left the house together.James drove, leaving their area.“Darling, where are we going?”Thea said, “Joy Hotel.”“Alright.”James tapped to open his navigation app and
Sean did not stop at introducing himself, even giving her a rundown of his family history.Xara was unimpressed.Francis smiled, saying, “Bro, she’s Xara Hill, my girlfriend.”Xara’s face darkened. “Get over yourself, Francis. No one’s your girlfriend here.”“You might not be my girlfriend now, but one day you will be.” Francis was shameless. He said breezily, “Sooner or later, you’ll be my girlfriend.”“Yo, isn’t this Thea Callahan?”Spotting Thea, Sean’s eyes lit up.For a short while, Thea had been famous in Cansington.First, she was known as the most beautiful woman in Cansington. Then, everyone mocked her for having a useless husband. After that, she got engaged to Zavier Watson but broke it off. As a result, the Watsons took revenge on her family and caused them to go bankrupt. Now, they were nobodies.Sean’s gaze lingered on Thea, giving her a slow once-over. He looked satisfied.“Thea, I’ve heard that your family has gone bankrupt. You have a lot of debt to pay. Why
