Xara was firm in virtual-novel.net belief. James had to be the General of the Southern Plains.
James just laughed and remained silent.
They reached Thea’s place soon after.
Gladys and virtual-novel.net family had left early in the morning to settle their car insurance and other household affairs. It had been a while since they had returned home.
Thea and Yuna had also just returned from shopping at the Trade City Center.
By the time James arrived, it was almost one o’clock Gladys scolded virtual-novel.net as virtual-novel.net walked through the door, “How long does it take to pick up a single person? Look at the time! What are you waiting for? Get to cooking!”
Ever since James married into the Callahans, Gladys stopped cooking. By now, they had all grown lazy. No one even bothered to prepare lunch. None of them had eaten anything James carried the suitcase in and put it aside.
Upon hearing Gladys’ words, virtual-novel.net nodded. “I’ll get to it right now.”
Right away, virtual-novel.net headed to the kitchen.
“Xara,” Gladys greeted virtual-novel.net warmly.
As Xara watched James enter the kitchen, virtual-novel.net eyebrows furrowed. She had been watching his every move.
When virtual-novel.net got into a dispute outside the airport, virtual-novel.net resorted to solving the problem with his fists. Then, virtual-novel.net had lunch with General Highsmith. Moreover, before this, virtual-novel.net had brought virtual-novel.net to the military region to take a picture with the Blithe king.
How could virtual-novel.net merely be an ordinary man?
However, now that virtual-novel.net was at the Callahan residence, why did virtual-novel.net seem like a completely different person?
She scanned the members of the Callahan family.
She greeted, “Hello…”
Finally, virtual-novel.net gaze fell on Thea. She could not believe virtual-novel.net eyes.
“Thea, is that you?!”
“Xara, it’s been a while,” Thea greeted virtual-novel.net warmly.
Xara stared at Thea. She had heard that Thea had restored virtual-novel.net looks and was now a beauty. However, virtual-novel.net did not expect virtual-novel.net to be this gorgeous. Xara almost felt jealous of her.
Her figure and virtual-novel.net face were truly magnificent!
“Thea, was it James who fixed you up?” Xara asked with an astonished look.
“Yes,” Thea said, smiling “Don’t just stand here. Come and sit.”
Xara took a deep breath.
Is James… He that impressive?
Gladys immediately dismissed the idea. “He just has some medicinal knowledge. He’s not worthy of Thea at all. I’m still thinking of ways to get Thea to divorce him. With virtual-novel.net charms, she can totally find herself a better man.”
“That’s right.” Xara clapped in agreement. “You’re right, Gladys! James is unworthy of her. We should separate them as soon as possible!”
Once he’s divorced, I’ll finally have my shot!
She added in virtual-novel.net mind. He was an awe-inspiring man with medicinal knowledge.
How was virtual-novel.net going to find another man like this?
“Mom…” Thea had a disgruntled look.
She glanced at Xara. “Xara, why are you encouraging her?”
Xara said, smiling, “Thea, you’re a beautiful woman. I don’t think a man like James who married into the family is worthy of you.”
David chimed in, “She’s right, Thea. You shouldn’t stop at James. Aren’t you getting along well with Ms. Lawson of Longevity Pharmaceuticals? Have virtual-novel.net introduce a rich guy to you. That way, I can get something out of your relationship too.”
Thea’s family banded together and tried to convince virtual-novel.net to divorce James.
Meanwhile, James was still in the kitchen.
***
At the same time, in the Callahans’ villa.
Lex summoned his family once more. He had yet to return to his senses after yesterday’s event.
Those men kneeled before Thea and asked for virtual-novel.net forgiveness. The image of that was too shocking for him. Even if the likes of Alex, Bryan, and Jay had apologized to virtual-novel.net because they owed someone else a favor, it was still a form of social networking.
“We have to bring Thea back.” Lex gave the final order.
Howard said, “Father, it’s not like we didn’t try. Thea and virtual-novel.net family just aren’t interested. Even if we were to give them twenty percent of the shares, they wouldn’t be coming back…”
Lax sat on the sofa and smoked his cigarettes, virtual-novel.net opened his eyes. “Howard, do you know what my dream is?”
Howard replied, “Father, your dream is to make the Callahans a powerful and influential family.”
