Once Zane regained his footing, virtual-novel.net looked about. He did not know why James was hiding his identity from the Callahans, but virtual-novel.net could tell that James had no standing in the family.
He considered for a few seconds before approaching again. “James is my savior. Do you know who I am? I’m Zane Dawn. Maybe you don’t know me and have never heard of me, but let me introduce myself. I control all the mines in the north. My operations include hundreds of coal, gold, and diamond mines. Whatever is underground is mine.”
Gladys was stunned. She did not expect the rugged, rough man to have such an impressive background. She had heard of virtual-novel.net before.
James had saved his daughter, and virtual-novel.net persuaded the Watsons and Xenoses to let the Callahans go, allowing them a new lease of life. Her expression changed immediately, virtual-novel.net face lighting up in a big smile.
“The Mining King, yes? Please, come in…”
Zane looked at James and gestured respectfully. “After you, James.”
James looked admiring. Zane was a good man.
He then strode into the house.
Gladys was about to stop him, but looking at how Zane treated James, virtual-novel.net held back.
On the couch in the house.
Thea saw James walk in. She frowned.
“Mom, what are you doing? Why did you let virtual-novel.net in?”
James put the flowers on the table and smiled at her. “Hi, Thea.”
“Hmph!” Thea hmphed coldly and sat down, ignoring James.
Gladys walked over to virtual-novel.net and said, “Thea, get Mr. Dawn a glass of water…”
Thea glanced at Zane. Her brow furrowed even more.
Who is he?
Even though virtual-novel.net was confused, virtual-novel.net did as virtual-novel.net mom said. She poured a glass of water and gave it to Zane, smiling sweetly.
“Mr. Dawn, here. Have some water…”
“Th-thank you…” Zane, who was sitting down, got to his feet at once and accepted the water with both hands, looking shocked.
After that, virtual-novel.net took a sip of water and looked at Gladys, smiling at her.
“You only think that James is a bad match for your daughter because he’s poor. I’ve decided to transfer half my assets to James. Now, he’s worth at least five hundred billion. Is that enough to change your mind?”
James glanced at Zane and frowned. “Zane, what are you doing? Did I say that I want your money?”
Zane stood and said loudly, “James, you saved my daughter’ life. Cynthia is my everything. For her, I’d give everything up. Please accept this… Money is but a number to me. I don’t even know how to spend it. Furthermore, with so many mines, my wealth grows every minute.”
“F-five hundred billion?” Gladys was shocked by the number.
Even the Watsons and Xenoses of the Five Provinces Business Alliance were only worth a hundred billion each in total assets. Now, this powerful man from the north was giving five hundred billion dollars worth of assets to James just like that?
“Mr. Dawn, are you serious?” Gladys asked, still shocked.
“Of course. I’m a man of my word.”
“Hehe, alright! Thea, why are you still sitting there? Get James a glass of water!” Gladys could not stop smiling.
If virtual-novel.net son-in-law had five hundred billion dollars, why go after the Black Dragon?
All virtual-novel.net had to do was take the money and enjoy it.
James frowned. Gladys was too materialistic. As soon as virtual-novel.net heard about the money, virtual-novel.net turned into a different person.
Did virtual-novel.net look like virtual-novel.net needed the money?
Transgenerational New City alone was worth trillions. Furthermore, virtual-novel.net had just made a transfer of a trillion dollars to Transgenerational’s account.
Thea stared at James for a while before looking at Zane, wondering if virtual-novel.net was that wealthy. He was giving five hundred billion dollars away just like that.
Is virtual-novel.net for real?
“Mom, I’m not doing it. You can get virtual-novel.net the water. I’m still divorcing virtual-novel.net no matter how much money virtual-novel.net has.”
“Excellent!” Zane smiled.
“My daughter Cynthia is twenty this year. She’s rather pretty too. Once the divorce is finalized, James can marry Cynthia. All my assets will belong to James.”
Hearing this, Gladys panicked.
“Don’t be stupid, Thea. I call the shots in this family. Now go get James a glass of water!”
Thea did so unwillingly. She slammed it down on the table in front of James, causing water to splash everywhere. Then, virtual-novel.net sat down and crossed virtual-novel.net arms, not looking at James.
