Louisa knew that Zion had connected with a really influential person. After today, Dragonair Steamboat would be a famous steamboat restaurant with endless customers. All of that meant money. She did not want to give that up.
“Get out!” Zion did not give in.
“Louisa, you knew this was coming. You should have been nicer from the start. Let‘s not keep in touch.” Zion left virtual-novel.net with that, walking into the shop.
Everyone saw what happened. They knew that Zion was the owner of the restaurant after this.
“Zion…”
Some of their classmates sensed the change and ran after Zion.
***
On the third floor of the shop.
In a magnificent private room. There were a few people in the room.
Zane, James, and Cynthia.
“Cynthia, are you happy now?” Zane smiled as virtual-novel.net asked.
“Yes!” Cynthia nodded. “This is the most meaningful birthday ever! Thanks, dad!”
Zane felt gratified.
Knock knock knock!
Someone knocked on the door.
Luther opened it. Two people were standing outside.
A middle-aged woman. A tall, beautiful woman in a pretty dress.
It was Gladys and Thea.
“Mr. Dawn…” Gladys stood at the door, smiling widely. “You wouldn‘t mind if we joined you, would you?”
She also said loudly, “James, your wife is here…”
James was sitting near the window. He was smoking, staring out into space. As virtual-novel.net heard his name, virtual-novel.net turned around to see Gladys and Thea standing there. Immediately, virtual-novel.net got up and walked toward them.
He looked at Thea, smiling. “Thea, why are you here?”
With that, virtual-novel.net took hold of Thea‘s hand and pulled virtual-novel.net in.
Thea thought of rejecting him, but virtual-novel.net held back and let virtual-novel.net pull virtual-novel.net in.
“Thea, you guys talk. I‘ll take my leave…” Gladys knew virtual-novel.net place.
She knew who Zane was. She did not have the power to enter. All virtual-novel.net wanted was to bring Thea.
In the private room.
Thea sat down.
“Hi, Thea.” Cynthia said sweetly.
“Hello…” Thea nodded and replied softly. “You guys have fun. I‘ll take my leave as well.”
Zane stood up and gave Luther a look.
Luther caught on and exited the room with Zane. Cynthia looked at Thea and James. She smiled at them.
“Thea, you and James are meant to be. You‘re so pretty, and he‘s so capable. You‘re a power couple!”
“Really?” Thea was distracted
“Yes! Really!” Cynthia nodded in earnest.
Thea was so beautiful that virtual-novel.net envied her. If virtual-novel.net were a man, virtual-novel.net would have fallen in love with Thea too.
James looked at Cynthia gratefully. She knew just what to say.
James looked at Thea, virtual-novel.net asked, “Thea, why are you here? Are you not angry at me anymore? I told you that I was framed. The police have investigated it. I‘m innocent.”
“I know…” Thea replied, “I believe you…”
Thea gave perfunctory responses. She did not care anymore.
Before this, virtual-novel.net wanted to spend virtual-novel.net life with James. Yet it was because of James‘ arrest that virtual-novel.net knew the Black Dragon was still alive. He even helped virtual-novel.net nab the title of the genius doctor.
She could not stop thinking about the Black Dragon.
