Under the watchful gaze of the crowd, James got on a jeep and left.
Thea burst into tears. She crouched down.
Looking at the jeep now far away, virtual-novel.net covered virtual-novel.net mouth while tears flowed down virtual-novel.net cheeks.
At that moment, virtual-novel.net knew virtual-novel.net had forever lost a man who deeply loved and cared for her.
“Farewell, God of War!”
“We‘ll await your triumphant return!”
Only after the jeeps left did the crowd cheer. The commotion outside Cansington Hotel only stopped after ten minutes.
Everyone‘s gaze was fixed on the Callahans.
The Callahans‘ faces were pale. They never thought that the son–in–law of the Callahans would be the Black Dragon. If they had known, they would have buttered virtual-novel.net up.
“W-What‘s going on, Thea?” Gladys questioned.
She was still confused and had yet to recollect herself. “How did James turn out to be the Black Dragon?”
Still, Thea was crying virtual-novel.net eyes out.
“Thea, what‘s going on? J–James is the Black Dragon?” Tommy asked puzzledly.
“Say something.”
“Stop crying already…”
The Callahans pestered her.
“I–I don‘t know. I don‘t know anything at all!” Thea was at a loss.
Her thoughts were disorderly and all over the place. She was in a state of mental confusion. She was in shock. She never thought that the man who had been by virtual-novel.net side was the Black Dragon.
She could not understand.
If James was the Black Dragon, who was the James from Majestic Corporation?
In that case, who was the other James?
At that moment, Quincy walked over to her.
Thea stood up. Tears brimming in virtual-novel.net eyes, virtual-novel.net looked Quincy in the eye, hoping virtual-novel.net would explain.
“You knew, didn‘t you?”
Quincy wore a cold expression.
James was a national hero. To protect Sol against external threats, virtual-novel.net stared death in the face many times. Despite this, Thea had broken his heart.
“Yes, I knew…”
“Why didn‘t you tell me?” Thea grabbed Quincy and shook her.
Her emotions burst forth, and virtual-novel.net bellowed with rage, “I treated you like a sister. Why did you hide this from me? Why didn‘t you tell me James was the Black Dragon all along? Are you playing me for a fool?”
Quincy looked at Thea and said, “What‘s the point? Who do you love, James or the Black Dragon? Neither, I‘d say. You‘re in love with the title of the Black Dragon. No matter who the Black Dragon was, you‘d still be in love with him. James told me that virtual-novel.net could be his true self around you. If you can‘t even accept James for who virtual-novel.net truly is, what‘s the point in telling you?”
Quincy took a deep breath. “Do you think James needs money? All this while, how many crises have you and the Callahans gone through? Every time, the crises would be averted.”
“Why? That‘s because the God of War of Sol is by your side. James was watching over you! Just because you saved virtual-novel.net ten years ago, virtual-novel.net silently watched over you to repay your kindness.”
“And you…” Quincy looked at the Callahans. “Though James helped you out, each of you continued to mistreat him. Is virtual-novel.net trash just because virtual-novel.net married into your family?”
“Who do you think you are? Why do you think James married into the Callahans?”
“Who do you think you are, Thea Callahan? Why do you think James stayed by your side?!”
“You‘re just a nobody. Tons of women would love to marry the Black Dragon. He can get himself a wife anytime virtual-novel.net wants!”
Her every word pierced through Thea‘s heart.
Tommy muttered under his breath, “Why didn‘t virtual-novel.net just say so? If virtual-novel.net had told us virtual-novel.net was the Black Dragon, we wouldn‘t have mistreated virtual-novel.net in the first place….”
He trailed off. He was reminded of the times when virtual-novel.net insulted and humiliated James. It turned out James was being magnanimous.
If virtual-novel.net had wanted to settle the score with him, virtual-novel.net would have been dead a long time ago.
