The Callahans were shocked by the news that Tommy had shared.
Lex and Howard took out their phones simultaneously and searched for the news.
Their jaws dropped as they watched the morning news.
“Hurry up. Call and gather the whole family. I need to hold a family meeting,” Lex immediately gave an order.
Howard quickly headed to do as told.
In less than half an hour, all the family members were gathered in the Callahans’ villa.
Howard, John, and Benjamin’s families were present.
“Dad, what happened?” Gladys, who had heavy makeup on and wore a branded dress, sat down with dissatisfaction. “I already invited some other ladies to play poker together.”
Since the rise of Thea, Gladys’ status in the Callahans had been growing continuously.
Benjamin’s status had also improved.
In the past, he never had the guts to say anything during family meetings, but this time, he asked, “Dad, did something happen for you to call everyone here?
Lex asked excitedly, “Benjamin, Gladys. Is Thea still with James?”
Gladys shook her head and said, “I don’t know. Thea seldom comes home these days, and I don’t even know what she’s up to. James never shows up, either. Maybe Thea finally figured things out, and they’re separated. The current James isn’t worthy of Thea.”
The Callahans had not watched the news and were unaware of what had happened in the Capital.
Tommy was startled by her words and shouted, “No way! We’re over if she isn’t with James! It’s all over! The Callahans have lost the opportunity to prosper!”
“Huh?” Gladys was startled and looked at Tommy perplexedly.
Even David was confused by Tommy’s behavior and asked, “What are you talking about, Tommy? What do you mean we’ve lost the opportunity to prosper?”
Tommy explained, “James has always been the commander of the Black Dragon Army. Moreover, he’s also the Dragon King! The Dragon King! Do you understand?! He’s the first person to be given the title of a King since the founding of Sol! He reigns over Dragonville in the Southern Plains! He has the final say in the Southern Plains! Now, he’s even been appointed as the Emperor! Do you get it?! The Emperor! He’s also the commander of the Red Flame Army, the leader of the Five Commanders!”
“F*ck…”
David stood up abruptly and stared at Tommy in shock. “Are you for real? Is he that great?”
