James steepled his fingers on his lap and said, “Mhm, I’ll try my best to find Delilah and see if I can use her to get her stepfather to cooperate with us.”
“It’d be best to do that as soon as possible.”
Quincy did not have much to say about the matter.
She just hoped James could get it done quickly.
Orient Commerce was already developing at a blinding pace, and it would be difficult to take them down if it became a massive force.
“I still have other things to do, so I’ll take my leave.”
Quincy picked up her bag on the table and prepared to leave.
She had specifically visited because Thea called, saying James had returned. Quincy wanted to report her progress to him.
“Alright. I owe you a meal when I have some spare time.”
James did not hold her back from leaving.
Quincy turned around and left the house.
After she left, Thea asked, “Have you met with Maxine?”
“Yes. I’ve already met up with her and we chatted for a while.” James nodded, but upon remembering Maxine’s flirtatious behavior, he made a slightly distorted expression.
Thea noticed something was off and asked concernedly, “What’s wrong? Do you feel sick?”
“It’s probably fatigue. I haven’t been able to catch a break recently so I’ve been quite exhausted.”
James made an excuse for his abnormal behavior.
Thea stood up, walked behind James, and began to massage his shoulders.
James leaned back into the sofa and enjoyed her soothing touch.
“By the way, when are you going to Mt. Thunder Pass in the Southern Plains?”
“There’s still a week left, so there’s no rush. I plan to head to Mt. Thunder before that and meet with the sect leader, Jackson, to ask him some questions.”
“What do you need to ask him about?”
“It’s some matters regarding Delilah.”
