James nodded slightly.
Yasmine did not linger for long and hurriedly headed to the underground basement in the courtyard to look for Xavi.
“Grand Patriarch.”
Upon arriving at the underground basement, she lowered her head.
“Is something else the matter?” Xavi asked coldly.
Yasmine said, “Here’s how it is, Grand Patriarch. You ordered me to sell the family’s businesses, but I believed that money was worthless to us. So, I contacted James and informed him of my wish to sell the businesses to him. Here’s what I think—we can give him our family’s lucrative businesses in exchange for the secret of the four paintings left behind by the Prince of Orchid Mountain.”
Upon hearing this, Xavi’s face lit up.
The four paintings left behind by the Prince of Orchid Mountain…
They were passed down a millennium ago. Rumors say that they concealed the secret to immortality.
However, the Lee family’s painting was stolen by none other than Thomas. Xavi would have made his way to the Cadens already if not for the fact that he stood no chance against him. Back then, during the Mount Thunder Conference, not even the combined forces of the three families could defeat Bennett and Tobias. In the end, James showed up and even killed the Johnstons’ family head. Only then did the other three families quiet down.
“I wish to see him in person.”
Xavi stood up and left the underground basement.
In the Lees’ living room…
Quincy was chit-chatting with Xiomara. Meanwhile, James was conversing with Maxine in whispers.
Soon, a fifty-year-old-looking man walked in. He was wearing an ancient white robe with a lifelike dragon embroidered onto it.
“Hahaha… James!”
