Roar of the Supreme Warrior novel Chapter 3

None of the Callahans bothered to look for Thea even though she had been gone for ten days.

To the Callahans, Thea was the black sheep of the family and the laughing stock of Cansington. If it were not for Thea, the Callahans’ business would be booming.-

Once Thea had recovered, she picked up her marriage certificate with James and they went home together.

Lex Callahan had three sons.

According to birth order, they were Howard, John, and Benjamin.

Benjamin was shunned by his own family because of Thea. It did not matter that he worked hard, expanding the family business by leaps and bounds.

At home, he did not have any rank, status, or authority whatsoever.

Benjamin might be a Callahan Group manager, but he had no shares in the company. All he got was a fixed salary each month with no bonus. As such, he was struggling to make ends meet.

It was true that he had bought a house, but there was still the mortgage to pay off every month.

“This is my home, Jamie.”

Pointing to the doors, Thea said, “It’s nothing compared to the palace you live in though.”

James took her hand in his and smiled. “Home is wherever you are.”

Thea smiled. Approaching the entrance, she knocked on the door gently.

Gladys opened the door.

She was slightly shocked to see a beautiful girl and an unfamiliar man. She asked, “Can I help you?”

“Mom,” Thea said.

Gladys was stunned upon hearing this beautiful girl call her mom.

“Mom, I’m Thea. Your daughter.”

“What?”

Gladys was shocked. Looking at the girl in front of her, she was confused. “Y-You’re Thea?”

“It’s me, mom. My scars are all gone now.”

“Hi, mom,” James added.

“What?” Gladys thought that she would never recover from all the shocks.

Holding onto James’ arm, Thea said, “Mom, grandfather picked him as my husband.”

Gladys finally responded. She pulled Thea to her side quickly. Coldly, she said to James, “I’ve never acknowledged you as my son-in-law.”

She touched Thea’s smooth face. “Thea, is it really you? You… Your face and the scars and your body… What happened?”

“Mom, I’ve been undergoing treatment for the past ten days. I’ve recovered now, and will no longer be a humiliation to the family,” Thea choked out.

Ever since the incident, she had been an embarrassment to the Callahans, causing them to be the laughing stock of Cansington. Her parents were barely able to show their faces in public.

“My girl…” Gladys hugged Thea, crying. “My girl… It’s my fault. I never should have left you alone to deal with it. You’ve been through so much… Come, let’s go inside.”

She pulled Thea into the house.

Now that Thea had recovered her looks, Gladys had other plans in mind.

With Thea’s beautiful looks, she could marry a rich man instead of a lazy worm who was after the family’s wealth.

She pointed at the door and coldly ordered James, “Get out.”

“Mom, what are you doing? He’s my husband, hand-picked by grandfather!”

“Let’s go to the family villa now. I’ll have the old man call off the wedding himself.”

Gladys wasted no time, dragging Thea with her.

“Jamie…”

Thea turned around to look at James helplessly.

James shrugged, looking like he did not have a care in the world. He merely followed the two women.

The Callahans gathered in the villa’s foyer, looking at the beautiful girl standing next to Gladys in disbelief.

How could she be Thea?

Thea, who was disfigured for ten years?

What on earth happened? How could she have transformed in just ten days?
