James pulled Thea out of Herbal Biotech.
Outside, Thea was exasperated. “What are you doing, James? How could we accept such a valuable gift?”
“Why not? It’s free anyway.” James was indifferent.
“You…”
Thea pouted.
Then, she took a deep breath. “Sigh… Never mind.”
Once again, she owed the mysterious Mr. Caden another favor.
When she returned to Cansington, she would have to thank him in person and ask him not to look out for her anymore.
Though she was just an ordinary person, she was being taken care of by such a powerful and influential man. Once or twice was fine. However, it was too flattering for this to happen all the time.
After obtaining the thousand-year-old King of Ginseng, James and Thea returned to the Hill residence.
On the way, they received a call from David.
“Where are you, Thea? Cyrus is treating us to a meal. Come, quick!”
“Never mind. I’m not going.”
“Come, quick! He’s treating you specifically to a meal. We’re at the Gastronome, the most luxurious restaurant in North Cansington."
"Alright, then."
Thea hung up the call and looked at James. “Cyrus is treating us to a meal at the Gastronome.”
“Let’s go, then.”
James opened the GPS. After specifying the search location, he drove toward the place.
At the same time, Bjorn left the auction at Herbal Biotech.
He was in a presidential suite at a five-star hotel.
“Damn it all!”
His face contorted with rage.
He was a renowned doctor. No matter where he went, there would always be people currying favors with him. Even though he had presented himself formally to the crowd, there was someone who paid no heed.
Before him stood a respectful middle-aged man. “Mr. Truman, we’ve looked into the background of that guy,” He said.
“Speak.” Bjorn had a murderous look. He said coldly, “Going against me? He must be tired of living. I’ll make his life a living hell.”
“His name’s James. He comes from Cansington and is the son-in-law of the Callahans. The Callahans are an uninfluential family. Their family assets only amount to a billion dollars.”
“Hmph!”
Bjorn clenched his fists.
