The Almighty Dragon General novel Chapter 1441

Chapter 1441

“There’s nothing to worry about.”

Maxine continued to gaze at him calmly. “Bystanders are able to see the bigger picture. As someone caught in the game, you’re unable to see the situation for what it is. You’re not the only person in the Capital. Other forces are also present. Whether it be Mr. Lance or Lucjan who’s trying to cause an upset in the Capital, someone will surely step up and take charge of the situation to prevent it from spiraling out of control.”

After hearing Maxine’s words, realization dawned on James.

“You really do have a talent for seeing more clearly than I can. You’re right. What am I worrying about?” Maxine smiled.

She deliberately slid closer to James, leaned on his shoulder, and guided his hand around her waist.

James quickly pulled back his hand. “W-What’re you doing?”

Maxine asked with a flirtatious smile, “Say… Am I pretty, James?”

James nodded honestly, “Yeah. You’re as pretty as a nymph. It’s not an exaggeration to actually call you one.

“Perhaps we could…” Maxine wore a suggestive expression.

“I-I’m just going to take my leave.” James was slightly flustered and quickly backed away.

When she was serious, James felt that Maxine was a great ally to have by his side, but he was afraid of her pushing her limits like this.

He did not know how to respond to her coquettish charms.

“Haha!”

Watching James run off in a panic, Maxine chuckled to herself.

After leaving the house, James sighed in relief.

When Maxine attempted to seduce him, many thoughts he should not have had began flashing through his mind.

James was worried about being unable to hold back if he stayed any longer.

He had already hurt one woman, so he did not want Maxine to experience the same thing.

Moreover, he did not want to disappoint Thea again.

He repeatedly took deep breaths and performed Ataraxia to disperse the messy thoughts clouding his mind.

After calming down, James left but did not head home.
