Chapter 410
The police were dumbstruck by the scene. “W-What power!” “The stage collapsed with a single stomp?”
While the police were rooted in their spots, James got off the stage and approached Gavin. He grabbed him by the collar and inserted a few silver needles into his body.
Gavin immediately collapsed to the floor. His body fell limp. He could not even utter a single word. “Gavin, if you wish to live, beg for forgiveness at the Callahans’ villa. Otherwise, you’ll be dead in three days.”
Saying that, James grabbed Thea and turned to leave.
No one stopped him.
After all, Zavier was lying beside the collapsed stage like a dead dog.
Meanwhile, Gavin was on the floor too. His veins could be seen, and he wore a painful expression. His face was contorted with rage. He wanted to speak but could not even utter a single word.
The grand engagement ceremony had turned into a fiasco because of James’ appearance. Everyone was puzzled.
How did the useless, good-for-nothing James pluck up the courage to assault the Watsons at their place? Was he not afraid of their reprisal?
The Watsons were the representative of North Cansington in the Five Provinces Business Alliance. All they needed was a single order to destroy the Callahans. Only a handful was adopting a wait-and-see approach. They knew James’ true identity. Even though he had resigned and was no longer the Black Dragon… Even though many powerful people wanted him dead, James was still alive and breathing. The Black Dragon, though no longer one of the five commanders-in-chief, was not someone one could mess with.
Although Alex and Yuna were no longer intimidated by James, they would not offend him either.
However, the Watsons were insolent.
Outside the Watsons’ villa…
Thea was still in her white wedding dress. She looked as gracious as a swan. Her eyes were brimming with tears. They flowed down her cheeks. She sobbed. “I’m sorry, James. I’m ashamed of this, but I don’t want my family to fall into ruin. Leave. From today
onward, we’re no longer husband and wife.” She was happy and grateful for all that James had done for her. However, he had offended the Watsons.
She could not leave.
She could not leave with James.
