Chapter 492
Jay could not do anything but obey his orders. He had to listen to James or he’d be a dead man. He needed to use all of his resources to investigate this Doctor King and provide James with a detailed report before nightfall.
After ending the call, James headed to Common Clinic.
May was now May Caden. Her identity was James’s distant cousin. May sat on the chair with her hands cupping her face, staring blankly into the distance. When James arrived, she quickly got up and greeted him with a big smile, “Hi, James!”
She looked more like a sweet neighbor girl and nothing like a cold blooded killer.
“Hey.” James sat down beside her.
“How are your injuries?” May smiled as she answered, “These are nothing. I’ve been in rougher shape during previous missions. I might be fully recovered in a few days.”
James nodded, “Focus on your recovery. From now on, the situation in Cansington is only going to get messier. I’m worried that our enemies will start getting antsy and attack my wife. Your mission will be to protect her.”
James understood, that many people were scheming for his downfall since he resigned and went to Cansington.
Right now, the Callahans’ public enemies were the Oceanic Commerce and the Five Provinces Alliance. God knows how many more dangerous threats lurked out of sight. He needed to make arrangements to ensure Thea’s safety. May was capable, but she was still only one of the SSS-level killers in the Dark Castle.
He needed more experts like her on his side. He could not use the Black Dragon Army to protect Thea.
“May, are you still in contact with the other killers in the Dark Castle?”
“What?”
May was perplexed. “James, what do you mean? Do you still think I’m connected to that organization? I rebelled and left that place. My name is on their blacklist. How could I still be in touch with those killers?” James waved his hand to dismiss her suspicions.
“I’m not suspecting you. I want to hire more killers, that’s all.”
May sighed.
“I haven’t gotten in touch with the Dark Castle killers, and I don’t know what kinds of people those other killers were. They might be office workers, lounge singers, or even construction workers.”
May drew a deep breath. She knew the Dark Castle was an intricate and complicated organization
