Chapter 599
James was really grateful to Quincy.
With her help, Thea would finally give up pursuing the Black Dragon romantically.
That way, the possibility of Thea divorcing him would reduce.He thought about it and believed it was not too demanding an offer.
"Alright.But only for a day."
Quincy rolled her eyes and rebuked him.
"Please, are you really that miserable being my boyfriend? I’m still a renowned beauty I'll have you know." James smiled awkwardly.
"But I’m already married.How am I supposed to explain to my wife if she finds out?"
"Never mind, let’s get going." Quincy did not push the matter.She grabbed James by the arm and turned to leave.
From afar, they looked intimate with one another— just like any other couple.
James promised her to be her boyfriend for a day.
As long as she did not cross the line, he was fine with it.
Thea, on the other hand, ran out of Majestic Corporation in a sobbing mess.
All this while, she thought that the Black Dragon was in love with her.
That was why he helped her in secret and even helped her earn the title of Asclepius yesterday.
All her assumptions had filled her with hope.She was so sure of everything.She was even prepared to offer herself up.
However, what she had witnessed in the office shattered all she had believed in.She felt that her life was meaningless.
"Why? Why?!"
Tears poured heavily and endlessly out of her eyes.
Devastated, she returned home.
"Thea, why are you back so soon?" Gladys walked over to her.
Upon seeing her crestfallen look, she asked, "What's wrong? What happened? Weren’t you meeting with the Black Dragon?"
"Mom, don’t say anything anymore."
Thea’s eyes were sunken and devoid of all emotions.
Like a deflated balloon, she lay listlessly on the sofa.Gladys sat beside her and asked with concern, "What happened?"
"Sob..." Thea burst into tears again.
