Chapter 669
Ten years ago, Thea got completely disfigured while trying to save him from the flames.
He had repaid her for saving his life by giving her ten billion dollars. He no longer owed her anything Now, however, he owed another young maiden, As a man, it was only right for him to admit his mistakes. Back then, he was still married to Thea. Therefore, he could not make any promises. Now, after having divorced Thea, he had to return to the battlefield to take charge of the situation.
Looking at Tiara, the young maiden who had experienced fate‘s cruel joke, James gave his assurance.
With his promise, Tiara was now at ease. She knew that James, as the guardian of Sol, would keep his word. “I will wait for you in Cansington. I await your safe return.” James did not stay for a chat. Immediately, he turned to leave and got back into the car. Tiara got off the road, and the jeep continued on its journey. Soon, they arrived at the military region of Cansington. A helicopter was on standby on an empty plot of land.
The Blithe King personally came to see James off.
He patted James‘ back and said, “James, I‘ll leave the Southern Plains to you. I await your triumphant return. We haven‘t been able to have a drink together despite knowing each other for so long. Let‘s drink to our heart‘s content once you get back.”
“Sure thing.”
James said smilingly. Then, he got on the helicopter. “Goodbye, sir!” The soldiers‘ voices rang in unison. “We wish you the best on the battlefield and await your triumphant return.”
The helicopter lifted off. Looking at the city beneath him, James felt wistful. “I wonder if I can return alive.”
