Chapter 780
He stood up, took the book, and uttered softly, “Thank you.”
Quincy smiled. “I know you’ll miss this book, so I brought it over for you.”
“Thanks….”
James nodded lightly and looked at her apologetically. “I’m sorry…”
Quincy’s pretty lips were curved in a smile as she waved off his apology, saying calmly, “It’s
make.” okay. It really is. I already told you that I’d respect whatever decision you
She let out a small sigh. “Thea has it pretty rough. The whole world turned against her after her face got burned. Even her own family despised her. Finally, everything was starting to look good for her, but she ended up getting poisoned. I wonder what will happen to her once the venom takes effect.”
Quincy could understand both Thea and James’ situation.
It was partly her fault for harboring selfish desires.
James would not be on the fence if she had not interfered back then.
“To be honest, I don’t want to continue this relationship with Thea anymore.”
James looked down and said, “Emperor will continue to target me as long as the both of us are alive. Being with her will only complicate things and make it dangerous for her. I never expected her to resort to suicide to get me back.” 1
“So, what are you planning to do next?” Quincy tilted her head as she looked at James.
Although she was unaware of the particulars of James’ plan, she knew they had something to do with the Emperor, the political factions, and the following year’s election.
James simply shook his head with uncertainty. He had not hashed out the finer details of his plan yet.
“I’m just taking it one step at a time.”
“Let me know if you need any help.”
“Mhm. I will.”
“Then, I won’t stay to bother you. I’ll head back to my place and rest.” Quincy waved her hand and walked away.
James did not get up to send her off. Instead, he sat down and stared at the medical book in a daze.
“I heard about what happened at Mount Dragon Treasure. Are you alright?”
