NovelEnglishChapter 201 “No way. Is Thea that influential now?”
“Even if the Cadens were a powerful family, they are now long gone. Why would they make an effort to
curry favor with Thea?”
“In my opinion, Grayson from the Gourmand must’ve taken an interest in her.” Upon hearing this,
Thea’s face reddened. She refuted the thought, “D-Don’t spout nonsense.” “Thea, Bryan Grayson is
part of the Grayson family from the Capital. It’s a good thing he likes you. In my opinion, you should
divorce James. That trash only leeches off the Callahans. Though he has no abilities whatsoever, he
boasts non-stop.” The Callahans, once again, tried to convince Thea to divorce James. James had an
exasperated look. Now that the scar was gone, they had forgotten about the pain. Besides, the scar
was still here. Thea glanced at James and said, “I married him, so I’m his wife. We may have had some
misunderstandings in the past, but we’ve resolved those issues. I’m willing to give him another
chance.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJames felt a sense of warmth growing in his chest upon hearing her words. He could not help but grab
Thea’s arm. “Darling, you’re the best.”
“Alright, now.” Lex stood. “Since Thea’s able to make a reservation at the Gourmand’s Diamond Room,
we should go and prepare our gifts. We need to ask for Ms. Brooks’ forgiveness this time.”
Thea went and made a reservation for a Diamond Room.
Soon, it was noon.
James had wanted to join in on the feast. After all, the Gourmand was the most luxurious restaurant in
Cansington, and the quality of its cuisine was first-class.
However, the Callahans were against this.
They were worried James might have a slip of the tongue and accidentally offend Scarlett. After all, he
was prone to boasting non-stop. As such, James had no choice but to comply.
He returned home early while the Callahans made their way to the Gourmand.
Upon returning to the Callahan residence, he sat on the sofa. He was at ease. ‘I feel much better now
that I’ve dealt with all these problems. They’re worlds worse compared to fighting a war?
James remained at the residence for several hours before the Callahans returned,
The door opened, and the Callahans walked in, talking and laughing away. “Thea, I didn’t know Ms.
Brooks was so forgiving. She waived our thirty billion-dollar debt
just after sharing a single meal with us.” “Xara, how did you get into the Group in just a few days?
You’re even acquainted with Ms. Brooks. You’ve made us proud.” Xara walked close behind the
Callahans. Xara played a part in helping the Callahans avert their crisis by inviting Scarlett out for a
meal. As such, the family was showering her with praise. Xara said with a smile, “I came to Cansington
looking for work. Coincidentally, the Group had just been established and was on a hiring spree. I went
for an interview to try my luck and bumped into Ms. Brooks along the way. I didn’t know she was the
chairman of the Group back then. We conversed a little, and I was summoned into the room when the
time came for the interview session.” Thea smiled. “I genuinely thought it was James who introduced
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmyou to the job.” “He…”
Xara paused and said, “There’s no way a useless man like him could find me a job, not to mention one
in the Group. How would he be capable of doing so? Though I have to say, Thea, nothing’s going on
between us.” “Alright, I trust you.” James stood with a smile. “Since you guys are back, I suppose
you’ve dealt with the problem?” Thea nodded. “Uh-huh, everything’s settled.” Upon seeing the ashes
on the table, David yelled, “James, who allowed you to smoke in the house? The table’s full of ashes
now!” Gladys rebuked him as well. “Clean them up now.”, “Got it.” James did not talk back. He swiftly
cleared the ashes beside the ashtray. Upon witnessing this scene, Xara frowned. The Callahans were
ordering the behind-the-scenes owner of the Group around. At that moment, she could not help but be
envious of Thea’s luck. How great would things be if she had been the one to save James ten years
ago?
