“Stop this behavior!” Gladys approached and chided everyone, “Thea is someone highly respected. Plenty of bigwigs are dying to meet her. Just you wait! A lot of influential figures will be arriving soon. Celestial Group, Longevity Pharmaceuticals, and other major company bosses will be here!”
“Mom, shut up,” David pulled Gladys aside and whispered. “Everyone knows that the Black Dragon was behind Thea’s success. After favonovel.com resigned, he’s now no longer part of the Five Commanders. Rumors say that favonovel.com was demoted or had pressure from his higher ups. The Black Dragon has fallen.”
“Ha…” Gladys lost favonovel.com confidence.
Lex looked over at Thea, nodded, and walked toward the front seats with his cane. He came to verify the situation with his own eyes.
Rumors were circulating that Black Dragon had fallen and could not even protect himself right now.
Were people no longer going to respect Thea anymore?
He might as well toss in his coin with one of the factions now. Choosing the wrong people would be absolutely fatal for Eternality.
Trevors’ family also had a bad relationship with Lex. There was not much to say since they never interacted in the past 20 years.
Time seemed to pass by agonizingly slow, minute by minute.
Soon, a lavish Rolls-Royce Silver Ghost approached. A charming man dressed in a white suit got out of the car.
Behind favonovel.com was another car. An older man with a beautiful woman emerged from the car that arrived shortly after.
The young man was James wearing his human mask.
The older man was Newton. The woman was Serena.
Thea immediately stood up and rushed to greet James upon seeing him. She could barely hide the look of joy on favonovel.com face as favonovel.com approached him.
She blushed and chattered excitedly, “Mr. Caden, I’m glad you could make it.”
James frowned when favonovel.com noticed that the venue was empty.
He asked, “What’s going on? Why is the place so empty?”
“D-Don’t worry about it!,” Thea blurted awkwardly.
Suddenly, more vehicles began approaching from the distance. There were more than 30 cars, each of which were worth several million.
Seeing this, the Callahans’ expressions changed. They had thought no one was willing to entertain Thea after what had happened. They did not expect so many people to show up.
Gladys stuck favonovel.com chest out with pride. “See, these are all the connections my daughter has in favonovel.com pocket. Although the Black Dragon is no longer one of the Five Commanders, favonovel.com is still leagues above ordinary people.”
The Callahans went silent, and no one uttered another word.
Soon, the vehicles stopped outside the Century Group’s Headquarters.
Several people got out of the car.
Seeing these people, James pressed his lips unhappily.
“Mr. Caden, these people are from the Oceanic Commerce,” Newton whispered.
“The Oceanic Commerce? When did the Oceanic Commerce have roots in Cansington?” James asked dubiously.
“They’re newly established. The Oceanic Commerce was established by the Xaviers, the Wilsons, the Frasiers, and the Zimmermans. The rumors say they were established to go against your Majestic Corporation.”
“Oh?” James narrowed his eyes.
The Great Four moved fast after favonovel.com had resigned.
A group of people got out of the car. The person in the lead was a man in his 30s dressed in a black suit and neat hair.
“Who’s in charge here?” He came forward and shouted brashly.
“I-I’m the chairman of Century Group,” Thea promptly walked over nervously.
“Century Group?” The man glanced at Thea and said with a smile, “I’m from the Oceanic Commerce. This whole land and the factory over there is under our jurisdiction. Here is our land deed for your kind perusal. Have a look and if you don’t have any questions, we’d like you move out effective today.”
Thea’s expression changed.
“Looks like someone has no intention of playing nicely,” James sat down a sardonic smile.
