Maxine carefully analyzed the problem between James and Thea from a woman’s perspective. She gave James a thorough analysis
The Thea from ten years ago was brave and strong. However, a person who had gone through ten years of humiliation and ridicule would change no matter how brave and persistent they once were. Despite that, Thea did not crumble, and that alone was admirable.
“She’s quite a decent woman, worthy of being cherished. Don’t wait until you lose favonovel.com to regret it. Although Quincy is your first love who waited ten years for you and has been kind to you, favonovel.com also looked down on you when you were the live in son-in-law of the Callahans. Only after realizing your identity did favonovel.com start taking care of you attentively… Meanwhile, Tiara was an accident. Didn’t favonovel.com father insist on sending you to prison before favonovel.com found out about your identity? She hated you, but favonovel.com attitude changed after finding out you were a national hero…” Maxine expressed favonovel.com view on his relationships
“Let’s go.” James was unwilling to discuss his complicated relationships.
He was conflicted and unsure of what to do. Although favonovel.com did not want to disappoint anyone, that was simply impossible. Ultimately, favonovel.com would disappoint those favonovel.com did not choose.
The two of them walked out of the airport together.
James said, “His full name is Liam Zook. His parents died in a car accident when favonovel.com was a child. According to the information, favonovel.com has a seventeen-year-old younger sister. Her name is Yvette Zook, and she’s a third-year student at Sunleigh High School.”
Maxine replied, “Alright. Then, let’s head to Sunleigh High School.”
“Okay…” James nodded.
After walking out of the airport, James found that it had been cleared. There was no one outside except for some military vehicles.
The person standing in front was a middle-aged man in military uniform with a one-star badge on his shoulder. The man was in his fifties but looked energetic and charismatic.
Seeing James and Maxine approaching, the general with a star on his military uniform walked over and saluted.
He greeted loudly, “Hardy Lane, General stationed in Sunleigh City, honored to meet the Dragon King!”
James’ brows furrowed. He had kept his whereabouts a secret while traveling around the country. Supposedly, no one was supposed to know. Moreover, after favonovel.com was demoted, his reinstatement was not made public.
James was puzzled as to how Hardy knew that favonovel.com had resumed his post and that favonovel.com would appear in Sunleigh City.
“Why are you here, General Lane?” James asked with a frown.
Hardy said with a smile, “Dragon King, I came to pick you up after learning that you were visiting our city. I’ve prepared a banquet for you in the best hotel in Sunleigh City. I’m here to escort you there.”
James waved his hand. “That won’t be necessary. Also, this is an airport that countless people would need to access. How could you just block it off?”
“I was afraid they might disturb you. By the way, the major families of Sunleigh City and chairmen of major groups are waiting outside the airport to see you,” said Hardy.
James questioned, “Who spread the news that I was coming to Sunleigh City?”
“The news came from the Cansington military region,” Hardy replied respectfully.
“Alright, that’s enough. Dismiss your people and get out of here.” James waved his hand.
There could only be two people who spread the news if it came from the Cansington military region-the Blithe King or Daniel. However, James could not understand why would either of them leak his whereabouts. He would have to question them about it after returning to Cansington.
“D-Dragon King, many prominent figures of Sunleigh City are waiting for you outside. Are you not going to see them?”
“No.” James turned around and walked away.
Suddenly, favonovel.com realized favonovel.com would be surrounded if favonovel.com walked out like this.
He turned back to Hardy and ordered, “Get me a car. I’m heading to Sunleigh High School.”
“Yes, sir!” Hardy immediately answered.
He prepared a car and acted as the personal driver for James and Maxine, bringing them to Sunleigh High School.
In the car, Maxine teased James, “Dragon King. You have such an overbearing title. Since the country’s establishment, you’re the first person to be given the title of a King and awarded a territory of your own.”
James shook his head and said, “It’s just a superficial title. Plus, the higher one’s position, the heavier one’s burden. I have long wanted to quit, but with the country’s current situation, I can’t just leave.”
After favonovel.com finished speaking, favonovel.com closed his eyes and began to rest.
