Chapter 198


    James drove his electric motorcycle to the Cahans’ vi.


    As soon as he entered the house, he saw the antiques and paintings scattered on the floor.


    Lex sat on the sofa and smoked his tobo. Apart from a few core members that were seated,


    everyone else was standing.


    James walked in and pretended to be surprised. “Oh? I thought you were having your eightieth birthday


    in the House of Royals? Why’re you all at home? What’s going on?”


    He saw Wendy sitting on the sofa while crying. “What’s the matter, Wendy? Where’s your deputy


    captain husband, Brody? Why don’t I see him here?”


    James said and deliberately looked around.


    The Cahans had very ugly-looking expressions.


    They were extremely provoked by James. However, they required James’ help and could not scold


    him. Tommy uttered softly, “James, don’t you have an unusual rtionship with Xara? Since she’s


    working for Ms. Brooks now, could you get her to ask Ms. Brooks to forgive the Cahans?”.


    “Huh?”


    James walked over and sat down beside Thea.


    Thea moved away and kept a certain distance from him.


    “What happened?” James asked while pretending to be confused. He nced at the family members


    However, everyone remained silent.


    “How am I supposed to help if you guys aren’t telling me what’s the problem? Tell me, Thea?”


    Thea looked at James and exined, “Today at the House of Royals…” She told him everything that


    happened in the House of Royals. “Haha!” Jamesughed out loud. “You guys were boasting about


    some general’s secretary and deputy captain of some specialized police unit. I can’t believe I really


    jinxed them! They’re really going to get kicked out of the military. It serves them right! This is karma!”


    Everyone had very dissatisfied expressions.


    Howard said indifferently, “You’re also part of our family, James. How could you be fueling the mes


    right now?”


    “So what if I want to fuel the mes? You can’t stand me? Alright, I’ll leave.”


    James stood up and was about to leave. Thea suddenly tugged him and pleaded pitifully, “James,


    please help. I’m begging you.”


    James looked at Thea and said, “Thea, your cousin and I really are innocent. It wasn’t what it looked


    like. I only love you. I’ll die for you if that’s what you ask of me. Why don’t you believe me?”

    James never had a chance to exin.


    Now, he finally earned an opportunity. “1-1 believe you. Now, could you help the Cahans get out of


    this mess?” “You still don’t believe me, Thea. I’ve already said that I have nothing to do with Xara. It’s


    you guys who should take responsibility for the mess. How is an outsider like me going to get you all


    out of this mess?” James said with a righteous expression.


    James was telling the truth. However, it looked as if he was acting stupid to ask for more benefits in the


    Cahans’ eyes. “State your conditions. I can give you anything as long as it’s not something


    outrageous.” Lex asked indifferently.


    “How about ten million?” Howard asked.


    James shrugged. ‘Ten million?


    ‘Do they think I’m short of money?’


    The entire Transgenerational Group that was worth trillions belonged to him.

    Plus, if he wanted money, he could simply make a trip to the Southern ins and have hundreds of


    billions when he returned.


    The whole family looked at James coldly.


    “Is ten million not enough? How about one hundred million? 1 promise to give you one hundred million


    dors if you resolve this matter and get the Cahans through this crisis.”


    Thea also nced at James expectantly. James felt a tug in his heart just by seeing her tearful


    expression.


    He sat down and reached out to hold Thea’s hand. However, she instinctively avoided him. James was


    embarrassed as he nced at Thea. He said, “Thea, you still don’t believe me. Your whole family


    doesn’t believe me. Do you think I really need money? I just want to prove my innocence to you, but


    you simply refuse to trust me. This mess wouldn’t have happened if you guys just trusted me.”


    “What you’re trying to say is that the Cahans are suffering because we didn’t believe in you? Are you


    the one responsible for this?”


    “Yeah, you’re right.” James crossed his legs and lit a cigarette.


    “I told you from the start that I’ve sorted out everything. I’m the one that made the phone call to get


    Gavin toe to apologize, yet you all foolishly believed that Brody. I told you they’d be packing up


    and leaving the inilitary region. Did you think I was bluffing?”


    The family members exchanged looks with one another.
