    Chapter 211


    Holding the key in his hand, James scrutinized it.


    “What does the treasure chest unearthed from the ancient tomb of the Prince of Orchid at the border of


    the Southern ins have to do with the Moonlit Flowers on Cliffside’s Edge?”


    James muttered silently.


    He believed it was not a coincidence that Scarlett had bumped into him while having the key on her.


    He had been trailing a murderous intent he sensed when he encountered Scarlett. However, the


    murderous intent disappeared when he reached the underground parking lot. It was there where he


    met Scarlett.


    He was sure she was not the one with the murderous intent.


    James believed someone else had arranged for it. He had been watching on the sidelines since the


    beginning of the grave robbery. He exterminated everyone and instructed Scarlett to bring the key to


    Cansington and to allow the box to be carried away all over the ce.

    Whew!


    James took a deep breath.


    The first step to getting to the bottom of this was to locate the box. By opening the box and finding out


    what was in it, he would understand its rtionship with the Moonlit Flowers on Cliffside’s Edge.” After


    contemting for a while, James spoke, “Mr. Quinn,” “Yes, James?” Newton nodded.


    James continued, “You’ve been by my grandfather’s side for decades. Even after the incident, you


    returned to bury the Cadens even though you risked getting caught. Since I didn’t reward you with


    anything, I’ll offer you the businesses that used to belong to the Cadens.” “I can’t ept your gift,


    James.” Newton stood up immediately and hurriedly waved. “James, this is too big of a gift. I cannot


    ept it.”


    James lightly waved and interrupted Newton, “To me, money isn’t everything. But it’s different for you.


    You have a family to feed, after all.”


    “I…”


    “Alright now, you can bring your family to Cansington. After that, you can officially take over the former


    businesses of the Cadens from the Great Four. The Cadens were once the most influential family in


    Cansington and had abined wealth of fifty billion dors. These should be enough for the rest of


    your life.”


    “T – Thank you, James.”


    Now that Newton knew of James’ identity as one of the fivemanders and that he was not in dire


    need of money, he epted his offer.


    “Mhm. You may return first. Go to Henry at Common Clinic on Nine Dragons Street if you ever need


    anything.


    “Yes.”


    Newton stood and bowed at James.

    Serena then followed suit.’


    After that, they left the House of Royals. Outside the House of Royals, Serena had a look of longing on


    her face, “Grandpa, is James really the ck Dragon? The ck Dragon General of the Southern


    ins?” Newton nodded. “He should be the real deal. Who besides the ck Dragon would be


    capable of convincing the Blithe king to mobilize a hundred-thousand strong army?” “Grandpa, are we


    really going to take over the former businesses of the Cadens?” Newton momentarily froze. “Not quite.


    We’re just helping James manage them.”


    “Oh.”


    Serena turned to have a glimpse of the House of Royals behind her. “James, ck Dragon…” She


    muttered silently. At the House of Royals, James was smoking cigarettes on the sofa. Henry asked,


    “James, what should we do next?” James’ face darkened. Though he had avenged his family, he still


    did not know who the main culprit behind the incident was. He also did not know the whereabouts of


    the Moonlit Flowers on Cliffside’s Edge.


    He thought about it and said, “Urge Jake Graham to speed up his intelligence gathering. I want to know


    the whereabouts of the treasure chest that had entered the antique market in Cansington as soon as


    possible.” “Roger that.”


    “No need to hurry. Today’s the Mid-Autumn Festival. You’re an orphan too. Let’s go out and have a


    drink, just you and me.”


    “James, aren’t you going to apany Thea?” “Thea had gone to the Cahans’ vi. I sneaked out to


    deal with the problem when the opportunity presented itself. It’s still early. Let’s go.” Jamac ctnnd vin
