Chapter 311


    “How could you lie to me, James?”


    “I’m not. There isn’t much left on the card. Maybe a hundred million?”


    James had a frustrated look


    Was it his fault that he had money?

    Thea snatched the card in his hands and grunted coldly, I’m curious to see how much there is in this


    card.”


    Saying that, she headed to a nearby ATM. She inserted the card.


    “Password?” She turned to look at James, who followed close behind.


    Jarnes replied, “Six eights.” Thea keyed in the password. Upon seeing the number on the screen, she


    snickered. Then, wearing a grim expression, she reproached James, “The bnce is zero. How dare


    you lie to me?”


    James scratched his nose.


    The bnce was indeed zero.


    However, it was capable of withdrawing a hundred million dors


    Besides, he did not have to pay them back.


    The financial department of the country would help him pay for everything Thea pulled out the card and


    returned it to James. Although the bnce was zero, Thea was still delighted. That was because the


    money was obtained through illegal means. She believed it was in James’ nature to boast about being


    wealthy. Well, at least he only bragged and did not acquire the money illegally. The two headed to the


    North Cansington branch of Herbal Biotech. Herbal Biotech was thergest pharmacy in Cansington


    and was established by the famous Dr. Jay Fallon. It was renowned not only in Cansington but all


    across the country. This, of course, included North Cansington.

    The auction held by Herbal Biotech targeted the wealthy.


    That was because the herbs sold were valuable and priceless. Though these precious herbs were


    considered by many to be nothing out of the ordinary, they were lifesavers for the rich who were


    gravely ill.


    Soon, they arrived at the ce. The shop was closed today for the auction, To make the auction a


    resounding sess, Dr. Jay Fallon had brought many precious herbs – including the thousand-year-


    old King of Ginseng – from the headquarters.


    “Thea Cahan?”


    A voice came.


    Thea tumed and saw a beautiful woman and a handsome man heading toward her.


    “Huh?”


    Thea stared at the woman.


    She felt a sense of familiarity.


    However, nothing came to her mind. “Y-You are. ?”


    “Thea, it’s me. I’m Julianna Jacaruso.”


    “Julianna?” Thea was astonished. Julianna Jacaruso was one of her best friends in senior high school


    Her rtionship with Julianna was the same as Quincy’s. They were once the closest of friends.


    Julianna said smilingly, “I heard from Quincy in the group chat that you’ve restored your looks. She


    even posted a picture of you. I couldn’t recognize you when I saw you just now. I was only sure it was


    you after double-checking with the photo.”


    Thea smiled


    Julianna pulled the handsome man by her side and introduced him, “This is my boyfriend. He’s Quay,


    from the Xenos.”


    “Hello.”


    Thea held out her hand. Quay looked at Thea in a daze. He did not loosen his grip even after shaking


    her hands. Thea broke free from his grip and forced an awkward smile. Then, she pulled at James and


    introduced him, “This is my husband, James Caden.” “What? He’s James?” Julianna eximed.


    It was as if she had seen a peculiar object. “I heard from Quincy that he’s the useless son-inw of the


    Cahans. Not only has he been leeching off the family, but he also doesn’t work and has no


    ambition.”
