Chapter 402


    Thea wanted to bid James goodbye.


    However, she could not bring herself to do so.


    Now, she had to remain with Zavier and wait till ater time to exin things to James.


    She had no other option. Otherwise, her brother’s life would be in peril, and her family would face


    destruction. James, on the other hand, did not know what was happening in Cansington. He did not


    think much about it either.


    He could not leave as he needed to stay by Henry’s side to monitor his condition.


    Thea called Zavier.


    At the Watsons’ vi at Goodview Vi District, Thea sat on the sofa.

    Before her meeting with Zavier, she had gone home to put on makeup and change into a white,


    revealing slip dress. The smooth and fair skin of her neck and arms were exposed for all to see.


    Meanwhile, Zavier sat by the side and scrutinized her.


    Wearing a satisfied look, he scanned her from head to toe. Perfect… She was a wless woman.


    “Think carefully, Thea. I’m not the one forcing you into this.”


    Thea gently nodded. “M-Mr. Watson, I’ve thought hard about this. My husband’s out on a business trip.


    As soon as he returns, I’ll divorce him and marry you. If you’re dissatisfied with me, I can even be your


    mistress…” Biting her lips, she lifted her head and looked at Zavier. She felt ashamed saying those


    words.


    However, it was the only thing she could do.


    “Please intercede for me and save my brother.”


    Zavier fixed his gaze on Thea. He had seen innumerable beauties in the past and had even dated


    some. Still, he could not help but gulp. He asked, “By the way, there are rumors saying you’ve never


    slept with your husband. Is that true?”


    Thea lowered her head and nodded.


    Zavier was thrilled.


    He did not expect her to be a virgin. What the heck was wrong with James?


    “Fine. We’ll visit Maximus together. Don’t you worry. I won’t make a move on you even after the


    problem is solved. Instead, I’ll let the world know of our marriage, and we’ll have a wedding ceremony.


    I’ll marry you and make you Mrs. Watson.” Zavier had never thought of forcibly making a move on


    Thea.


    He was truly in love with her.


    He wanted to marry her.


    “After our engagement, you can be a housewife. If you wish to venture out into the corporate world, I’ll


    give you a sum of money so you may establish your own business. In any case, you’re free to do


    whatever you like.” “Thank you!”


    Thea took a deep breath.


    She was at the end of her rope.


    She would not havee knocking on Zavier’s door if she had not been pushed to a corner. All things


    aside, Zavier was a good man. Whether it be his family background or his charisma, James was


    iparable to him. “Let’s go.”


    He extended his arm to grab Thea’s hand.


    Thea froze and retracted her arm.

    “Sorry, that was rash of me,” Zavier apologized.


    He was too impatient.


    Thea would be his woman sooner orter.


    He would make her genuinely fall in love with him. “I-It’s alright.” Thea smiled lightly and stood up.


    Zavier brought her to Osmanthus vi.


    It was a vi in the suburbs and a base for Maximus.


    In the basement of the vi, David was tied up in ropes. He was bruised all over his body. Meanwhile,


    Maximus sat on a chair and smoked his cigarette. Seeing the injured David, he smiled. “David, your


    sister will be here with the money in twelve hours. Don’t die before then.”


    David had a few of his teeth knocked out. Though he wanted to speak, he felt excruciating pain


    whenever he opened his mouth. As such, he could only grunt. At that moment, one of Maximus’ men


    walked in and said, “Mr. Watson has brought Thea here.”


    “So soon?”


    Maximus stood up and said, “Get moving.” A man and a woman were seated in the foyer of the vi.


    They were Zavier and Thea.


    Zavier wasposed. Thea, on the other hand, wore an anxious expression.


    Soon, Maximus arrived along with his men. Heughed. “I was wondering who came. So, it’s Mr.


    Watson. I’ll say this, Thea. There’s no use bringing the emperor here. You’ll still have to pay up.” Zavier


    asked, “How much?”


    Maximus answered, “1.6 billion total. For your sake, I’ll just ask for a billion.”


    “I’ll pay. Let him go immediately.”


    Maximus nced at the man beside him and ordered, “Bring him here.”
