Chapter 1939


    "You kidnapped James’ child?”


    Both of them were baffled.


    After a few seconds of stunned silence, Cynthiaughed. "Maxine, you''re joking, right? Why would you


    kidnap James’ child?"


    Maxine cast a nce at Cynthia. As she looked over, Cynthia simply felt chills all over her body, like


    she was in an abyss.


    Maxine''s stare was frightening. Cynthia had never seen her like this before. She backed up a little,


    taking a few steps.


    Maxine said nonchntly, "That''s right. I kidnapped James’ child. I did so much for him. I worked in the


    public eye and rose to be the head of the Cadens. I assisted him wholeheartedly. Regardless, he


    decided to live in seclusion with Thea."


    She spoke softly as if she were talking about a trivial matter, but her words wereced with resentment


    and displeasure.


    After hearing that, they were both stunned. For a while, neither of them said anything.


    The atmosphere in the room was a little unusual.


    Then, the doorbell began to ring.


    "I-I''ll go open the door." Cynthia gathered herself and quickly walked toward the entrance. She opened


    the door and saw that it was James. She looked at James and called out to him, "James."


    James had rushed over here. As soon as he entered the house, he could not help but ask, "Has


    Maxine arrived?"


    "S-She’s here,” said Cynthia.


    She wanted to alert James that Maxine was being a little odd. However, James had already entered the


    house in a hurry after learning that Maxine had arrived.


    When he was in the living room, he saw Maxine seated on the sofa. She was the same, just as


    gorgeous and charming as before. Nheless, the moment James saw Maxine, the anger in his heart


    swelled up.


    However, he stifled it.


    Winnie was currently not in Cansington. If he flew into a rage, Maxine would be angered. It would be a


    problem if she hurt the child.


    He remainedposed as he walked over and sat across Maxine.


    "I''m here."


    Maxine looked at him with a calm expression. Her face was devoid of any emotion. What she was


    thinking about was unclear.


    James took a deep breath, nced at Maxine, who had a serene expression on her face, and forced a


    smile. He said, “It''s been a while, Maxine. Are you alright? I''ve heard that you built a Floret Pce. I


    wanted to pay you a visit and catch up, but I’ve been extremely busytely. I couldn''t find the time.”


    “Really?” Maxine countered calmly, "Did you really want to stop by and catch up with me?"


    "Mhm. Really." James nodded solemnly.


    If he could establish a cordial rtionship with Maxine right now, he would do just that. He would use


    as many kind words as he could, even if they were against his conscience.


    As long as his child could be safe, nothing else mattered.


    "I''ve also heard that you''re with Sky and have be the Tacriyrus’ Chancellor, assisting Sky in


    managing Tacriyrus. Congrattions,” James said with a smile.


    However, when he said that, Maxine''s expression changed immediately. Her face darkened and she


    asked coldly, "James, what do you mean by that?"


    James was stunned. He did not know what he had said wrong.

    After giving it some thought, he said, "Maxine, I didn''t mean anything by that. Let''s stop talking about


    this. Let''s talk about the state of the future. You''ve always been smart. Right now, the apocalypse is


    approaching. I went back to live in the Southern ins and established Dragonville to create a peaceful


    country for humanity. Previously, Thea even asked me toe over to you and ask for your


    assistance.”


    Maxine took a deep breath. She forced herself to calm down. Then she asked, "By the way, where is


    Thea exactly?"


    James’ expression became somber. He said, "I really don''t know where Thea is. She''s been missing


    for six months. During thest six months, I''ve sent people out to find her, but even after searching


    everywhere in the world, I couldn''t find her."


    James lied.


    “Really?” Maxine looked skeptical.


    "Mhm. Really." James nodded and said, "After the child was born, she came to meet me at Mt. Thunder


    Pass and we cultivated together for six months. We had a fight, then she left and never showed up


    again. I really don''t know where she is right now."


    Cynthia and Tiara were standing off to the side, listening to the two''s simple conversation.


    They both looked at each other, but neither of them spoke. They did not know what had happened


    either.


    James had entered the house for quite some time.


    However, he never mentioned his child. Instead, he talked about the rtionship between him and


    Thea. He talked about fights and breakups and other things along those lines.
