Chapter 168


    Xara was daring. She was almost on top of James. A young maiden’s alluring fragrance entered


    James’ nostrils, and he hurriedly turned his body to the side.


    His actions amused Xara, and she burst outughing. “James, are you still shy about this? People say


    you haven’t been doing it with Thea. Could it be you’re still a virgin?”


    James blushed.


    Indeed, he was.


    Ten years ago, he was only seventeen, a teenage boy who had just graduated senior high school.


    He had been in a rtionship with a girl back then.


    However, holding hands was the furthest they went.


    He was then in the army for ten years. His days were filled with special training, ice-cold weapons, and


    the remains of his enemies.


    He did not wish to prolong this conversation. He inhaled the smoke deeply, threw the cigarette bud into


    the trash can, and made his way back into the house.


    Thea, who had seen James by the stairs with Xara’s arms wrapped around him, ran away in tears.


    The moment she entered her room, she burst out crying.


    She had thought that James was a good man.


    To think he would be identical to all the other men out there. He had only met Xara today, yet the two


    were already hooking up. Knock, knock, knock! Knocks sounded from the other side of the door.


    Thea hurriedly wiped her tears and took a deep breath to calm herself down. Then, she went for the


    door.


    James walked in and asked, smiling, “What are you doing? You’re taking quite some time.” However,


    Thea said nothing. She headed straight toward theptop, sat in front of it, and stared at the screen.


    James did not notice anything out of the ordinary He consciously took a mat out and ced it on the


    floor.

    Thea felt aggrieved watching his actions.


    He might be ying the gentleman in her presence, but he was hooking up with another woman


    behund her back.


    Worse still, that woman was her cousin. She shook her head, trying to shake the messed-up thoughts


    off her mind. However, she could not forget the image of Xara clinging onto James flirtatiously with her


    body on top of him. The scene was etched in her mind. It lingered no matter how much she tried to


    forget it. ‘Did he hook up with someone else because I didn’t let him have his way with me? He’s a


    man, after all. He has his needs.’ Thea was deep in thought. She thought it was her fault James went


    looking for another woman.


    However, deep inside, she felt bitter.


    It was not as if she forbade him from having his way with her. He voluntarily slept on the floor. She had


    hinted at him multiple times, but he was unresponsive.


    As she thought about this, bitterness filled her heart At that moment, she thought about divorcing him.


    She would divorce him and wish him the best with Xara.


    “James….”


    “Uh huh?”


    James, lying on the mat and deep in his thoughts, recollected himself and asked, “What is it?” Thea


    turned to face James, who was now sitting, with a grim expression. “What do you think of my cousin,


    Xara?”


    “Huh?” James was confused. He could not read between the lines. He was in the army for ten years.


    For the past ten years, he had been interacting with his enemies, not women. As such, he was unable


    to read their minds. He instinctively nodded.” She’s cool.”


    Upon hearing this, Thea was disappointed.


    She wanted to save their marriage.

    She could still remember James bringing her to the House of Royals and the way he meticulously took


    care of her after marrying into the Cahans.


    He would put her to bed at night and bring her out to sunbathe during the day. She had never


    experienced such care and warmth.
