Chapter 467 She never got a chance to thank him before he passed away. Joan Dunn was silent, too.
Back when she was a delinquent, and bad at school, James was the one who motivated her to change her life.
He passed away before she had the chance to meet him.
The others in the crowd were also reticent.
Their class monitor had been the Black Dragon all along. The man who went above and beyond for his country, and
fought for her safety but died within her borders. After the memorial, everybody took turns to light their incense.
The entire affair lasted until midday. On their way back, James held Thea and offered her sweetly, “Darling, the
mountain roads are harder to walk on, be careful. Would you like me to carry you?”
“N-no.” Thea blushed. There were so many people around them, how could she say yes? Quincy felt a twinge of

The crew made it back to the villa.
Thea wanted to have lunch at the villa before she went back but a phone call from home derailed her plans.
She was told the Xenoses were attacking the Callahans. This morning, the court froze all the Callahans’s financial
assets and evicted them from their mansion. Their mentioned was repossessed and was to be auctioned off. Thea
related the news to James. James frowned. “Why is this happening? Didn’t you pay all your debts to the Xenoses?
Why are they coming after us now?” Thea shook her head, “I don’t know. Maybe it’s because I offended Quay
yesterday? It might have given him an excuse to act against us now.” Decisively, James said, “We have to go check
it out.” Thea went toward the crowd. james walked to Zion Lawson with a smile, “Zion.” “Oh, it’s you, James…
Flustered, Zion stood up and asked, “Is there anything wrong?” James gave him his number and patted him on the
shoulder, “I have to go back to Cansington. If you have any troubles, call me.”
After that, he turned and left.
He and Thea rushed back to Cansington.
At Thea’s home. Many people gathered here. Including Howard’s and John’s families. Thea asked, “Grandpa, why is
this happening? Why are the Xenoses attacking us?” Lex sighed tiredly. Thea looked at Howard.
Howard did not speak a word.
“What is happening? Can someone please tell me?” Thea was getting anxious. Lex finally broke the silence, “The
Watsons put us in this mess. When we were trying to save ourselves, Tommy somehow got into contact with the
Xenoses and borrowed 500 million. This turned out to be a trap. Now that we owe 500 million in debt to the
Xenoses, they sued us and froze our accounts. The court took away all our cars, and houses.” The Callahans sat
with tightened lips and white knuckles. Gladys quipped, “Dad, our house is small. Why are all these people here?”
She came here to blow off some steam, but their current situation was the only thing holding her back from yelling
at people. James did not expect the Xenoses to act this fast.
He had just met with Quay Xenos yesterday; he wasn’t targeting the Callahans then.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJames asked Thea, “Thea, do you have money on your card?”
Thea shook her head. “No, I used all of it to pay the debts.” “Mom, how about you?” James turned to Gladys. “Me
neither,” Gladys said, “I had a few million before, and all of that went into helping Thea with the debt.”
James looked around at everybody in the house, and he said, “I have some money on mine. Go find a place to
settle down for now. After the medical convention, I will help the Callahans rise from the ashes. By then, the
Oceanic Conference, the Watsons, the Xenoses, or the five provinces… they’ll all amount to nothing.”
“James, can you get a grip on the reality of our situation for just a second!?” Gladys stood up in a fit of rage and
yelled, “We’re all in the same boat. Where the hell would you get the money to help us?” James replied, “This
started because of Thea, and the whole family is in trouble because of everyone’s association with Thea.”
As he spoke, he fixed his eyes on Lex.
“Grandpa, I will transfer one million to you. Find a place to stay in the meanwhile. I will deal with the Watsons and
the Xenoses.”
