Chapter 599
James was really grateful to Quincy.
With her help, Thea would finally give up pursuing the Black Dragon romantically.
That way, the possibility of Thea divorcing him would reduce.He thought about it and believed it was not too
demanding
an offer.
“Alright.But only for a day.”
Quincy rolled her eyes and rebuked him.
“Please, are you really that miserable being my boyfriend? I’m still a renowned beauty I’ll have you know.” James
smiled
awkwardly.
“But I’m already married.How am I supposed to explain to my wife if she finds out?”
“Never mind, let’s get going.” Quincy did not push the matter.She grabbed James by the arm and turned to leave.
From afar, they looked intimate with one another— just like any other couple.
James promised her to be her boyfriend for a day.
As long as she did not cross the line, he was fine with it.
Thea, on the other hand, ran out of Majestic Corporation in a sobbing mess.
All this while, she thought that the Black Dragon was in love with her.
That was why he helped her in secret and even helped her earn the title of Asclepius yesterday.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAll her assumptions had filled her with hope.She was so sure of everything.She was even prepared to offer herself
up.
However, what she had witnessed in the office shattered all she had believed in.She felt that her life was
meaningless.
“Why? Why?!”
Tears poured heavily and endlessly out of her eyes.
Devastated, she returned home.
“Thea, why are you back so soon?” Gladys walked over to her.
Upon seeing her crestfallen look, she asked, “What’s wrong? What happened? Weren’t you meeting with the Black
Dragon?”
“Mom, don’t say anything anymore.”
Thea’s eyes were sunken and devoid of all emotions.
Like a deflated balloon, she lay listlessly on the sofa.Gladys sat beside her and asked with concern, “What
happened?”
“Sob…” Thea burst into tears again.
“D-Don’t cry, Thea.Tell me what’s going on.I’ll think of something.”
“T-The Black Dragon…H-He already has a girlfriend.It’s Quincy, my best friend.When I pushed the chairman’s
office’s door open, I saw them making out.They were in the middle of undressing.If I was there a minute later, they
would have…They would have…”
Thea was heartbroken.
“What?!” Gladys gaped with horror.
“He has a girlfriend?”
After she composed herself, she grabbed Thea’s arm and consoled her.
“Thea, you can’t give up. So what he has a girlfriend? Even if he’s married, there’s the possibility that he could
divorce her
as well.Believe in yourself.Do your best to win him over with your charm.”
“Mom” Thea was tired.
“What do you mean by winning him over? It’s Quincy, my best friend, we’re talking about.How could I stoop so low?
Besides, I haven’t even divorced James yet.If word spreads about me pursuing a man who’s been taken, I’ll be
humiliated.” “Silly girl, what are you talking about? How would you be humiliated? He’s the Black Dragon, the
guardian of Sol.Even if he resigned and is no longer one of the five commanders-in-chief, he’s still the perfect man
for countless women.If you don’t make a move on him, others will.Do as I say.There’s no way I’m wrong about this.”
Gladys sought to convince Thea.
“Since they aren’t married anyway, you still stand a chance.Even if they are married, it’s no big deal.Mistresses are
the
norm nowadays.”
Hearing this, emboldened Thea once again.
Indeed, they were not married yet.She still stood a chance.
However being reminded of her circumstances, she was dismayed.She was married to a man who was the

the Black Dragon.
Quincy, on the other hand, had been single all this while.
Most importantly, she was the Black Dragon’s girlfriend ten years ago.
Quincy’s beauty was comparable to hers.
Quincy was also a capable woman.She was already the vice- president of Transgenerational Group at her age.
Thea stood no chance against her.Her only saving grace was that she saved the Black Dragon’s life ten years ago.
“What should I do, mom?” Thea was at a loss.
“Well…”
Gladys fell deep in thought. l . m
Scrutinizing Thea’s looks, she said, “Thea, your beauty is unrivaled.You’re the most beautiful woman in
Cansington.However, despite your beauty, you lack charm.You need to learn how to make use of your beauty to
seduce
men.”
“What are you talking about, mom?” Thea blushed sheepishly.
“Oops, sorry.I meant ‘attract’, not ‘seduce’”
