Chapter 177 “Black Dragon, James, stop screwing around. I’m a busy man, unlike you.” James cleared

his throat. “Henry, redeploy a hundred thousand troops from the Southern Plains.”

“Right on it.”

Upon hearing them sing the same tune, the Blithe King was so enraged that he wanted to smash his

phone.

However, he managed to suppress his anger.

“You win, James. But can you not call me over such a trivial matter? Just call Daniel. He’ll deal with it.”

“Are you trying to say I can call you if it isn’t trivial?” The Blithe King was so irritated that he hung up the

phone. After hanging up the phone, he immediately gave his orders. “Daniel, there’s something I need

you to do for me.”

Daniel could not believe his ears when he received his orders.

Baffled, he left the Blithe King’s office.

At the same time, in Common Clinic, James was relieved after the call.

”Thea, I’d like to see you try. Very impressive of you, Henry. There’s no way I’d have thought of such an

intricate plan.”

Henry’s face twitched. He was merely at his wit’s end. “Alright, now. Snap out of it. Drive me there.”

“Right on it.” Henry recollected himself.

The two walked out, and Henry drove James to the Department of Civil Affairs.

Thea was already at the gates. She stood by the door and waited for James. “Isn’t that Thea

Callahan?” “Yes, that’s her. I saw in the news that she just took over as chairman of Eternality.”

“Why is she in front of the Department of Civil Affairs?”

“Could it be she’s getting a divorce?”

Thea was renowned in Cansington. With her beauty and charisma, she was recognized iminediately by

passers-by as she stood outside the Department of Civil Affairs.

Thea paid no allention to the fingers pointing at her.

She took her phone out and looked at the time. At nine o’clock, she called James again. With a look of

displeasure, she questioned, “What are you doing? Quit your dilly-dallying! Where are you right now?”

“Almost there.”

James hung up the phone.

A few minutes later, James appeared before Thea with a bright smile.

“Thea.”

With a surly expression, Thea turned and walked toward the front gate of the Department of Civil

Affairs.

James pulled her back in time. “What are you doing? Let me go.” Thea wrenched herself from his grip.

James released her and said with a smile, “Thea, I’ve looked at the calendar. Today’s not an auspicious

day for a divorce. Besides, we can’t go through with the divorce proceedings today.” Thea wore a sad

expression. “James, wipe that smirk off your face. Didn’t you want the divorce too? You’ll get to be with

Xara, after all.

“Thea, I swear nothing is going on between us. If I’m lying, may the heavens strike me dead.”

Boom!

At that moment, lightning flashed across the sky. Following that, the sky clouded over. It was about to

rain. “Hmph…” Thea smiled coldly. “James, you better watch your words. You wouldn’t want to be

struck by lightning, would you?” As James lifted his head and saw the overcast sky, his face darkened.

Even the heavens were against him.

“Thea, I can explain. Even if you don’t trust me, why won’t you trust your cousin?”

“Because I know her too well,” Thea said coldly.

“She’s always had a thing for military men. I’m not surprised she went after you after finding out you

retired from the military.”

“What can I do to gain your trust?”

“James, it’s too late. Do we have to go through this again? I’ve given you a chance, but you

squandered it.”

At that moment, a car speeded toward them. A few men got off and entered the Department of Civil

Affairs.

Upon seeing the Blithe King’s men, James sighed in relief. “If so, there’s nothing else for me to say.

Let’s go.”

He beaded toward the building

Thea followed close behind.

“I’m sorry. We’re closed for today. Please come tomorrow.” At the gate, James wore a delighted look.

“Thea, look. Even the heavens are forbidding us from divorcing.”

Thea was baffled.

She watched as people were kicked out of the building. The gates slammed behind them.

She glanced at James. She did not think much of it. “Tomorrow it is then,” she said coldly. After

speaking, she turned to leave. James called out, “Tomorrow’s not happening either.” However, Thea

had already left in a taxi.

James rubbed his chin.

“As long as I’m against this, you’ll never get your divorce.”
