Thea did not sleep the whole night.
Quincy stayed with her throughout the night.
After dawn, she kept calling James However, James‘ phone was turned off, and she could not get
through, no matter how many times she called
“It‘s already ten o‘clock. Why haven‘t you come home yet?”
Thea paced around the room anxiously.
“Don‘t worry, Thea. James will be fine.”
Quincy had complete faith in James because he was the Black Dragon. He was able to beat the 28-
nation martial arts gurus and a hundred thousand troops. A few assassins were nothing to him.
“Then, why is his phone still turned off?” Thea sat down anxiously and took Quincy‘s hand. “Quincy,
let‘s go to the police,” said Thea. Quincy was speechless. ‘Call the police? ‘Is calling the police going to
be of any use?‘ Although she did not know who captured them and James last night, she could tell from
the conversation between James and the Black Snake that it was not something the police could
intervene in.
When she came back last night, the whole Cansington was blocked off.
This was evidently a conflict between prominent figures.
Just when Thea was panicking, James returned home.
He pushed open the door and walked him. Seeing Quincy was there, he said with a smile, “Yo, you‘re
still here?”
“Honey....”
Seeing James return safely, Thea immediately rushed to him and leaped into his arms, sobbing
hysterically
After crying for a while, she returned to her senses and asked anxiously, “A–Are you alright?”
“What could‘ve happened?” James said with a smile.
“I saw you got shot last night. Let me check...”
Thea said and wanted to pull down James‘ pants.
“Darling, what are you doing? Quincy is still here.”
However, Thea refused to listen and forcibly took off his pants. There were gunshot injuries on his
thighs.
However, James had an incredible physique.
His medical books stated crucial information about the human body‘s self–healing abilities.
In theory, as long as one had good self–healing abilities, any injuries could be healed. James had been
training for a long time and took a lot of medicines while practicing his skills. Thus, his body‘s self–
healing abilities were outrageous. He did not apply any medicine to his wounds, yet the injury had
already clotted. Moreover, it did not affect him from moving around.
“Huh?”
Thea was surprised to see that the wound on his thigh had already clotted, and new flesh had begun to
regenerate. Quincy‘s jaw dropped from the shock after seeing James‘ wound. Under normal
circumstances, a person who suffered a gunshot would need to be hospitalized.
James got shot twice, but the injury healed itself in one night.
“Darling, this...”
James said with a smile, “It‘s a small injury and won‘t be a problem. I already used medicine I carefully
prepared last night, and it won‘t threaten me.”
Thea was finally relieved.
James quickly pulled up his pants and glanced at Quincy, who was blushing. He smiled awkwardly and
apologized, “I‘m sorry you had to see that.” “It‘s alright,” Quincy replied.
Thea pulled James and asked, “Darling, who kidnapped us yesterday? How come Quincy was let go?
Also, how did you escape?”
Thea asked several questions at once.
James smiled and replied, “When you came back yesterday, you should‘ve seen the whole city full of
army forces, right? They took action, and I was saved.”
“Then, who are the people that captured us?” Before James came back, he had already thought of his
excuse. He took a deep breath and pretended to explain with a gloomy expression. “They are
assassins from overseas and enemies of the Black Dragon. They wanted to take revenge, but the
Black Dragon was already dead. You were related to the Black Dragon, so they captured you.
Meanwhile, I was a subordinate of the Black Dragon and was also captured. However, everything is
fine now. They‘ve all been wiped out.”
“Is that so?”
After learning the story, Thea still felt fear from it.
She never expected people to come to Cansington to trouble her after the Black Dragon died.
