The Almighty Dragon General Chapter 827

If he had the choice, James would have chosen to return to ten years ago before the Cadens’
residence was razed to the ground.

His life would have taken a different turn.

In this alternate timeline, he would most likely end up with Quincy and spend the remainder of his life
with her. However, time and tide wait for no man.

Since these were the cards he was dealt, he had no choice but to play the game as best as he could.

“James, you should return to the Southern Plains. Don’t worry about me. I have the hospital’s nurses to
care for me.”

Tiara knew that James had been reinstated.

He was no longer the Black Dragon, the commander-in-chief of the Southern Plains. He was now the
Dragon King.

James nodded.

Returning to the Southern Plains and regaining control of the Black Dragon Army was far more
important than his personal feelings.

“I’ll give Quincy a call before leaving.”

James fished out his phone and dialed Quincy’s number.

Quincy had just finished work and was about to leave the company when James called. She asked
worriedly, “What’s wrong? Did something happen to Tiara?”



“No, I’m going back to the Southern Plains.”

“Huh? Why? What for?”

James slowly explained his reasons to her, “The events last night have alarmed the King. So, he sent
one of his men here with evidence of the Emperor’s crimes. He also gave me a secret order to return to
the Southern Plains and regain control of the Black Dragon Army. After resuming my position as the
Dragon King, I’ll return to the Capital, retrieve the Blade of Justice, and get rid of the Emperor.”

“What? You’re reinstated?” Quincy was stunned by the sudden revelation. Immediately after, she spoke
in a cheery tone, “Congratulations!”

“I’ll be leaving soon. If you have the time, please accompany Tiara.”

“Sure, no problem at all. I’ll take good care of your side chick. You can rest assured.” Quincy snickered
teasingly.

“Alright, whatever. I’m hanging up now.”

James hung up the phone exasperatedly.

Then, he looked at Tiara and said, “Rest well. I’ve told Quincy to visit you often and keep you
company.”

“Okay, I heard you. Anyway, you should leave for work now.”

After assuring Tiara, James got ready to leave.

At that moment, the door burst open unceremoniously.

A glamorous woman with wavy, long hair walked in. She was wearing a revealing low-cut dress, which
accentuated her curvaceous figure.



That woman that just entered… was none other than Thea.

Removing her sunglasses, she threw a glance at Tiara who was on the bed. Glaring at James, she
made no effort to hide her irritation. “Why are you in such a hurry? Where are you going?”

James’ expression hardened. “How’d you find this place?”

“Quincy told me about it.”

Despite not being invited in, Thea walked into the room and sat on the sofa. She crossed her legs as if
she were trying to flaunt them for everyone to see.

“What happened last night?”

James did not expect Thea to be here. He took a moment to collect himself before replying, This is
none of your concern.”

Thea could no longer hold back the emotions that she had been bottling up all this while. She stood up
and yelled at him, “I’m your wife, James! How is this none of my concern?!”

She pointed at Tiara, who was bandaged from head to toe, and asked, “What happened to her? Why is
she injured?”

James took a deep breath.

Since he was returning to the Southern Plains, this was a perfect opportunity to come clean with Thea.

He sat down and lit a cigarette.

“As I’m sure you’re aware, the Emperor has been targeting me all this while. After returning to
Cansington, I immediately began doing some digging on him. Last night, while Tiara was out gathering



intelligence for me, she was abducted by the Emperor’s men. I went to save her, and the Emperor got
away.”

James explained the events as briefly as possible.

“Are you saying that you’ve been pretending to be sick all this while?”

James shook his head. “Not exactly. I’m just suppressing the Gu venom inside my body.”

“How could you? Aren’t I your wife?! Why am I being kept in the dark when people who are practically
strangers know all about your plans? I can be of use to you as well. Are you just worried that I’m going
to create more trouble for you?” Thea fumed as she continued her questioning.

James drew a deep breath before he replied as tactfully as he could, “Thea, we’re no longer married.
I’ve repaid my debt to you. Since we’re no longer husband and wife, let’s stay out of each other’s
personal affairs from now on, alright?”

“Repaid your debt? Hmph!”

Thea stood up and gave her reply. Her words were laced with derision. “Do you know how much pain
and suffering I had to go through? I was mocked and ridiculed for ten long years because of you.
You’re not even close to squaring out your debts with me!”

“What do you want then?” James looked at her indignantly.

Thea narrowed her eyes at her ex-husband. “James, you will never get rid of me. Ever.”

“Thea, please stop behaving like a child. When we divorced, you promised that we’d end it on amicable
terms. Must you really have to make this difficult for the both of us?” James was frustrated at her
petulant arguments.



“Have you truly made up your mind to leave me?”
