James asked, "Are you alright? Do you need me to take your pulse?"
Maxine waved her hand and said, "No need, I’m fine.I only need a few days to rest up."
She looked at James and spoke in a gentle tone, "James, I plan to return to the Capital."
"The Capital?" James frowned.
"Tobias has already given up on you.You were lucky to survive this.If I hadn’t received the inheritance
of the Blithes’ Grand Patriarch, you would have been dead at Mount Littleroot.And you..."
He turned to Thea and rebuked her, "Why did you act so recklessly? That’s the patriarch of the Blithes
we’re talking about! He’s a sixth-rank martial artist.He could have easily killed you."
"I-I was worried about you.It’s also partly your fault for not telling us that you escaped.I was worried
sick, you know!"
"I was curious to see if Tobias would come to my rescue.I also wanted to see what the Blithes were up
to."
"Stop right there, you two."
Maxine interrupted their conversation and said, "James, Thea was really worried about you.For your
sake, she did her best to practice martial arts.She even managed to learn the basics of the Thirteen
Heavenly Swords.We planned to use the sword art to intimidate Donovan.We never thought that he
would be unafraid.Thankfully, you intervened in time, or else..."
Maxine shuddered at the thought.
James glanced at Thea and said, "Thanks."
Thea was jubilant upon hearing James’ words of gratitude.
Grabbing James’ hand, she said with a determined face, "I’m willing to do anything for you."
Maxine had the good sense to stand up and say, "I’m heading back to my room.I’ll be returning to the
Capital tomorrow morning."
After she left, only James and Thea remained in the living room.
James leaned on the sofa.
"Darling, when will we remarry?"
James glanced at the woman beside him.
Thea had undergone drastic changes.She was willing to endure hardships for his sake.
"Not now...After everything is over, we'll both retire and lead an easy life," James said in a soft voice.
He had thought about it.
After everything was settled and the new King was coronated, he would retire alongside Thea.
As for Quincy and Tiara...
He sighed.It seemed he would be disappointing them.
"By the way, where’s Tiara?"
James realized that he had not seen Tiara anywhere.
Thea said, "Something happened in her household.She returned to the Capital a few days ago."
"Oh, what happened?" James froze.
Thea shook her head.
"Something about her grandmother’s life hanging by a thread.After receiving news of it, she hurriedly
returned.By the way, you should go visit the Youngbloods.You're a genius doctor, after all, not to
mention that you have Crucifier.As long as her grandmother is still alive, you should be able to save her
life."
She sighed, "What a pitiful girl she is.Though she’s only twenty- years-old, she..."
Thea glanced at James.
All this while, she had been trying to think from James’ perspective.She wanted James to be hers.
However, she did not wish to let Tiara down too.
"James, I know you're in a bind right now.However, love is inherently selfish.I can not compromise.If I
do, I'll be the heartbroken one.I can only hold onto you tight so that you’ll never slip away.I don’t care
about the outcome.At least I know I tried."
Hearing this, James realized that Thea had grown, but he was ina bind regarding his relationship.He
rubbed his temples.
Thea hurriedly said, "I’m sorry to impose this on you."
James waved his hand slightly and said, "No need to apologize.In fact, I should be the one saying
sorry."
