บททั้งหมดของ The Almighty Dragon General: บทที่ 21 - บทที่ 30

Trent’s death a few days ago caused an uproar. No one knew who the man in the ghost mask was, but Alex knew that it was James, the Black Dragon of the Southern Plains.James asked, “How’s the partnership going with Eternality?”“All good, Mister Caden.”“Terminate the partnership. Tell the Callahans that Celestial will only work with Thea. Now that Thea is no longer part of the family, the partnership is terminated. As for the rumors between you and Thea, sort it out yourself. I don’t want Thea to be in trouble due to those rumors.”“Of course. I’ll get it done right now.”Alex took a deep breath.After he hung up, he made the necessary arrangements at once. He told whoever was in charge of dealing with the Callahans to terminate their partnership.At the same time, the current executive chairman of Eternality, Howard Callahan, rushed into the Callahans’ villa. He shouted, “Dad, something’s happened!”Lex raised an eyebrow. “Howard, why are you still behaving like a child at th

James knew that Thea cared about her family’s opinion the most.Over the past ten years, she had been looked down upon. She desperately wished for her family’s acknowledgment and approval.“Thea, do you want to go back?”Thea nodded lightly. “Yes.”James looked at Howard and his family, still standing at the entrance. Mildly, he said, “Thea will return under one condition. Kneel and beg her to.”“James…” Tommy got angry at once, a vein pulsing on his face. “You have no authority in the family. Thea didn’t even say anything. Who are you to make these demands?”James said, “If you won’t kneel, have Lex come personally. Otherwise, she won’t be returning.”Thea pulled on James’ sleeve gently, telling him to stop talking. They were a family after all, and she did not want things to be awkward.“Thea, you’re too softhearted. Since they’re at your mercy, they’d grant all your requests.”“R-really?”“Of course! Think about it. With Celestial terminating the partnership, it’s their lo

As ten percent was a substantial amount, she was worried that grandfather would not agree to it.The only thing she could do now was wait.Soon, Howard returned to Common Clinic.Alone this time, he had the transfer agreement for the shares with him.“Thea, dad has signed the agreement. Once Benjamin signs here, he will own ten percent of the family’s shares. Now that you have the transfer agreement, could you call Alex and tell him to resume the partnership with Eternality?”Thea studied the agreement carefully.Once she verified that it was authentic, she cheered in joy. “Jamie, grandfather has agreed! Yes! Finally, my dad will have some standing.”“Thea, please call Alex. The trucks are at Eternality taking the materials away. Once we get this out of the way, we can celebrate properly later,” Howard said.Thea looked at James.James nodded, saying, “Call him.”“S-should I?” Thea was nervous. Alex owed James a favor after all, not her.James said, “Of course. Go for it.”

The Gourmand was famous in Cansington. It was the grandest restaurant around, though its establishment was divided into several tiers.The private rooms it had available in order of the most luxurious were Diamond, Gold, Silver, Bronze, and Black Iron. Apart from that, it also had a public hall.Even at the public hall, a meal at The Gourmand costs thousands of dollars.It was peak time, so the public hall was filled with customers. The line they had to wait in was more than thirty people long.Gladys started complaining again."You're useless, Benjamin. Look at Howard. He's a Bronze member of The Gourmand. He doesn't even have to wait when he comes here, he can just walk straight into the private room."And you. Some soldier you are. No money, no power… Look at John's son-in-law. Now that's a respectable man. He's a Silver member of The Gourmand. Just one phone call from him will send a waiter straight out to welcome him in. Ugh. Why did my daughter have to marry a poor man?"G

However, James pulled her back up. "This doesn't concern you, Thea," he said simply. "I was the one that hit her. She can come at me if she wants. I won't let this affect the Callahans.""Come at you? Alright." Belinda's temper flared at his words. She took her phone out and called the manager of The Gourmand. "Mr. Thomas? It's Belinda Frasier, Gold member of The Gourmand. Someone hit me right outside your restaurant. I need some of your security guards. Now."Belinda glared at James as she hung up. "You're dead meat. I'm not letting you off, even if you knelt down and begged me to. I'm breaking both your legs today, or my name isn't Belinda Frasier!"Gladys rushed forward to try to appease her. "I'm really sorry, Miss Frasier. This is all my good-for-nothing son-in-law's fault! I'll apologize for him, so please forgive us! Just pretend we farted!"Gladys was terrified.Getting a portion of the family's shares was a once-in-a-lifetime feat. She definitely wanted to avoid angerin
