Semua Bab The Almighty Dragon General: Bab 31 - Bab 40

Benjamin was about to say something when Gladys beat him to it. “Oh, now you want to talk? What were you doing earlier on, cowering in the corner? It’s so embarrassing being your wife. I want a divorce!”There was a crowd at The Gourmand’s entrance.However, none of them were interested in their family argument. Their minds were still on the Blithe King.“The Blithe King’s succession ceremony is in five days.”“Oh, yes. I heard that it’ll be held at Cansington’s military region. Apparently, the ceremony will be open to the public, but only the most powerful and influential people will receive an invitation.”“That’s what I heard too! Only the true upper-class families who are rich and powerful enough will be able to attend.”“Ah, I bet the only people who will get invited are the celebrities.”Everyone was busy talking about the Blithe King.Not James though. He sat on a chair outside The Gourmand, smoking a cigarette.To save her family, Gladys had embarrassed herself thoroug

“You’re right. The Wilkins are so lucky. They have such a dutiful daughter who married a Wilson. Chad and The Gourmand’s owner must enjoy a special friendship.”Felicia and her family were dumbfounded hearing what the crowd said.Chad was confused as well. What was going on? He had only made a reservation for the Silver Room, and he had never seen The Gourmand’s owner before either. Why was he here in person?However, thinking that he had managed to command the attention of The Gourmand’s owner, Chad turned gleeful. He lifted his chin and put an arm around Emily, enjoying the admiring glances from the crowd.Felicia was more arrogant than ever. She even turned around to look at Gladys purposefully, letting out a haughty hmph.Gladys was enraged. She blamed James for all of this, the useless worm.“You piece of trash. Look at them! Look at the company they keep! Even The Gourmand’s owner is here to greet them in person,” Gladys yelled at James, who frowned slightly.Henry never m

“But I don’t even know him.”James smiled. “Hmm, I have no idea what’s all this about then.”“Who cares who he is? Let’s eat. Oh, wait… Let me take a few pictures and post them up. My followers would go crazy!” David took his phone out and started snapping pictures of everything.Soon, the food arrived.Beautiful waitresses presented course after course.Whether in terms of presentation, taste, or smell, the food served was extremely appetizing.The tables were soon full of delicious food. Once all the food arrived, a group of women started dancing on the mini stage in front of the room.They were so attractive that Benjamin and David could not take their eyes off them.Throughout the meal, the Callahans were in a state of shock.There was so much food in the Diamond Room that they could not finish. In fact, they barely ate a fraction of it.“Oh no…” Gladys came to a realization after she finished eating, smacking herself in the forehead. “I heard that eating at the Diamond R

Thea stood in front of the mirror, looking at her perfect face. She was shocked.James had told her over and over again that she would recover, but she was still surprised.His medical skills were nothing short of miraculous.“Jamie, you’re amazing. There are no scars at all even though my face was badly injured.”James smiled. “I can’t take credit for it. It was all Henry. He taught me everything I needed to know.”Thea touched her smooth face. “This formula will be so popular if the public learns of it. Can you imagine marketing this product at a beauty salon? Business would be booming!”James said, “Henry doesn’t care about fame and fortune. All he wants is to live an ordinary life.”Thea pressed her lips into a line. “How odd. How could he not like money?”Knock knock knock.Someone knocked on the door.“Thea, what are you doing? Your grandfather has called for a family meeting. He told us to be punctual. If he gets angry and revokes our shares because we’re late, I won’t

It was also Thea who put the Callahans in extreme danger last time.Howard slammed his hand on the table and growled angrily, “Benjamin, this is too much. How can you be late?! Do you think you’re greater than us now that you have the family shares? Do you think we deserve to wait for you?”“I’m sorry, Howard,” Benjamin’s head hung low as he apologized.Thea came over and said, “Howard, it was me who caused the delay. It’s not my dad’s fault.”Howard became even more furious. “Thea, don’t you understand our rules? Family meetings are of the utmost importance. Just because you have something with the CEO of the Celestial Group doesn’t mean you can ignore the rules.”“Yeah, because of you, we almost died at Trent Xavier’s hands.”“Thank god I wasn’t home that day, or else the Callahans would have perished.”“You jinx! You dare to ask for a 10% share after all that?”The Callahans talked over each other as they berated Thea’s family.“Enough,” Lex announced, finally stopping the
