Chapter 1326

James opened the door and leaped into the passenger’s seat.

Thea slammed on the gas and had no intention to stop. Unconcerned about James‘ safety, she

rebuked him upon seeing him in the passenger’s seat, “What are you doing here? Why don’t you go

find Maxine?” “Thea, this is really just a misunderstanding,” James explained.

“I don’t know what happened to her today. I visited her to discuss our future plans. All of a sudden, her

personality changed, and she began saying weird things. In the end, she even embraced me tightly…”

James narrated the chain of events that took place.

Although Thea was mad, she listened to him intently. When she heard that Maxine confessed her

feelings to James, Thea scowled.

“I was confused. Weird images began surfacing in my mind, but I hurriedly catalyzed Ataraxia to

suppress those thoughts. That’s why I couldn’t push her away in time.

“Thea, I’m telling you the truth. I only see her as a little sister.”

“Hmph!”

Thea long knew that Maxine had a crush on James. Only James was dumb enough to not realize it.

She knew that Maxine would help James out. That was why she secretly helped Maxine resolve the

Cadens‘ internal affairs and secure her position as the family head.

It seemed like Maxine did not disappoint her. Maxine was formulating plans for James to become the

King.

However, this was not Thea’s original plan. She did not want James to be the King. She only wanted

him. to devote himself entirely to her once the dust had settled.

After hearing James‘ words though, she was lost in contemplation. Being the King seemed to be a

pretty good option. By then, she would be a queen with unmatched power.

As she thought about how much she would enjoy her soon–to–be–given authority, her mood

brightened up. “I’m warning you, James. I don’t care how many women you have in your harem. You

have to let them know that I’m your wife and they are your concubines.”

Thea grunted. She knew that many women had fallen head over heels for James.

Though James could still restrain his actions now, his mind had been affected by refining the Spirit

Turtle’s core. In such circumstances, it would only be normal to be possessive of things.

That was because she had Spirit Turtle blood inside her too. For the past two months, while she was

refining Spirit Turtle blood, she would have all kinds of thoughts surfacing in her mind too. However,

with the Ataraxia, she managed to suppress those desires.

James glanced at Thea. He did not expect her to say something like this.

As if sensing she had a slip of the tongue, Thea hurriedly explained, “I’m not giving you permission to

look for women elsewhere. If I ever find out, you’re dead meat.”

She made a gesture like a pair of scissors. James could not help but wince.‘

Thea gradually slowed down the car. Then, she took a deep breath and calmed herself down.

“I don’t like Maxine, but I have to agree that her words are reasonable. After all, who in Sol has what

you do?”

“What do you mean?” James froze.

Thea said, “You’re now the Dragon King of the Southern Plains. Meanwhile, the Southern Plains are no

longer the place from before. Dragonville is a cluster of cities given to us by enemy nations. Not only is

it territorially vast, but it also possesses unlimited resources.”
