Chapter 188
The Almighty Dragon General
The whole family showered Brody with compliments. They all had the impression that Brodyâs uncle,
the generalâs secretary, had informed the general after the phone call.
With the general helping them, even a council member of the Five Provinces Business Alliance like
Gavin had personally shown up with Zack, who ordered the beating to apologize.
Lex was ecstatic that he could now hold his birthday at the House of Royals.
He immediately held a press conference to announce the news.
At the same time, Howard quickly made arrangements for the birthday party, including redesigning the
invitations and sending them out. Meanwhile, James, who was staying at Henryâs Common Clinic, saw
the news of Lexâs press conference on television.
He instantly knew that the problem was solved and that a Five Provinces Business Alliance
representative had shown up at their doorstep to apologize. Since everything was solved, he returned
to the Callahansâ villa again.
He rang the doorbell.
The person who opened the door was Howardâs youngest daughter and Brodyâs wife, Wendy. She was
unfamiliar with James in the past but now was very clear about who he was. The moment she saw that
it was James standing outside the door, she crossed her arms and said condescendingly, âYouâre really
shameless. How dare you come back here again?â Tommy was about to run some errands, but as
soon as he saw James at the door, he immediately shouted, âYou piece of trash! How dare you come
again? Get out of here.â

Jamesâ glanced at the two of them and simply walked passed them into the villa without paying them
much attention.
âStop right there!â Tommy roared.
âIâm here for Grandpa.â James was unwilling to waste time dealing with their nonsense. âYouâve already
been expelled from the Callahans. Youâre no longer the son-in-law of our family and are no longer
permitted to enter our house!â
âThatâs right! Get out of here!â
The two siblings treated James without any respect. Jamesâ was puzzled after listening to them. âDidnât
someone from the Five Province Business Alliance come to apologize already?
âShouldnât they be trying to suck up to me right now?
âWhatâs with their attitude?
âDid something go wrong in the process?â
James was confused.
Suddenly, a Brently drove toward the villa.
Lex got out of the car with his cane.
Accompanying him were Howard and Brody. Lex had rushed back home after holding his press
conference to announce the new venue for his 80th birthday
âThank you so much this time, Brody. Youâve really made me look so good!â âGrandpa, itâs just the
House of Royals. It isnât anything special. We should continue to stay humble.â Brody said very
naturally. âAlright, stay humble!â The two walked toward the house while chatting.
James saw Lex getting out of his car and immediately approached him with a bright smile.
âSee, Grandpa. I did not lie to you. You can really hold your birthday in the House of Royals. Why didnât
you tell me before going there yourself? I went back and called my boss and got him to help clear up
the misunderstanding and for the Five Province Business Alliance to apologize.â Slap! Tommy walked
to James and slapped his head. âYou trash! Itâs because of you that we got beaten up. My brother-in-
law is the one who settled the issue and got Grandpa permission to hold his birthday at the House of
Royals. How dare you try to steal credit for it?â
Lex was furious to see James again. He swung his cane at James.
James managed to dodge in time.
He stood aside and glanced at Brody beside Lex.
âYouâre the one who settled it?â
Brody stood straight and adjusted his tie as he boasted, âAll I did was make a phone call. The
Colemans are very influential people. Itâs not something a live-in son-in-law like you can understand.â
Wendy walked toward him and took his arm. Then, she looked at James contemptuously.
âMy husband is now the deputy captain of the specialized police unit in North Cansington. His uncle is
the secretary of a general in North Cansingtonâs military region. He was able to settle such a trivial
matter with just one phone call.â
Jamesâ face darkened.
Someone else was taking credit for his efforts again.
âGrandpa, do you believe him?â James glanced at Lex. âOf course! Why should I believe you?â Lex
said with a stern face.
