Chapter 403
The Almighty Dragon General
âUnderstood.â
His men went to the basement and brought the badly injured David up. Zavier stood up and said, âYou
may get the money from the Watson residence. Iâll take him from here. I hope thatâs fine with you.â
âNot a problem. I trust you.â
âNeed an IOU?â
Maximus handed an IOU to Zavier. Zavier then handed it to Thea.
Thea said gratefully, âT-Thank you.â

Zavier lightly waved. âDrop the formalities. Weâre gonna be a family soon. Quick, bring your brother to
the hospital. Iâll be making the arrangements. Letâs get engaged tomorrow.â
âAh? S-So soon?â Thea was stunned. She then said, âI-I havenât divorced James yet.â
Zavier smiled. âItâs alright. You can divorce him after we get engaged.â
Zavier wanted to tell her that James was the Black Dragon and had died on the battlefield at Mt.
Thunder Pass. However, after brief contemplation, he chose to remain silent.
Thea would soon be his woman. He did not want her to feel miserable.
Thea fell silent.
After a long while, she nodded. âAlright, then. See you tomorrow.â
She had no other choice. Zavier had been of great help. Not to mention that he was a good candidate
for marriage.
She brought the severely injured David to the hospital.
Meanwhile, Zavier returned home and prepared the necessary arrangements for the wedding.
As Davidâs injuries were mild, there was no need for him to be admitted to the hospital. After getting
some medicine, they returned home. At the Callahansâ⦠Thea told her family about the incident with
Zavier. âWhat?!â
Gladys exclaimed with a bright smile on her face, âYou shouldâve done this earlier! You shouldâve
divorced James and gotten together with Mr. Watson long ago! Things are looking up now, arenât
they?â
Wearing a smug look, David leaned on the sofa and said, âItâs all thanks to me, Thea. If not for me,
thereâs no way you wouldâve cozied up with such a rich man like Mr. Watson. The Watsons are worth
hundreds of billions. No matter how you look at it, James is a hundred light-years away from him.â
Alyssa nodded. âThatâs right, Thea. Remember to repay David once you get rich.â
Thea was in a daze. She ignored them and went straight back to her room. Meanwhile, the Callahans
were in a festive mood.
What a reversal of fortune!
Not only did they avert a crisis, but they even got themselves an impressive son-in-law. Zavier was
efficient. Soon, the betrothal gifts were sent to the Callahans. They were worth billions of dollars.
News quickly spread throughout Cansington.
Everyone soon knew of Zavierâs engagement with Thea. The wedding would be held the next day at
the Watsonsâ villa in Goodview Villa District.
It was a shell bomb.
Everyone knew the Black Dragon had been supporting Thea all this while.
Now, Zavier was making his move on Thea the moment news of the Black Dragonâs demise spread.
They knew Thea was married and had not divorced her husband yet. Even so, she was getting
engaged to Zavier.
At the same time, in a military hospital in the Southern Plainsâ¦
Henryâs condition worsened.
James hurriedly tended to him. Henryâs injuries were too grave. Any ordinary man would have already
been dead. However, Henry was a battle-hardened warrior. As such, his physical perseverance was
extraordinary. Moreover, Jamesâ superb medical skills were also keeping him alive. Although he was
alive and breathing, his condition was still volatile. At one point, his breathing slowed, and his heart
almost stopped. James used his silver needles to stimulate the blood flow in Henryâs heart to keep him
alive.
Henryâs body was now full of silver needles.
Every needle seemed to be trembling.
After spending a whole night in the hospital, his condition stabilized.
âWhew!â
James took a deep breath upon seeing Henryâs improving condition. âCommander-in-chief, you have
many missed callsâ¦â Just as James was done tending to Henry, Levi walked into the room and
handed him his phone.
James took the phone.
He realized there were many missed calls from Thea. Scarlett had called. Xara had called. Even
Newton had tried to contact him.
In any case, anyone who had connections with him had called him.
However, he had been in the room trying to save Henryâs life since yesterday afternoon. âDid
something happen?â Seeing the missed calls, he had a bad feeling.
