Chapter 549

Quincy looked at him disdainfully.

She would have been respectful with James was merely her boss.

However, apart from being her boss, he also had another identity–her first boyfriend. “James, shouldn‘t

you give me an explanation?” Quincy turned to James.

James felt guilty but pretended to be calm. “Explain? Explain what? Have you seen a boss explaining

something to an employee before?” “James, don‘t brush it off. What exactly happened?” “What do you

mean what happened? Don‘t you need to go to the company? Hurry up. I‘m sleepy. I‘m going to sleep

in the office.” Quincy asked, “Why did you approach Thea? Not only did you marry into the Callahans,

you have been secretly helping her but refuse to let her know about it. Also, what happened on Mount

Thunder Pass? You‘re alive and well, but the news is that you have died. The whole nation grieved

over you. I was depressed for a while to find out you were dead.” “You‘re obviously alive, so why didn‘t

you come back to look for me? Do you know I‘ve waited ten years for you? You came back and knew I

was around, but why didn‘t you look for me?” She questioned him in one breath. Quincy bombarded

him with questions, and James felt a headache just by listening to them.

“It‘s none of your business. Why should I have to explain myself to you? I only dated you briefly ten

years ago. Come on... It was just puppy love, and it was just for fun. Plus, I only held your hand and

didn‘t even kiss you before. That wouldn‘t even be considered a relationship in this time and age.”

James said casually.

Quincy leaned her charming face toward him.

Her lips were almost touching James.

James could feel the warmth from her breath hitting on his face.

It caused a reaction in him.

She pouted and asked with a smile, “James, are you implying something to me? I don‘t have to go to

the company today, so how about we go to a hotel room nearby and make up for the regrets of our

younger days?”

James was afraid

He was afraid of Quincy. She was a seductress that could charm any man.

She was gorgeous and had a sexy charisma that Thea did not have. James hurriedly explained, “I

didn‘t mean it that way. I just want to tell you to forget what happened ten years ago. You‘re not that

young anymore and should think of your future. How about I introduce you to some men? As long as

you want it, I can find you an official, a rich man, or even a soldier.” “Boring.”

Quincy sat up straight. She started the car and drove off. “I‘m just joking, James. I know you‘re married

to my best friend. No matter how insane I am, I wouldn‘t be stupid enough to steal Thea‘s husband.”

Hearing this, James sighed in relief. “By the way...” Quincy asked again, “I won‘t force you if you don‘t

want to tell me about the rest, but I want to know why you‘ve been hiding it from Thea. You‘ve been

married for so long, but she doesn‘t know your identity at all. Moreover, she doesn‘t even know you‘re

the one who has been secretly helping her.” “This...”

James hesitated.

Then, he replied, “She saved me ten years ago. She got burned in the inferno to save me back then.

However, I abandoned her to survive, and she suffered the ridicule of others for ten years.”

“I had gone to the Southern Plains and climbed the hierarchy from a soldier, step by step.

“The reason I came back this time was to repay her.

“However, being in my position, my every move is monitored by people. I don‘t want to cause trouble

for Thea because of my identity. I came back and applied to resign because I wanted to use the identity

of an ordinary person to protect her for the rest of her life. “I planned to tell her after I resigned.

“However, a series of things happened after I left. These things are beyond my ability. To be honest, I

might not even be able to protect myself, and I don‘t want Thea to get involved.”

Quincy listened attentively.

Hearing this, she could not help but feel envious. “I‘m really jealous of Thea. I would rather be Thea if I

could.”
