Chapter 552
The Almighty Dragon General
Whitney did not expect James to be so capable. He had already seen through her identity.
âTell us about it.â James looked at her.
Although he suspected Whitneyâs identity, he kept it a secret for a while and observed her because he
was unsure of her motives for approaching Henry or himself.
Now, it seemed that this woman did not have ill intentions toward Henry but rather seemed interested in
him. Thus, he simply poked through her identity.
âHeâs my father.â
Whitney did not hide it. She smiled mischievously and replied, âTo be honest, I secretly snuck out from
home. The Northern Border is too boring, so I came to Cansington.â Henry was stunned to learn of her
identity.
This woman was the daughter of one of the Five Commanders.

âNot bad.â
James smiled brightly and glanced at Henry. âHenry, you better seize your chances. The daughter of a
commander must have countless wealthy suitors wanting to marry her.â âCough, cough...â Henry smiled
awkwardly âFine. I wonât tease you anymore. Iâm heading off.â James stood up and was about to leave.
âJames,â Henry called out and glanced at him pleadingly. James immediately understood and threw
him a cigarette. After thinking for a moment, he felt that one was not enough. He knew that Henry had
a cigarette addiction and would have at least two packs daily. He threw all the cigarettes he had and a
lighter to Henry. Whitney took it and said sternly, âNo smoking.â
âJames, do something about this girl. She wonât even let me smoke and is trying to kill me. Could you
get me a nurse instead?â Henry looked frustrated. These few days, he was about to suffocate from the
withdrawal symptoms. He was looking forward to seeing James so he could get some cigarettes.
James said with a smile, âDonât worry too much, Whitney. Itâs normal for men to smoke and drink Henry
only smokes. He doesnât touch anything else. Youâll be taking away his only entertainment if you donât
let him smoke.â
âJames, itâs not that I donât want him to smoke, itâs that heâs injured right now.â James shrugged
helplessly and turned to leave the ward. âWoman, Iâll have just one! Just one!â Henry pleaded with
Whitney. âWhat? What did you just call me?â Whitneyâs face darkened immediately, âMs. Walker, Ms.
Beautiful.â
Ultimately, Whitney gave him one, seeing that he looked incredibly pitiful and addicted to smoking At
the same time, in a villa in Cansington.
Two people sat on the living room sofa.
A man in his 50s dressed in casual clothes and with a long beard was present. He was Jonathan
Harris, Gensintonâs National Doctorâs Association president.
Opposite him sat an older man with a wrinkled face. His eyes were saggy, and his eyes were cloudy.
He looked like a debilitated old man on the verge of death.
He was Lucas, the founder of Universal Hospital. âMr. Hamilton, the Black Dragon has cured the
poison. He also escaped and survived last night. You have to find a way to prevent him from appearing
at the medical conference. Otherwise, it would destroy our plan.â
A gleam of light flashed in Lucasâ turbid eyes, and he glanced at Jonathan.
âJonathan, Jamesâ medical skills are the best in the world. Isnât it your wish to compete with him? The
medical conference is a good opportunity. Jay isnât considered the real genius doctor. Only by defeating
James will you be considered the best doctor in the world.â âThatâs true, but we have to look at the
bigger picture.â
Jonathan eagerly wanted to learn from James. However, this matter was important, and he understood
his priorities. Lucas waved his hands and said, âDonât worry. Iâve already made the appropriate
arrangements. James wonât make it to the medical conference.â
Jonathan was relieved by Lucasâ reassuring words.
After James left the hospital, he returned to the Callahans.
As soon as he entered the house, he overheard Gladys scolding Thea.
Thea had a weak personality and had always remained silent when her family members scolded her.
âThea, itâs not that I want to scold you. However, the Callahans are in a dire situaÈion right now. James
borrowed several million dollars. How is he going to repay the money? The money isnât linked to us.
Divorce him before the debt collectors come looking for us. Youâre still young and beautiful. You can
always marry another wealthy man, and the Callahans will be able to start over again.â
Thea was dispirited
It was not something new for Gladys to look down on James.
âMom, James is working hard, Canât you give him some more time?â
âWhatâs the use of working? Whatâs the use of a few thousand dollars salary monthly? Is it enough to
support you? Itâs not even enough for you to buy a new set of cosmetics.â James opened the door and
entered just in time to hear her belittling him.
He rubbed his nose and walked over with a bright smile. âDad, Mom, Thea.â âHmph! âDonât call me
mom! I donât have a sonâinâlaw like you!â Gladys shouted. âJames, this is just the way my mom is.
Donât take it to heart.â Thea looked apologetic. James smiled and said nothing. Thea was worried that
Gladys would scold James again, so she quickly dragged him back into the room.
âIâm so pissed! Youâve no conscience at all! All my efforts to raise you for more than twenty years were
for nothing!â Gladys scolded.
In the room.
