Chapter 643

Cynthia walked over and helped Benjamin up from the ground. “Uncle, are you alright?” she asked with

concern.

Benjamin was beaten until his face was black and blue, with blood flowing from the corner of his mouth.

“No, I‘m fine,” Benjamin shook his head and replied. Yuri smiled.

“Since Ms. Dawn is willing to pay for him, everything is resolved.” Then, he turned to Benjamin and

said, “Get lost.”

“James...” Benjamin looked at James and was hesitant to speak.

He wanted to say something but swallowed the words.

James was no longer his son–in–law since he had already divorced Thea.

James glanced at him and turned to Cynthia. “Why are you paying for him? Do you have a lot of

money? The Callahans have money and don‘t need your few million dollars,” said James.

“James, isn‘t he your...” Cynthia paused as she suddenly remembered that James had divorced Thea,

and she stopped speaking.

“Seeing that we used to be a family, I‘ve already helped you. However, I’m not obliged to help you pay

for it. You should call Thea and ask her for the money,” James said as he glanced at Benjamin.

After speaking, James turned around and left.

Cynthia did not say much and simply followed James into Sovereign Antique Shop again.

Yuri glanced at the muscular men beside him.

The muscular man immediately understood and forcibly dragged Benjamin back into Sovereign Antique

Shop. Then, Benjamin was tied up, and his phone was confiscated.

The man found Thea‘s phone number in his address book and immediately phoned her. They

demanded for she brings the money to redeem Benjamin. Sovereign Antique Shop, lounge area.

“James, even if you divorced Thea, he used to be your father–in–law. How could you be so heartless?

It‘s only a few million dollars and just some numbers to me,” Cynthia said and pouted

“I have already stepped forward to help him and stop his suffering. It‘s the best I can do for him. I know

you‘re not short on money, but it‘s not for you to use it on such things.”

James forcefully came up with an explanation.

He, himself, was not sure what he was doing right now. Cynthia thought for a while and smiled. “I see,

James! You‘re using this as an opportunity to see Thea, right?”

Hearing Cynthia‘s words, James‘ heart skipped a beat. ‘Am I trying to use it as an opportunity to see

Thea? Is that so?‘

He gently shook his head. Even he was unsure of whether that was the case for him to act in such

ways. Cynthia immediately knew that she was right after seeing James‘ expression. She did not say

anything more and sat aside to rest. James was absent–minded for a bit. Then, he took out his phone

to play Plants Vs. Zombies.

After Thea received the call from Sovereign Antique Shop, she quickly rushed over. She appeared in

Sovereign Antique Shop in less than half an hour. As soon as she entered the shop, she saw James

and Cynthia sitting together in the lounge area. Her brows immediately furrowed as she walked over.

She folded her arms and glanced at James coldly, “Why are you here, James?”

James raised his head and saw Thea.

After becoming rich, Thea transformed herself. She was dressed in famous brands and radiated a

charismatic aura of a noble lady. “Why can‘t I be here?” James replied casually. Thea glanced at

Cynthia, who was beside James, and mocked, “You sure are fast. As soon as you‘ve divorced, you

have already found another woman. You must‘ve wanted the divorce long ago, right?”

“Don‘t say such nonsense, Thea. I‘m not in that sort of relationship with James,” Cynthia stood up and

explained. “Shut up. I‘m talking to James. Who are you to interfere?” Thea shouted furiously. Thea

showed no respect to Cynthia.

She did not bother speaking politely, even if it was Zane‘s spoiled and treasured daughter she was

talking to.

She was unsure of the reason for her actions.

However, seeing James with another woman made her uncomfortable.

Perhaps, it was jealousy.

She was jealous that James was getting along with Cynthia and would inherit Zane‘s wealth and

assets.

James was dissatisfied with her behavior. “Thea, did she provoke or offend you?”

“What‘s the matter? Are you trying to protect her? I only said a few words, and you‘re so eager to

speak for her?” Thea sneered,
