James stayed in the tree, not making a move.However, he knew that the woman had failed her mission. Nothing awaited her except death.This was perfect. He could have her join him, instead.Nearby, behind a big tree.The assassin still had her hand pressed to her wound, but blood poured out regardless.She had been shot, and it had hit her artery. She did not have much time left.The masked man slowly followed her blood on the ground and arrived at the tree where the assassin was hiding behind.“You know the rules, May. A failed assassination means death, but it also depends on the circumstances. You could have lived if the enemy had not seen your face. You’ve been exposed, so according to our rules, you must die.”The assassin walked away from the tree.Her face was pale as she spoke slowly to the masked man in front of her. “All these years, I’ve done so much for the organization, but just because he saw my face, I have to die? That’s the Black Dragon we’re talking about. Th

Smack! Lorne slapped the underling.There were beautiful women galore, but they could not touch any of them. Things would get messy if they did.Their only targets were James, Thea, and Quincy.He would not mess with anyone else. Otherwise, not even his boss would be able to cover it up if things escalated.“Go turn the electricity back on.”“Got it.”The underling hurried off to turn the electricity back on.In Quincy's room.Lorne looked at Quincy and Thea, both on the bed. Quincy had finished her bath and was lying on the bed in a three-piece pajama set. Thea, meanwhile, was lying sideways on the bed.Lorne could not help but swallow at the sight of these two beautiful women.These two were once the school belles. Back then, he pursued them both but got rejected mercilessly. Who knew they would both fall into his hands ten years later?He walked over to them and admired their bodies.Thea was wearing normal clothes, but Quincy’s three-piece was too alluring.He to

James looked at May Argentum, his eyes filled with gratitude.She was good at reading the situation. It was an invaluable skill.“Oh right, how should we deal with Lorne and the people he brought?” James asked while looking at Quincy and Thea.“We should let the police deal with this,” Quincy answered.This was beyond a small offense, it was a felony. The police should be notified.“Yeah, I agree.” James nodded.Quincy fished out her phone to make a call to the police.James took out the smoke antidote that he looted from Lorne’s body and began administering it to the alumni.Once the alumni recovered from the smoke and learned what had happened, they all broke into disgruntled groans.Lorne’s men were all restrained by James. He let them fall to the floor and they cried out in agony from the impact. The alumni procured some rope to tie them up.When they saw Lorne, his crotch was drenched in blood, and he lay limply on the ground. All of them drew a cold breath.In the hotel lobby of

Thea was reminded of yesterday’s incident when James brought up the one million dollars.Yesterday, at the Dragon Fountain Villa, James transferred three million to Lorne and received it back.She wanted to ask about it last night, but too much had happened in one day, so she lost her opportunity to ask about it.“James, how did you get all this money?” Thea looked at James seriously.“I…”James scratched his head and smiled awkwardly. “Us men will always keep some extra cash on the side just in case. This is some money I transferred out from my card last time since I had a feeling you might use up all the money on it. I wanted to have some backup for our necessities…”Hearing this, Thea fell silent.It was due to her incompetence that she lost all of James’ 200 million dollars.Gladys was distraught.Her own family was struggling right now, and here James was using his own money to help Lex.“Grandpa, may I have your card number?”James looked at Lex.Lex never expected the day when h

Jake was in charge of the underground information network.This was why he was so significant to James.He had to take control of Jake, and have Jake work for him.Without Jake, he would have nothing to work with, and he would require a great deal more caution in his planning.“Yes, sir.”Ronn made a phone call, “Inform the boys to get prepared, mission incoming.”“James, do you need me?” May asked.James shook his hand and said, “No. You’re injured, just rest up.”“But…” May had something on her mind.James looked at her, “Are there any other problems?”May answered, “It’s just that I’m technically a pariah. I don’t have any identity, so it’ll be hard for me to move around in the city. Could you get me a legitimate identity?”“No problem.”James nodded as he walked out with Ronn.Ronn drove them to the repair factory that Jake was at.“Boss, how is General Black Shadow?”“He should be fine.”It had been two days since James last visited Henry. He assumed Henry was fine since there wer
