Chapter 24
At the Callahans’.Lex saw Howard and his family, but Thea was nowhere to be
found.His wrinkly face darkened.
Angrily, he shouted, “Where’s Thea? Why didn’t you bring Her home?”
Megan looped her arm through his immediately.
“Grandfather, calm down.Please hear me out.Thea has crossed the line.She
asked all of us to kneel, which we did, but she still refused to come home.She
even requested that you transfer ten percent of the group’s shares to
Benjamin.Also, she said that you’re just a biased old man since everyone else
in the family owns some shares except for her family.”

Lex turned green with anger.Hurriedly, she said, “Grandfather, they’re not my
words.Thea said all of that.”
“How dare she.”
Lex was furious.
Viciously, he said, “Just because she knows Alex Yates, she’s behaving as if

him.First, he invited me to his office personally.Now that I’ve been cast out of

with you?”
James knew the cat was out of the bag.
Smiling, he said, “You’re right.”
“I knew it! Why would Alex be so respectful toward me? It is because of you,”
Thea realized.
James said, “I’m an orphan, and I was pretty skillful as a soldier.I saved Alex’s
life once, so he owed me a favor.Alex was repaying me with the partnership
agreement and the incident today.We owe each other nothing now.”
“Thank you.” James took Thea’s hand in his.
“We’re family.Don’t mention it.”
“Also, how are you so skilled in medicine?” Thea looked at James. 
