James shrugged. “What do you mean? I’m just an orphan. How could I possibly meet Alex Yates?” 

“Oh, come on. What about the House of Royals then?” 

James launched into an explanation. “How could I afford it? It belongs to a friend. We grew up together at the orphanage. He’s out of the country and knew that I needed a place to stay, so he graciously allowed me to stay there and look after the house for him.” 

“Really?” Thea still looked doubtful. 

“Of course. Why? Planning on divorcing me if the House of Royals isn’t mine? A little materialistic, aren’t you?” 

 

“No!” Thea pouted. “You helped me recover and gave me a new lease of life. We’re married now, and I’m your wife. Money is not a problem. I’ll take care of us!” 

“Thea, I’m sorry! It’s all my fault!” 

Just then, a woman rushed over and threw herself against the car window. 

Her hair was a mess and her face was red and swollen. From the looks of it, she was just beaten up. 

The woman was Jane Whitman. 

Linus followed closely behind her. He yanked her hair violently and threw her against the car, hard. 

“You b*tch! I lost my job because of you! I’ll kill you!” 

“James…” Henry started to say. 

James waved his hand. “It’s none of our business. Let’s go.” 

“Honey…” Thea looked at Jane, who was heavily injured. Worriedly, she asked, “Honey, will everything be okay?” 

James smiled at her. “They’re having a lovers’ tiff. We’d better not get involved.” 

“Thea, I’m sorry. I didn’t know that you knew the chairman. Please help me.” Jane fell to her knees, begging Thea. 

After Linus had finished beating her up, he came to the front of the car. He took out a pack of cigarettes that cost a hundred dollars per packet and offered one to Henry. “Bro, no, kind sir, could you please wind the window down? Please let me speak to Miss Callahan.”
