NovelEnglishChapter 178 “What’s going on? Wasn’t everything fine just now?” “Today is my and girlfriend’s shared
birthday. We were planning to get our marriage certificate today. What happened?” Many people
complained as they left the Department of Civil Affairs.
Meanwhile, James was ecstatic.
It was a feeling happier than winning a battle. He walked to the roadside and got into Henry’s car. “Let’s
go, Henry.” “Where are you going next, James? The House of Royals or the clinic?” James yawned.
“To the clinic. I need to take a nap.” He had drank until very late the previous night and was still a little
drowsy.
“Alright.”
Henry drove to Common Clinic. Unable to get a divorce, Thea headed to the company to continue
dealing with company affairs

James slept until noon.

Outside Common Clinic, Nine Dragons Street-food stall. James put one foot on a bench and nibbled on
a chicken wing. “Henry, simply delaying the divorce isn’t going to do. You have to help me come up with
something.”
“What can I come up with?”
‘I’m not a relationship expert either.’ Henry was depressed,
A thought suddenly popped into Henry’s mind. “Oh right!
“James, isn’t it going to be Lex’s eightieth birthday soon? How about you do something to make him
look good during his birthday party? He will finally acknowledge you if he is pleased. I’ve heard that
Thea prioritizes the opinions of her family the most. Thus, if Lex refuses to let her get a divorce, she’ll
surely listen to him.”
James’ eyes lit up, and he slammed the table. “Great idea! You’re the best friend ever! You’ve solved
all my problems! Now, hurry and tell me, how am I going to make Lex happy?”
“The Callahans are very egoistic people. They will surely be pleased to have the Blithe King at Lex’s
eightieth birthday party. When they find out you were the one who invited the Blithe King, they’ll
definitely look at you with high regard!” Henry said enthusiastically.
Jarnes nodded his head. “That does make sense.
“However, I just want to live peacefully and don’t want everyone in the world to know of my identity.
Everyone would look at me respectfully and with admiration when I’m outside if word spread. Wouldn’t
that be counteractive?”
“Well…I can’t help with that.” Henry shook his head, picked up his chopsticks, and focused on eating.
James continued to think hard about how to boost Lex’s ego without revealing his identity as the Black
Dragon.
“I’ve got an idea!”
A plan flashed across his mind. “I’ll use the identity of the Cadens!” “Huh?” Henry glanced at James.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Apart from being the Black Dragon, I’m also a member of the Cadens. Ten years ago, the Cadens
were the number one household in Cansington. There was no such thing as the Great Four in the past.
My grandfather had wide connections everywhere, so if I use my identity as a member of the Cadens,
the Callahans will surely be pleased. At the same time, I can also reveal to Thea my identity as the
ghost – masked man that saved her,” said James. “You have to rethink that plan, James. You’re going
to be settling your grievances with the Great Four in a few days. Even though it might not be a
bloodbath, you’ll still end up killing a lot of people. Do you think Thea would still want to be with you if
she finds out that there is blood on your hands?” Henry dissuaded him. James nodded. “True. This
won’t work, but what else can I do?” Henry shook his head. Out of these two people, one was the
Commander of the Southern Plains, who carried five stars on his shoulders. The other was a one-star
General of the Southern Plains. These two had never panicked in the face of thousands of enemy
troops, yet they were in deep water because of Thea. James was willing to do his best for Thea. After
lunch, he headed directly to the Callahans’ villa. He rang the doorbell. The person who opened the
door was Lex’s granddaughter, Megan. She immediately crossed her arms when she saw James and
said condescendingly, “I was wondering who it was. It turns out it’s James, the person who lives off the
Callahans. What’s up? What are you doing here?” James came to see Lex and refused to waste time
with Megan’s nonsense.
