Thea’s mind was clear after all she had experienced. She loved James. James had a place in her
heart.
She remembered how James treated her injuries. She remembered James’ meticulous care and
attention toward her. She suggested they showered together. She wanted James to be her first.
James looked at Thea in a daze.
Then, he grinned mischievously and asked, “Is that so? You better think again. I’m not forcing you.”
“If you don’t want to, then so be it.”
Thea blushed and made her way to the bathroom.
James scratched his nose.
He wanted to make a move on her.
However, now was not the time.
He still had business to deal with.
Besides, he had not held a wedding ceremony with Thea yet. He planned to officially marry her after
dealing with everything. It would be a grand wedding ceremony, the envy of all. Only then would he
have his first with Thea.
Thea went to shower. Soon, she was done. Wrapped in a towel, her hair was wet and water droplets
were dripping from it.
“Honey, could you help me blow dry my hair?”
“Sure.”
James was all for it. After the incident, he felt a change in Thea’s feelings and attitude toward him. She
had never asked him to help blow dry her hair. It was out of character for her. However, here she was
asking him.
Thea sat in front of the dressing mirror.
James walked over to her and used the hairdryer to dry her hair. The scene was both romantic and
heart-warming. “Honey, we’re broke.” Thea’s reddened cheeks were overshadowed by the poignant
look on her face.
“My brother took five hundred million from my bank account. The Xenoses demanded I
return the money and even prosecuted me in court. The villa and everything worth something have
been confiscated by the court. The money in Pacific Group has been used to pay back the Xenoses.”
“It’s alright.”
James said with an unconcerned look, “Take it slow. You’ll make a comeback. The medical conference
is just around the corner. I’ll make you the new Asclepius of our generation and spread your name far
and wide. There’s no need to worry about money once you’re famous.”
James was completely unconcerned about the money.
Although his journey to the Southern Plains was a treacherous one, he received a large amount of war
reparation. Although the vast majority of it was given to the Black Dragon army, he received one trillion
dollars himself.
It was enough to get a ton of things done.
He was unafraid of the likes of the Five Provinces Business Alliance, Oceanic Commerce, and Infinite
Commerce. A trillion dollars should be enough to get them to toe the line.
Soon, Thea’s hair was dried.
Thea stood up and flipped her long, black hair. The aroma of shampoo tickled James’ nostrils. She
stood up and pushed James into the bathroom. “Go and shower now.”
“Okay.”
James went to shower.
When he came out of the bathroom, Thea was already on the bed.
He followed suit.
The moment he got on the bed, Thea reached out and hugged him.
She was naked. Her skin came into contact with James’. James could feel her warmth and the
tenderness of her breasts.
“Honey…”
He opened his mouth to speak, but as he was nervous, he stammered.
“James, I’m sorry. I’m really sorry.” Thea hugged James and apologized non-stop. “It’s all in the past.
There’s no need to apologize.” James could no longer suppress his desires. He turned to look at Thea.
Thea blushed and closed her eyes. James could see her fluttering eyelashes. Thea waited for around
thirty seconds. Sensing that James was being passive, she opened her eyes. She was met with a
familiar face.
She plucked up the courage and pounced on James. She kissed him. Their lips touched
