Everyone at Joy Hotel was on the ground, moaning in pain.
Zane, Cynthia, and Luther were the only ones left standing.
“Impressive.”
Luther took a deep breath.
“I’ve heard so many things about the Black Dragon. He lives up to his reputation indeed.”
“I know,” Zane said. “That was very impressive. The Black Dragon’s strength is unparalleled and his medical skills are second to none.”
“Dad.” Cynthia looked at Zane with wide eyes.
Zane looked resigned. “He’s the Black Dragon. What can I do? Come on, let’s go home.”
Outside the hotel.
Thea refused to leave.
She knew what James was capable of. None of them would be a match for him. She was worried that he would cause more trouble for her family.
Just as she was wringing her hands, James walked out.
A cigarette hung from his mouth. With his hands in his pockets, he looked completely relaxed.
“Honey…” Thea rushed over, asking worriedly, “Are you alright?”
James smiled. “Did you think anything would happen to me? Let’s go home.”
“Did-Did you hit anyone?”
“What’s all this about hitting people? We live in a society where laws are in place. I discussed it with them. They’re civilized people, so they listened to me. It’s alright now,” James said carelessly.
Thea did not believe him. She insisted on going in to take a look.
“What’s there to see? Let’s go home.”
James grabbed Thea as he bid Xara goodbye. “Xara, I trust you can find your way home.”
“Bye Thea, bye James.”
Xara waved.
James guided Thea to the parking lot nearby and drove home.
On the way back, she interrogated him.
James kept insisting, “Don’t worry, I didn’t hit anyone.”
Hearing him say that, Thea was relieved.
After James left, everyone was sent to the hospital.
At the same time, the Watsons, Xenoses, Lelands, and Bertrands gathered at the hospital.
“Mr. Xenos’ condition isn’t looking too good. Some of his bodily functions are deteriorating at an astonishing speed. Based on his current condition, he only has a week to live.”
“Mr. Watson isn’t doing well either. Some of his organs have begun to shut down.”
