Roar of the Supreme Warrior novel Chapter 787

James turned around and left.

The director shouted behind him, “Lydia is a decent woman! She’ll make a lovely wife!”

James ignored him and returned to Thea’s ward.

Running around the hospital the whole night had exhausted him. He lay back against sofa and gently massaged his temples.

While he was taking care of his business, Thea did not sleep at all.

“Honey, can you come over and have a conversation with me?” Thea tried once again to talk to James.

James raised his head and looked at her.

Seeing her hapless expression on her face, he sighed.

He felt bad for Thea and wanted nothing more than to protect her with his life.

However, he did not have time for that right now.

James moved a chair over and sat beside her bed. He held onto her hand and said, “I’ve been really tired lately and don’t have the energy to spend on a conversation. It’s not that I’m ignoring you, so don’t take it personally.”

Thea started sobbing and said, “Honey, let’s go get married again once I’m discharged, okay?”

“Thea, I don’t have long to live in my current condition. If we do remarry, I’ll only end up being a burden to you and your family. You’re still young and have a whole life ahead of you. Even if I don’t die, I’ll be crippled and wheelchair-bound or bedridden for the rest of my entire life. Do you think you’re prepared to shoulder that responsibility for as long as you live?”

James looked at Thea straight in the eye and deliberately chose his words.

The fewer people who know about the medical book, the better.

Only Quincy, the Blithe King, and a few others knew about it for now.

James did not intend to tell Thea about it and wanted to continue pretending he was crippled.

He wanted the Emperor to let his guard down. He wanted to be seen as nothing close to being a threat and he wanted to stop having a target over his head.

Only then would he be able to execute his plans and observe the Emperor’s every move.

“I can. Let me do it. I’ll take care of you for the rest of your life.” Thea replied insistently.

“Alright.” James nodded.

He did not say anything else and let go of Thea’s hand.

James walked to the sofa, leaned back, and began to meditate.
