The Almighty Dragon General novel Chapter 829

Chapter 829

Thea looked at the man who claimed to be Thomas Caden in bewilderment.

Despite having been married to James, Thea knew nothing about the Cadens. After all, James had never disclosed any of this, to begin with. Even after discovering James’ true identity, he never brought it up with Thea.

What she was sure of was the news that there were no survivors in the fire that claimed the Cadens’ residence.

With this fact in mind, she could not figure out how Thomas managed to survive. That aside, she was not entirely sure what a God-King Palace was.

She asked him apprehensively, “A-Are you really Thomas Caden?”

“Who else would I be then?” Thomas met Thea’s stare head-on.

Thea followed up with another question. “What’s the God-King Palace?”

Thomas answered plainly, “All you need to know is that it’s a force to be reckoned with. By becoming the young mistress of the God-King Palace, you’ll be the most powerful woman in the world.”

Thea was taken aback.

Then, she exclaimed, “So you’re the one making things difficult for James all this while…!”

“I reject your offer. Now, get out of my car.” Making it clear that he was no longer welcome, Thea pointed at the car door.

Thomas shrugged indifferently. “Looks like I made the right choice. In all honesty, I was just testing you. James really is my grandson, though. What do I stand to gain if I made things difficult for him? Do you know how many enemies he’s made?”

“Huh?”

Thea could not keep up with all these revelations.

What the heck was wrong with this old man?

“Do you know why he’s given up on you?”

“Why?”

Thomas continued as if he was delivering a lecture, “Firstly, you callously broke his heart. Next, he has no other choice. He’s surrounded by people who want nothing more than to bring him down. If he continues to stay by your side, his enemies will use you against him. He’s just trying to protect you. Lastly, he has many other women vying for his attention. My grandson is simply too set in his ways. Back in my day, no one would raise a fuss about having a mistress

or two.”

Thea’s face hardened in response to what she just heard.

Without caring about how she felt, Thomas kept speaking, “The Emperor’s downfall is all but imminent. Once he dies, chaos will descend on the populace. The King thinks that he can use James to solve all his problems. However, the Cadens are a bunch of senile and obstinate fools.
