Chapter 919

Jamessuspicions were not groundless.

“Scarlett used to be part of a grave robber gang. However, she was clueless about her employer, claiming that someone else was responsible for communications.

“Additionally, although Scarlett has considerable strength, it isn’t anything overwhelming. So how would it be possible for her to snatch the key and escape from the enemy? On top of that, she even located Floyd and secretly followed him to Cansington without being noticed.

“That’s simply outrageous.”

Maxine noticed James murmuring to himself and could not help asking, “What’re you saying, James?

“Maxine, try to analyze this for me.”

James turned to Maxine and explained how Scarlett’s gang robbed the Prince of Orchid Mountain’s ancient tomb and escaped with the key, following Floyd to Cansington.

“Do you think there is another mastermind behind Mr. Gabriel who was backing up the Emperor? Could Mr. Gabriel also just be a puppet?”

Maxine fell into thought.

After a while, she said, “The person who robbed the Prince of Orchid Mountain’s ancient tomb is probably not from the Ancient Four. According to my and Grandpa’s speculation, we think the mastermind is Thomas. However, our speculations only hold water if Thomas is still alive.

“I think Thomas employed the grave robbers to excavate the Prince of Orchid Mountain’s ancient tomb. It’s possible the Emperor was not just obeying Mr. Gabriel’s orders, but another mastermind who keeps himself in the dark, Thomas.

“It’s highly likely that Thomas directed the incident in the ancient tomb. Perhaps even Scarlett is unaware of the reason she survived. He deliberately a

llowed her to escape so that you’d acquire the ancient chest. and cause a dispute.”

James questioned, “What good does it do for him to get me involved in this?”

Maxine shook her head. “I’m not sure. These are baseless speculations. There are countless possibilities for why things have developed this way. It might even be possible for Thomas to be dead and this person who showed up is an imposter. Until everything is unraveled, anything could be possible.”

“Do you think Scarlett is trustworthy?” James used to be confident in his judgment of people in the past, but now he was slightly unsure of himself.

Maxine thought for a moment and replied, “Judging by the current situation, she does seem trustworthy. Moonlit Flowers on Cliffside’s Edge is a famous painting passed down for thousands of years. Its existence has been known to outsiders for a long time. The painting is one of a kind and is priceless, so everyone is trying to get their hands on it. It makes total sense for Scarlett to seek your protection to

survive”

After hearing Maxine’s view, James did not ask any more questions. He slumped back into the sofa and

Scarlett had ditched her glamorous appearance while she was the nominal chairman of

“By the way, do you know Thomas?” James asked casually.

“Thomas? Who’s that?” Scarlett was confused by his question.

“Never mind if you don’t.” James simply wanted to test the waters. Scarlett’s expression made him conclude that she probably did not know Thomas. She would react differently if she had secretly been in contact with him.

“Do you know Messiah’s purpose?” asked James.

Scarlett nodded and said, “I’ve bumped into Quincy, and she told me a few things about it. I have a

general understanding but don’t know the details.”

James did not hide anything and explained the reason for the company’s establishment.

“The main purpose is to keep an eye on Centennial Corporation and compete against them to seize the domestic pharmaceutical market.”

“Okay.Scarlett nodded.

“You head to the company to report for work.” James waved his hand and dismissed Scarlett. The company needed someone to manage it, or else it would cease to operate.”
