Chapter 394
The Callahans were up a creek without a paddle.
They had to think of a way to resolve the problem. Putting the loans aside, they had to return the 500 million they owe to the
Xenos as soon as possible. Thea still had 100 million in her company account she could withdraw. The villa the Black Dragon
gave her as a present should be worth around 300 million. They should be able to easily sell it for 300 million even if they sold it
below market price However, they were still 100 million short. Where on earth could she get 100 million dollars?
She wandered about aimlessly. Before she knew it, she arrived at the entrance of Majestic Corporation.
She wanted to meet the mysterious Mr. Caden. There were rumors that he was in the Southern Plains fighting the twenty-eight
fighters at Mt. Thunder Pass and was surrounded by an army of a hundred thousand men.
Some said that the Black Dragon made it out alive.
Others believed he died on the battlefield.
She was not sure who to believe or what to trust.
She was at her wit’s end.
After hesitating for a while, She walked into Majestic Corporation.
She sat on the sofa in the reception room.
Serena brought a towel and dried Thea’s hair. Newton asked, “What’s wrong, Ms. Thea?” “I-Is James here? I’m looking for him.”
Thea looked at Newton and asked. Newton replied, “The chairman isn’t here at the moment. You can go ahead and speak to me.
I’ll relay your message to him.”
“...”
Thea opened and shut her mouth like a fish gasping for air. She wanted to borrow money but could not bring herself to ask for it.
She was not asking for a small sum but an astronomical figure. She had also heard that the Great Four had formed Oceanic
Commerce in opposition to Majestic Corporation. As things stood, it was in a lot of trouble itself. “I-It’s nothing.”

She stood up and limply made her way out.
Newton watched her leave dejectedly. Only after she left did Newton pull out his phone and called James.
James was resting after operating on Henry.
Levi had bought him a new phone with his old SIM card in it. James had only just fallen asleep when Levi approached him and
woke him up, “General, there’s a call for you. It’s been ringing for some time and seems urgent.” James rolled over and got up,
“Give it to me.”
Levi handed him the phone. After seeing it was Newton who called, James answered the phone and asked, “What’s wrong, Mr.
Quinn? Did something happen in Cansington?”
“It’s nothing much, James. Thea was just here at Majestic Corporation looking for you. She was soaked all over. I think
something’s happened but she refused to tell me anything when I asked.”
“Alright, got it.” James hung up the phone. He looked at the time. It was only eleven in the morning. He grabbed a cigarette on
the table and lit it.
Then, he called Thea.
Thea was wandering about on the streets. She had no idea where she was nor what she was going to do next. The phone rang.
She pulled out her phone and saw it was James. She answered the call. “What’s wrong, honey?” James replied, “I’ve been busy
for the past few days and didn’t have time to contact you. Now that I’m free, I finally have time to ask how you are. Is everything
alright at home?” “N-Nothing. Everything’s fine as usual.”
Thea held her tongue. She knew James would not be able to help her out.
James had given her all his money. What she needed was more than what he could possibly give her. “Honey, tell me if anything
is going on. There’s nothing I can’t fix. I’m almost done here and will be back in around ten days.” “Alright, all the best.
Everything’s fine here, so no need to worry.”
Thea hung up the call.
Then, she wept.
She crouched down and cried her eyes out.
