The Almighty Dragon General

Chapter 525
After Thea hung up, she looked at James. Her face looked like it was carved out of stone.
” James, how dare you. Xara has just started working. You know it’s not easy to make money. How could you borrow three
hundred thousand dollars from her?”
“It’s just three hundred thousand...” James smiled but stopped and shut his mouth when he saw Thea’s icy look. He stood up
and said, “I’ll make lunch.”
He went into the kitchen.
Thea looked resigned. She did not know if she wanted to laugh or cry.
James went to the kitchen and put an apron on. He hummed as he began to prepare lunch.
Just then, May sent him a text.
“James, I’ve gotten in touch with Black Snake again. He told me he’d be here tonight and asked for my location. What should I
tell him?”
After he read the message, he considered it before replying, “Do you know the repair shop in the west? There’s a mountain
called Mount Five Valley south of the shop about ten kilometers away. Just tell him that you’re there.”

“Okay.”
May replied. James got in touch with Ronn.
“Ronn, any updates regarding the code?”
“Sir, even Jake’s underground intelligence network can’t decipher it. I’ve sent it to the Southern Plains and requested General
Grant get an expert. He should be able to get back to me soon.”
“Good. Tell everyone to be alert. There could be some action tonight.”

After he gave Ronn his orders, he hung up, making lunch while thinking. Soon, lunch was ready. While Thea was waiting for her
meal, Gladys, Benjamin, and Alyssa returned from the hospital.
“Thea, what did you do? How much did you spend on this?” Gladys held her phone in her hand, looking at Thea’s ranking on the
Doctor App. She had a story expression on her face.” Look at this! It’s only been half a day yet you’ve had more than two
hundred thousand appointments and treated more than thirty thousand people. Century Hospital is infamous now, and the
Internet has nothing nice to say about you.”
Thea just buried her head u her food, not saying anything.
As she ate, Alyssa said, “Mom, I was added to a group chat today. It’s a group that’s trying to help Thea get votes Whoever
makes an appointment gets ten dollars, but if you complete the treatment and vote for Thea, you get a hundred dollars.”
“What?”
Gladys was gobsmacked.
“Ten dollars for an appointment. With more than two hundred thousand appointments, you’d have to spend more than two million
dollars. A hundred dollars for each vote and there are more than thirty thousand votes. That’s more than three million dollars. In
total, that’s more than five million dollars.”
Thea was shocked as well.
She glanced at James. She was just about to ask him about it when Gladys pointed at her and yelled.
“Thea, are you dumb? Why did you spend five million dollars on this? What’s the point? “Also, where did you get the money? To
help you clear your debt, I gave you tens of millions of dollars, yet you hid your personal savings from me?”
“Mom, no, it’s not like that.”
“How dare you say so? Look at that! You’ve come out on top. Even the real doctors couldn’t keep up with you.” Thea did not
know what to say.
“I-I’m full. I’ll take a nap now. I have to go into the office later on.” James put down his spoon immediately and got up to leave as
well.
“Hold it.”

Gladys said, “Who’s going to clean up if you take a nap?”
“I’ll clean up before I go.” James got up and took a small stool to the balcony. He started smoking there.
He could still hear arguments from inside the house.
James did not know what to say. Was it worth it to argue over a few million dollars?
If they knew just how much money he had, what would they do? James smiled slightly. He had not even finished his cigarette
before someone pulled his ear. He stood, following the pull. In a panic, he shouted, “Darling, ouch! It hurts!”
Thea’s expression was thunderous.
“How dare you lie to me, James! You spent millions on this and hid it from me. Who am I to you?”
