Chapter 396

Thea had no other options. The only one who could save her and her family was Zavier. The two
waited at a restaurant. Zavier came as quickly as he could. He arrived at the room of the restaurant in
just half an hour. He looked handsome and charming. He was wearing a designer suit and a luxury
watch.

Walking in, he greeted the two women, “Hello, Thea. Hey, Quincy.”

Thea stood up immediately, “M-Mr. Watson.”

Quincy remained seated. She sat by the side and gave him a small smile. She pointed to an empty
seat beside Thea and said, “Have a seat, Zavier.”

Thea took her seat.

So did Zavier.

The two were seated side-by-side. Thea adjusted her position to maintain a distance from Zavier.

Zavier glanced at Thea and asked with a charming smile, “By the way, where’s your husband,
James?”



“H-He’s on a business trip.”

“Is that so?”

Zavier shrugged while still smiling. He knew of James’ identity. Thea’s husband, James, was the owner
of Majestic Corporation and the renowned Black Dragon He did not understand why James had two




different identities.

He knew that James was in the Southern Plains. He might have died on the battlefield at Mt. Thunder
Pass.

Going on a business trip? That was just an excuse. “Thea, Quincy told me everything. I’ll say this,
hundreds of millions mean nothing to me. However, why should I help you out? It’s not like we’re in
some sort of a relationship or anything.”

Zavier was betting on the possibility that James had died on the battlefield at Mt. Thunder Pass in the
Southern Plains.

Even if he had survived, he posed no threat to Zavier. He now had the chance to pursue Thea as much
as he wanted. Quincy immediately added, “Zavier, Thea’s my best friend and a former elassmate of
mine. We’re close with each other.”

Quincy, I’ll gladly help if it’s some other matter, but there’s money involved in this. Not to mention the
amount Thea needs is insane. I don’t run a charity, you know?”

Thea pleaded, “M-Mr. Watson, I have no one else to turn to. Please, you must help me out.”

Her sad expression made Zavier feel bad for her.

He deliberated for a short moment and suggested, “Why don’t you divorce James and marry me? I’ll
help you resolve this issue. Whether it be the Xenoses or your brother’s loans, I’ll help you out. I’ll even
give you 1 billion dollars for you to establish your own business. After all, Oceanic Commerce’s target
is the Black Dragon, not you.”

“Well…”



Thea was hesitant.

Quincy tried convincing her, “Why are you hesitating, Thea? Mr. Watson’s a far better candidate than
your good-for-nothing husband no matter how you look at it. Why don’t just accept his offer?”

“I…” Thea struggled internally. Divorce? She had thought about it. After the divorce, she wanted to be
with James of Majestic Corporation, not Zavier. Zavier felt irritated seeing her uncertainty. He
addressed Thea coldly, “That’s my offer to you. If you agree to it, call me.”

He walked out and left.

“Sigh…” Quincy sighed, “Thea, I gave you a way out of your miserable situation. Why didn’t you seize
the opportunity? There’s nothing else I can do now. I don’t understand what’s so good about James. If I
were you, I’d have dumped him a long time ago.”

She then stood up.

“At least consider it, will you?” She stood up and went back to work.

“Sob…”

After they left, tears began to well in Thea’s eyes again Must she resort to divorce and run into the
arms of another man just to resolve this? She didn’t want to sell her body in exchange for her family’s
safety. Her heart twisted with hate and bile. She hated David.
