Chapter 754

Thea immediately interrupted and reached out to support James. She glared at Quincy and said coldly.
“I’ll take care of this. You shouldn’t get too intimate with my husband in the future.”

Quincy let go of James with an embarrassed expression.

Although technically, James had accepted her as his girlfriend, Thea was still his ex-wife, and she felt
slightly guilty toward her.

Deep down, even she felt that she was stealing Thea’s man.

James was cold and was suffering from a headache. Feeling faint, he did not have the energy to argue
with Thea.

He could only cast Quincy an apologetic look Quincy understood and gave him a slight nod. Thea
helped James back into the tent nearby to rest. The tent was already filled with pillows and blankets.

James made himself comfortable after entering the tent and tried to rest. However, Thea did not leave
him. Instead, she sat beside him and looked at him with teary eyes. “James, are you still mad at me?”

James did not want to answer and kept his eyes shut.

He was dizzy, and his whole body felt light as if he was about to float.

“Answer me, James. Are you still mad at me?” Thea’s voice rang in his ears.

James opened his eyes slightly. He looked at Thea, but he had double vision and saw multiple figures
overlapping each other. He blinked a few times before finally seeing Thea’s face clearly. “I’m not in the
mood to talk right now. Can you leave and let me rest in peace?” James uttered weakly.



“No! You have to answer me now!”

Thea was unrelenting and tugged James’ sleeves, trying to pull him up. She shook him and shouted
like a madman. “I know I made a mistake. Why won’t you forgive me? I know you love me too. I know
that you’ve done so much for me. Let’s start over, please. I’ll take care of you for the rest of your life.”

James was slightly dizzy, and after being shaken by Thea, he began to feel nauseated. Suddenly, he
coughed up blood.

A few droplets splattered on Thea’s hand.

Inside his blood, a tiny worm could be seen wriggling around.

It was a tiny white worm that looked incredibly disgusting.

Seeing this, Thea screamed out in fright. She quickly stood up and tried to shake it off her hand.
Quincy heard her shouting and quickly walked into the tent. Seeing James’ lips and Thea’s hand
covered in blood, she promptly took out a tissue to wipe his lips. She asked worriedly.” Are you alright?”
James closed his eyes and shook his head weakly.

He did not want to talk and simply wanted to sleep. Seeing that James was unwilling to speak, Quincy
glared at Thea and said furiously, “Come out with me.”

Thea’s face went pale from fear. She looked at James lying in bed and noticed his fatigued
appearance. Suddenly, she felt a sharp pain in her chest, as if a knife was stabbing into her heart.

She walked out of the tent, visibly traumatized from the incident. Outside the tent… Quincy said coldly,
“What are you doing? I’ve already warned you about James’ condition. He’s extremely weak and needs
to rest. Why do you keep bugging him? Do you have any idea how bad his condition is right now?” “I-…



I didn’t know.” Thea was horrified. She never expected the venom in James’ body to be so brutal. His
condition was more severe than she thought..

Quincy said helplessly, “I’ve been telling you how horrible his condition is. He’s even said that he only
has a few months left to live. Why do you think he’s risking his life to come here?”

Thea looked at Quincy in confusion and asked, “Why?”

“He’s doing it to survive and also for you. He knows that you’re also poisoned with Gu, so he came
here to find a way to detoxify the venom. So, please give him some peace of mind and stop disturbing
him. You’re only going to frustrate him.”
