The Almighty Dragon General Novel

Chapter 293 Thea was not bothered by it.

She did not like to be too flashy.

The car would definitely attract a lot of attention if she drove it out.

Thea was not complaining, so James also did not say much.

He opened the Maserati door and got inside the drivers seat.

Thea hopped into the passenger seat, and they hurriedly drove toward the highway.

North Cansington was the neighboring city of Cansginton and also one of the countrys largest cities.

James drove at a very steady pace, neither too fast nor slow.

After getting on the highway, he kept a speed of 120 miles per hour.

James, lets buy some gifts when we reach downtown North Cansington.

I havent been to North Cansington in almost ten years and havent seen my grandparents for a long time.

Since were going to celebrate my grandmas birthday, we cant present ourselves too shabbily, Thea sat in the passenger seat and said.

After speaking, she took out a card and handed it to James.

This is a new card I just made.

There are ten million dollars in it.

You hold on to it first.

Whyre you giving me so much money, darling? Im giving it to you, so just take it.

Although Thea had not been to North Cansington for ten years, she knew her uncles very well.

Similar to her mother, they were also very power-hungry.

She did not want James to be belittled in North Cansington, James was unaware of Theas intentions.

Darling, Ive found a job and dont need money.

The company is currently in its development stage and will need the money.

You keep it.

Ive enough from my salary.

Thea rolled her eyes at James.

You want to be embarrassed, but I dont want to.

My uncles have the same virtue as my mother.

James immediately understood after hearing this.

Thus, he quietly put away the card.

By the way, you probably dont know my mothers side of the family yet.

Ill introduce you briefly, so you dont embarrass yourself when we arrive.

Oh, alright.

My grandfather is a soldier and has always worked in the army.

Although he isnt in a very high position, his family has always held onto very strong military principles.

Therefore, plenty of my uncles worked in the army and are now dispatched to various government departments.

Janes nodded as Xaras admiration for soldiers was quite apparent.

Thea continued, However, my grandfather knows it is not enough to simply join the army, so he trained a businessman, my youngest uncle.

Hes currently a successful businessman with billions of dollars net worth.

My cousin, Xara, whom youve met before, is this uncles daughter.

Thea briefly introduced a few things about the Hills.

James listened attentively.

Thea reminded him, Dont spout any nonsense when we arrive there and dont you try to brag.

Whoever we meet, just follow me and greet them as I do, understand? James nodded and said, Okay, I definitely wont embarrass you.

After driving for more than two hours, James finally arrived at North Cansington.

The two did not rush to the Hills house and instead went to the city to pick out some gifts.

The two of them walked into a jewelry store.

Honey, what do you think is a suitable gift to buy? Thea glanced at a few valuable gold and silver jewelry.

She felt it would be a bit inappropriate to give such things to the elderly as they had already passed the age of wanting to wear jewelry like these.

James also had no clue, so he shrugged his shoulders and replied, You should just buy whatever you think is good.

I remember my grandfather liked to smoke.

However, my grandfather used to be a soldier and had been to many places.

Plus, many of my relatives are high-ranking officials, so he mustve already smoked all kinds of cigarettes.

There probably isnt anything I can buy for him, said Thea Why dont you buy him cigarettes that arent available outside? Easy for you to say.

Do you have connections to get them? Thea rolled her eyes and scolded James.

Regarding this, I do have a way to get them.

James smiled brightly.

A few cigarettes were not a big deal to him.

Thea suddenly remembered that James also used to be a soldier.

Moreover, he had been a soldier for ten years, and it would not be surprising for him to be acquainted with some high-ranking officials.

Therefore, it would indeed not be a problem for him to get some premium cigarettes.

Then, what should we get for Grandma? Thea began to worry again and immediately patted her forehead.

Grandma is the most concerned about health.

I shouldve gotten her some high-quality wild ginseng in Cansington.

It doesnt have to be bought in Cansington.

Im sure North Cansington should have some too, said James.

What do you know? Cansington is the capital of medicine, and the medicine from the city is famous all over the world.

Although North Cansington is next to Cansington and also sells the same thing, the quality is far inferior to the ones from Cansington.

Thats not necessarily true.

Lets go around and see if we can buy some good ones.

Thea thought for a while, nodded, and agreed.

Alright, lets look around.
