The Almighty Dragon General Novel

   Chapter 401 The Callahans gathered.

Thea, have you thought of anything yet? The courts summon is already here, and the trial will begin tomorrow morning.

The Xenoses are getting the money back via legal means.

David wore a worried expression.

Thea had been out for the whole day.

He wondered if she had gotten the money.

Theas face was pale.

Her exquisite face was devoid of emotions.

Like an emotionless robot, she sat there unmoving.

Slam! At that moment, the Callahans front door was kicked open.

Maximus along with his men stormed into the house.

Appalled, the Callahans stood up.

Maximus brought his men in and sat on the sofa.

Meanwhile, the Callahans stood by the side with horrified expressions.

Maximus glanced at them and said with a mischievous grin, Youve prepared the money? Thud! David knelt on the floor immediately and pleaded, Please, give me a few more days! My sister has been trying to get money by sleeping with rich men.

Ill get the money soon.

Thea wore a blank expression.

She was utterly disappointed in her family.

Take him.

Maximus ordered his men.

His men approached David and forcibly grabbed him.

Mom, Thea, dad… Save me… David cried out.

Thea, think of something.

Quick! Gladys panicked.

Think of something? What can I do? Thea shook her head.

She was at her wits end.

Maximus stood up and said coldly, Ill give you one more day, Thea.

If I dont see the money by tomorrow, prepare to collect this guys corpse.

After youve prepared the money, come and find me at Osmanthus Villa.

As he said that, he turned to leave.

Dad, mom, Thea… I dont wanna die… David was forcibly dragged out of the Callahan residence.

He wailed.

The rest of the Callahans did not dare go against Maximus.

Theas eyes were brimming with tears.

The tears flowed down her cheeks.

Think of something, Thea.

Even if David did do something wrong, hes still your brother.

Thats right.

Hurry up and think of a solution.

Thea, I beg you.

I dont want my child to be fatherless.

They surrounded Thea and pleaded.

Seeing their tearful expressions, Thea breathed a deep sigh and said, Dont worry.

Ill come up with something.

Saying that, she returned to her room.

In her room, she hid under the blanket and burst into tears.

She cried her eyes out.

The night silently passed.

Thea went to court the next day.

She did not get herself a lawyer as she knew she had no chance of winning.

As expected, she lost the case.

To get back the money, the court froze all of her assets and even prepared to auction away the villa James had given her.

They also ordered her to gather the money owed as soon as possible.

The money was not the main problem.

She would be able to get it bit by bit.

The real problem was Maximus.

Maximus was a vicious and cold-blooded man.

If she could not pay on time, David would be dead.

Dismayed, Thea walked out of the courtroom.

Though the sun was bright, she felt her life was bleak.

D-Do I really need Zaviers help to get through this? She was unwilling to succumb to her fate.

She pulled out her phone and called James.

Hey, honey.

Whats wrong? Hearing his voice, Thea covered her mouth and tried her best not to sob.

This would not have happened if her husband was a rich and influential man.

What a shame that he was a good-for-nothing man.

I-Its nothing.

She hung up the call.

James was lying on the bed in a military base in the Southern Plains.

Scratching his nose, he murmured, Huh… How weird.
