Roar of the Supreme Warrior novel Chapter 888

Similar to his situation with Blake, James could not see through Tobias.

He depended on his instincts when it came to making friends, and he felt that Tobias was unreliable.

This man was unfathomable, and it was hard to know what was on his mind.

Moreover, there was the issue of the inner conflict of the Cadens from thirty years ago and the annihilation of James’ family ten years ago. Tobias was the culprit, and hence, there would always be vengeance sitting in the back of James’ mind.

Despite that, James was still unsure if he should kill Tobias and avenge his family once he got strong enough.

“What are you thinking, James?”

“Nothing. Let’s go.”

James shook his head, refusing to explain himself. He turned around and walked away.

Before leaving the Cadens’ gates, James was stopped by Bobby, who stood alongside a man about the same age as him. The man was dressed in a white robe, and he held a hand fan, looking like a graceful scholar.

“Stop right there. Where do you think you’re going?”

Bobby stepped in front of him.

The man in the white robe looked at Maxine with a smile on his handsome face. He greeted, “Maxine.”

Maxine frowned but still greeted him, “Skyler.”

Then, she introduced him to James, “James, this is Skyler from the Sullivans.”

James looked at Skyler and did not say much. He turned to Maxine and said, “I’ll be going straight to Cansington.”

“Maxine, are you going with him?” Bobby looked at Maxine and asked.

Maxine nodded. “Yeah. Grandpa ordered me to protect him.”

“Ha!” Bobby sneered.

Skyler was already dissatisfied the moment he saw Maxine with James. However, he could not take action as he was in the Cadens’ territory. Yet, now that Bobby had given him permission, he immediately agreed.

“Alright!”

“What are you guys doing?!” Maxine stepped forward and shielded James. She glared at Skyler. “Skyler, grandpa has ordered me to protect him. If you attack him, you’ll be forcing me to go against you.”

“Maxine, you rebel…” Bobby growled, pointing his finger at her. “I’ll kill you if you protect him!”

“Go ahead and try.” Although Maxine did not have a high status amongst the Cadens, she was obeying Tobias’ orders. Hence, she was not worried at all.

“Brat, you’re so useless. How can you call yourself a man when you’re hiding behind a woman?” Skyler wore a disdainful expression.

The more Maxine protected James, the more furious he got.

How would he have a footing in the Capital if word got out that he did not teach James a lesson?

Everyone knew that he was pursuing Maxine.
