Roar of the Supreme Warrior novel Chapter 914

“I’ve really no clue at all.”

Thea denied it again.

“If I find out that you lied to me… Hmph!” James snorted, stood up furiously, and turned to leave.

“James…” Quincy called out for him. She cast a glance at Thea and quickly chased after James. She grabbed his arm and asked, “What happened, James?”

James took a deep breath and calmed himself down.

He explained, “Tiara was taken away by someone. This person is most likely my grandfather. However, he is supposed to have died in the fire ten years ago, so I can’t be certain. On top of that, Maxine had suggested that the God-King Palace was created by my grandfather, Thomas. He had secretly been in contact with Thea and got her to help me twice.”

“I-Isn’t this a good thing? Your grandfather is helping you from behind the scenes. Is there a problem with that?” asked Quincy.

James explained, “Yes, but Maxine described my grandpa as cunning and heinous. Plus, Tiara disappeared with him, and I don’t know where they went.”

“W-Why is everything so complicated?” Quincy gently massaged her temples. The information revealed by James was too much for her to digest.

James did not further explain anything and simply turned to leave the building.

Quincy did not chase after him and returned to the office. Thea was still sitting on the sofa without saying a word.

“What’re you doing, Thea? If you already knew of James’ grandfather's existence, why did you hide it?” Quincy walked over and asked.

“I don’t know him.” Thea firmly denied it again. She stood up and said, “I’ll head back to work. I’ve got some important documents to look through.”

Quincy sighed and turned to leave the office.

James looked at Maxine and asked, “Then tell me, what I should do instead?”

Maxine said, “If that man really is your grandfather, Thomas, then Thea must have been the one who disguised herself as me to help you in the Capital. Thomas’ goal was to disrupt the forces in the Capital. Some time ago, the ancient painting held by the Johnstons was stolen. I think the person who stole it might be Thomas.”

“What do you think my grandfather is trying to achieve, then?”

While James had rushed off to question Thea, Maxine had carefully analyzed the situation.

“I think he has two goals. First, he is trying to collect the four paintings protected by the Ancient Four. Assuming that this is the case, then he must be the mastermind behind the raid on the Prince of Orchid Mountain’s tomb.

“Secondly, he must have other ambitions. Thus, he deliberately used you to disrupt the overall situation, trying to crumble the Ancient Four and other forces.”
