Lex stood up immediately and announced excitedly, "I announce that the Callahans will sell off all our properties in Cansington and enter the Capital! From this moment onward, the Callahans are officially a wealthy and powerful family in this world!"
Clap! Clap! Clap! The Callahans applauded excitedly and shouted their praises.
In the Emperor’s Mansion at the Capital, Thea overheard Lex’s voice through the phone and frowned.
"Grandpa, what are you doing? We've been doing well in Cansington.Why would you want to come to the Capital? The Capital is a dangerous place.Please don’t come."
The Callahans had finally taken root in Cansington after developing for a few decades.
Thea did not want Lex to bring the whole family to the Capital.
Although the Capital was the Imperial City, Cansington was not bad either.
Cansington had Transgenerational New City, and a new city was being built in the suburbs.
It was about to become an international city.
Moreover, the Callahans had been developing well during this period.
Although Centennial Corporation was suppressing them, they had been able to continue growing with Messiah as their backbone.
Hearing Thea’s words, Lex quickly said, "Thea, what’s the use of rising to the top in Cansington? It'd be better in the Capital where the rich gathered.I’ve already decided that we'll go to the Capital to develop."
"Don’t even think about it."
Thea quickly denied his idea.
"Grandpa, let me tell you the truth.The situation in the Capital is perilous, and the relationships between the major forces are incredibly complicated.Although James is the commander, he has plenty of enemies.Stay comfortable in Cansington.If you come to the Capital and something happens, I won’t be able to do anything."
"This..."
Lex started to hesitate.
It was his dream for the Callahans to prosper into a wealthy family.
Although the Callahans could be considered a wealthy family now, he did not want to miss the opportunity to reach a higher level.
Thea dissuaded him again, "Grandpa, listen to me this time.The Capital is too chaotic, and you definitely won’t get any benefits from coming here."
"O-Okay.I'll take your advice."
Lex compromised.
Then, he asked, "By the way, what's the situation with you and James? Have you remarried?"
The Callahans held their breath and listened carefully for Thea’s answer.
Thea replied dejectedly, "N-Not yet.There are too many women around James, all of who are excellent.I’ve no advantage at all.However, I'll work hard to win James’ heart as soon as possible."
Lex frowned upon learning that Thea had not remarried James yet.
He thought for a while and asked, "Can I announce to the public that James is my grandson-in-law and use this opportunity to hold a banquet, inviting all the big shots in the Capital? I want our family to shine once again."
"What?"
Thea hesitated.
James had just taken office, and their relationship was genuine.
Thea knew that the Callahans loved vanity and did not want to miss the opportunity to show off.
Plus, it was not a big deal.
However, she was worried that James would get angry and blame her if he found out.
After thinking for a while, she replied, "Y-you do as you please.I'll pretend I don’t know about this matter.Also, don’t tell anyone else I know about it.If James gets angry, it’ll be troublesome.
"I promise I won't tell."
Suddenly, Gladys interrupted them and said, "Thea, you need to work hard! You need to use some tricks to tie down a man, especially someone with great power like James.Don’t interfere too much with his matters.As long as you can remarry, you should just turn a blind eye to the other things."David also added to the conversation, "That’s right.Which man doesn’t cheat? Let alone someone like James, who stands at the top of Sol’s hierarchy.Thea, you have to butter up to him as much as possible! The future of the Callahans depends on him."
Thea was rendered speechless by their words.
"Okay, I’m busy.I’m hanging up."
Beep! Beep! Beep! Lex looked at the Callahan members and immediately ordered, "
Start sending invitations! Three days later, James will succeed as the Emperor! The Callahans will also hold a grand banquet.
I want to announce that my grandson-in-law is James! He’s the Dragon King, the commander of the Black Dragon Army, and the Emperor! He’s the most powerful man in Sol! "From now onward, the Callahans have the final say in Cansington!"
Lex exclaimed excitedly.
