“Alright,” the guard replied respectfully and left.
Brielle waited in the yard.
After a while, the guard returned together with Thea.
“Ms. Labhrann, I’ve brought the visitor,” the guard bowed as virtual-novel.net reported to Brielle.
Brielle gently waved virtual-novel.net hand and said, “Okay… You’re dismissed.”
“Understood!” The guard turned and left.
Thea stood to the side and looked at Brielle.
Brielle sat on a chair in a gazebo and returned Thea’s gaze.
After Thea finished giving Brielle a once over, virtual-novel.net was amazed and thought to herself.
James was in the Demon Realm for only a few years yet was able to attract such a stunning woman…
She’s gorgeous and looks very suitable for James…
Brielle stared at Thea but could not see virtual-novel.net appearance since virtual-novel.net face was covered with a veil.
She pointed to a chair beside herself and smiled. “You must be Thea, right? Have a seat… Please relax.”
After Thea heard Brielle calling virtual-novel.net name, virtual-novel.net was certain the man who married Brielle was definitely the one virtual-novel.net had been looking for.
Thea sat down.
She glanced at Brielle and asked coldly, “Where’s James? Tell virtual-novel.net to see me now.”
Although virtual-novel.net had accepted the fact that it was possible for James to take another wife, virtual-novel.net s did not seek virtual-novel.net consent before doing so. As such, virtual-novel.net was still slightly dissatisfied and was rude toward Brielle.
“What’s up with you? Is there a reason your face is covered with a veil?” Brielle looked at Thea with interest.
Thea took off virtual-novel.net veil.
Brielle was surprised after finally seeing Thea’s appearance and inadvertently praised her, “You’re beautiful! Your face is flawless! Even a woman like me can’t help but feel mesmerized by your beauty.”
Thea snorted and said, “Stop the useless flattery. Where is James right now? Get virtual-novel.net to see me.”
Hearing James’ name, the smile on Brielle’s face froze and was replaced with sadness. “You were slightly too late… James already left.”
Thea stood up abruptly and asked, “Huh? He left? Where did virtual-novel.net go?”
A little upset, Brielle replied, “Why are you asking me? I was hoping to learn of his whereabouts from you. That despicable guy ran away on his wedding night.”
Brielle gritted virtual-novel.net teeth after saying that.
Puzzled, Thea asked, “What happened?”
Brielle recounted the events of the previous night to Thea.
Then, virtual-novel.net spoke through gritted teeth, “Don’t you think virtual-novel.net went overboard? He sealed my cultivation base while I was distracted and ran away by himself. If virtual-novel.net didn’t want to marry me, why did virtual-novel.net agree to it in the first place?”
Hearing this, Thea could not help but chuckle.
Brielle moved closer to Thea and whispered, “Also, my clan’s bodhi tree was stolen last night… I suspect James was the culprit… His marriage with me was just a sham, and his real purpose was my clan’s bodhi tree… You’re James’ wife, right? Then, do you know if there are any powerhouses helping him?”
“About that…” Thea looked at Brielle but did not reply to virtual-novel.net question.
Instead, virtual-novel.net asked, “What’s this bodhi tree?”
“It’s an extraordinary tree. The bodhi tree’s fruit can make the person who eats it a Sage instantly.” Thea immediately grasped the situation after hearing Brielle’s explanation.
James was definitely the person who stole the bodhi tree and virtual-novel.net did it with the help of Sophie.
Thea was well aware of what was happening on earth. James took advantage of Brielle’s feelings and stole the bodhi tree to save the Earth’s humans. It was definitely something James would do. However, Thea kept it to herself.
After a slight pause, Thea replied, “There aren’t any powerhouses helping James…”
“That’s weird… If James didn’t do it, who else could it have been?” Brielle rubbed virtual-novel.net chin in doubt.
Since James escaped, Thea was unable to see him. Thus, virtual-novel.net did not want to waste anymore time.
She got up, turned around, and was about to leave.
“Hey, Thea! Where are you going?” Brielle called out for her.
Thea turned around and said, “Since James isn’t here, I’ll just take my leave.”
“I’m coming with you!” Brielle stood up, walked over, and said with a smile, “Regardless of everything, I’ve already exchanged vows with James and am officially his wife. I’d like to come with you and find him. If there’s no other choice, I’ll return to Earth with you.”
