Chapter 2781
James was not expecting Brielle to appear out of the blue.
Thea looked at James and smiled mischievously. Then, she said, "l-l still have other things to do. I'll take my leave
first."
After speaking, she stood up and left.
"Thea..."
James stood up and wanted to chase after her but was held back by Brielle.
Brielle tugged James' arm and asked coldly, "Where's the bodhi tree?"
"Let me explain, Brielle." James looked at Brielle troubledly.
Brielle let go of James, crossed her hands, and stared coldly at James.
James said solemnly, "You already know the situation on Earth and the trials humans are going through right now. I
didn't steal the bodhi tree for myself but for the sake of humanity. I want to help humans rise up quickly."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Th-The bodhi tree is crucial for my clan's survival in the Demon Realm."
Brielle glared at James and said, "No matter your purpose, I hope you’ll return it to my clan."
James said lightly, "Honestly, the bodhi tree is useless to me. I've never consumed its fruit. If it weren't for the sake
of humanity, I wouldn’t have bothered going through the effort of stealing it. I won't return it. Either you capture me
back to the Demon Realm or let this matter go."
James acted unreasonably.
'You..."
Brielle was infuriated.
James had stolen the bodhi tree but was trying to justify himself.
She took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down.
It was useless for her to say anything since it had already been done.
She was no match against James with her current strength, so it was impossible for her to capture James back to
the Demon Realm.
"I have a question for you. Do you acknowledge me as your wife?"
Brielle stared at James.
All these years, Brielle accompanied Thea on countless journeys to find James. Since they had already proceeded
with the wedding ceremony, Brielle regarded herself as James’ official wife.
"About that..."
James’ face became solemn. After a while, he chuckled and said, "Brielle, I only married you to steal the bodhi tree.
You can't take the marriage seriously..."
"B*stard."
Brielle raised her hand and thrust her palm at James.
Her powerful palm attack struck James' body, sending him flying into the distance. James fell to the ground, and his
Blood Energy churned. Then, he spat out a mouthful of blood.
James got up with difficulty and returned to Brielle, saying," Kill me or punish me. Do as you please."
Brielle gritted her teeth and said, "Am I that unbearable? Am I not good enough for you?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJames shook his head and said, "It's not like that. You’re an excellent woman. However, I've already got too much
Karma. It won't be good for you to be with me. I'm doing this for your own good."
Brielle said, "I'm not scared. Since I've already married you, we can face whatever Karma that comes together."
James roared, "But I’m scared!”
He immediately calmed himself down and took a deep breath.
James had not figured out what exactly Karma was and had only heard Sophie mentioning it.
Even a powerhouse like Sophie was fearful of Karma. Thus, James did not want to involve too many people.
Tears welled up in Brielle's eyes. James looked at her and said softly, 'You're a very good woman, Brielle. I'm not
worthy of you."
"A-Are you afraid Thea won't accept me?"
Brielle said tearfully, "I've been traveling with Thea all these years, and Thea has already accepted me. She won’t
object to us being together."
James shook his head and said, "It has nothing to do with Thea. Alright, enough about this. I have other things to
settle. Goodbye."
James turned around and left.
