David and Alyssa just came back after taking a drive in their brand-new Maserati.

The moment they entered the house, they saw everything-Xara hugging James' arm as she clung to him intimately.

"W-What...?" David exclaimed.

He walked toward them and said to James, "How dare you, James? You've been leeching off the Callahans for some time now. Now that Thea isn't home, you're fooling around with another woman?" "And you, Xara. H-How could you do such a thing? He's your cousin-in-law!"

Xara was just playing around with James.

She did not expect David to return so soon.

With her cheeks reddened, she immediately released James and hung her head. "D-David, it's not what you think it is."

"What is it then?" David raised his voice. "What were you two doing? If we hadn't come home in time, the two of you would've been naked on the sofa by now!"

James, too, did not expect things to turn out like this.

However, he did not explain anything.

Alyssa sat on the sofa. With a surly expression, she scolded, "Xara, how shameless of you! You carried yourself with such poise. I thought you were a girl with a sense of self-worth. But to think you would go after your cousin-in-law to satisfy your lust! Also, you sure have an interesting taste in men. James, of all people?"

"I-I..."

Xara opened her mouth but was at a loss for words.

She looked at James pleadingly, "James, explain what happened to them."

James calmly said, "The truth will speak for itself."

"James, you're dead meat. I'm telling Thea about this. There's no doubt she'll divorce you," David spat menacingly.

He had hated James.

His words at the family meeting had invited trouble for Thea.

It would be a loss for the family if Lex took the family shares back due to this.

James wore an indifferent look.

Thea was unlike them.

She knew their boundaries. She would be the judge.

"I'm going grocery shopping." Seeing the time, James stood up and walked out of the house.

After he had left, Xara tried explaining herself once more.

However, David and Alyssa were disinterested.

There was nothing Xara could do.

Well, so be it.

So what if they told Thea about this?

She had wanted James to divorce Thea so she could openly go after him anyway.

Thea was at the company the whole day.

She first attended the press conference. Then, she familiarized herself with the company's business after officially taking over as the chairman. Later, she prepared the documents for the application to set up shop at the Trade City Center.

She was so occupied with work that she had forgotten what she had witnessed last night.

She only reached home at eight o'clock.

By the time she came home, she was exhausted. She planned to rest after washing up. However, upon noticing that everyone was wearing a surly expression, she asked, "What's wrong?" Gladys looked at James and answered coldly, "Ask him what he's done."

David had told Gladys about the affair between James and Xara.

Gladys had wanted Thea to divorce James.

However, she never expected Xara to be the fuse.

Xara was her brother's daughter. She was part of the Hill family.

What misfortune.

"Huh?"

Thea glanced at James.

David stood up and said, "Thea, when I came home this morning, I saw James making out with Xara on the sofa. They were hugging, and their clothes were almost off." David exaggerated greatly.

"David, don't spout nonsense." Xara was enraged. She was only hugging his arm. What did he mean by making out?

Thea's face darkened.

She had seen everything last night.

She never expected them to be so audacious as to make out in the house.
