Lex, sitting on the sofa, raised his eyes and glanced at James. "Are you really the one who sent them?"

James nodded. "Of course."

"Lies! How could you have so much money?" Tommy shouted.

"Stop being shameless, James. Just because your surname is Caden doesn't mean it's from you!" Gladys scolded.

"That's right. The other party never stated who it was for. Plus, Thea is already married, so it's impossible it's for her. This Mr. Caden must be interested in me," Megan said.

Lex was incredibly uncertain about the gifts' origin. The delivery person hadn't specified the recipient, only stating that they were from a Mr. Caden. "Thea, do you know any rich man named Mr. Caden?" Lex asked, glancing at Thea. "II do," Thea stammered, nodding slightly. Many people turned to her. "Who is this man?" Lex asked excitedly, standing up. He glanced at James, who hesitated.

She wasn't sure whether to speak, worried about James's anger.

"Speak now!" Lex shouted.

"Darling, tell them," James said, glancing at Thea.

Thea nodded. "The man I rescued ten years ago was a Caden, but I don't know his full name."

"Ah, I remember!" John's voice rang out. Everyone turned to him.

"I heard the Megatron Group, previously shut down, reopened under a mysterious owner. Simultaneously, countless companies previously owned by the Cadens, under three of the 'Great Four,' were relinquished," John said.

Everyone was shocked.

"I heard that too. After the Cadens' downfall, the Great Four took over their businesses."

"Giving up those companies means a Caden has returned."

"Didn't he get shot?"

"The execution must have been faked. I heard the person Thea saved had an amazing background. The Blithe king staged the execution due to public speculation, likely using a death row prisoner instead."

"Could these be betrothal gifts from the surviving Caden Thea saved ten years ago? Does he want to marry Thea?"

The Callahans speculated. "What? Is he really alive?" Thea exclaimed. John shook his head. "I don't know. It's just a rumor. Also, someone took over part of the Great Four's companies and established a new corporation, apparently called Majestic Corporation. It should be in the news tomorrow."

James was speechless. The gifts were from him, yet everyone believed they were from the person Thea saved. That person was him.

"It's really from me."

"Shut up! Although your surname is Caden, you're not from the influential Cadens! Are you rich?"

"Darling, don't say too much," Thea said, pulling James. James sighed. How had it come to this? No one believed him. Do I really have to reveal my identity? No one even believed I sent the gifts. They'll probably kick me out if I say I'm the Black Dragon and owner of Transgenerational New City. I already told them this afternoon, but no one took it seriously.

He chose to remain silent. Mr. Caden was him, anyway. Let them misunderstand.

"No matter who sent them, I can't accept this betrothal gift. I already have a husband," Thea said, though lacking conviction. She was looking forward to meeting this mysterious Mr. Caden—the ghost-masked man who rescued her from Trent, ten years ago.

James noticed Thea's expression. He frowned, thinking, Could it be that Thea is really in love with me as the ghost-masked man?
