Chapter 1438

James had summoned Quincy to the Capital.

Since he was aware of Orient Commerce's existence, he wished to establish a chamber of commerce in order to compete with Orient Commerce and reclaim control of Sol's economy from them.

In this day and age, money was everything. With enough money, one could rule over everything.

Quincy was quite active during this period.

After listening to Gloom, the King began to ponder. Up until this point, it had become increasingly difficult for him to see through James.

Although James appeared uninterested in the throne, everything he did was to pave the way for his ascension.

He rubbed his temples gently. Now, he was not sure if he should trust James.

"Gloom, tell me. What is James trying to do? He doesn't care about the King's position, and he's not interested in being at the helm of Sol, but he's doing so much.

And everything he does seems to be laying the groundwork for himself. Aside from Quincy, there's also Maxine."

The King's expression was solemn as he mentioned Maxine.

"Maxine is far too impressive. She was adopted by the Caden family, but she's now the head of the family, and she is firmly seated in that position, having gained their trust.

During this time, Maxine wasn't sitting around either. She's been up to a lot in the shadows.

"Maxine and Quincy. They are both people close to James."

Gloom responded, "I don't think James has any good intentions either. Why else would he be so dedicated to doing all of this?

James doesn’t become King, he still wants Sol to be under his control.
