The Almighty Dragon General novel Chapter 2151

Chapter 2151

James was truly interested in the Burial Jade.

Since Zoe brought up the topic, James expressed his interest in the jade pendant.

As for the Targwyns’ ancestral land, James knew the Targwyns were renowned in the family’s predecessors once made up the greatest clan in a certain period of history.

Thus, the Targwyns’ ancestral land was undoubtedly an extraordinary location.

This piqued his interest and James was intrigued to see it.

Zoe briefly hesitated after James stated his refusal to marry Laelia.

The jade pendant was their family heirloom, and they refused to hand it over even at the cost of their entire city, so it was impossible to simply hand it over to James.

Although James did indeed save their family, Zoe was unwilling to give it to James as a simple gift of gratitude.

He would only bequeath it to James in the form of a dowry.

“Mr. Caden, the jade pendant has been handed down by our family’s ancestors and is a very sentimental item to our family. We can only offer it to you in the form of a dowry. Please forgive me.”

Zoe was upfront with his reservations.

James would have to marry Laelia if he wanted the jade pendant.

Disappointed, James said, “If that’s the case, then forget it.”

There was also a look of disappointment on Laelia’s face.

She was in favor of marrying James but did not want to force the issue since he already had a wife.

Sitting at the head of the table, Zoe called out, “Laelia.”

Laelia nodded and replied, “Yes, Father?”

Zoe ordered, “Since Mr. Caden is interested in our family’s ancestral land, you should take him there tomorrow.”

“Understood.” Laelia nodded.

“Alright. Everyone’s dismissed.”

Although she did not know much about their family history, she knew they had a powerful ancestor.

James was intrigued by the Targwyns’ ancestral land after briefly learning about it.

Laelia took out the jade pendant and looked at it, saying, “I’d love to give it to you, but my father said it’s our family’s heirloom, so I can’t just give it away.”

James gently waved his hand and said, “I’m just curious about it. It’s not that I really want it. Plus, it may not even be useful to me.”

Laelia absentmindedly looked at the Burial Jade. With doubt on her pretty face, she said, “I’ve no idea what secret this jade pendant holds.”

James looked at it, and then a thought flashed in his mind. He suggested, “Perhaps it has something to do with your family’s ancestral land.”

“Perhaps.”

Laelia put away the jade pendant and did not think much of it anymore.

“You shout rest well for the night. I’ll bring you to there tomorrow.”

“Alright.” James nodded.
