Samantha fell silent upon hearing those words.She had no idea who Adrian was on the phone with, but at this very moment, she recalled all the events that had taken place since Adrian’s return. She suddenly realized that these events were not coincidental.It felt as if someone was making arrangements for these events in secret.It started during Swallow Central’s opening ceremony up until the establishment of New Paraiso.Too many things had happened in succession.‘There must be someone planning all this, but who?’Samantha’s gaze landed on Adrian at last. She knew that her husband was definitely not the ordinary person that he made himself out to be.Where was he over the past seven years?Had he served in the army?Samantha found that to be rather unrealistic but she suddenly came to realize at this exact moment that the situation was not as simple as she had imagined.However, she was a careful person. She did not say or do anything and obediently retired to her room.S

Riley broke down.The goal of Southrive’s River family was obvious.What sort of person was Jaden River? He grew up in a business family. His father and grandfather were renowned entrepreneurs. How could the Xander Group contend with him?Yet, why could Leonard not understand such a simple issue?Riley cried and said, “I’ve already said my piece on this matter, Father. We can wait and see if I’m wrong about this.“I have no doubts that the Xander Group’s shares will change drastically when Jaden channels the money into the company.“By then, Jaden will acquire all the shares using money bit by bit. In the end, he will kick Grandfather and all of you out of the company. By then, it will be too late to regret this.”Riley did her best to convince Leonard.But why would Leonard allow himself to be dissuaded? He was already immersed in the joy of having the Rivers as his backer.However, before Leonard could lose his temper again, Cedric walked over with his crutches. “Riley, I ha

The next morning, Samantha woke up early for New Paraiso’s opening ceremony.Samantha spent a little over an hour getting ready, donning a formal business suit with high heels. She looked alluring, mature, and charming.She also applied eyeshadow on her eyelids and lipstick on her lips, which was rare.Samantha looked extremely enticing and breathlessly beautiful.“Are you done getting ready, Adrian? Let’s eat on the way over. It will be a busy day at the company, and we should leave soon,” Samantha smiled and said to Adrian as soon as he stepped out of his room.Adrian glanced at Samantha and was enthralled by her.Her long legs were glistening with a seductive glossy sheen under her skirt and Adrian could not refrain himself from taking a few extra glances.“Do I look good?” Samantha asked.She spread her arms and spun around in front of Adrian on purpose.He smiled and said, “My wife is beautiful. She’s exquisite.”Samantha sniggered and said to Rue who just got out of her

Samantha realized she was no longer able to figure out Adrian’s thoughts.Still, she chose not to think too much since time was of the essence.Instead, she brought Rue with her to New Paraiso’s official opening ceremony.***Meanwhile, Adrian had someone deliver him a car so that he could drive over to Swallowston Cemetery.The area was rather quiet, seeing how it was in the suburbs.The cemetery was not luxurious per se, but it was the place where Layla Hart, Adrian’s grandmother, rested.Adrian did not know much about Layla’s life, but from what he knew, she was born into the Hart family—a wealthy family in Northrive. She had gone through life with a silver spoon in her mouth, receiving the best education possible.When Layla grew up, she became not only the most beautiful woman in Northrive but a learned one.Perhaps it was during the later years of her life that she crossed paths with Harold and got together with her.Despite her family’s objections, Layla went on to mar

Adrian said, “Grandmother, Father, it’s been seven years since I last visited. I’m sorry I didn’t come sooner. Too many things have happened ever since you two left.”Too many unexpected things had happened to Adrian over the past seven years, and now that he was able to see the people he wanted, they were no longer around.Adrian reminisced about the past and felt nostalgic. Yet, unfortunately, those times would never return.He recalled how his father was a kind-hearted man who always taught him to be a normal man when he grew up.Adrian shook his head and smiled when he thought about this. “Father, I remember how you always told me to be a man who contributed to society when I was little.“Well, I’ve come here today to tell you that I’ve done it.”With a smile, Adrian took out a medallion and five rings from his pocket.The medallion had the words “War Legate” carved onto it.“This is the War Legate Medallion, the most powerful item in all of Navia. With this, I’m able to co

Elara weaved through the crowd, found Samantha, and said, “Ms. Samantha, the Xanders are here.”“What?”Samantha had a slight frown on her face when she heard this. She had not expected the Xanders to show up today.Mandy could tell Samantha was concerned, so she stood up and asked, “Is something the matter, Sam?”Samantha took a deep breath. She genuinely did not wish to see Harold and the others ruin her joyous event, but she had no choice but to welcome them since she was their daughter-in-law.She could only pray that they were not here to ruin the party.Hence, she replied, “I’m worried they might be here to cause a scene.”The moment Mandy and Liam looked at each other, someone furiously yelled, “Have you no respect for your grandfather anymore, Samantha?! How could you not invite us to your company’s opening?!”It was Leonard who had yelled. Next to him, Harold, Wilfred, Cedric, Jacob, and Cecilia marched into the main hall, all of them with furious expressions on their

Samantha could tell from Wilfred’s tone.Harold was the one who conspired from behind the scenes to have Adrian sent to the army as border patrol to take Paraiso away from him.But now, Wilfred was making it sound like she was trying to take Paraiso for herself, while they were taking care of it on Henry’s behalf to protect the company.How were they any different from crooks?Samantha’s face was filled with tears, never expecting the Xanders to twist the truth to this extent, which was causing the people in the main hall to gossip wildly.Seeing this, Leonard said, “Everyone, Samantha only married Adrian for my younger brother’s wealth. She had my brother killed right after she married into the family and even tried to take Paraiso.“Paraiso belonged to my younger brother, which means it belongs to the Xanders, which is why we took it on his behalf. But now, she’s trying to use Adrian to take away our property!”Leonard shamelessly portrayed Samantha as an ungrateful imbecile.

It was against the law to accuse someone of murder…The Xanders were stunned when they heard this.They all exchanged looks for a moment, completely unrealizing they had taken things a little too far.And now, they felt extremely awkward thanks to Mandy’s reminder.At that moment, Mandy took out her cell phone and said, “You have some time to rearrange your thoughts and confirm whether it was indeed Sam who got Henry killed.“If you stick to your guns, I’ll inform the police right away and have the Battle Warrior Department arrest her. However, if she’s proven innocent after the investigation is over, you will all be sentenced to five years in prison at least.“So, what’s it going to be?”Mandy shot a glance at the Xanders as she clenched her cell phone.None of the Xanders were able to utter a word through their embarrassed expressions.Harold suddenly said, “My sons went a little in over their heads, Ms. Mandy. Samantha wasn’t the one who got my son killed. She’s innocent.”
