Rue hastily walked over and asked, “Did you have a nightmare, Sam?”Samatha grabbed a towel and wiped away the sweat on her face. She looked around for Adrian but he was nowhere to be found. “Mother, where’s Adrian?”“He told me he had some matters to attend to and left.”“Why does he have matters to attend to every day? What the heck is he doing out there?” Samantha appeared to be infuriated.Adrian had been away on business every day recently.Rue had no idea what he was doing so she said, “Sam, you can ask him when he gets back.”“Fine,” Samantha said, “Mother, I have to go to New Paraiso. Riley and Elara called me a few times. I have to go tell them that I’m fine.”Rue said in a slightly worried tone, “Why don’t you stay home and rest for today instead of going to the company?”Samantha grabbed her bag. “It’s fine, Mother. I won’t work till late today. Wait for me to come home to your cooking, all right?”Rue let Samantha do as she pleased.Samantha suddenly stopped just

Barry sniggered. ‘I knew I was quick-witted!’He caught up to Adrian and said, “Sir, I’ve admired you for a long time and I wish to seek your mentorship. Will you take me as your apprentice?”Adrian simply smiled and ignored the lad.Barry hastily added, “Sir, I’m not seeking to learn for nothing. I have information to offer in exchange!”Adrian checked the time and said as he continued to walk, “You have thirty seconds.”“I know how the Luposians entered the country,” Barry said hastily.Adrian came to a halt when he heard Barry’s words.Barry staggered and bumped into him.Adrian turned around and asked, “How did they enter the country?”Barry said, “I do not have solid evidence, but I do have a theory. The case of Luposians entering Southrive is closely related to Southrive’s River family.“The Rivers have a business deal with the Luposians and it is said that the Rivers profited a few million dollars from the deal.“You have to believe me, sir!”Barry chattered endlessl

Barry’s goal was to seek the legate’s mentorship.Yet, Adrian turned around and made a hand gesture for Barry to stop walking. He then said, “Your mother is calling you to go home for dinner. It’s good to have dreams, kid, but not all dreams can be achieved.“Stop following me.”Barry stood rooted to the ground as Adrian walked further and further away.As he gazed at Adrian’s departing silhouette, Barry called out, “Sir, I’ll show you my true capabilities and will solve the Luposia case for you!”Adrian ignored him because there were plenty of boastful people in the world these days.***“Huh? Aren’t you Barry?”Meanwhile, an Audi A4 drove up and stopped next to Barry.Samantha rolled down the window and looked at Barry standing by the sidewalk in puzzlement.She remembered the young man rather well because of how carefree he had seemed when he was being held hostage yesterday. He had a calmness that surpassed everyone else.Barry was surprised to see Samantha. “Why, hello,

Barry was startled by the unexpected change of situation.He began to struggle using his arms and legs. However, the person was extremely strong and he could not break free.The person only loosened their grip after Barry was dragged into the park.Barry immediately said in anger when he could speak, “Hey, there’s no bad blood between us and I don’t have any money on me. You’ve got the wrong guy…“Huh? Sir?”Barry was astonished when he saw who it was that had dragged him here.Adrian had his hands in his pockets as he stared at Barry.Barry felt a shiver down his spine and was at a loss of what to do under Adrian’s stare.Meanwhile, Adrian said, “Boy, if you dare to bring up the words ‘war legate’ to my wife and address her as Madam Legate ever again, I will punish you.”Adrian had witnessed the exchange between Samantha and Barry.The young man was constantly addressing Samantha as Madam Legate, which would eventually trigger her suspicions. Hence, Adrian took Barry to the

“Yes, sir!” Daniel answered.Beowulf heard the remark and roared, “You can’t do this to me, Legate! I’m the battle warrior of Luposia and should be allowed dignity! Just kill me right now!”Adrian chuckled and said, “Your dignity is worthless to me. Northrive Supermax is famous throughout the country. I don’t have the time to toy with you even if you want me to.“However, the warden there has plenty of time.”Northrive Supermax was a high-security prison built in a primitive forest.The most dangerous, malicious criminals and crime bosses of other countries were imprisoned there.No one knew the exact location of the supermax.Once the order was given, Beowulf was instantly taken away.Meanwhile, Adrian looked toward Mya and Daniel as he said, “Mya, Daniel, watch Southrive’s River family. I met someone today who claimed to have seen the Rivers unloading cargo at the port one night with Luposians at the scene.“Look into it and inform me immediately if you find anything.”“Yes

Harold, Leonard, and Wilfred were instantly infuriated when they saw Adrian entering the mansion.They bottled to their feet in unison.Leonard pointed at Adrian and shouted, “Who gave you permission to enter, Adrian?! Get out of here right now!”Adrian glanced at Leonard and made his way toward Harold.He did not sit down but he said, “Grandfather, the Xanders have been rather close with Southrive’s River family recently. I’m here today to tell you…”“What do you have to tell me?” asked Harold nonchalantly with a cold expression.“I would like to tell you that the Battle Warrior Department has linked the Luposia incident yesterday to the Rivers. I recommend you keep a distance from the Rivers in the upcoming days. If they are found to have committed treachery, your family will be affected too.“I know a thing or two about this situation so don’t say I didn’t warn you if things go south.”Upon saying that, Adrian turned around and left, leaving the Xanders with no chance to sco

“Block A of Alcyoneus Tower is one of the best locations in Swallow Central. It seems the department thinks highly of you,” Adrian remarked.“That’s right. That is a good location indeed. Swallow Central will be the busiest place in Swallowston when it opens. It’s just that…”“What is it?”“The name ‘Alcyoneus’ is rather old-fashioned, isn’t it? Why does the department give it such a name? Alcyoneus Tower? That sounds so lame!” Samantha could not refrain from complaining.Adrian smiled and poured Samantha a glass of water.He said, “Sit, Sam. Let me tell you the origin story of Alcyoneus Tower.”Samantha was astonished. ‘The tower has an origin story?’She hastily asked, “What’s the story?”Adrian answered, “Alcyoneus is a moniker used by the commander of the Gigantes Squadron, General Conrad Lowe. Gigantes was one of the best squadrons based in Southrive’s battle warrior headquarters.“In one of his battles, Alcyoneus was encircled by his enemies and was separated from the ma

Samantha had not expected Adrian to have such vast knowledge related to the Battle Warrior Department.It made her realize his strong points.They chatted for a while more until Samantha stood up and said, “All right. Enough with the chit-chat. Go get ready. We’re going out to eat tonight.“Riley, Elara, and the others have decided to hold a celebratory dinner tonight for New Paraiso’s move into Swallow Central. We can go after I’ve taken a shower.”Samantha was in a good mood today. She was happy that New Paraiso had gotten a spot in Swallow Central.Adrian nodded.Samantha said to Rue. “Come with us, Mother!”Rue gladly accepted the invite.***Samantha headed out with Adrian and Rue at eight in the evening after getting ready.She had instructed Elara and Riley to book a reservation at the hotel’s restaurant.The attendees of tonight’s dinner were the members of Mandy’s management team so it was rather important for Samantha.She realized that they had some time to spare
