Samantha was taken aback upon hearing Danton’s request.She said, “I’m unaware that my father-in-law left behind any information when he was still alive. I have no clue about this.”Samantha shook her head. She knew that Henry had been in the pharmaceutical business in the past, yet she had no idea that he had made any sort of breakthrough.“Samantha, you were still young at that time so it’s understandable that you don’t know about it,” said Danton.Then, he added, “Adrian and you were probably eleven or twelve when Henry was involved in this. His research lasted for seven years so he must have discovered something important.“Even though we have yet to develop a special medicine that can cure cancer at this point, I believe that Henry can help us avoid taking detours and shorten the timeline by a few years.“We need that data.”Samantha was very surprised and said, “Mr. Danton, I do not have the slightest clue about this matter. However, even if Henry did leave behind that kin
“Sure, we can ask her,” answered Adrian.Samantha silently ruminated over the matter.***Soon, it was time to get off work after bustling about in New Paraiso for the day.Samantha and Adrian went home eagerly.Dinner was almost done. Rue would have dinner prepared on time almost every day so that her son and daughter-in-law could eat as soon as they got home. She would cook different types of dishes every day and would always be thinking up new recipes.Samantha said to Rue over dinner, “Mother, I have something to ask you and I hope you will answer me truthfully.”“What is it, Sam?” Rue asked.“Did Father-in-law set up a scientific research team to find a cure for cancer in the past?” Samantha asked eagerly.Rue’s hand trembled upon hearing this. She instantly grew restless and replied brusquely, “Sam, why are you asking about this?”Sensing that there was something off about Rue’s expression, Samantha hastily said, “What do you know about it, Mother? Tell me.”“Sam, I do
Rue never expected that this matter from all those years to be brought up again someday.The majority of the participants from that time had already vanished without a trace.Rue kept the matter to herself and she was not prepared to tell anyone about it. Yet, she had not expected Danton would pay a visit to Samantha and ignite her curiosity like a fuse lighter.“Tell us, Mother!” Adrian could not refrain from saying again after seeing Rue’s miserable state.Rue wiped away her tears and said, “Your father told me to keep this matter to myself before he passed away. Adaline and you are absolutely not allowed to investigate this matter.“Adrian, there’s an influential person involved in this matter that we can’t afford to offend or contend with. Even if I were to tell you, you won’t be able to find him.”Adrian said, “I will mobilize the ten battle warriors and turn over all of Navia if I have to. Those who I seek won’t be able to run away for long. Just tell me!”Rue wiped her te
Adrian inhaled a deep breath upon hearing Rue’s story.Samantha shut her eyes as well. It was said that Henry had passed away from an illness but she had not expected that this was how he had gotten sick.Then, Rue said, “Henry hid some data and information before his passing. Afterward, the lab was dissolved and the nursing home was deserted. Je told me not to tell you about this incident.”“What else did he say?” asked Adrian.“Your father said that Mr. V is a very powerful man and that we’re no match for him. Hence, I did not tell you about this so you won’t try to seek revenge.”“Where’s Richie then? Where did Richie go afterward?” asked Samantha. Rue shook her head. “Richie went missing after his deal with Mr. V. I don’t know why Mr. V didn’t utilize the recipe when he acquired it. It’s possible that the recipe contained some sort of error but there’s been no news about it until today.”Rue wondered, “It’s possible that Mr. V didn’t use the medicine because he discovered t
Danton was extremely astonished upon receiving Samantha’s call.He suggested Samantha call the Battle Warrior Department immediately to open up an investigation. Other than that, he expressed his willingness to help her in investigating this matter.However, Samantha did not call up the department for fear that it would affect Adrian’s mood.***Samantha barely slept that night.Early morning the next day, Adrian was already gone by the time she woke up.Samantha washed up quickly and drove out to chase after Adrian. She knew that he must be heading to the nursing home.Rue’s expression showed that she was in agony as she looked at her son and daughter-in-law leaving in succession.Her husband had never rested in peace all this time.She could no longer hide the truth that Henry had made her promise to not tell anyone. She had no idea how the future would turn out now that the truth was out.Meanwhile, Adrian was on his way to Swallowston Nursing Home.Samantha was already g
Upon saying that, Adrian got out of the car and strode into the construction site.The man was instantly flustered and said to him, “You’re not allowed to enter here.”He wanted to step forward and stop Adrian, but Adrian turned around and said, “I’m not joking around with you. Get your site manager to come to speak to me. Don’t make me repeat myself.”Adrian’s gaze was filled with a ferocity that scared the man out of his wits.On the other hand, Adrian had already walked into the construction site.Then, Adrian clapped and approached a construction worker to ask, “Who’s the foreman here?”The worker pointed out a man.Adrian made his way to the foreman without the slightest hesitation and said, “Are you the foreman?”The foreman took a puzzled glance at Adrian and asked, “That’s me. Why? Are you looking for a job?”“Send word to halt all works,” Adrian ordered.The foreman was a middle-aged man about forty years old.He found Adrian’s remark ridiculous. “Who the f*ck are y
Samantha attempted to stop Adrian by pulling at him, but he simply shoved her away.The foreman covered his face and was struggling to get on his feet.Adrian grabbed him by his collar as soon as he got up and hoisted him into the air with one hand.He said, “Get everyone to stop working. Are you deaf or blind? Answer me!”Thud!Upon saying that, Adrian gave the foreman’s belly another punch.The foreman was shaking from head to toe and his legs kicked frantically in mid-air. He opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood.“I… I’ll get them to stop working.” The foreman yielded and lost the courage to continue his stubborn act.“Why didn’t you do so earlier?” Adrian asked.The foreman stuttered and simply stared at Adrian. He was at a loss for words.Adrian swung a kick and the foreman flew before landing on the ground. Adrian clapped and beckoned to the foreman. “Do it.”The foreman got up from the ground. Holding onto his belly, he shouted, “Stop working! Everybody,
“Be careful, everyone. Safety first,” said Samantha to those people.Danton’s subordinates entered the nursing home and searched for the basement entrance. The rest of the people stayed behind, waiting for orders.Riley and Elara walked over. They inspected the area around the nursing home with a few security guards from New Paraiso.The crowd anxiously waited for an update.Meanwhile, Samantha said to Danton, “Oh, Mr. Danton, are you acquainted with the president of Gamma Construction? My husband beat up one of their employees earlier and I’m worried that…”“Beat up one of their employees?” Danton was surprised. He turned around and glanced at Adrian who stood not far away from him.In truth, Danton had always thought rather highly of Adrian. When Henry was still alive, Adrian excelled at school in every area. He had even claimed that Adrian would certainly grow up to be a successful man.It was a waste that the situation had not turned out as he had expected. Adrian was suffer
