Rue seemed rather concerned.Samantha put down her bag and leaned against the sofa. “We went to the nursing home today and found a safe that Father-in-law left behind in the basement. Inside, we found some documents he had written.“The documents are intact, and we’ve even made a copy of it. I’m going to take over his previous research and realize the dream he couldn’t finish,” Samantha replied.Rue was touched by Samantha’s words, wiping off her tears as she sat down. She had no idea what to say at that moment.At the time, Henry’s greatest wish was to complete his research and find a cure for cancer, but that wish was ultimately dashed.Now, her daughter-in-law was going to continue her husband’s wish by forming a research team.Rue was so touched. She was certain that Samantha was the best daughter-in-law in the world.“Don’t cry, Mother.” Samantha helped Rue wipe her tears when she saw Rue’s tearful face.Rue nodded and spoke with a hoarse voice, “Let’s eat.”Samantha agre
Samantha overheard Daniel’s message and asked, “Was that General Daniel’s voice?”Adrian nodded. “I asked him to help me find out where Richie is and he agreed. I suppose you could say we’re well acquainted with each other after I helped him out at the opening of Swallow Central.”“Really?” Samantha asked, feeling a little skeptical.She may not have been able to see through Adrian’s lies the first few times, but it had gotten much easier for her recently.Samantha had no idea what was going on with Adrian, but she could tell that her husband was hiding something from her.***After half an hour, Samantha arrived at Dream City which Daniel had mentioned.Lights of every color shined in this part of Swallowston, signaling the start of the residents’ nightlife.This place was known to be the headquarters of Swallowston’s underworld.The nightclub was built beneath the ground, and it was a huge place where both men and women would spend their time.Many women had gained a life o
‘An invitation?’Adrian was confused, while Samantha whispered, “I heard that you need an invite to get inside. It’s to show that you’ve been invited by a friend, and that friend will receive a reward from Dream City.“This place is rather well hidden, so the way they keep up the hype is by having their regulars invite their friends.”Adrian finally understood what was happening. He ransacked his pockets before smiling as he said, “What do I do if I haven’t got one?”The two bouncers at the door exchanged looks and angrily said, “Are you here to waste our time, you little sh*t? Fine, we can let you in, but you’ll have to let us take a peek at your pretty lady here.“Otherwise, get lost.”Before they even barely finished speaking, Adrian had already grabbed them by their necks. He pinned each of them down with one hand.Adrian had sprung into action so quickly that Samantha was taken aback, not expecting him to try and get in through brute force.“Are you crazy?!” Samantha cried
In a luxurious room inside Dream City, a man in his fifties was playing Russian Roulette with more than a dozen others.This man was none other than Richie Kent, who had changed his name to Richard Lane.Richie was having fun when his walkie-talkie suddenly beeped.“Mr. Richard, a couple has barged into our premises!”Richie picked up his walkie-talkie and asked, “They barged in here? Why are you coming to me with something so trivial? Just kill them.”“Yes, sir!”Richie laughed and said to his friends, “Come, let’s continue our game!”Meanwhile, Adrian and Samantha had entered the nightclub, where the music was deafening and countless men and women having fun. There were many people playing games, having drinks at the bar, and raving on the dance floor.No doubt, the majority of people there were young women accompanying young, wealthy men as they gambled the night away.Samantha felt as though her eyes were being burned with all kinds of images she should not be looking at.
Dream City’s main lobby was in chaos, with everyone running for their lives.As each bouncer screamed and fell over, Adrian was further drenched in bright red blood.Samantha’s mind had gone completely blank. She covered her mouth as she watched Adrian relentlessly kill his enemies like a ferocious beast.Within mere minutes, more than thirty bouncers were laying in a pool of blood. The other bouncers were stunned when they saw this and did not dare to step forward.In fact, they were taking very careful steps backward.“H-He’s mad.”“Quick! Go inform the boss!” someone shouted.Drenched in blood, Adrian released his clenched fists and took a step forward. All of the bouncers around him hastily retreated, none of them daring to make any moves that might cost them their lives.The partygoers were now hiding behind sofas, tables, and chairs, while Adrian continued to walk forward.With every step he made, the bouncers trembled even more.***Richie was playing chess in the Sta
Right after the man spoke, Adrian sent the bottle in his hands flying, cleanly slashing through the man’s throat.The body count had gone up by one.“He’s crazy!”“This little sh*t’s gone nuts!”“Kill him!”Everyone yelled, and hundreds of men charged toward the pair, completely ignorant of the kind of person they were going up against at that moment.With ferocious yells, the bouncers charged toward Adrian, who immediately started fighting back.Everything seemed like a dream to Samantha as she watched Adrian slaughter all of the people charging at him like the grim reaper. He exuded such a ferocious temperament as if he could move both Heaven and Earth at will.Like a phantom, Adrian sent each and every one of them sprawling to the ground, screaming in agony. Some of them were even dead.Adrian had shown such power and violence that everyone inside Dream City was shaken.“He’s really strong. There’s nobody in our ranks who can defeat him!”“Get your guns out!”“He’s right
Adrian beckoned menacingly toward the surrounding bouncers and they quickly backed down.Richie got to his feet to face Adrian.Adrian smiled and asked, “Richie Kent?”“Wh-what?” Richie took two steps back and his face turned ghastly pale with fear.He had already changed his name for more than seven years and no one since then had come to know his real name.Richie felt an ineffable sense of fear at Adrian’s question. He felt as if he was completely defenseless at this very moment.He backed away continuously as cold sweat drenched his body. He looked at Adrian and said, “What… What are you talking about? I don’t understand what you’re saying. If you’re looking for someone named Richie Kent, well, you’re in the wrong place.”“Wrong place huh?” Adrian said, feeling amused.“Yes, you’re in the wrong place,” Richie said as he nodded.Richie was frantically trying to figure out who this person was. He felt that Adrian looked familiar yet he could not remember where he had seen Ad
The sound of footsteps was heard coming from the outside.To everyone’s astoundment, the Battle Warrior Department charged into Dream City with their guns up. There were more than one hundred people led by Daniel.Following the arrival of the department’s personnel, Richie’s bouncers put down the weapons in their hands and quickly backed away one by one.Some had even put their hands behind their heads and got on their knees.“Take control of the scene!”“Everyone, get on your knees with your hands behind your heads!” roared Daniel.“Everyone! Men and women! On your knees!”All the bouncers, the moguls spending time in Dream City, and the beautiful women there got on their knees with their hands behind their heads followed by a series of chaotic noises.Adrian quietly sat on the sofa sipping his wine.Daniel walked over and waved as he shouted, “Get rid of the bodies!”About a dozen people began cleaning the scene that was in a mess from Adrian’s fight.Daniel made his way t
