Samantha felt rather vexed that she just realized this now.“Adrian, why didn’t you tell me about this earlier?” asked Samantha as she looked at Adrian in a daze.“I was afraid that you wouldn’t be able to accept it.”“You silly boy. Why wouldn’t I?”Samantha took a deep breath and said in a calm tone, “I’m sorry that I haven’t been treating you well during this period. You did so many things for me, yet I didn’t notice anything.”Adrian smiled and said, “You’re my wife. Do I need to be appreciated for doing something for my wife?”“If that’s the case, I have something else I’d like to ask,” said Samantha when she recalled something.“Go ahead.”“What’s with the medallion you showed Loid yesterday?” asked Samantha.Adrian was silent for some time upon hearing this question.Then, he turned his head and said to her with a smile, “It’s a Battle Warrior Medallion that Lucas gifted to me. The sight of this medallion is equal to meeting Lucas in person.“No one in Swallowston, or

Adrian smiled and wrapped his arm around Samantha upon seeing her actions.Suddenly, Samantha pulled off Adrian’s top and planted a soft kiss on his scar-covered chest.***The incident at Dream City spread throughout Swallowston overnight.Many people learned that the nightclub’s owner was killed in his own establishment and the underground world that had been active in Swallowston for many years was eliminated by the Battle Warrior Department at last.The Xanders were having dinner at home when they learned about the news.“Have you heard about the Battle Warrior Department eliminating Dream City about an hour ago? Even the owner was killed on the scene,” Wilfred said to the other Xanders as they ate.“Yes, the club has been shut down by the department for real. The whole city is shocked by the news of this incident.”“Do you know why the department would take action on the club out of nowhere?”“I have no clue.”The Xanders began discussing in succession.Meanwhile, Leona

“What?!”The Xanders were shocked and their eyes widened in surprise.‘Adrian single-handedly killed his way into Dream City?!’Cecilia asked anxiously, “What happened next?”Leonard inhaled a deep breath and said, “Afterward, Daniel arrived with a troop of Battle Warrior Department personnel. Richie then admitted to causing Henry’s death and was hence executed on the spot.“His head has been placed on Henry’s headstone as an offering.”Harold grew restless from the shock and his body shook. He had always assumed that his youngest son died from contracting an illness. He had not expected there to be a scheme behind Henry’s death.“Richie caused the death of my son and he deserves to die!” Harold slammed the table with a loud bang and was extremely furious.“Leonard, so it was Adrian who caused the incident in Dream City today huh?” Wilfred mused.“That’s right. Adrian got Richie killed to avenge Henry. Quite a number of people died today and they were all Richie’s subordinates

Upon hearing Adrian’s remark, Harold sordidly stared at Henry’s lonely-looking headstone.Even though there was bad blood between Harold and Adrian, and though he despised Rue, it was still his son buried in this grave.Ever since Henry was buried here, Harold had barely come to visit. He suddenly felt a tug of pain in his heart when he learned about the incident that had taken place in Dream City tonight.He had always assumed that his son died from an illness, but he suddenly learned that someone had murdered his son.Harold had been very fond of Henry because Henry established Paraiso all by himself and built a strong foundation for the Xander’s influence. In fact, Henry had also helped him to establish the Xander Group which was ranked among the top most powerful enterprises.Harold vaguely remembered how he had cried hysterically when he learned about Henry’s illness.Afterward, Leonard and Wilfred came to see him about Henry’s inheritance.Leonard and Wilfred felt that Adr

Harold suddenly realized that this young grandson of his was now a fully grown man.“I’ve already lost your father. I didn’t want to lose my other two sons,” Harold answered in a trembling voice.Adrian found Harold’s remark amusing. He got on his knees and pulled out the weeds that were growing around Henry’s grave. “You used my mother, my sister, and seven years of my life to exchange for a luxurious life for Leonard and Wilfred’s families.“Harold, you did well. You did very well indeed.”“W-Will you forgive me?” Harold asked, “Adrian, Cedric, and Jacob are already injured from you beating them up. I admit that I shouldn’t have done what I did, but I only did it for your two uncles.“Can we go back to the way we were before?” Harold pleaded.“I always thought that your father died from an illness. I only learned today that someone caused his death. If I had known, I would’ve looked into it. Rue didn’t tell me about any of this.”Harold was still trying to defend himself.He

Leonard and Wilfred were planning something that would affect their future.***Leonard and Wilfred immediately went looking for Harold when the latter returned the next day.Leonard asked, “Where did you go, Father? You were out all night.”Wilfred continued, “Yeah, we were worried sick.”Harold was in a foul mood.His third son’s killer had gotten off scot-free over the past seven years despite everything he had done, causing Harold, the father, to be struck with a heavy blow.“Am I supposed to report my whereabouts to you?” Harold said, sounding extremely displeased.After that, he continued and said, “I went to visit Henry’s grave. How did neither of you realize that someone had gotten him killed? And you two call yourselves his brothers?“Have you no shame?”Leonard and Wilfred were overcome with shame.Leonard then said, “How could we have known, Father? Rue was the one who chose not to tell us when she clearly knew the truth.“We swear Richie wouldn’t have gotten awa

“Agreed!”***Something very strange happened in Swallowston over the next two days.Harold called for a board meeting at the Xander Group. He announced his retirement and that Leonard, his eldest son, would become the next director, while Wilfred would handle all matters related to Paraiso.The board of directors objected to Harold’s decision, but that was when something strange happened.Jaden from the River family pumped in another seven million and three hundred thousand dollars into the Xander Group, buying out the majority of the shares and kicking out almost everyone on the board.Shortly after, Jaden came to hold forty-nine percent share within just two days, owning only two percent less than Leonard.A lot of people unrelated to the company were shocked when they heard this, believing that the Xander Group would be taken over by the River Group very soon.Two days later, as Samantha and Adrian were having breakfast, Samantha learned about what was happening at the Xand

Adrian left home after that.Samantha was originally planning on stopping him but decided against it in the end.‘Ever since he came home, he seems very confident in himself every time he says he’s going to do something…’***Meanwhile, Riley happened to run into Adrian, the latter having just left the neighborhood.She stopped her car and rolled down her window. “Where are you going, Adrian?”Seeing Riley, Adrian walked toward her car and said, “I’m just about to head over to Paraiso. What are you doing here?”“I was just about to go looking for you.”Adrian gestured and Riley nodded before they left the neighborhood together.Inside the car, Riley said as she drove, “Do you know that both Paraiso and the Xander Group have been handed over to my father and Uncle Wilfred?”Adrian nodded his head. “I do.”Riley continued, “Jaden has booted all of the company’s investors, turning himself into the second largest investor. You know what he’s aiming for, don’t you?”Jaden wanted
