She turned to Samantha and said, "Come, Sam, let us toast to our friendship. And to Adrian, for being here and being able to toast with you."Samantha got to her feet as well and said, "Jojo, just so you know, I can't drink too much. I'm preparing for pregnancy.”"Pfft… You're going to have a baby?" Joanna asked in surprise as she sputtered a bit of her drink. She never imagined that her best friend would be preparing to have a child at this very moment.Samantha nodded shyly as her cheeks reddened. "Adrian and I have been married for seven years, and we're not getting any younger. My mother-in-law has been urging me to have a child, and I want to have one as soon as possible while Adrian is still here."Joanna asked, "From your tone, does that mean he has to leave soon?"Samantha looked at Adrian and smiled. "Although he’s my husband, his heart doesn’t belong to me alone. The warriors of Wyvern Peak will always be a part of him."With the outlands being in a state of high tensio

Adrian was referring to Isla Zabel.Isla may have gotten married to a hero, but her life had not been as happy as she had imagined it to be.Samantha and Joanna could tell what Adrian was trying to say, so Joanna said, “Are you saying you don’t agree with women marrying warriors like yourself? Wouldn’t that mean many warriors will end up being bachelors then?“Still, the way I see it, there are loads of women who wish to marry them.”Adrian did not object to this statement. After all, it was true that many young and naive girls desperately wanted a warrior as a partner. However, history has proven that many spouses of such heroes would end up suffering a lot more torture than not. Putting aside the fact their homes would be empty and lonely, there was a huge chance they might end up becoming widows.Adrian shook his head and said, “It’s every person’s right to dream of an ideal life, but they shouldn’t indulge themselves in something unrealistic. I’ve seen too many deaths over the

“Gloria Thompson.”“Gloria Thompson…” Samantha quietly mumbled to herself.She felt that there was something strange about the name but was not able to quite put her finger on what it was. She asked, “Where is she now? Is she still at Wyvern Peak?”Joanna butted in and said, “I knew you’ve slept with another woman. Still, it’s no big deal, and I know Sam will forgive you if you come clean.“So, tell us… Where is she? Do you still miss her?”Adrian shook his head. “She’s buried on a nameless island to the northeast of Seatum. Her tombstone is made from a pile of rock. It’s been many years since she passed. In March last year, Imperial Capital built her an official mound. They also gave her a posthumous award for her achievements and the honorary title of Valkyrie.“She created a legend for herself and all her merits are recorded in Imperial Capital’s history books. However, nobody in the world knows who she is, nor will anyone hear of her. Just like that, she was silently laid to

A sense of gloom invaded the atmosphere.Samantha never once thought that she had another friend in the world whom she had never met and that she would never be able to catch up to everything Gloria had done for Adrian.They then lost all mood to enjoy their beers, probably because of how tragically Gloria went out.Samantha seemed to be in turmoil but nobody knew what she was thinking.Even Joanna, who was usually a huge talker, remained silent.How many people would actually be able to fathom that the decent lives they were living at that moment were due to the sacrifice of others?***The dinner ended in silence.Joanna was initially planning on getting dead drunk that night but ended up leaving without even finishing her beer.The trio then returned to their villa at Jewel Road, where Rue and Juno were already asleep. Joanna took a bath and then retired to her room while Adrian and Samantha returned to theirs.Adrian lay in bed and played a game on his phone while Samanth

Adrian replied, “I did think about going to the afterlife to accompany her, but as I said, there are many things in the world that I’m unable to change. I still had all of you waiting for me back home, which is why I was ultimately able to cast away those thoughts.”“Do you still miss her?” Samantha asked in a gentle voice.“Sometimes.” Adrian nodded.Seeming to have suddenly thought of something, Samantha left Adrian’s embrace and asked, “Do you have a photo of her? I’d like to see it.”Adrian pondered for a moment before nodding once more. He then took out his bag from the closet. It was the very same bag that he had with him when he returned from Wyvern Peak. He had never opened it ever since he returned.Samantha knew about the bag’s existence but she did not dare open it up without Adrian’s permission.He placed the bag on the bed and pulled open the zip before pulling out a makeup box from within and passing it to Samantha.“This was her favorite makeup box,” Adrian said.

Samantha felt that she needed to change from that day onward.She needed to be even more grateful for the life she had obtained after so much hardship.The couple proceeded to spend the rest of their night in silence.The next morning, Samantha and Adrian woke up early, with Samantha preparing to head to the office with Joanna now that she had a clear objective in mind.However, just as all three of them were about to leave the house after having breakfast together, a few cars sped toward their villa and came to a stop right outside. When the car doors opened, Violet, along with Francis, Hugo, and Nathan got out of the car.Judging by the situation, they were most likely there to look for Samantha.Clara was following them from behind, her face filled with a huge smile. When she got home yesterday, she told Violet about how Samantha was now living in a villa at Jewel Road.Violet had been hoping to live at Jewel Road for the longest time so she was surprised when she found out t

“Shut up, Adrian! This has nothing to do with you, you deadbeat!”Violet slammed her cane on the floor as she yelled.Adrian chose not to waste his time with the old woman out of respect for her seniority.Samantha then said, “I’m in a rush to get to the office, Grandmother. If it isn’t anything urgent, I’ll come and visit you when I get off work later.”Violet became furious. “Are you trying to chase me away?!”Samantha did not mean to do such a thing, but what could she possibly do if Violet was trying to pick a bone with her?“That’s not what I’m trying to do, Grandmother. I really have urgent matters to attend to at the office today so whatever it is you need from me, please just say it.”“Preposterous! Is that any way to speak to your grandmother?!”Samantha felt helpless, understanding that there was nothing she could do to Violet since the woman was her grandmother. Violet could do literally anything to her but she could not do the same in return.Just as Samantha had n

The truth was that Clara had told Violet yesterday that Samantha was living at One Jewel Road so the Cowells came up with a plan to move into the villa, kick Samantha out of the place, and turn it into their own.Their plan was to use Violet having to be sent to an elderly home as an excuse to rope Samantha in. They would then make Samantha accept Violet into her villa and get her to take care of Violet for a year.Shortly after that, Francis was to move into the place on the pretense he wanted to take care of Violet too, quickly followed by Nathan, Hugo, and the rest. Ultimately, all the Cowells would move into the villa and come up with a way to kick both Samantha and Adrian out of the place.This was why they had come today.***The Cowells grew red in the face when Joanna saw through their plans so easily. Still, that did not stop them from executing their plans and setting them in motion.Violet said, “I’m old, Samantha. I can’t walk as well as I used to so you and everyone
