Adrian headed to the Battle Warrior Department after leaving home.Daniel was in a meeting when Adrian walked into the room. The former quickly ended the meeting and beckoned everyone to leave. He made his way to Adrian and asked, “Sir, is there anything I can help you with?”Adrian asked, “Has the woman named Reiss returned to Northrive?”He had ordered Daniel to arrange for someone to watch Reiss over the past few days. After all, Adrian did not know Reiss’ innermost thoughts because she was still a part of the De Forrest family.Adrian would kill her without the slightest hesitation if she wished to protect her father. He would not make others sacrifice themselves because of this matter even if they had a personal relationship with him.Daniel said, “She hasn’t returned to Northrive but she spent the night in north Swallowston’s Cloucliff yesterday. She’s still there and hasn’t left.”“Cloucliff?”“Yes, sir.”Cloucliff was a cliff on Swallowston’s Mount Cirro. It was a sceni

Suddenly, Reiss heard the sound of footsteps coming from behind her. Someone was approaching.She hastily turned around and saw Adrian coming up behind her. He was carrying a takeaway box that he passed to her.Reiss hesitated for a moment upon seeing the takeaway meal. Then, she took it and eagerly began devouring the food.Adrian passed her a bottle of water and said, “Eat slowly. No one is going to take it from you.”Reiss missed two meals since last night. An ordinary person would be starving from missing two meals. She took a sip of water and felt her starvation slowly fade.Adrian sat down next to her and said, “I know what you’re thinking. I told you before that there are many things in this world that one just can’t help.“You don’t have to go home if you don’t want to,” Adrian added as he looked at her.“If I don’t go home, what will I do? If my parents are in jail, how will I live on my own?” Reiss asked with a hoarse voice.All of a sudden, she clutched Adrian’s hand

“Aaaah!” Reiss instinctively screamed when she sensed herself falling.Cloucliff was fifty meters in height at the very least. Even if one were to survive the fall, one would be seriously injured.Adrian grabbed Reiss’ arms as their bodies were suspended in midair. Then, he exerted strength to fling her upward.Reiss crashed into the ground above while Adrian dropped straight down.“Adrian!” Reiss shouted as she lay on the ground.All of a sudden, a glint was seen emanating from the bottom of the cliff. In the next moment, Adrian had already risen into the air and landed steadily in front of Reiss.In fact, Reiss did not even have the time to understand the situation before Adrian was already back up on the cliff.He casually placed a call. “Cloucliff collapsed. Barricade the area with caution tape to prevent people from coming in.”“Yes, sir.”Reiss glared at him but made no comment. Instead, she asked, “Who are you taking me to meet?”“You’ll know when we get there.”***

Adrian left the Battle Warrior Department and headed to New Paraiso.He planned to spend the rest of the day in Samantha’s office because he had nothing else to do.He found her working quietly in her office upon his arrival. The sight of her being extremely quiet was extremely enticing.Samantha had a button nose, cherry lips, and a snowy white, delicate complexion. She exuded a mature presence and her figure was curvaceous. It would be appropriate to name her the most beautiful woman in Swallowston.“You’re here, dear.” Samantha beamed upon noticing Adrian’s arrival.He nodded and took a seat on the sofa in her office. He pulled out his phone and began to play games on his phone out of boredom. Samantha paid him no attention and continued to work quietly.However, it was at this exact moment that the door to Samantha’s office was suddenly shoved open. Joanna rushed into the room anxiously and said, “Something bad happened, Sam!”She then noticed Adrian. “Oh, you’re here too, A

“The Battle Warrior Department will make its own arrangements. However, this case has always been managed by Internal Affairs. If the Department were to intervene mid-way, it’d be blamed if anything bad were to happen.”Adrian did not wish to help to clean up Internal Affairs’ mess. However, he could not just ignore the matter because he was worried about Mandy’s safety.He added, “I’ve already assigned Daniel to get in touch with Swallowston’s Internal Affairs. I’d have to find out their plan before I can determine Sheldon's goal. This is the best way to handle the situation. Mandy is still safe for the time being because Sheldon won’t hurt her just yet.”Joanna and Samantha were panic-stricken upon hearing Adrian’s remark. If something bad were to happen to Mandy, Swallowston would be greatly affected.However, Samantha was not too worried because Adrian was on it. After all, her husband was the dignified War Legate Draco!They stayed in the office for a while.***The details

The phone rang.Soon, a lazy voice was heard coming from the other end of the call. “Hello.”A middle-aged man was seated in the office, and his name was Byron Wulf.Byron was the deputy chief secretary of Internal Affairs and was ranked second among the figures of authority in Swallowston.Daniel said, “Where’s the chief secretary?”Upon hearing Daniel’s question, Byron said, “Who are you? Why do you want to speak to the chief secretary?”This man was supposed to be the dignified deputy chief secretary, yet, he failed to recognize Daniel’s voice.Daniel frowned upon the realization and said, “This is Daniel Summers—the representative of the Battle Warrior Department.”“Ah, I see.”Upon hearing Daniel’s self-introduction, Byron hastily chuckled and said, “It’s you huh, General Daniel. I’m sorry I didn’t recognize your voice as we’ve never met in person.”“I’d like to speak to the chief secretary.”“The chief isn’t here,” Byron said, “You can speak to me if there’s anything t

Daniel made a call to the first guardian.After the call was picked up, a staff member of the City Guardian Division said, “Mr. Daniel, the first guardian is away on a business trip and isn’t in Swallowston at the moment. Also, the Guardians don’t have the authority to mobilize the federation guard without orders from Internal Affairs.“We’re only allowed to offer reinforcements upon receiving orders from Internal Affairs. This matter isn’t under the Guardians’ jurisdiction. We need Internal Affairs to take action first by dispatching the order. Only then are we allowed to act.”***Ten minutes later, Adrian was waiting for an update in Samantha’s office at New Paraiso.Daniel’s call came. He said, “Sir, I’ve made the calls. They’re claiming that the chief secretary and the first guardian are away on business trips. Internal Affairs and the Guardians are pushing the responsibility to one another and neither of them has any intention of taking action. It looks like the Battle Warri

Samantha wanted to speak but she stopped herself.Both Internal Affairs and the City Guardian Division refused to partake in this case so Mandy would surely be doomed if Adrian did not save her.Samantha inhaled a deep breath as she watched Adrian head downstairs. Joanna squeezed her hand and said in a comforting manner, “Don’t worry, Sam. Adrian is the legate—the most powerful man in the world!”Just as Joanna said, Samantha looked forward to her husband’s performance and she was very proud of him. She had a man that countless women in this world wanted but could not have.Meanwhile, Adrian walked out of New Paraiso while Daniel had already assigned someone to send him his equipment. He changed into his full black battle suit as he walked and got into a car soon afterward.Samantha and Joanna stood by the window of the office and watched as Adrian got into the car and left.***The incident of Sheldon abducting Mandy had stirred fear in everyone’s heart. Not many people could b
