The Return of the War Legate Chapter 112
Alas, Samantha’s show of respect was not received in kind.“Who are you to call me ‘grandfather?’ I don’t acknowledge you,” Harold admonished.Leonard had a menacing look on his face as he angrily said, “Drop the act, Samantha. What makes you think you’re worthy of being a Xander?”He then shot an even angrier look at Adrian before he stepped up and said, “I was just about to find you to settle a score for beating up my son, Adrian.”Samantha was initially embarrassed, but instantly became confused when she heard what Leonard said.‘Adrian beat up Cedric? When?’“I’d advise you to mind your tone, Leonard. You’re free to disregard my father as your sibling, which means I’m also free to disregard you as my relative,” Adrian retorted.After that, he took hold of Samantha’s hand. “Let’s go.”Samantha nodded, not wanting to be involved with the Xanders either.Cecilia watched as the couple walked into the club and said, “Father, that was so rude of them. Do they even have any respe

At that moment, Adrian was exuding a dangerously threatening air.His intent to kill was so strong that it could no longer be suppressed.Wilfred was terrified. In fact, all the Xanders were too stunned for words when they felt Adrian’s murderous intent.Samantha was the one person Adrian would not allow anyone to speak ill of. It did not matter if the person was the king himself. He would kill the person who dared humiliate his sweet Sam.“Let go of him, Adrian.” Samantha had no idea he would end up exuding such a strong temperament. She desperately wanted to pull him away when she saw how genuinely mad he was, afraid he might end up doing something unforgivable.Yet, Adrian did not loosen his grip. Once more, he asked Wilfred to repeat what he had said.But Wilfred was too frightened to repeat those words. Instead, he started panicking and said, “Let go of me, Adrian! Let go of me right now!”“I said, repeat yourself. You have three seconds.” Adrian looked at him coldly.“I’m

Harold took in a deep breath, while Leonard and the others stood around in embarrassment.Up till a moment ago, all of them seemed to have seen their life flash before their eyes thanks to Adrian’s murderous intent.***Samantha finally heaved a sigh of relief when they entered the club.For the briefest of moments, she felt that Adrian had turned into a completely different person. So much so that he felt like a complete stranger to her.She turned around to look at him. “Adrian, you have to stay calm next time. Wilfred’s your uncle at the end of the day. Imagine what others will think of you if they hear about what happened?”Samantha was the kind of person who cared very much about reputation. However, Adrian did not care about that in the slightest.“I’m already notorious throughout Swallowston, so I don’t care about any of that. All I care about is that Wilfred pays the price for humiliating you.”Samantha felt helpless for a moment, choosing to not comment on the matter a

Adrian had many candidates in mind, but one particular person should prove to be of great help to Samantha.Adrian turned to look at Samantha and said, “Riley.”“Riley?”Samantha was really surprised when she heard this name, naturally knowing who Riley was since the woman was a Xander.Although she and Riley had not interacted with each other much, she could tell that Riley was the only one of the Xanders with a decent personality.The fact that Adrian brought up Riley’s name was proof that he acknowledged her.But…“Will she join me though?” Samantha asked in a worried tone.‘Adrian’s been at odds with his family for the longest time, so I doubt Riley will agree to help even if I asked.’Adrian simply smiled and said, “We’ll never know what she’ll say until we try.”‘He’s right. Plus, Riley is indeed a capable woman,’ Samantha thought.Riley had graduated from a reputable university and even learned a thing or two from Henry when she had been under his tutelage.“Should w

Adrian and Samantha soon arrived at the diner.There were quite a number of patrons that night. They found a table and sat down before Adrian ordered three meals.They waited for a while. Not long after, a BMW parked outside the diner. Riley walked into the diner wearing a pair of shorts and exuded a matured air of beauty.“Riley!” Samantha called out upon spotting her.Riley cracked a smile and walked toward them. She took the seat opposite Adrian and Samantha. “Sam, Adrian, how are both of you doing?”Samantha nodded. “We’re pretty good.”“Great,” Riley said with a smile.Upon saying that, she looked at Adrian who was slurping up his pasta. She wanted to say something yet she could not think of what to say.Adrian beckoned her and said, “Eat up. Otherwise, it’ll get cold.”Riley smiled, picked up her cutlery, and ate.Samantha ate her pasta as well. The three of them did not speak and the atmosphere was growing awkward.It was fortunate that Adrian was around. Samantha wai

Riley was rather surprised.She had not expected Samantha to have such strong willpower to get back on her feet again after being bullied by the Cowells.On top of that, she had managed to secure investments again.Riley was hesitant as she was faced with Samantha’s sincerity.As she was pondering, Adrian said to her, “You know very well that the Xanders won’t make progress.”Riley knew that her family would not go far. Starting from Harold to the bottom of the family tree, every one of them bore the same stripes.“Riley.” Samantha reached for Riley’s hand with an earnest expression on her face.Riley was struggling deep inside. She realized that this was a chance for her.Soon, Riley nodded heavily. “I accept your offer to join your company, Sam.”Samantha was instantly excited to hear Riley’s remark. She grabbed Riley’s little hand and placed it on her chest.Samantha said, “Riley, let’s work hard together from now on. I believe that it won’t be long until we establish the

Adrian picked up the call. “Yes?”“Sir, we spotted some Luposians in Southrive today. I secretly looked into them and I speculate that they’re assassins sent by Luposia,” said Daniel.“How many?” asked Adrian.Daniel said, “As of this moment, I’m not too sure. I’m still investigating. Lucas won’t be in Swallowston for the next two days so my advice is to keep a close watch over your wife, sir.”Luposia had always been hostile against Navia. They had lost quite many people in the incessant wars over the past two years. It was highly plausible that they would send assassins to Southrive.As for their motive, Daniel was still trying to figure out if they were sent to assassinate Adrian or Lucas.Adrian said, “Noted. Continue your investigation and notify me immediately if there are any updates.”“Yes, sir.” Daniel hung up the call upon saying that.Meanwhile, Samantha walked out of the bathroom wearing a pale blue-colored nightgown and asked in puzzlement, “Who were you talking to

Samantha was astonished.She had not expected to receive two thousand computers from Liam of Nine Kings on top of a full set of office furniture from Mandy.Samantha was astounded beyond comparison.“Sam, it seems that Mr. Liam thinks very highly of you. He believes that you’re capable so he wants to help you out. You should quickly thank him and his people,” Adrian urged as he observed the astonishment on her face.Samantha hastily said, “I’m very grateful for Mr. Liam’s gift. Please come upstairs with me and have a cup of coffee. Thank you for taking the trouble to do this, everyone.”The middle-aged man passed a receipt to Samantha. “Thank you, but we’ll skip the coffee, miss. Please sign the receipt so we can head back and report to Mr. Liam.”“Sure thing.” Samantha quickly signed her name on the receipt.The middle-aged man said, “Thank you so much, Ms. Samantha.“Everyone, unload the computers.“Where should we put them, miss?”“You can just place them in the lobby firs
