The Return of the War Legate Chapter 193
“Do you think he got away, Mr. Jaden?” asked one of the bodyguards.“F*ck! He runs fast… Go, find him!” Jaden yelled, “He can’t be allowed to leave here alive!”After that, the group began searching for Barry once more.Adrian finally released his hand from Barry’s mouth when Jaden and the others were gone.Barry heaved a sigh of relief and said, “Sir, y-you have to arrest that guy. He’s Jaden Rivers from the River family from Southrive, and something’s fishy going on with that luxurious hotel of theirs!” Adrian simply looked Barry up and down. “Are you hurt?”Only then did Barry realize he had been shot in the back.“I…” Feeling the pain creeping up on him, Barry’s face turned extremely pale.“Didn’t I tell you to stay away? What were you doing there? The Battle Warrior Department will investigate this. You shouldn’t be meddling in their affairs.”After Adrian said that, he quickly brought Barry away from the roof.***Samantha and Rue had waited for approximately seven mi

Barry scratched his head in embarrassment when he heard this.Indeed, he had been too naive, but he was amazed at how calmly Adrian was able to analyze the situation.After getting Barry to the hospital, Adrian told Samantha and Rue to head home while he waited there. After the women had left, Adrian dialed Daniel’s number, asking him to bring a few men to where he was.Daniel and his men arrived at the hospital in under ten minutes.Adrian explained the situation to Daniel and the others at the hospital’s stairwell. “Find an inmate on death row and execute him. After that, put Barry’s clothes on the body and leave it on the alley’s roof.“Someone should find it soon enough and report it to the department. Make sure that Jaden is aware and thinks that the man from last night is dead.”Adrian did this because he wanted Jaden and the Luposians to lower their guard.Daniel nodded upon receiving his instructions and said, “Understood, sir.”“Arrange for a few men to pay a visit to

“Okay, I promise.”“I want you to swear that you’ll cut all ties to the Xanders. What am I supposed to do if this thing blows up in our faces?”Samantha was still worried about the Xanders. ‘If the Rivers are in cahoots with the Luposians, I’m sure it’s only a matter of time before the Xanders get into trouble.‘Adrian, being Harold’s grandson, might end up being dragged into their mess.’Adrian knew that Samantha was concerned about him, so he replied, “Don’t worry, sweetheart. I haven’t had anything to do with the Xanders for a long time now. As of this moment, you’re the only one in my heart. Nothing else matters.”“Stop with that sweet talk.” Samantha scowled.“Okay, okay.” Adrian quickly switched his train of thought.Samantha burst out in laughter and shot Adrian another glare. “Hurry up and go shower. You stink. Also… Come sleep with me tonight.”Samantha’s voice was really low during that last sentence, and her face had turned red all the way down to her neck.She had

Samantha slept fitfully.It was most probably due to Adrian’s company.Samantha discovered that she was lying in Adrian’s arms when she woke up the next morning and her head was on Adrian’s arm.Her face blushed ever so slightly and she hastily sat up. She was afraid that Adrian would wake up and tease her.Samantha took a shower and put on a business suit. She went to wake Adrian after she was done.“Wake up.” She shook him gently.Adrian woke up and rubbed his eyes. His eyes lit up when he saw Samantha standing in front of him.The sight of her was breathtaking to him. She had a button nose and cherry-red lips and exuded a mature presence. Anyone who laid eyes upon her would not be able to help but stare at her because of her beautiful face which looked great from all angles.Adrian was no exception, of course.“Are you a fairy?” Adrian asked in a surprised tone.“What nonsense. Get up, quick. Mother has prepared breakfast.” Samantha glared at him.Adrian was becoming more

On the other hand, Adrian asked, “Who’s Danton Black?”Adrian wondered why he had encountered a number of people with the last name “Black” recently.Samantha explained, “Danton is from the Herbalis Group that belongs to Swallowston’s Black family. He’s also the father of Simon Black, Clara’s fiance.”Adrian was enlightened. ‘I see. It’s Simon’s father.’“Elara, please set him up in the reception room and I’ll be there shortly,” Samantha instructed Elara.“Sure!” Elara hurried off upon saying that.Adrian said to Samantha, “I don’t think Simon’s father is a good man. Have you met him to talk about collaborating before?”Samantha shook her head. “No. However, we can’t be biased just because he’s Simon’s father. Perhaps Danton is completely different from his son. He is the president of Herbalis, after all.“Herbalis is a pharmaceutical company. The medical field has always harbored good prospects and New Paraiso will be expanding to pharmaceuticals in the future.”Adrian nodded

Samantha was taken aback upon hearing Danton’s request.She said, “I’m unaware that my father-in-law left behind any information when he was still alive. I have no clue about this.”Samantha shook her head. She knew that Henry had been in the pharmaceutical business in the past, yet she had no idea that he had made any sort of breakthrough.“Samantha, you were still young at that time so it’s understandable that you don’t know about it,” said Danton.Then, he added, “Adrian and you were probably eleven or twelve when Henry was involved in this. His research lasted for seven years so he must have discovered something important.“Even though we have yet to develop a special medicine that can cure cancer at this point, I believe that Henry can help us avoid taking detours and shorten the timeline by a few years.“We need that data.”Samantha was very surprised and said, “Mr. Danton, I do not have the slightest clue about this matter. However, even if Henry did leave behind that kin

“Sure, we can ask her,” answered Adrian.Samantha silently ruminated over the matter.***Soon, it was time to get off work after bustling about in New Paraiso for the day.Samantha and Adrian went home eagerly.Dinner was almost done. Rue would have dinner prepared on time almost every day so that her son and daughter-in-law could eat as soon as they got home. She would cook different types of dishes every day and would always be thinking up new recipes.Samantha said to Rue over dinner, “Mother, I have something to ask you and I hope you will answer me truthfully.”“What is it, Sam?” Rue asked.“Did Father-in-law set up a scientific research team to find a cure for cancer in the past?” Samantha asked eagerly.Rue’s hand trembled upon hearing this. She instantly grew restless and replied brusquely, “Sam, why are you asking about this?”Sensing that there was something off about Rue’s expression, Samantha hastily said, “What do you know about it, Mother? Tell me.”“Sam, I do

Rue never expected that this matter from all those years to be brought up again someday.The majority of the participants from that time had already vanished without a trace.Rue kept the matter to herself and she was not prepared to tell anyone about it. Yet, she had not expected Danton would pay a visit to Samantha and ignite her curiosity like a fuse lighter.“Tell us, Mother!” Adrian could not refrain from saying again after seeing Rue’s miserable state.Rue wiped away her tears and said, “Your father told me to keep this matter to myself before he passed away. Adaline and you are absolutely not allowed to investigate this matter.“Adrian, there’s an influential person involved in this matter that we can’t afford to offend or contend with. Even if I were to tell you, you won’t be able to find him.”Adrian said, “I will mobilize the ten battle warriors and turn over all of Navia if I have to. Those who I seek won’t be able to run away for long. Just tell me!”Rue wiped her te
