In the next few days, not a single disturbance occurred in Swallowston.Swallowston welcomed a momentary moment of peace ever since the Byron and Luposia incident ended.On the other hand, the first guardian and chief secretary of Internal Affairs still could not be reached. There was speculation that these two people had secretly fled a long time ago.Swallowston’s Internal Affairs was taken over by the Battle Warrior Department.The Battle Warrior Department had been constantly busy with taking over Internal Affairs over the past few days so that they could thoroughly overthrow Internal Affairs.The situation caught the attention of Imperial City’s Internal Affairs but they would not be taking any restrictive action within a short period of time.This did not signify that the storm would remain calm for eternity.Adrian did not have anything much to work on over the past few days so he spent most of his time at home keeping Samantha company.Having tasted the sweetness of bei
An hour later, Adrian and his family arrived at the factory.Even Riley had come to support the event with some employees from the Xander Group. Vivian’s husband, Norman, and their son, Sawyer Thompson were there as well.The factory was bustling with all sorts of flower bouquets and fireworks arranged on the floor. Chuck wore a suit while Vivian wore a business casual dress, looking very seductive.The outside of the factory was bustling with noise and excitement.Upon Adrian and his family’s arrival, Chuck, Vivian, and the others approached them from afar. A car stopped outside the factory and Samantha, Joanna, Rue, Juno, and Adrian stepped out.A few people approached to welcome them.Samantha gave an envelope as a gift to Vivian and Chuck. She smiled and said, “Ms. Vivian, Chubbs, congratulations on the opening of your factory. I don’t have anything else better to give so I’m giving you an order worth three hundred and fifty thousand dollars as a gift.”Vivian was stunned
Chuck expressed his innermost thoughts in his speech.His eyes reddened and he could not hold his tears back as he spoke.Reiss, Riley, and Vivian applauded him.Chuck said to Adrian, “Adrian, I’m no good with words. Everything that I wish to say is in this drink, and I know how well you treat me. I’m not capable of anything but I will remember your kindness for the rest of my life.”Upon saying that, Chuck tilted his head back and downed his drink.Adrian made no reply.Samantha said on his behalf, “It’ll be good if you have a good life, Chubbs. Everything else is unimportant. Adrian hopes that you’ll have a good life from now on and he only did what was expected of a friend.”Chuck wiped away his tears.Meanwhile, Vivian stood up and said to Adrian with a smile, “I’d like to toast to you too, Adrian. You brought a gleam of hope to my life and you deserve this!”Vivian tilted her head back and finished her drink as well. It was apparent that she did not drink frequently so sh
Soon, Adrian and Samantha arrived at Central Hospital to have her checked out.Adrian, Rue, and Juno were waiting outside the ultrasound room. It did not take long before Samantha walked out of the room with an ultrasound scan image and she appeared to be low in spirits.Rue hastily asked, “How did it go, Sam?”Adrian was worried after seeing Samantha’s expression and he said, “What is it, Sam?”“Hahaha!” Samantha suddenly burst out in laughter and wrapped her arms around Adrian’s neck. She passed the ultrasound scan image to Rue.Rue laughed joyously upon seeing it and said in excitement, “You’re really pregnant? That’s great!”Juno laughed as well.Samantha loosened her grip over Adrian and said to him, “Dear, I’m pregnant with your baby so you’re going to have to treat me well from now on. Otherwise, I’ll give up the child!”Adrian felt like he was dreaming.Rue and Juno were hugging each other in delight and crying tears of joy. Rue had lived through hardships for so many
Adrian immediately grabbed the car keys and walked out of the house upon hearing this.He had not expected such ferocious people could still be found in Swallowston under such circumstances. If every person in the world behaved this way, what would be the point of Wyvern Peak’s existence?In truth, there were certain people that did not deserve to live in this world. It was an insult for them to be alive and a disrespect to other people’s lives.***Adrian rushed over to Vivus Clothing as quickly as he could. When he got there, Joanna, Reiss, Vivian, and the others were standing outside the door. Chuck and Norman’s faces were swollen. Adrian could tell that these people had been badly beaten.There were more than twenty people smashing things inside the factory to their heart’s content with their clubs at this very moment.“You’re here, Adrian.” Joanna ran over and grabbed Adrian’s wrist as soon as he got out of the car.She was scared out of her wits earlier. Those people sudde
The gangsters stopped and turned around to look in the direction of the voice.Elroy’s gaze landed on Adrian and he was instantly furious when he realized that Vivus Clothing’s people had called for reinforcements.He said angrily, “Who the f*ck are you? How dare you meddle in my business! Did you not hear that this is my territory?!”“Here comes another one who wants to get himself killed.”“There are just so many people wanting to die these days.”“Mr. Elroy, why are there so many deadbeats in this world?”Elroy’s subordinates walked over with their eyes narrowed and their hands fiddling with their clubs. They assumed the mannerism of men with high morality and heroic spirit.These gangsters enjoyed bullying the weak and feared the powerful. They had never suffered any major blowback so they had always assumed that everyone who was not a big shot would fear them.They had strength in numbers and the power to destroy everything.Elroy became even more arrogant with his subord
Elroy’s arm was severed from his shoulder.Everyone was startled because no one could predict Adrian’s next move.Out of shock, Elroy’s subordinates froze. They placed their clubs on the ground and were at a loss for what to do.Elroy’s howl rang throughout the factory and he was almost in tears. He never expected to lose an arm because of this. Arms were the most important part of the body and one would be a cripple if one were to lose an arm. Even if he were to beat up all these people here, he would not get his arm back.It was a great mistake made in a moment of weakness.Elroy had never encountered someone who would dismember an arm without any discussion. He had never come across someone like this before in his life.Meanwhile, the arrogant expression on his face had vanished and in its place was fear, confusion, and agony.“My arm, my arm!” Elroy burst into tears and wailed at the top of his lungs as he held his shoulder.His subordinates began to back away and witnessed
“I only smashed a couple of machines. Moreover, the machines still work so nineteen thousand dollars is already quite a lot of money,” Elroy said anxiously.“It’s one million and five hundred thousand dollars now,” Adrian announced.“One million and five hundred thousand?”Elroy was crying. He had not even made one million in profit after opening his factory for so many years, and now this man was asking for one million five hundred in compensation? He figured he would not scrape together that much money even after he sold the factory.He burst into tears for real this time. He never expected to get himself into trouble today. Moreover, he was in deep trouble.Elroy said anxiously, “I’m sorry, my friend. I’m at fault for not recognizing your mightiness. Let’s talk about the compensation another day, okay? Please let me get to the hospital first!”Adrian chuckled. “I’ve always been very strict in the way I do things. Either I get the money or I’ll break that other arm of yours. Ei
