Chapter 156 The husband and wife chatted for a long while on the drive. They got home at midnight, and Rue was already asleep. Samantha grabbed her nightgown and headed for the shower. Meanwhile, Cedric, who had his ribs broken, was lying in one of the wards of Southrive Hospital. His breathing sounded extremely weak due to his recent surgery. The rest of the Xanders were standing around in the room with furious expressions on their faces, especially Leonard. He was filled with boundless anger. Leonard paced back and forth in the room and roared, “Adrian is a f*cking b*stard! I’m going to kill him! I will kill him! I will not let him get away! Never!” Leonard was extremely shocked and furious that his son had been severely injured. He wished he could there and then.


commission a few people to kill Adrian ri “Calm down and cool your head, Leonard,” Wilfred said upon seeing Leonard’s angered state. “My son was beaten to this extent and even has a few broken ribs. He’ll need a year or two to fully recover. How am I supposed to stay calm knowing that?!” Leonard roared. Wilfred’s expression was solemn as well. It was fortunate that his son, Jacob, had not gone to the opening ceremony today. Otherwise, his son. might have ended up in the same condition as Cedric. Wilfred said, “Leonard, it’s useless for you to be angry right now. Let’s listen to what Father has to say, shall we?” The brothers looked toward Harold. Cecilia said, “Father, your grandson, Adrian, beat up your other grandson to this extent. You have to stand up for us, Father.”

Nevertheless, we won’t let him get away with beating up Cedric “However, I didn’t expect the Battle Warrior Department to show up today. Adrian would have already paid the price by now if not for them.” Wilfred nodded. “Father is right. It’s mainly due to the Battle Warrior Department showing up today. I have no idea what’s wrong with them. “There are so many criminal cases in Swallowston that they’re not investigating, yet they were there to ruin our family’s important event.” The Xanders inhaled a deep breath. Leonard said, “What should we do now, Father? It’s all Henry’s fault for having such a useless son. He’s the black sheep of our family.” Harold pondered for a short while and said, “The only thing we can do in this situation is to ask Jaden for help. If he’s willing to help us, it’ll be as easy as breathing for him to deal with Adrian, Samantha, and the rest. “Leonard, Wilfred, reach out to Jaden to discuss this matter in the next two days.” At the mention of Jaden, the Xanders were put at ease ever so slightly. Leonard said, “Father is right. We’re on the same side as the Rivers now. I shall get in touch with Mr. Jaden at once.” “Sure.” This is a good plan.” While the Xanders were talking, someone opened the door. Riley walked into the room and asked, “Mother, how is Cedric?” Claim Benus For Free Every Days*
