Harold, Leonard, and Wilfred were instantly infuriated when they saw Adrian entering the mansion.
They bottled to their feet in unison.
Leonard pointed at Adrian and shouted, “Who gave you permission to enter, Adrian?! Get out of here right now!”
Adrian glanced at Leonard and made his way toward Harold.
He did not sit down but he said, “Grandfather, the Xanders have been rather close with Southrive’s River family recently. I’m here today to tell you…”
“What do you have to tell me?” asked Harold nonchalantly with a cold expression.
“I would like to tell you that the Battle Warrior Department has linked the Luposia incident yesterday to the Rivers. I recommend you keep a distance from the Rivers in the upcoming days. If they are found to have committed treachery, your family will be affected too.
“I know a thing or two about this situation so don’t say I didn’t warn you if things go south.”
Upon saying that, Adrian turned around and left, leaving the Xanders with no chance to scold him.
Leonard said angrily after Adrian left, “All he knows is boasting about nonsensical things. It’s obvious that he’s jealous of us.” “What sort of family is the River family? More accurately, even the Battle Warrior Department will have to consider the Rivers ‘influence in Southrive if they wish to eliminate them.”

“Our family is no longer affiliated with him,” said Wilfred
Harold said, “Go and prepare for the Rivers‘ investment matters.”
“Yes, Father.”
Leonard and Wilfred stood up and went to make preparations.

Samantha came home from work at night.
“Is Adrian home, Mother?” Samantha asked Rue.
Before Rue could answer, Adrian walked out of his room. He knew that Samantha was home after hearing the commation outside.
He asked, “How was work today, Sam?”
Samantha nodded joyously and put down her messenger bag as she said, “Riley and I paid a visit to the Battle Warrior Department today. Do you know what brought us there?”
“No,” answered Adrian.
“Take a guess.”
Adrian could easily figure it out. But as a wise man, he knew to never show that he knew the answer.

It was because when someone asked someone to make a guess, they did not wish for the person to give an ans answerer were to figure it out, how could the questioner continue to put on airs?
Adrian smiled and said, “I don’t know. I can’t figure it out.”
Samantha sniggered “Silly boy, how can you not figure out something so simple?

“New Paraiso will be setting up shop in Swallow Central so Riley and I went to submit the application at the department today.
“What I didn’t expect was that the people from the department would approve my application. This is the approval letter!”
Samantha pulled out a document from her bag that she passed to Adrian.
Adrian opened it and read it. Rue leaned closer to read as well.
Rue said, “It’s real. New Paraiso is really getting a spot in Swallow Central!” Samantha nodded as she beamed.
