Chapter 194


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 Lupostans to lower their guard.


Daniel nodded upon receiving his instructions and said, “Understood, sir.”


“Arrange for a few men to pay a visit to the Luxury Hotel. Find out the situation there. Remember, they mustn’t be aware of our presence. Also, have a few men stay by Barry’s side. He’s a firsthand witness at the end of the day, so we must ensure his safety.”


“Understood.”


Without any further instructions, Adrian said, “Call me the moment you find anything.”


He then left the hospital and soon arrived home..


Rue was still sitting in the living room, finally able to heave a sigh of relief when she saw Adrian return. She headed to her room to get some sleep after asking Adrian a few questions.


Originally, Adrian was going to shower and hit the hay, but Samantha came outside and dragged him into her room just as he was standing belure the bathroom,


Samantha had already showered, but she was still awake. She sat by her bedside and seemed concerned as she asked, “What happened, Adrian? What’s your relationship with Barry?


“I know that man. He was a hostage like me when the Luposians took control of the Swallowston Business Hotel.”


Adrian nodded, “I know.”


“Then, you two arr…?” Samantha seemed confused.


Without hiding anything, Adrian replied, “Barry found out that the Rivers are the reason the Luposians managed to infiltrate Swallowston. He came to me and requested to be involved in the investigation because I used to serve at the Battle Warrior


Department.


“And he may have found something by accident. The Luposlans are hiding out in the Luxury Hotel, which is a chain owned by the Rivers. Although we now know that the Rivers are behind this, the department doesn’t have any evidence to arrest


then.


“Harry got made when he snuck into the hotel, which was why he was being pursued. ”


Samantha took a deep breath when she heard this. She looked at Adrian with a worried expression and said, “I want you to promise me something. You’ve already left the Battle Warrior Department, so I don’t want you to get involved in this matter.


“Let the department handle it, and I don’t want you investigating this matter behind may back.”


Samantha did not want Adrian to risk his life, especially when the Luposians are such a violent bunch.


“Who knows what might happen if he ends up in their crosshairs.”


Adrian nodded and replied, “Don’t worry, this is out of my jurisdiction anyway. But I couldn’t just watch Harry be pursued and

killed, could I? I’m sure he would’ve died If I hadn’t saved him.”


Samantha heaved a sigh of relief and pursed her lips. She was still unable to calm herself from all the worry she felt.


Seeling this, Adrian asked, “What’s the matter?!


Samantha plucked up the courage and said, “I can’t rest easy… Plus, your grandfather has ties to the Rivers.


“Promise me to never come into contact with your grandfather anymore.”
