Chapter 284


Samantha and Adrian walked out of the hotel, the former feeling rather dejected.


She had not expected Violet would become so grossly exaggerated in her actions that Violet would refuse to acknowledge her as a Cowell


Samantha felt miserable,


And after witnessing how Violet had handled the situation, Samantha was enlightened once again.


Barry drove while Adrian sald to Samantha, “Let’s not lower ourselves to the level of these idiots. Forget it. You still have me


Samantha glanced at Adrian. He could easily put this down yet she could not bring herself to forget the incident so easily. She simply nodded and said, “Okay.”


Adrian did comment any further on the subject


Samantha instructed Barry, “Take us to New Paraiso, I still have a lot of work to do.”

“Yes, madarn!” Barry answered.


However, It was at this exact moment that a reflective light was cast across Adrian’s face through the car’s window. This minute event made Adrian realize that something; irreversible was about to happen the next moment.


Adrian scanned the place using his peripheral vision. Then, he quickly said, “Barry, turn the car around. Head for the outskirts”


ΤΗ


Barry was stunned and slightly confused but he heeded the order. He immediately turned the car around and drove to Swallowston’s outskirts.


“What’s going on, Adrian? The outskirts are filled with unmarked graves. Why are we going there?” Samantha asloed in


puzzlement.


Adrian did not respond. Instead, he asked Barry who was driving, “Did you notice anything unusual, Barry?”


Harry shook his head and answered, “Everything looks normal to me, sir. Swallowston’s streets look no different than any other day. Why?”


“Look to the rooftops of the buildings right ahead and see if there’s anything unusual,” Adrian said.


Barry looked over, and so did the puzzled Samantha.


However, she did not notice anything unusual. She asked, “What’s going on, Adrian?”


Barry said, “I don’t see anything unusual either, sir.”


Adrian said in a teaching manner, “As a soldier, you should learn to determine a situation in your surroundings under any circumstances, Barry. This is because an enemy will always be hiding in places that you can’t see.


Now, take another look and see if there’s anything unusual on the rooftop,” Adrian urged.


Samantha and Barry took another glance upon liearing Adrian’s words. She said, “There’s nothing there. What did you see, Adrian?*


“Look again!” Adrian repeated.


Both of them continued to look. Suddenly, they noticed that something moved ever so slightly on the rooftop. However, they could not make out what it was due to the distance.


“Is there someone on the rooftop, sir?”


Adrian replied, “It’s the assassins from Black Hawlt”


“Black Hawk? Isn’t that the renowned assassin organization from foreign lands? How did you notice them, sir? They’re hiding so well that I can’t see them clearly,” Barry said.


“What? There’s nothing on the rooftop. Is it because my eyes are failing or that both of you are having issues with your eyesight?” Samantha furrowed her eyebrows and continued to stare at the rooftop


Adrian narrowed his eyes and said, “The Black Hawks have a non-fatal weakness. They like to observe their surroundings while they lie in wait.


“I noticed a reflective light earlier, and it came from the lens of a pair of binoculars. I observed and discovered that there are at least more than a hundred assassins lurking around this area,” Adrian said.


Barry frowned.
