Chapter 626
Chase was holding a conference with the higher–ups of Internal Affairs at the Novemton headquarters while all this went down.
“Sir, we’ve just received word that the men who gathered in Southrive have now surrounded your family residence,” a voice on the phone said.
Chase was completely stunned when he heard this.
“What did you say?! Wyvern Peak has surrounded my family residence?!”
“Yes, sir. Right now, Lennon and the others are outside talking it out with the men from Wyvern Peak, but we still don’t know why your house was surrounded.”
“Nonsense!” Chase yelled, “I’m the chief secretary of Novemton’s Internal Affairs! How dare War Legate Draco orders his men to surround my family!
“You there! Get me a helicopter! I’m going to my family right now!”
Chase instantly ended the conference and furiously stormed out of the conference room after yelling out his orders.
After that, a chopper flew out of Novemton toward Southrive.
Meanwhile, the situation at the Gardner residence was still a huge mess, with Lennon leading everyone else outside, both young and old.
At the same time, a car stopped right outside of the main entrance as Adrian, wearing his battle suit and mask, got out of the
car
“Sir!”
The generals of Wyvern Peak guarding the Gardner residence called out.
After that, Mya walked over and said, “You’re here.”
Adrian’s hands were stuffed into his pockets as he gazed at the house. “What’s the situation?”
“Lennon Gardner and the others returned home ten minutes ago through the rear entrance, but our men didn’t stop them. Our comrades at Novemton just informed us that Chase Gardner is currently on his way here in a helicopter and is expected to arrive within the next three hours.”
“We’re not waiting for him,” Adrian said.
After that, he silently strode into the Gardner residence. Yet, before he even stepped through their main gates, a masculine and tough voice echoed from the courtyard, saying, “You had better know your place, War Legate Draco! Our family has always been law–abiding citizens, so when have we ever offended Wyvern Pealt?”
Following the source of the voice, Lennon could be seen rushing over with the rest of the Gardners. His eyes were filled with fury as he glared at Adrian with a displeased expression.
Adrian stopped and observed them, while Mya introduced, “Sir, this is Lennon Gardner. Chase’s third brother.”
Adrian had never seen Lennon before, so that was new knowledge to him. “Lennon, I trust you know what your elder brother’s been up to, right?
“I’m here for only one purpose, which is to take what I want. Don’t worry. None of you will be harmed in the process.”
“What a joke!” Lennon continued, “I know you’ve always been at odds with my brother, War Legate Draco. However, I’m warning you. The Gardners are a family that has no relation to Internal Affairs whatsoever. So, if you’d like to go up against my brother, you should charge through Internal Affairs‘ gates rather than raid our home.”

Adrian shook his head, causing Lennon to turn toward Mya. “Ms. Mya, I’ve always had nothing but the utmost respect for your father, but your actions today might cause our families to become everlasting enemies.”
“Mr. Lennon, you truly are an interesting man. However, I’m not acting on the Deans‘ behalf today, but Wyvern Peak’s. The legate has already said we’re only here to take what we want and that none of you will be harmed in the process.”
“What do you want? What could we possibly have here in our residence that you’d want? Don’t you think you should come up. with a better excuse, War Legate Draco?” Lennon said coldly.
Adrian felt helpless as he said, “I think you don’t loow what your brother’s been doing, Lennon. I’m not here for what you
but for what Wyvern Peak owns.
Own,
“I’ll have my men retreat from your family residence the moment I’ve gotten what I want.”
