“Cut the crap. If you want to kill me, then just do it!” roared Ivy.“Do you really want to die?” asked Adrian.Ivy stared at Adrian coldly and said, “You’ve destroyed our final hope. You’re a b*stard, Draco. Give me a quick death. Doing such nonsense is useless.”Adrian was amused. “What if I don’t kill you, but kill your sisters?”“Wh-What did you say?” Ivy’s eyes widened and there was a tinge of fear in her gaze.Ivy shouted, “Draco, how would you be any different from Internal Affairs’ Chase if you do such a thing? Kill me if you want. My sisters aren’t involved in this matter. Release them.”Adrian remained calm. “It’s possible that you don’t fully understand my temperament yet because it’s your first time truly interacting with me. You only need to answer my questions.”Ivy lowered her head and glanced at her sisters who were pinned to the ground. The redhead raised her head and cried, “We’d rather die than yield, Ivy! Let Draco kill us if he wants. We never had any hopes

Eira said, “Don’t be fooled by his sweet words, Ivy. He’ll never remove his mask and show his true face. Our lives are torture anyway, so we might as well die.”Ivy nodded and said nothing.However, just as Eira’s voice faded, Adrian reached up and removed his mask, revealing his face to Ivy and Eira. The women were astonished when they saw War Legate Draco’s true face, and their attention was fully drawn to it.It was a young face that looked to be less than twenty-five years old.Eira was astonished, and so was Eira. In their minds, they believed the War Legate Draco under the mask was more than thirty years old. However, the face underneath looked extremely young.Adrian said, “I don’t wear a mask to hide myself. Perhaps what I’ve done for the inland is for myself, but you’ve misunderstood me, and I can prove it to you.”As he spoke, Adrian removed his battle suit and exposed his upper body. Eira and Ivy stared at him and found his body covered in scars and healed gunshot woun

Joanna’s interest was piqued.She giggled and said, “Adrian, why do you want to turn the monarch into a figurehead? Are you trying to overthrow the government and build the Xander Nation?”Adrian glared at Joanna.She continued to giggle and said, “If you were to build such a nation and become its monarch, you’ll practice polygamy, right? If you do, remember to count me in. Samantha can be the queen while I play the difficult position of royal consort as best as I can!”“Hahaha!” Samantha burst into laughter at Joanna’s remark. “Stop talking nonsense, Jojo. The monarch’s last name is Nave, after all. How can a Xander become the monarch? Speaking of which, the current monarch is quite something. If he had even an ounce of intelligence, he wouldn’t have allowed Chase to do so many things right under his nose.”“That’s right!” Joanna answered in agreement.Samantha asked Adrian, “Dear, I believe you have it all figured out, right? If you turn Novemton’s monarch into a figurehead, th

Adrian and Mya got back in the car, turned it around, and drove toward Yelloton Hotel.They arrived soon after.The place was bustling with activity. There was a crowd of friends and family gathered in the hotel lobby. It seemed as though the wedding ceremony had already begun and the sound of an emcee’s voice was heard coming from inside the hotel.Adrian and Mya got out of the car and strode into the hotel. The wedding was taking place in the hotel’s ballroom and the Snows’ friends and relatives were all seated. The newly-wedded couple and two more married couples were seated at the head table.The wedding emcee was making a blessing speech in a joyous manner.Adrian and Mya did not approach the Snows right away because the wedding was currently ongoing. Instead, they found a place to sit.Mya said, “That’s Wiley, and I believe that the older couple seated next to him is Megan and Joel. They looked like rather honest people.”Adrian nodded and the two fell silent. They planned

However, just as Megan was about to lose all hope, Adrian stood up from the crowd and made his way to the head table.Under the puzzled gazes of the guests, he came to a stop before Megan. She, too, was puzzled by the sight of this stranger.Adrian bent down and looked at the sixty-year-old woman with a frown. Then, he stretched out his hands and helped her to her feet.“Young man, wh-who are you?” asked Megan.Joel and Wiley were looking at Adrian in puzzlement as well. Everyone at the scene was staring at him.Adrian turned around and narrowed his bright eyes ever so slightly as he said to Buck, “Buck, correct? Your uncle works for Yelloton’s Internal Affairs, yes? I’ll only tell you this once. Take your men and get out of here. Also, return that land to the Snows. If you don’t do as I say, I promise you that you’ll die here today.”“I’ll only say this once. You have five seconds to leave, and your time starts now…”Adrian’s gaze held steady.Buck looked him up and down in co
