Ivy giggled. "They curse you and your entire family every single night! Okay, I'm kidding. I've never seen them so happy. Every day is like a fresh start for us. Now that we've got this job, we feel incredibly happy whenever we catch a criminal" she said."Congratulations on finally reclaiming your lives," Adrian said sincerely.Ivy smiled. "Congratulations to you too. We've met your daughter, and she's a really cute one. You may become history in the future, but me and my sisters will always work hard for Swallowston's sake. We'll make sure there are no more criminals in this city. This job is now our dream, and we've never been happier. In fact, a few of us have even gotten into romantic relationships," she said as she chuckled.Adrian, on the other hand, was slightly stunned. 'They're in relationships?'He clicked his tongue and said, "You ladies sure move fast. I'm surprised you've managed to find boyfriends that quickly. Tell me, who are the ones in love right now?"Ivy ponde

"It's an inevitable fight," Adrian replied as he nodded.Gloria continued, "We’d be at a disadvantage if they team up during the fight. If we look at the entire situation, they’ll probably try to stop our men out at sea, effectively making it a naval battle."Adrian pondered for a moment.Meanwhile, Samantha curiously asked, "I thought the purpose of this expedition was to defend Isle 416 so that our scientists, doctors, and research groups can conduct their field investigation. What will happen if they’re surrounded by enemies?"Adrian twitched his lips. "If I were in their shoes, I’d start a fight after Wyvern Peak has entered the island. Over the years, countless people have sent men to Isle 416, but they'd all be killed by the worms. So, they're going to study whether our men can survive on the island or not. In other words, they won't attack until they're sure about what's happening.""If they attack us on the island, the environment could be used to our advantage. However, y

Samantha said, “Also, even if you’re not doing this for them, think about your grandfather. His health is deteriorating by the day and he’s aging. You can’t take care of him so someone else has to care for him. I’m just going to say this bluntly. If he were to pass away someday, he wouldn't have even one of his children by his side.”Adrian cracked a heartfelt smile and stretched out his hand to caress Samantha’s face upon hearing her educated and reasonable remark.Samantha rolled her eyes at Adrian in a gentle manner. “You can finally move on from the burden in your mind now, right? Gloria and I have already discussed and agreed that we won’t make things difficult for you. Where else are you ever going to find a good wife like me?”“Thank you, Sam,” Adrian said, “Gloria doesn’t have any other choice, and I don’t want to abandon her.”Samantha answered with an “mm-hm” and replied, “Yes, my war legate. I understand what you mean. All right, let’s not talk about this anymore. Do you

The steel mill of Skyton Prison was brightly lit and the sounds of steel smelting were heard coming from the inside. Prisoners would be assigned to work in the steel mill if their physiques were up to standards. Even though the closing time had already been set, there were prisoners who would work overtime endlessly so they could get a sentence reduction.Meanwhile, two middle-aged men and two young men were lifting a gigantic steel plate strenuously in the steel mill. The four of them joined hands to lift the steel plate with great effort. They were exhausted, drenched in sweat, and breathing heavily.“Be careful!”“Okay, okay!”“Put it down here!”Clang!The four of them loosened their grip in unison and the steel plate was placed at a suitable spot. The two young men immediately sat on the ground. They were drenched in so much sweat that their clothes looked like they just came out of a wash.One of the young men wiped his tears and said sobbing, “Father, Uncle Wilfred… I mis

Both of them sat in front of the sewing machines and swiftly sewed clothes as they chatted away.Cecilia exclaimed, “Faye, we’ve already been in here for a year and a half. We’re sentenced to five years, yet I don’t know if Adrian still hates us. He’s War Legate Draco and is capable of keeping us in prison for the rest of our lives with just an order.”Faye replied, “Yeah… If only we were nicer to Samantha in the past, we wouldn’t have ended up like this. We assumed that Adrian wanted to seize Paraiso Group, but in reality, he could not be bothered about those measly things.”“So what if he wanted to seize it? Paraiso Group belonged to Henry anyway. Why were we such b*stards back then? Now that I think about it, I feel really bad for doing that.``Cecilia said, “You’re so good at looking on the bright side. Our lives here aren’t considered overly arduous. Leonard told me that they were working in the steel mill the last time we met. Do you think the two children can endure the hard
