Semua Bab The Return of the War Legate: Bab 351 - Bab 360

“Shut up, Adrian! This has nothing to do with you, you deadbeat!”Violet slammed her cane on the floor as she yelled.Adrian chose not to waste his time with the old woman out of respect for her seniority.Samantha then said, “I’m in a rush to get to the office, Grandmother. If it isn’t anything urgent, I’ll come and visit you when I get off work later.”Violet became furious. “Are you trying to chase me away?!”Samantha did not mean to do such a thing, but what could she possibly do if Violet was trying to pick a bone with her?“That’s not what I’m trying to do, Grandmother. I really have urgent matters to attend to at the office today so whatever it is you need from me, please just say it.”“Preposterous! Is that any way to speak to your grandmother?!”Samantha felt helpless, understanding that there was nothing she could do to Violet since the woman was her grandmother. Violet could do literally anything to her but she could not do the same in return.Just as Samantha had n

At the end of the day, Violet was Samantha’s grandmother, so she had no choice but to remain filial to Violet despite how unreasonable the old woman was being.After an entire day’s worth of hard work, Violet finally emptied out her old house and moved everything—even piles of junk—into One Jewel Road.Meanwhile, Rue helped clear out a room for Violet, who no doubt had a few words of insults to hurl at Rue for not clearing the room to her standards. Helplessly, Rue accepted all of the insults she received without a single word of complaint.It was not until five in the afternoon that Samantha and Adrian were done helping Violet move in.At that moment, Violet was thoroughly enjoying herself—sitting on the sofa as she ate a platter of fruits. To make matters worse, Samantha received a call from Joanna before she was even able to catch a break.“Are you done, Sam? You have to hurry to the office. Something major happened.”“Okay, I’ll be right there.”Samantha hurriedly put down h

After taking a look at the crowd, Daniel said, “Mr. Danton, the department is doing everything they can to investigate the murder of your son. Including the legate himself. We’ll be sure to find out who the murderer is and bring them to justice to avenge your son.“I’ve come here today to tell you all that the dead can never be resurrected so you must all stand strong and not fall at this moment.“The department shall be your strongest shield!”Daniel thumped his chest as he spoke.Danton then said, “I can’t take this… My son’s dead… I may have to take a step back for some time to sort out my emotions but I’m truly grateful for everything the department has done for me and my company over the years, General.”Daniel patted Danton’s shoulder before walking to the living room. Facing the crowd, he said, “Everyone, very few cases as brutal as this has happened ever since Battle Warrior Lucas took over. None of us could’ve ever expected such a tragedy to happen.“If any of you have a

Samantha sounded rather ferocious as she said, “I don’t care. None of you are going up there even if you want to. That’s a dating place for Adrian and me. I won’t let any of you sully it.”Clara sneered when she heard this. “A dating place? What a shameless woman you are, Samantha. None of us will ever want to go to a place as filthy as that anyway. Not when you’re spending your time there.”Samantha took a deep breath, forcing down her anger. She let off a cold snicker and said, “We both know who the filthy person really is, Clara. No matter how filthy I am, I’ve remained loyal to my husband. You, on the other hand, insulted Simon’s kindness with such a heinous act… Are you even ashamed of yourself in the slightest?”Clara’s heart dropped the moment Samantha brought Simon up, not daring to retaliate on that particular topic.Adrian immediately pulled Samantha aside, thinking that she would be ruining her own image by arguing with Clara.Then, he said, “Enjoy your meal. There’s st

Clara was the only one who behaved rather abnormally as she hurriedly defended herself. “Simon’s dead? What has that got to do with me? We aren’t even related.”Thus, began Clara’s defense.If she was truly unaware of Simon’s death, her first reaction to the news should be shock. Yet, that was not the case, which meant she was most likely aware of it beforehand.And now, she was trying to talk her way out of the matter, which would cause one to suspect whether she was indeed the culprit.“Judging by your tone, it seems you knew he was dead a long time ago. Am I right, Clara?” Adrian asked once more, causing the color to drain from Clara’s face.Suddenly, she seemed to have realized something and hurriedly said, “No, I didn’t. I only found out he’s dead when you told me. But what does his death have to do with me? I didn’t kill him!”Adrian had gone through many experiences so he was easily able to tell something was wrong with Clara based on her expression.‘She may seem calm an
