Adrian merely smiled and chose not to answer Adaline’s question.Instead, he said, “Just focus on your studies, okay? You shouldn’t live your future as an ordinary woman. I’m counting on you to take care of our family.”Adaline felt touched by Adrian’s words. When he first returned, she thought that her elder brother had achieved nothing over the past seven years. But she now realized that the truth was far from what she imagined.Not only was he able to drive a luxury car, but he was also able to have people like Lucas Jenner and Daniel Summers come to his aid.Adrian was the one who had arranged everything that had happened thus far.‘I honestly have no idea who Adrian is now, but one thing I know for sure is that everything will be different from now on.’***Two hours later at Swallowston University, one of the top reputable universities throughout Southrive.Adrian and Adaline pulled up in the gray Porsche. His million-dollar car attracted a lot of attention from the stude

Adaline was about to follow a senior student from the reception counter to complete the admission procedures when Adrian took her to the university’s main office building instead.Curious, Adaline asked, “Why are we heading to the office when the dorms are over there? I can handle the rest from here, so I think it’s about time for you to leave.”“I’m going to introduce you to someone. I’ll leave once I’ve helped you settle down.”Adaline remained silent, not knowing to whom Adrian was going to introduce her.When they arrived at the office building, Adrian brought Adaline upstairs and headed straight for the chancellor’s office. However, there was no one inside the office when they entered.“Let’s sit here for a while.”“Adrian, what are we doing in the chancellor’s office?” Adaline seemed tense.‘The chancellor is the one with the highest authority in a university!’ she thought.“Let’s just sit and wait for a while.” Adrian then sat on the sofa and picked up a magazine to flip

Adrian left Swallowston University after getting Adaline settled in.Meanwhile, Adaline followed her senior from reception to the dormitories to begin her student life. However, what affected her was not her new university environment.Instead, it was the sudden changes in her life.She thought she and her mother were going to have to worry about their finances for the rest of their lives, but Adrian had clearly been making changes to their situation from behind the scenes.Right from the moment the luxurious Porsche showed up, Adaline realized she had completely failed to estimate just how much money Adrian had.But there was one thing she knew for certain—her elder brother had already surpassed their father in the seven years that he had been away.***Meanwhile, Adrian drove off in the Porsche and arrived at Bailar.Samantha was having a meeting in the conference room at the moment, so Adrian sat around in her office since he had nothing much to do.Soon, Samantha returned

This was why Samantha decided to compete against Nelson, despite his character.***The pair arrived at Nine Kings half an hour later.A sea of people was already there. Many companies had their proposals in hand, waiting to participate in the bidding process.“Sit here. I doubt our turn will come anytime soon. I’ll go get you a cup of water.” Adrian pulled Samantha toward a chair, and the latter nodded.She still found it a little uncomfortable how caring Adrian was toward her.Adrian came back and passed Samantha a cup of water before sitting down and playing a boring video game on his phone.Many people around them were chatting with each other, but Samantha was all alone. It seemed as though she was having a hard time joining the group.On top of that, based on her current status, she herself felt that nobody would be bothered to interact with her.At that moment, a few people walked in, attracting the attention of those already there.“Hey, isn’t that Mr. Nelson?”“Is h

Adrian’s sudden remark shook Samantha so much that she rushed over to cover his mouth, hoping he would not say any more.But it was too late to remedy the situation.Quite a few people turned over to look at Adrian, while a huge frown spread over Nelson’s face.“Who are you? How dare you speak to me that way. Do you have any idea who I am? The boxing champion of the underworld is my brother!”Rick Kramer, Nelson’s little brother, was indeed the boxing champion of the underworld whose influence far exceeded Nelson’s.On top of that, Rick had a band of helpers. Thus, quite a few people began laughing at Adrian.“Does he not know how ruthless Nelson is?”To these people, Adrian was a sitting duck.Samantha hurriedly apologized and said, “I’m really sorry about what my husband said, Mr. Nelson. Please accept my apology.“Adrian! Hurry up and apologize to him!”However, not only did Adrian not apologize for what he said, but he simply leaned back against his chair and went back to

‘Adrian’s gone way overboard with this!’Samantha was disappointed in Adrian. She thought he would be of help if she allowed him to tag along, but it looked as though he was on one of his bluffs again.“Excellent. I like your spunk. Wait right there. I’ll wipe that arrogance off your face!” Nelson shot Adrian a sneer and said, “I’m interested to see how you’ll fare against my little brother.”Nelson then made a call, telling Rick about everything that happened and urged him to hurry to the scene.Seeing that security was walking toward them, Nelson yelled and said, “This is a personal matter! Stay out of it. I’ll handle this!”The guards remained silent, while Nelson stared at Adrian and said, “Ten minutes and my little brother will be here with his fighters. They’re going to break your legs!”Adrian remained silent throughout the entire ordeal and carried on playing his game.Samantha’s heart was literally about to jump out of her throat.With a slight whimper, she asked, “Wha

Despair, fear, and all sorts of emotions welled up inside Samantha, causing her to suffer a mental breakdown.Rick marched toward Adrian. The entire situation had gone out of control, what with his men surrounding the entire place.Nelson was still laughing away, thinking he was about to enjoy watching Adrian suffer.Meanwhile, everyone else was looking on with smiles on their faces.“Samantha’s husband is a dead man.”“Exactly! He’s going to have his legs broken and will have to pay the Kramer brothers a huge sum before this is over.”“What makes you think either of the brothers needs the money? That’s obviously not true.”In everyone’s mind, Adrian had signed his death warrant today.***Rick stopped before Adrian with a menacing look on his face. “Were you the one who hit my brother?”Samantha hurriedly tugged at Adrian, wanting him to apologize.However, Adrian raised his head and said, “That’s right.”“Have you gone mad, Adrian?!” Samantha cried. “Why are you being so

Nelson turned stiff and his smile froze in place.Everyone who thought Adrain was a dead man gaped with their mouths wide open.Samantha was covering her mouth. Her face had a look of awe as she gazed at Adrian.‘Did he just send the underworld boxing champion flying?’Nobody could believe what they just witnessed.Rick was a highly reputable man who had become the champion of the underworld boxing ring dozens of times. Yet, at that very moment, the same man was crying his heart out because of his broken hand.“I-Impossible… Impossible!”Such was Nelson’s first reaction.He heard a ringing in his head and his scalp tingled as he stumbled onto the floor, flabbergasted like everyone else.***Adrian stood tall, exuding a temperament of authority as a powerful war legate should. His aura was so strong that it was enough to demand obedience from everyone around him.The crowd began to retreat in awe.Adrian was like an emperor. Maybe even more powerful than an emperor. He was a

‘Help?’Everyone including the Kramer brothers was stunned.‘Nelson and Rick are clearly the victims here, yet Liam’s asking whether Adrian needs his help?!’Meanwhile, Samantha felt her head spinning from the shock.Adrian merely replied, “Give Daniel a call. I don’t want to hear the Kramer brothers’ names being mentioned in Swallowston ever again starting today. Also, I want the Kramer Group to be erased from existence.”Liam took a deep breath before he said, “I’ll inform him right away.”“Oh, also…” Adrian continued, “I want all of the men Rick brought with him erased as well.”Adrian’s orders fell like the rumbling of a thunderstorm. All of the men Rick brought with him who were behaving arrogantly a moment ago were dumbfounded. They were there under the impression that they were going to teach someone a lesson. Yet now, they were going to be turned into cripples.Like dominoes, these people fell to their knees and cried.Without a moment’s hesitation, Liam summoned all o

Adrian smiled at Samantha and asked after everything was over.He reached out to caress Samantha’s face, but she suddenly took a few steps back until her back was against the wall. Her eyes were filled with fear. She trembled as she stared at Adrian.“What’s the matter, Sam?” Adrian asked in confusion.Samantha bit her lips. She could not explain why, but she knew that she was terrified of Adrian. In fact, she could not even look him in the eye.Adrian instantly understood what was happening when he saw this. Hence, he took a deep breath and dispelled all of his negative emotions.It was only then Samantha was able to calm herself, no longer feeling as terrified as before.Indeed, she had suffered quite the fright today.Adrian said, “I’m sorry for scaring you, Sam. Everything’s okay now.”Samantha was finally able to pluck up her courage to look at Adrian when she realized that he had returned to normal. She then leaped into his embrace, wrapping her arms around his neck.“Yo
