Chapter 15

Had Adrian’s call really made the war legate send an invitation to the Cowells?

“Thanks to the legate. Thank you, General Summers.”

Violet gazed at the invitation. Her tears started falling as she put out her hand to accept it.

Daniel nodded and said, “Everyone here is invited. We’ll reserve seats for you. Have a good day.”

“Please see General Summers off,” Violet said.

Hugo and Nathan escorted Daniel out.

Everyone’s eyes were glued to the invitation as if they were in a collective dream.

“Grandmother, this is a genuine invitation!” Francis excitedly said.

“It is. The legate actually gave us an invitation!”

“The gods are smiling on us. We’re on the road to becoming one of the richest families in Swallowston!” Violet looked up and gave her thanks to the Heavens.

Samantha looked at Adrian in shock. Had this invitation really come because of his call?

However, Simon suddenly said, “Congratulations, Grandmother. Truth be told, before coming over, my father contacted the legate to ask for one of these. I thought we were going to fail, but I guess Father managed to pull it off.”
