Chapter 177
Rue hastily walked over and asked, “Did you have a nightmare, Sam?”
Samatha grabbed a towel and wiped away the sweat on her face. She looked around for Adrian but he was nowhere to be found. “Mother, where’s Adrian?”
“He told me he had some matters to attend to and left.
“Why does he have matters to attend to every day? What the heck is he doing out there?” Samantha appeared to be infuriated.
Adrian had been away on business every day recently.
Rue had no idea what he was doing so she said, “Sam, you can ask him when he gets back.”

“Fine,” Samantha said, “Mother, I have to go to New Paraiso. Riley and Elara called me a few times. I have to go tell them that I’m fine.”

Rue said in a slightly worried tone, “Why don’t you stay home and rest for today instead of going to the company?”
Samantha grabbed her bag. “It’s fine, Mother. I won’t work till late today. Wait for me to come home to your cooking, all right?”
Rue let Samantha do as she pleased.
Samantha suddenly stopped just as she was about to exit the door and said, “Oh, please send Adrian to meet me in the company if he comes home before I do.”
“I will,’ answered Rue.
Samantha drove away from the residential area.
Samantha headed to New Paraiso while Adrian headed to the Battle Warrior Department.
It was critical for the department to acquire useful information from Beowulf through interrogation.
However, Adrian heard a voice when he was crossing the main road in the suburbs.
“The dignified War Legate Draco is traveling around on foot. Isn’t he afraid of becoming a laughing stock. if others were to hear of this?”
Adrian turned his head to look in the direction the voice had come from.
A young man was seated on the side of the pavement. He was leaning against the side of a lamp post and his legs were crossed.
Adrian was puzzled and he said, “How did you recognize me despite me keeping a low profile?”
The young man burst out laughing and said, “I’ve been watching you for more than a day or two. You may deceive others, but not me.”
As he spoke, the young man stood up. He walked toward Adrian with a bullish attitude and extended his hand. “Hello, legate. I’m Barry Co-”
Barry had just extended his hand when Adrian pinned him down and twisted Barry’s arm to behind his
back.
Barry was in so much pain that he hastily begged for mercy, “Don’t! That hurts. Please let go
of me.”
