Chapter 193

“Do you think he got away, Mr. Jaden?” asked one of the bodyguards.

“F*ck! He runs fast… Go, find him!” Jaden yelled, “He can’t be allowed to leave here alive!”

After that, the group began searching for Barry once more.

Adrian finally released his hand from Barry’s mouth when Jaden and the others were gone.

Barry heaved a sigh of relief and said, “Sir, y–you have to arrest that guy. He’s faden Rivers from the River family from Southrive, and something’s fishy going on with that luxurious hotel of theirs!”

Adrian simply looked Barry up and down. “Are you hurt?”

Only then did Barry realize he had been shot in the back.

“…” Feeling the pain creeping up on him, Barry’s face turned extremely pale.

“Didn’t I tell you to stay away? What were you doing there? The Battle Warrior Department will investigate this. You shouldn’t be meddling in their affairs.”

After Adrian said that, he quickly brought Barry away from the roof.

Samantha and Rue had waited for approximately seven minutes before Adrian came back to them with another man

“Adrian!” Samantha called out when she saw Adrian and hurriedly got out of the car.

She was then shocked when she realized who the other man was. “It’s you!”

Barry greeted her when he saw her, “Hi there, Ms. Samantha.”

Samantha looked confused, but Adrian said, “He’s hurt, Sam. We need to take him to the hospital”

“Okay, get in.” Samantha got back into the car without asking any further questions and sped off toward Swallowston Hospital

On the way there, Barry panted heavily as he bird out from his injury. However, the gunshot wound was the last thing on his mind as he said to Adrian, “Why didn’t you arrest them, Legat–Master? I’m sure you could’ve easily taken them down.

“Also, you have to inform the Battle Warrior Department to arrest everyone in that hotel.

Samantha became curious when she heard this. She turned around and asked, “Master? What’s he talking about, Adrian? And what happened back there?”

Adrian said to Barry, “I’ve told you many times already. I’m not your master. Also, when are you going to learn to not meddle in affairs you should steer clear of?”

Harry replied, “I know I shouldn’t get involved in this, but I wanted to prove to you that I’ve got what it takes to be your apprentice.”

Adrian was left speechless, while Samantha anxiously asked, “What’s going on, Adrian? Why is he calling you ‘master?‘ Do you two know each other?”

Adrian smiled and said, “I just met him myself. He heard about me from somewhere and wishes to be my apprentice, but I’ve already told him that I have no intentions of taking on any apprentices. Also, the people who were after him back there were most likely Luposians.”

“L–Lupasians? I thought the legate had gotten rid of all of them. There’s still more?”

“Beowulf was just one of many. The fact he’s able to infiltr wanted to. There’s nothing to feel surprised about,” Adrian replied.

After that, he turned toward Harry and said, “I’ve told you very clearly that the Battle Warrior Department will handle i

“But I- Barry was still about to say something, but Adrian cut him off.

“No buts. You’d be long dead if I had gone home a few seconds earlier. This isn’t worth sacrificing your life over. Didn’t say your parents want you to make a name for yourself? You should be choosing your own path.”

“But I found a connection between the Rivers and the Luposians, and they’re in that hotel back there. I’m sure we’ll be able to arrest them all if the department storms the place,” Barry said.

“Are you an idiot?” Adrian continued, “Even if the department goes there now, it’s already too late. They must’ve fled the place the moment the first shot was fired, or do you think they’re absolute idiots who will stay there and wait to be arrested?

“Also, so what if they do arrest Jaden now? What could they possibly charge him with? Is there any evidence of him colluding with the Lugosians? This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.
